about reality blurred

Welcome! I’m your host, Andy, and I created reality blurred 25 years ago as a blog to collect interesting links I found about reality TV.

Today, it’s home to a wide range of writing about entertainment rooted in real life, from competition reality shows to true-crime documentaries, and a vibrant community of pop culture fans.

As a writer who obsessively and critically covers reality TV, focusing on how it’s made and what it means, I review and recommend reality TV shows; analyze news and report from behind the scenes; and interview people who create and star in reality TV shows.

I believe pop culture can both entertain and affect us, so reality blurred’s goal is to celebrate and amplify the best, hold the worst accountable, and talk about it all.
