Okay, so this is the point where you may start to judge me on my taste in television. However, I don’t care, I am happy to admit that I love my fair share of trashy, IQ-eroding reality TV shows, game shows and dramatic soap operas. I even once bought Geordie Shore star and Queen of the Jungle Vicky Pattison’s autobiography on a whim! I also met Geordie Shore star Charlotte Crosby in a nightclub once, but I never got a photo with her. I want to go up to Newcastle and meet the entire cast of Geordie Shore. Doctor Who star Matt Smith once confessed that he was a fan of Geordie Shore! Over the years, I’ve watched many of the programmes produced by MTV, the music channel that doesn’t seem to produce any music. My favourite sports are also featured in the videos below the table.

As popular hit Love Island returns to our screens for its seventh summer series, it’s time for me to run through a list of my favourite reality TV shows, game shows and soaps. This list is not a ranking and these shows are presented here in no particular order. But my favourite reality TV show is Geordie Shore.
