Revealed: The Reality TV Show With The Most Applicants
Let’s face it, we’ve all seen at least a few episodes of reality tv and at some point probably pictured ourselves on a show or two. Maybe you’ve even tried out for a show or submitted an application. But have you ever wondered what reality TV show gets the most applicants? We finally have an answer! It turns our Survivor is the show that the largest number of American’s apply for, followed by The Bachelor and The Amazing Race.
The study, which was conducted by Uswitch, used Google search data to find which shows attract the most applications. Survivor averages 79,200 searches for applications each year. And considering the show’s ultimate winner walks away with $1million in prize money, so it’s no surprise. In second The Bachelor, with 43,200 application searches, and in third, The Amazing Race, pulls in 34,800 searches a year from people wanting to appear on the show. Personally, Survivor and The Amazing Race are a little too intense for my taste, I’d take my chances with the drama of The Bachelor any day.

Finding true love can be hard, so it’s no wonder many people turn to a dating show to help them find their next partner. Shows like this are also one way to establish as a social media influencer which no doubt impacts many reality tv show applicants. The Bachelor is by far the most popular dating show to watch and to apply for. It’s also no surprise the show’s spin-off, The Bachelorette comes in second. In third, is the new kid on the block on the reality TV dating scene, Love Island.

The Game Shows That Americans Apply For The Most
Now, this is a category I could see myself looking into. Don’t Forget The Lyrics and The Price Is Right are both shows I could do some serious damage on. But it’s Family Feud that takes the cake here. Originally airing in 1976 it is the game show that Americans want to appear on the most, pulling in more than 8,000 application searches a year. And if you’ve ever watched, or played, Family Feud I can understand why. That game is FUN! Supermarket Sweep generates almost 6,000 searches each year from would-be contestants wanting to take part in the famous sprint through a supermarket, and the third most popular game show to apply for is Wheel of Fortune, with just under 6,000 application searches annually.
