REWATCH - Is UnREAL Actually Real? Ep 1


Listen Later

Ever wondered if the dark, behind-the-scenes world of UnREAL is anything like the reality of making a show like The Bachelor? As a former producer on shows from Dancing With the Stars to Married at First Sight, Liv breaks down the first episode of the iconic Lifetime series to separate fact from fiction.

In this deep-dive re-watch, you'll learn:

  • Walkie-Talkies vs. Headsets: Why a showrunner would never use an open walkie on a high-stakes shoot.

  • Life on the Floor: You may have heard of producers being ‘on the floor’, but do they really LIE on the floor to get the shot?!

  • The Art of the Note: How producers soften a harsh note like "be more charming" to get the best performance from a cast member.

  • The Unbreakable Rules of Production: Why losing the main star or lacking a signed contract is a logistical nightmare that would (spoiler alert) never happen on a major show.
