UnReal redeems itself in Season 3 after its disastrous Season 2

TV Guide

Based on the first five episodes of Season 3, the Lifetime reality TV-inspired drama is back and better than ever, says Liz Rafferty. "In Season 3, UnReal has returned to feeling like a drama infused with purpose and importance, but that's also ridiculously fun and entertaining to watch," she says. "The show's writers couldn't have known it would be airing at the height of the #MeToo and #TimesUp moment, but real-world headlines make the events on the show seem all the more, well, real."
