Best Reality Shows on Netflix Right Now (October 2018)

Ranking the 50 best reality TV shows on Netflix.

Reality TV for me began with The Real World on MTV more than 20 years ago and since then we’ve seen the genre blow up with shows like Survivor, Big Brother, and dozens of food and do-it-yourself shows that are all over cable.

While shows like The Real World, Survivor and Big Brother aren’t available to stream on Netflix, there are plenty of other great reality TV shows you can stream on Netflix today.

Whether you prefer food shows, home renovation shows or nature and travel documentaries, Netflix has every genre of reality TV covered for you.

So sit back, relax and open Netflix to watch the 50 best reality TV shows Netflix has to offer.

Unfortunately, new licensing deals with Netflix has seen the majority of the reality TV shows leave the streaming service, including all of the shows from The Food Network, Cooking Channel and HGTV.
