TV Take: Has the Target Demo graphic for 'Love Is Blind' Outgrown The Emotional Maturity of Its Contestants?/A History of Dating on Reality TV
<p>This isn't really about Love Is Blind. Well, it is a little, so skip the first 5 minutes if you haven't seen the reunion.

I take a look (with some rambling) at the history of dating on TV, how it's shaped Millennials' perspectives of what dating looks like, and reality TV dating shows are going to struggle to connect with their aging audiences if they keep casting people under the age of 28.</p> <p><br></p> <p><a href="https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/harsh-reality-the-story-of-miriam-rivera/id1594927287" target="_blank">Harsh Reality</a>: The podcast about "There's Something About Miriam", the most offensive and outrageous show in Dating Reality TV history. </p>
