- Reality TV is a huge part of the television landscape today.
- CableTV used Google Trends data to figure out what the most-searched reality TV show was in every state in 2017.
- Long-running shows like "The Bachelor" and "Dancing with the Stars" were popular in many states, but newcomers like "Hunted" also took some states by storm.
According to Vox, 750 reality TV shows aired in 2015, and that number is only rising.
So it's no surprise that the genre also took over Google last year. CableTV used Google Trends data between October 2016 and October 2017 to find out what reality TV each state was Googling the most last year.
While some pairs make sense, like Texas and "Little Women: Dallas," others don't have an obvious connection, like New Hampshire and "Long Island Medium."
