It's the 2000s again! VH1's 'The Surreal Life' to Reboot

If you were near a TV in the early to mid-2000s, you probably remember the many reality TV shows that dominated MTV and VH1. From dating shows like "Parental Control" and "Next" to ones with a celebrity focus (we're looking at you, "MTV Cribs"), reality TV has been an entire moment. And although it's 2022, VH1's "The Surreal Life" is making a comeback.

Originally airing from 2003 to 2006, “The Surreal Life” centered on a group of celebrities as they lived together in a Hollywood Hills mansion for two weeks. Think: "The real world" but with celebrities. Over the years, the show has had many notable guests, including Vanilla Ice, MC Hammer, Tammy Faye Messner, and Flavor Flav. Following Flavor Flav's on-screen romance with co-star Brigitte Nielsen, the show famously inspired the spin-off series "Flavor of Love," which aired from 2006 to 2008.

As 16 years have passed since 'The Surreal Life' ended, the new reboot should be just as juicy and entertaining as its many predecessors. With plenty of drama and a new cast that includes August Alsina, makeup guru Manny MUA and NBA legend Dennis Rodman, the show will take you back to basics.
