The Most Exciting Reality Shows Ever Made

The best reality TV shows ever aired are some of the most exciting series to watch on television, but which are the most exciting reality shows of all time? Determining which reality TV series is the most exciting isn't an easy task given the plethora of options available, but this list might make it just a bit easier. These days, with the use of digital streaming, more and more shows people have forgotten are being rewatched, checked out for the first time, or even remade into new classics for new generations to enjoy, but which of these reality shows are the best of them all in terms of excitement?

Would something newer like Bear Grylls: Face the Wild land higher on the list than a classic survival series like Survivorman - or do both pale in excitement to reality series that follow nerve-wracking professions like Deadliest Catch and Cops? For a reality series to be truly exciting, it has to be the kind that depicts either a situation with real consequences for failure, or realism that truly makes the viewer feel like the people on the show might be in actual danger... because, sometimes, they are!
