Summary |
UnREAL is a darkly comedic drama that delves into what really happens behind the scenes of a hit reality dating show. It's a world where producers check their ethics at the door as they exploit contestants' vulnerabilities and desire for fame, all for the sake of huge ratings.After suffering a mental breakdown, Rachel, a young staffer, reluctantly returns to work on a dating competition show called 'Everlasting', where her sole job is to manipulate the contestants in order to get the vital dramatic and outrageous footage the program's dispassionate executive producer, Quinn King, demands.What ensues is a humorous, yet vexing, look at what happens in the world of unscripted television, where being a contestant can be vicious, and producing it is a whole other reality.
