When it comes to reality television, it's no secret that the Kardashian family currently have the market cornered.

And while the family's show – and the numerous spin-offs it has had over the years – are often considered a guilty pleasure by the viewing public, that hasn't stopped them tuning in in their millions every week…until now, that is.

While countless are continuously fascinated by the world-famous family's most elusive member, Rob, it seems they're not quite ready for his solo endeavour.

And with the official sneak peek for his reality show –  featuring fiancée Blac Chyna – dropping yesterday, the public took to Twitter in their droves to slam the programme.

Commenting on the trailer which shows the tension which exists within Rob and Chyna's relationship, one Twitter user wrote: "This whole show is just wrong!"

"What's with the violence and drama: if he's texting someone else… Break up!"

"All aboard for the train wreck!" wrote another while someone else commented: "Yup. This teaser is proof that civilization is doomed."

"Seriously? Who the f**k cares about these two a-holes?" questioned yet another.

Luckily for Rob and Chyna, not everyone will feel the need to switch over once it becomes a TV regular.

Some members of the public know that a dose of reality TV when you have the Sunday Night Fear is the only thing for you.

We're with her on that one.

It's been 12 years since the release of Mean Girls, and yet we still find ourselves quoting lines from it on the regular.

From muttering 'She doesn't even go here' when a colleague is banging on to thinking 'So you agree, you think you're really pretty' when someone accepts a compliment a bit too quickly, the teen flick has clearly become engrained in our generation's conscience.

And while it obviously spoke to us on an emotional level, us Irish ladies are not as familiar with the various cliques which exist in American high schools.

But Dublin? Dublin, we know.

And that is why the latest offering from YouTube and Facebook comedian, Enya Martin, has struck a chord with thousands of us this week.

Shared on her Giz a Laugh Facebook page, Enya parodies Mean Girls, and offers all of us an insight into how the film might have played out had it been set in our capital city.

Ladies, down your tools – This one needs your undivided attention.

For those of you who have yet to get stuck into the sci-fest fest that is Stranger Things, Barb was undoubtedly the unsung hero of the latest Netflix smash hit.

The long-suffering friend of the high-achieving Nancy, Barb embodied ALL of us during the most awkward phases of our teenage years.

Ginger, bespetacled, and with all the craic of someone's particularly uptight grandmother, Barb was everyone in secondary school attempting to fit in with the cool kids while doing right by her best friend.

And with the show's creators having been commended for their uncanny portrayal of 1980s America, it seems they really hit the nail on the head when it came to the ill-fated Barb.

Taking to Twitter to acknowledge the all-round appeal of the awkward teen, social media users have shared throwback photos of themselves looking like a stand-in for the flame-haired Barb.

And ladies, they're not wrong…

Since its advent at the dawn of the new millennium, Big Brother, and its celebrity spin-off shows, have gradually become more and more risqué.

With members of the general public and so-called C-list celebs vying for notoriety in the now infamous reality TV house, the antics of contestants has, over the years, escalated from chaste kisses and nocturnal fumblings to full-on sexcapades in full view of other housemates.

And it sounds like a lot of people have had enough.

With Marnie Simpson making headlines after enjoying the 'most romantic shower' of her life with Lewis Bloor, and Stephen Bear (who has a girlfriend) begging Chloe Khan for sex in the house bathroom in the latest series, campaigners are concerned about the x-rated nature of the show.

Calling for the long-running show – which switched from Channel 4 to Channel 5 in 2011 – to be axed, a spokesperson for Mediawatchdog-UK said: "If Channel 5 needs to resort to this sort of controversy to maintain any interest in Celebrity Big Brother, then perhaps the format needs to be allowed to die a bit more quietly."

"What’s most concerning here is Channel 5’s on-demand service that allows children to watch such programmes with just a box tick to say they’re old enough."

"Post-watershed is one thing but the Internet means nudity is on the air 24 hours a day," they added.

Remember when Tom's red shorts were the talk of the summer back in 2000?

If we were offered one extra day in 2016, it's fair to say most of us would politely decline.

From the shocking implications of global politics to the passing of much-loved and high-profile figures, the first eight months have been seriously rough.

And with what seems like an ever-increasing threat of terror and senseless violence, many of us have uttered the phrase 'What is the world coming to?' more times than we ever thought possible this year.

And it looks like the lads from comedy act, Foil Arms and Hog, are with us all on that one.

In a Facebook upload which perfectly illustrates a widespread perception of the world right now, the lads can be seen assessing various countries with a view to travel.

And it is (unfortunately) on the money.

Hardly a day passes without being confronted by a photo that will have you questioning pretty much everything; your eyesight, your intellect, the lot.

From the phone which blended perfectly into the carpet to the cigar which couldn't have been more obvious sticking out of a brick wall, we love and loathe these photos in equal measure.

While they sometimes makes us feel like we've had a lobotomy, they are without doubt the perfect way to while away an hour when you're, you know, supposed to be working and whatnot.

And the latest one to take the internet by storm is a real doozie.

Uploaded to Reddit by waterhauler, the image contains a stack of logs… and a cat.

But no one can find the cat, and when they do eventually spot it, it's ALL they can see.

Ladies, it's time to clock off for the afternoon…

Find a cat from pics

OK, give up?

Any die-hard Scarlett Moffatt fan will know that Gogglebox wasn't the Geordie's girl's first foray into reality television.

Oh, long before the Moffatt family invited us into their front room, the family's eldest daughter got a taste of fame during her role in MTV's Beauty School Dropouts.

And it was in this 2013 show that Scarlett and Jeremy McConnell got up close and personal.

Before the Dubliner ever laid eyes on former Hollyoaks actress, Stephanie Davis, in the Celebrity Big Brother house, Jeremy had his sights set on Scarlett, and the feeling was mutual.

Commenting at the time, Scarlett made her feeling for Jeremy known after a sneaky shift, telling producers: "He’s the sexiest leprechaun I’ve ever seen in my life."

But it wasn't only our very own Jezza who caught Scarlett's eye at the time, saying of another cast member: "Richard might not have much going on upstairs but reading never gave me an orgasm."

Indeed Scarlett, indeed.

If you – like millions others – divide your week between watching re-runs of Carpool Karaoke and waiting for the next instalment, you'll be PUMPED to learn that a standalone series of the uber popular Late Late Show segment is on the way!

According to NME, producers of The Late Late Show have partnered up with Apple Music, and will soon be treating the public to 16 episodes of Carpool Karaoke – with one expected to debut in the not too distant future!

Commenting on the news, Late Late Show producer, Ben Winston, said: "We couldn't be more excited to be partnering with Apple Music on this exciting new series of Carpool Karaoke."

Jimmy Kimmel and Matt Damon's 'feud' has become part of modern day folklore at this stage, and while the public are always eager to hear the latest instalment, it looks like the two lads are more interested in building bridges.

In a sketch for Jimmy Kimmel Live, Matt and his frenemy, Jimmy, decided to hash out their issues in the company of a couple's counsellor, and the internet can't get enough.

In footage which has been viewed more than 100,000 times in 24 hours, the lads recalled the trials and tribulations they have endured over the course of their relationship.

And the best part? The two lads clearly find the skit as hilarious as the audience.

After seven minutes of straight acting, Jimmy and Matt use drawings to describe their feelings for one another, and they can barely keep it together.

Bright-red and giggling uncontrollably over Jimmy's perception of him, Matt demands they re-shoot the shot, but thankfully it made it on to the internet in its unedited version.

Skip forward to 6.30 for the golden moment…

While once known for her notoriously private nature, Mila Kunis has turned that particular perception on its head after recently offering some particular interesting insights into the relationship she shares with husband Ashton Kutcher.

Just last week, the Black Swan star revealed that she and Ashton had started out as the classic 'friends with benefits' before graduating to fully-fledged boyfriend and girlfriend status.

And this week, she decided to give viewers of The Late Late Show an idea of what she's dealing with in the bedroom department when it comes to her husband's junk – yes, really.

During the Spill Your Guts or Fill Your Guts segment of the popular late night chat show, the 32-year-old actress revealed that her husband's penis most closely resembled our father's favourite weekend tipple.

After being presented with two options – a carrot stick or a beer can – Mila initially opted for a carrot stick before changing her mind.

“I have to have one or the other? Carrot stick. Beer cans are short," she answered before realising she may have sold her husband a little bit short on the girth front.

"Oh, beer can, beer can…I was thinking short and stubby and long and thin. But like a Guinness," she eventually concluded.

Well hello, Ashton…

They had one of the most turbulent romances – if you could call it that – in the Geordie Shore house, and it doesn't sound like Marnie and Aaron are any closer to finding a way to make their attraction to each other actually work in the real world.

From blazing rows to tearful reunions, the reality stars really knew how to keep viewers on their toes, and even had social media users suggesting a marriage was on the horizon when Marnie was spotted wearing a ring in a recent online post.

Responding to rumours at the time, the outspoken Geordie slammed people for jumping to conclusions, tweeting: "It’s on my RIGHT hand. Use your brain. Please. It’s taken in a mirror so it’s therefore the opposite way around."
 

Eager to dismiss rumours that herself and Aaron are heading for a fairytale ending, Marnie opened up in her column for Star magazine, and revealed that the pair had a lot of work to do before they could consider becoming an official item.

"Aaron and I have serious trust issues, which is why we can’t be together. I don’t think he trusts anyone," she wrote.

Acknowledging that she too has matters which need resolving, 24-year-old Marnie continued: "I have my issues as well, though. We both need to work on ourselves before we can have a relationship

"He’ll always have a place in my heart, but we need to be single for now," she insisted 

Well, that's us told.
