Around the world, many television shows have stopped production due to recent strikes by the Screen Actors Guild-American Federation of Television and Radio Artists. This leaves many fans with nothing to watch or look forward to. However, there are still some shows airing, thanks to competition-based reality television.

First, it’s a refreshing break from other new reality TV releases like “Love is Blind.” There’s no brattiness or catfights, and you can safely watch “Jury Duty” knowing that the whole thing being scripted is part of the fun, not just a way to force an otherwise boring show to be more interesting.

Next time you’re taking a break and scouring your streaming services for something to watch, though, give reality TV a chance. Its lighthearted, competitive, down-to-earth nature might be just what you need.
