New year, new me! LOL, JK. It’s, like, the summer and I’m still watching trash television instead of doing all the things I promised I’d do in 2019. Thankfully, there are plenty of brand-spankin’-new reality shows to binge. Here are the best ones to premiere this year so far.

The Masked Singer

Shout-out to whoever was like, “You know what? Singing competitions are good, but they could use better costumes.”

This reality show truly bends reality by having celebrities compete as mysterious characters.

Lindsay Lohan’s Beach Club

The Bachelor better move on over, because Lindsay Lohan’s Beach Club is coming for its spot as the most dramatic reality show yet.

The premise is pretty self-explanatory. Lindsay Lohan has a beach club in Mykonos...and a camera crew goes around and captures all of the hot-mess moments.

Dating Around

Netflix’s new dating show Dating Around takes the stance that when it comes to finding The One, you should look for quantity over quality. A single person goes on five first dates in each episode to find someone worthy of taking on a second date.

Temptation Island

Four couples go to Temptation Island to see if they’re meant to be together...by DATING OTHER PEOPLE. Like, right in front of their significant others. It’s very yikes, but it’s also very great TV.

Made in Staten Island

MTV Made In Staten Island
MTV

MTV’s Made in Staten Island is about a bunch of ~youths~ who are growing up with their crime families in...you guessed it, Staten Island. The series is produced by Karen Gravano, the daughter of infamous mobster Sammy “The Bull” Gravano. (You probably know her from VH1’s Mob Wives.)

This show is probs way more dramatic offscreen, though, as it has suddenly stopped airing after just three episodes. Like, nobody knows where it went.

Songland

We’ve got the Jonas Brothers! John Legend! Meghan Trainor! TBH, this NBC songwriting contest has so many hit artists coming in that it’s hard to keep track.
