Reality show? Please no.

Admittedly, there have been a few good and genuine (read: not staged) airline reality shows such as Airline USA (basically, it's about the daily expereinces of WN agents across the nation at their work. Gate agents all the way up to district managers, it is very fascinating show) which you can tell isn't staged as it gets quite gruesome at times, such as the Chicago PD tackling and tazing a super - drunk guy at MDW for trying to shove his way past a gate agent and board a flight when he was being denied on grounds of intoxication, etc...

But I can't, if I had to be true to myself, see any sort of genuine content in a The Points Guy reality show. But that is moot anyhow, as most reality TV is not genuine ( a very small percentage are) and is staged. So by that definition, TPG and his existing content will fit right in!
