Next hit reality show

Okay I have several ideas.

Real Housewives: Generations
Most of the women in this franchise have children and I can say that because I've seen at least a little of each of the iterations of this show. Now these shows have been going on long enough that some of the children are 18 and some are even in their 30s because they started off this show as teenagers. Can you imagine if there was a show that was just the children of some of the housewives? Think of all of the past and history that could be brought up on these shows (and you know how the real housewives like to bring these up). What does Gia have to say about that crazy christening? Does the next generation follow in the feuds of their mothers? What family drama is there? Do Lauren and Lexi speak when their mothers don't? Anyways, I just think this is going to happen one day because I don't see this franchise slowing down at all and so many of the children are of the right age group now or will be of the right age group soon. So get ready to see those kids you saw as adorable, bright-eyed children flip tables and call each other bitches.

Are You the One?: Everyone is Bi
So Are You the One? was once great trash TV. I loved it dearly and watched it habitually. I think a season where everyone is bisexual (or pan or queer or whatever as long as they could potentially be matched with everyone else on the show) would be epic. MTV fans would be fine with their being queer people on their reality TV so I don't see a fall out there. Now, there would have to be a few things to make the game easier for the contestants as their would be way too many possibilities. One option could be more truth booths, but I think an interesting one could be telling how many couples are two men, how many are two women, and how many are a man and a woman (e.g. if there will be 10 couples total, the contestants could be told that there are 4 couples that are a woman and a woman, 3 that are a man and a man, and 3 that are a man and a woman). I think this would help give them enough data to actually win the show as the contestants losing the show is just a huge bummer. Anyways, get it together MTV, give us the newest iteration of 'the game' that we all actually want (seriously, not even letting the contestants pick whom they go on dates with, what the hell?)

90 Day Fiance: Gay Couples
As my latest addiction in reality TV, I have been thinking a lot about 90 Day Fiance. One thing I've noticed is that they show hasn't had a gay couple on the show yet. Come on, TLC, you are missing a huge opportunity here. I feel like there could be some really interesting stories in how different countries view gay couples (maybe even in some of the countries people are immigrating from same sex marriage isn't legal?). Do these couples face extra hurdles (whether technically or just in reality) in the visa process? Do these couples struggle even more for acceptance from their families? How do gay communities vary from country to country? There is so much potential in this. A whole season of gay couples would be great, but I hope TLC at least gets one gay couple on this show. It's just silly that they don't have one yet.

If anyone has any connections, think about making these happen (but please give me credit and some cash would be great :P). I think they'd do well.

Starting my parental journey, part 9

You can  read part 1 here ,  read part 2 here ,  read part 3 here ,  read part 4 here ,  read part 5 here ,  read part 6 here ,  read part 7 here , and read part 8 here . I've officially begun my second cycle. On Wednesday, I had a virtual appointment, yesterday I had my baseline ultrasound, and today I began injections again. On Wednesday, I expressed my concern about my weight and was told not to fret about it for this cycle but that I should work on it for my health. I got told some vague things about measuring my food by volume and weight and that being the key the weight loss (idk it sounded weird to me). But other than that my appointment went well and I really liked the PA I met with. Overall, she was supportive and encouraging me to advocate for myself. Yesterday, I had to get up earlier than normal (6am) so I could make it to my ultrasound at 7am (I have asked for future ultrasounds to be at 8am). I got weighed (ugh), had my blood drawn, and t...

Starting my parental journey, part 8

You can  read part 1 here ,  read part 2 here ,  read part 3 here ,  read part 4 here ,  read part 5 here , read part 6 here , and read part 7 here . I have begun birth control again. Now, that may sound like I'm bailing out of my fertility journey, but it's actually the opposite. In order to get everything ready for the egg retrieval, I need to hop on birth control for a little bit and then hop off. It feels a bit odd to be taking oral birth control, have a birth control arm implant, and be getting ready for an egg retrieval--but that's how it goes (for me at least--getting to keep the arm implant is rare or so I'm told). People have asked me how I'm feeling about this round of egg retrieval and honestly, I haven't thought about it much yet. I am focused on a big stressful event for work and then C2E2 (Chicago Comics and Entertainment Expo--basically, Chicago's Comic-Con) which I attend every year. Because of these two events (one stressful, one fun), I del...
