Good list as usual. I do wish that the descriptions were a bit more in depth. Some of them felt a little vague. I also will say that I'm SHOCKED that the guy who was on "Megan Wants a Millionaire" that killed his wife was not on the list. That caused the network to cancel the rest of that show, Season 3 of "I Love Money" and caused the end of all of the "Of Love" shows.

Cant wait for part 2-100 because you know there is so many when it comes to dating shows

You missed the proper #1. “Megan Wants A Millionaire” getting cancelled mid-season because a contestant killed his girlfriend and committed suicide. Not only that, but it caused I Love Money season 3 to never air. That’s two shows that got taken down on the back of this.

The Miss Great Britan incident is another example of society punishing women for their sexuality

Does anyone else remember the short lived dating show, "Megan wants a Millionaire" that was pulled from the air halfway through because one of the contestants murdered his wife and then killed himself?

Yes, can't really argue about Rodney Alcala at number one.

I expected anything Big Ed did

What about "Who Wants to Marry a Millionaire?". He had financial issues, had previously had a restraining order against him, and he lied about a lot of things from the last time he performed as a comedian to even his real name.

The last segmento, Lady's instincts were better when she decides Alcalá was " creepy"😱

Wow, the Dating Game hosting a real killer! Super creepy! Smart woman contestant to cancel the date because he seems creepy. You're alive because of your smarts with that good decision! This Ms. Mojo reminds me of why I avoid the dating genre of television.

Interesting thanks for sharing these

Didn't Colton came out as gay a few years later? I'm guessing his inner struggle about his sexuality was responsible for part of his erratic behavior

“I wanted it to be Love is Blurry” is forever an iconic, messy line lmao. Hate that guy, though. Funny quotes though.

Honorable mention to Blind Date from the UK, where a journalist went undercover on the show and was outed on TV by host Cilla Black

"We hope we never see Shake on TV again." House of Villains: "Hold my beer."

Just starting but if Ryan Jenkins & murdering his wife then going on an international escape attempt before committing suicide isn’t #1 I don’t know what you’re thinking.

I'm shocked the whole joe millionaire show wasn't on here, lol.

I feel like Jonathan from Amazing Race should have gotten a dishonorable mention at least for one of the most uncomfortable reality TV moments when he was verbally abusing Victoria for losing. Ooof. So uncomfortable

How about on the Bachelor Australia when Blake Garvey chose Sam Frost, but then dumped her after the final aired for second runner up Louise Pillidge. Apparently the producers made him pick Sam, but he was really in love with Louise, so he waited until the show had aired and then dumped Sam for Louise. He and Louise only ended up lasting 18 months.

Wait where is "Megan wants a millionaire". Literally one contestant, ryan may have killed his girlfriend then killed himself forcing vh1 to end the season prematurely and not air i love money 3 and killed off the entire i love..... franchise

.umm what about Megan wants a millionaire? .one of the contestants killed his gf, stuffed her body in a suitcase & they never played the rest of the season because of it

The dating game is a truly classic game show from the 60's,but that one was a huge scandal,for game show fans everywhere.

📺 THE ENTIRE SHOW "Dating Naked" (2014-2016)

I was looking for a “Top 10 Best Dating Shows” list. In the 90s and early ‘00s there was a glut of blind dating shows and I was hooked on *several.*

I used to watch my. Brother and me in years is it on dvd 📀

I'm surprised Bachelor and Bachelorette lol

Well, for one, Chris Harrison getting fired (thanks to Rachel Lindsay)

The Bachelor(ette) has got to be the dumbest reality show ever made. I don’t understand the whole concept. The “contestants” are clearly sleeping with the bachelors. This is why I don’t watch reality TV.

Can’t believe they didn’t put New York fighting scenes on here

Are you gay or straight should've been on the list. Dating show where a woman had to elimimate contestants and find out if they were gay or straight. She had to try and not pick a gay man at the end. Glad it only had one season. The way the gay men were treated was awful.

Hi

❤️❤️❤️

Rodney was the Ted Bundy of Game Shows

The #2…

decent video

what about i love money a whole season was scrapped because of a murder

I wish they would bring Unreal back that was a good show

R.I.P miriam rivera

Wow absolutely nothing from America's Next Top Model. America's Next Top Model alone could fill up this entire list. I thought Tyra flipping out on Tiffany at panel would've made the list or the scandal surrounding Saleisha's eligibility for the competition or Angelea's mysterious "disqualification. What about Amy's Baking Company on Kitchen Nightmares that episode caused plenty of controversy. What about Extreme Makeover: Home Edition? Flavor of Love should be here as well.

2 choice was definitely a bad concept and a big mistake and misconception about Transgender women and men

Oh man, Are You The One? Is my favorite dating show ever. This just ruined it for me. But then again the seasons after the 6th are not good.

Shake was an ass.

You might want to mention that Colton later came out as gay which might explain his odd behavior Also no most bachelor fans were in support of Chris Harrison and were not ok with him getting replaced so that’s completely wrong and it was Rachel Lindsey who HEAVILY pushed for him to be replaced

you just have to add blind date season 2 brazillian version (called "casamento às cegas") in which a male contestant rejected the marriage proposal as soon as he saw that he was dating a fat woman...seriously, that was the most disgusting thing i've ever seen in any reality. and now outside of the show the fatphobic guy's dating the girl he previously rejected (which is *surprise!* thin)

Jersey shore wasn’t even on the list holy shit

RIP, Queen Elizabeth.

Let's be honest, we all knew what number 1 was.

I believe the lady from the bachelor lol idc

There’s nothing “inappropriate” about what Rozalyn did

Where's Megan wants a millionare???

woaaaaaahhh the miram one thats not sa shes a woman yes shes trans but she has a lady bits shes not obligated to tell u shes trans and it disgusts me that they filed a law suit for sa and bodily harm

😯

Chris should have never of been fired from "The Bachelor/The Bachelorette" franchise. That was so stupid, and I haven't wanted to watch either franchise (not that its good anyways).

Chris Harrison wokeness rant was based

Megan wants a millionaire needs to be here

Colton also is gay so that’s probably why they didn’t work out just saying

Straight people okay?

don't refer to it as 'the treatment of miriam rivera' implying she was the victim. she duped all those men and on national tv. thats fucked up and she doesnt deserve any sympathy for that

For crying out loud people. These shows are SCRIPTED!!! All reality shows are. 🙄

You know what my Mom and I are very furious about that whole entire Chris Harrison and Rachel Kirk Connell controversy! The way that they both were treated was so entirely unfair! We are all for blacks and we are against people who are racists but we also feel like the Black Lives Matter movement takes things way too far! It's a huge world out there! Everyone can have an accidental moment of being racist even when they don't know much about racism or blacks or someone gets drunk and says things that they don't mean or believe in! Like what had happened with Morgan Wallen who was also a victim in all of this! :( Yet they get cancelled and is viewed like they are a villain like everyone in this world is absolutely perfect when it comes on down to racism and that is not fair! Why does it just have to be Black Lives Matter anyways? Shouldn't it be All Lives Matter? This video here says that everyone in this world agreed that what Chris Harrison did was wrong but my Mom and I both are part of the world that doesn't agree! My Mom and I stand by Chris Harrison all of the way! He said the very words was it a good look in 2018 or is it just a good look in 2021? We perfectly understand where he is coming from! In 2018, The Black Lives Matter movement was not trending yet it was in 2021. Also due to the pandemic everyone was way too overly sensitive with absolutely anything for lots of things and people were unfairly cancelled that year. Also sadly The Black Lives Matter movement was trending. We are extremely proud of Chris Harrison stepping down as host because we don't want him to get more attacked than he already unfairly is. We always loved Rachel Lindsey but what she did with Chris Harrison was so not fair on so many levels. Rachel Kirk Connell partied in that racist place having no idea what it was till that controversy came on. She's a good person who made a mistake and that's why Chris Harrison was trying his awful best to stand up for her but of course oversensitive people when it comes on down to racism don't even look at the bigger picture and throw them to the wayside! Heck Rachel Kirk Connell even so apologized! Isn't that enough?! :( My Mom has been a big huge fan of The Bachelor and The Bachelorette show for so many years but after what had happened with Chris Harrison and Rachel Kirk Connell she no longer watches the shows anymore. We get the absolute fact that the shows didn't have any black leads over the years till Rachel Lindsey but we understand the fact that it had absolutely nothing to do with racism. It more had to do with the fact that the Bachelor or Bachelorette was chosen before because they had the ratings go up higher in each show like what had happened with Rachel Lindsey. But, of course, why are there more black leads in the shows now? It's not because of who they are it's because of the fact that the shows want to promote black people now and show that they are now woke. Wouldn't it be far more important for that black person to be on the show because of who they are and not just because they are black and the companies behind the shows want to make themselves look good? That controversy was so not fair at all and I have questioned my favoritism feelings for Rachel Lindsey ever since. She will always be one of my favorite Bachelorettes but after what she despicably did to Chris Harrison unfairly judging him I don't like her as a person anymore and neither does my Mom. :( Felt extremely good getting all of that off of my chest! XD

God loves you and he wants to save everyone, but in order for him to do that, you need to repent and be baptized. Also share his gospel with everyone you come into contact with and keep his commandments.

Your take on what happened with Shake is so off
