Reality TV and unscripted shows have an advantage in the coming months as dramas, comedies, and other scripted series face major delays

And content like this will have an advantage as the year moves forward and even into next year.

Unscripted shows are largely easier to plan for during this time of uncertainty. For instance, the most recent season of the singing competition "American Idol" wrapped up with contestants singing from their homes. Scripted shows, which require cast and crew to be on set, don't have that luxury. The effects could last well into 2021. TV commissioning is down by 40% in March through May compared to the same time period last year, according to the report.

'Reality TV' is far from unscripted..just scripted loosely enough to let generally horrible people act like imbeciles for airtime. You could always look to content creators working in streaming media for new content, but then the Big Studios gets mad because they dont 'own' it.

F that B, she led him on REAL bad, poor bastard.
