Sequels and Spin-offs

This week I am going to discuss sequels in reality television shows and other reality television shows being developed from previous ones. This would be something like American Idol or the Real World, where a show appears on television and then a year or so down the road, there is a sequel where the same show appears with different characters or something to that effect. American Idol has aired on television for eight years now and Real World has aired for 22 seasons. Now shows that have been developed from previous shows would be where a new story line is created from the old one or a character from the previous show starts a show similar to that show. The Real World is similar to this having shows called Real World Road Rules.
For this topic I am going to use the show called Flavor of Love as my example to explain this. Flavor of Love is a show where Flavor Flav’, a famous bachelor, is looking for a love in this world through having contestants, all women of course, come onto his show to try to impress him enough to be called his girlfriend. Well, he finds a love but it does not work out for him or her so he has another show called Flavor of Love 2, sequel. This show is the same but with different contestants. Then, once again his relationship does not work so he does Flavor of Love 3. A contestant from this show then creates her own version called I Love New York. The contestant, New York, has guy contestants compete for her love. Like the previous show, her relationship did not last so she had a sequel, I Love New York 2. Now, two contestants, Chance and Real, from the show I Love New York create their own version of the show called Real Chance of Love. This show is similar to both the previous two except it involves two guys, each looking for love.
Like you can see, a famous person starts a show and makes one of his contestants famous by calling him/her boyfriend/girlfriend but someone else even more famous by giving them the opportunity to make their own name on their own show. What a great world we live in!
