December 26th 2023.
It has been an eventful year in the world of TV. We have seen the return of Big Brother, the ending of one of the best TV shows ever written, Succession, and the juggernauts Strictly Come Dancing and I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out Of Here! continuing to entertain us. There have been reality TV bust-ups, festive soap episodes, and of course, live TV blunders.
One moment that sticks out this year is the Scandoval. Tom Sandoval had a shock affair with co-star Raquel Leviss which left Ariana Madix, his girlfriend of nine years and Raquel's best friend, completely broken. Viewers then became detectives watching season 10, which was filmed before the betrayal was exposed. Bravo reacted quickly to make sure we didn't miss out on a second of drama, picking up the cameras again to capture the fallout.
Kim and Kourtney Kardashian also had a dramatic year, beginning when Kourtney married Blink 182 drummer Travis Barker in Italy. Kim used it as a business opportunity and this accusation led to a lot of back-and-forth. It all reached a climax when Kim confessed she had a group chat that was used to discuss Kourtney called 'Not Kourtney.'
Netflix capitalised on the success of their thriller Squid Game and came up with a reality show based on the format. 456 people competed in multiple rounds of childhood games in a bid to become the sole winner and pocket $4.56million. Spencer Hawkins, aka Player 299, was pushed to his limits during the cookie-cutting game and was eliminated when his ink pack exploded. It was deemed by some viewers as the 'most dramatic reality TV' exit of all time.
Big Brother also had a dramatic year, when Paul started tormenting the partygoers and branding them 'd***heads.' Trish wasn't having any of it and shouted 'bully' back at Paul, while still doing the limbo!
Finally, one of the biggest shockers of the year was the death of Logan Roy in the third chapter of Succession. Nobody expected Logan's death so soon in the final season of the show, and while Logan's death had been anticipated at some point, most fans had believed it would happen at the very end.
It has certainly been a memorable year of TV, and we look forward to what the future holds!
It's been quite a year in TV, with reality TV bust-ups, accidental blunders, and one of the best festive soap episodes of all time. We've seen some truly wild moments that we'll never forget. From Tom Sandoval's Scandoval to Kourtney and Kim Kardashian's low blows, let's look back at the top 10 maddest moments of the year.
At number 10, Tom Sandoval elevated reality TV when he cheated on Raquel Leviss with her best friend Ariana Madix. Viewers then became detectives as they watched season 10, which was filmed before the betrayal was exposed. Bravo even went the extra mile to make sure we didn't miss out on a second of drama, picking back up the cameras to capture the fallout.
Coming in at number 9, Kourtney and Kim Kardashian dished out low blows to each other. It all seemed to begin when Kourtney married Blink 182 drummer Travis Barker in Italy last year, and Kim used it as a 'business opportunity'. The two had a lot of back-and-forth, and Kim even confessed to having a group chat called 'Not Kourtney'. The drama reached a climax when Kim said they had to "figure out why [Kourtney] had this vendetta".
Number 8 was Squid Game: The Challenge's most dramatic reality TV exit of all time. 456 people competed in multiple rounds of childhood games to win $4.56 million, and Spencer Hawkins pushed himself to his limits. Unfortunately, when his ink pack exploded indicating he was eliminated, Spencer collapsed to the floor. It was deemed by some viewers as the 'most dramatic reality TV' exit of all time.
At number 7, the Big Brother housemates argued while doing the limbo. One half the house was treated to a party, while the rest had to watch on from upstairs. Non-attendee Paul made his feelings known, and Trish shouted back with the bizarre addition of limbo-ing at the same time. The heated exchange resulted in the late-night live feed being shut down.
And finally, at number 6, Succession killed off a major character much earlier than viewers were expecting. In the third chapter titled Conor's Wedding, Logan Roy died in his private jet. While his death had been anticipated at some point, most fans had believed it would happen at the very end of the series.
It's been quite a year in TV, and we can't wait to see what 2021 brings.
