Quarantine & Chill: Feel-Good Reality TV Shows That’ll Help You Escape The Situation IRL

I don’t know about you but I love watching reality TV shows. And no, I don’t dismiss any of them as ‘guilty pleasures’ (including Bigg Boss). They’re great when you need a break from all the drama in the real world, especially right now when we are all cooped up inside our houses right now. The fourth edition of the lockdown was announced earlier this week with a new set of rules. And it looks like, we’re going to have some more extra time in hand, which also means that we have some time to ‘Netflix and chill’ while we wait for a brighter tomorrow. And I say that we all need some feel-good viewing in our lives RN.

So why not watch Nailed It to find some comfort in the fact that it’s not just you making failed attempts in the kitchen. Work from home may have killed your summer dressing dreams, but you sure can take inspiration from Next In Fashion.

In The Simple Life, hotel heiress Paris Hilton and Lionel Richie heiress Nicole Richie get out of their comfort zone.
