Reality TV is more popular than ever. With so many to choose from, here are some of the best reality TV shows to stream or watch right now.

Mark Is Already A Fan Favorite

Reality Steve said that he has nothing against Mark, buthe wondered if it was"kind of unfair"to the other men because the audience is going to rally around himbecause they already know him from Joey’sBachelorseason. They’re not going to know any of the other contestants on Joan’sGolden Bacheloretteseason. However, Reality Steve added that"it could be a win-win for the show.“He emphasized that he’s not saying that Mark will win the show, but he definitely has an advantage because everyone wants him to find love.

Reality Steve is correct thatMark will be an audience favoritewhen he appears onThe Golden Bachelorettebecause everyone already knows and loves him. However,it’s ultimately Joan’s decision if she wants to be in a relationship with him or not. While there’s always been speculation that theBachelorfranchise producers force leads to keep contestants on the show for ratings, there’s no proof that this is really true. In fact, duringThe Golden Bachelor, Gerry Turner eliminated former Bachelor Matt James' mother on night one despite a lot of hype about her being on the show.

Joan and Mark have a lot in common. They’re close in age, as Mark is 57 and Joan is 61. They both lost their spouses fairly recently. Joan’s husband, John, passed away in 2021 due to pancreatic cancer after 32 years of marriage. They are also both parents to adult children. It would be very sweet if they found love with each other. Whether Mark ends up with Joan orhe eventually becomes the next Golden Bachelor,he deserves to find the love that he’s searching for.

The Golden Bacheloretteis scheduled to air Wednesdays at 8 p.m. EDT in the fall.
