1. Catfish

Catfish: The TV Show is probably the least "trashy" reality show on my list. At first, I thought it might be a bit much, but the concept of filming people in online relationships is genuinely fascinating. Many viewers get deeply invested in these stories, hoping that the people they’re talking to are truly who they say they are. It’s also one of those shows that people of all ages seem to enjoy watching.

2. Dance Moms

Here’s another show that is surprisingly good for all ages. I often watch Dance Moms with my whole family, and we all get a kick out of it. While the yelling and intense drama can get a bit much, there’s something genuinely entertaining about the competition aspect. I also really enjoy watching the young women dance and seeing the different routines every week. I’m not surprised that a lot of people have strong opinions on this show, but I can’t help but love the talent on display.

3. Be Good Johnny Weir

I absolutely love Johnny Weir! For those who don’t know, Johnny Weir is an iconic figure skater. The show Be Good Johnny Weir follows his life, whether it’s skating, singing, or any of his other creative ventures. Johnny and his family and friends are all hilarious to watch and so entertaining. He’s often been called the Lady Gaga of figure skating, but I think his personality is entirely unique. I wish there were more episodes to binge!

4. The Rachel Zoe Project

Rachel Zoe is wonderful. She’s so funny and has given me and my mother so many little catchphrases that we now use in our everyday conversations. While there are some people in her life that can be a bit intense, I still love watching her navigate the fashion world. It doesn’t hurt that I also get to see stunning couture in every episode. As a stylist turned designer, seeing her dress celebrities for the red carpet is definitely worth the more dramatic moments.

5. The Real Housewives of OC

Yes, I admit it, I watch the Housewives. I know it isn’t always "prestige TV," but I can’t help myself! I usually avoid drama and conflict in my own life, but I find it strangely relaxing to watch it unfold in someone else’s. These women have so much drama that there’s never a dull moment. While I certainly have my favorite (and least favorite) characters, I still tune in every time it’s on. I get really invested in their lives—maybe a little too invested!

6. It’s a Brad Brad World

This is a fantastic spin-off of The Rachel Zoe Project. Brad Goreski was one of my favorite people on Rachel’s show, so seeing more of his life and career in It's a Brad Brad World is so much fun. There isn’t quite as much chaos in this show as there was in Rachel’s, but I love them both equally. It definitely helps that there are even more gorgeous clothes to admire. Who doesn’t love looking at expensive, high-end fashion?

7. The Real Housewives of NYC

This is the only other Housewives series I regularly follow. I’d say that OC and NYC are some of the most classic entries in the franchise. I can never decide which one I like better, but watching the NYC ladies is a lot of fun since I live in New York. When I pass places in the city and recognize them from an episode, it’s such a fun "I know that spot!" moment. I’m not necessarily proud of how much I love this show, but I just can’t get enough of the Big Apple energy.

Everyone loves a little guilty pleasure TV every once in a while! I try to act like I don’t get sucked into the reality TV trend, but every so often a show just pulls me in.
