Survivor o G.

Speaker 2 (00:35):
Yeah. Do you remember a show called The Real World
and they put a bunch of people it was like
before Big Brother. They put a bunch of people in
the sort of the apartment of their apartment that is
Big Brother on there no Big Brothers, not even in
the top filf.

Speaker 4 (00:46):
They had a problem on a New Zealand, an American
show that was filmed recently in New Zealand. Here that's
so a waker.

Speaker 2 (00:51):
Yeah about so the Real World makes the listen number five.
It's basically before Big Brother. Was big. It's the same
sort of concept. They put a bunch of people in.
I think these famous actors at the time as well
as back in the nineties.

Speaker 3 (01:02):
Is it celebrity Get me out of here? Is that
one of them?

Speaker 2 (01:05):
No, it's not.

Speaker 5 (01:05):
That's not even on there because apparently that's really big
in the UK.

Speaker 2 (01:10):
Yeah, yeah, Idle I would have American American Idol is
number four on the list. It's Real Will number five,
American Idol number four. We're Surviva Survivors number one. Yeah,
the greatest reality show of all time.

Speaker 3 (01:22):
Idols not higher up, you're the same.

Speaker 4 (01:25):
They got talent now, that's because because it'll be it'll
be a show like that where there's cheers. Turn around,
what's someone called the voice?

Speaker 2 (01:30):
The voice? All of those singing shows, not only Idol
is the only singing show on the old have thought
got talented?

Speaker 3 (01:35):
Then it was the o G, wasn't it.

Speaker 2 (01:36):
Yeah, that's right your way back.

Speaker 3 (01:38):
Something's better than Idle.

Speaker 2 (01:40):
Pop Stars was like we started that for me and
New Zealand.

Speaker 4 (01:44):
Jonathan Dowling was the producer of that show, said at
New Zealand sold it, and.

Speaker 6 (01:54):
What's it to do with give us a clue? Fashion
Project Runway. No, that's the other and it's like that.

Speaker 2 (02:00):
RuPaul's Drag Race. Is that it's a three on the
list of the greatest reality TV shows of all time,
So we've got number one.

which I think would be up there.

Speaker 6 (02:31):
I've got it, give us a close it a relationship.

Speaker 2 (02:33):
One, No, but it would test relationships a lot. Was
the show The Great Race, The Amazing Race? Phil Cogan? Yeah, yeah,
KII Filla hosting it. That is that is to me,
that is the greatest reality show. You recks on so
many levels. They travel. The relationship is teested, it's a
treasure hunt, it's a scaven jehann it's again, it's it's
trying to think through puzzles, it's physical, it's everything.

Speaker 5 (02:53):
I think Survivors in the right spot there because Survivor
was the original sort of reality TV.

Speaker 6 (02:58):

surviving out in the wilderness, and the.

Speaker 5 (03:27):
News not surviving naked and afraid as they just.

Speaker 3 (03:32):
Show and then they get picked off the genitalia. What
they get what they literally?

Speaker 2 (03:38):

Speaker 3 (03:49):
Woman. That's because you've got to take your leaves.

it up before you go on. Which square would you
dread the most coming off?
