UnREAL is an American drama television series that premiered on Lifetime on June 1, 2015.

Reality shows are often full of drama, but in the case of dating show “Everlasting”, there may be more drama behind the scenes than there is in front of the camera. Executive producer Quinn commands her staff to get dramatic and outrageous footage for the show, which forces young producer Rachel to manipulate the relationships among the contestants to get the show’s final cut to match Quinn’s vision of it. As the show’s featured singles look for their dream mates, staff members deal with their own romantic predicaments behind the scenes.
