#I've enjoyed other romcoms set in reality TV land

I don't know how long I'll be able to keep watching Love is for Suckers. It starts off by hitting all the right romcom notes, and I am such a fool for the best friends to lovers trope! I got very excited about the drama very quickly, enjoying their more-than-friendship, their virtual cohabitation, their chemistry. But the last half of episode 5 absolutely dragged for me as they started filming the reality TV show. I really loathe almost all reality tv, and meeting all the characters was just sooooo boring. 5 episodes in, and you're asking me to care about nearly 10 more side characters? I don't care about them. I hate manufactured drama. I hate this kind of reality programming. Ugh. I'm going to start ep6 right now, so here's hoping it's far more focused on character development for the main leads and is only peripherally set in the reality TV show they're filming.
