It’s the one question that gets asked more than any other about the show: How tall is the My Giant Life cast on TLC? The hit is well-known for its portrayal of, in the network’s own words, women who are “seemingly too tall and lofty for the average-sized world.” And, in keeping with the baseline…
There may be a 15-year gap between Scott Disick and new girlfriend Sofia Richie’s birthdays, but the couple isn’t letting Scott Disick’s age affect the non-stop party that is their relationship. Scott and Sofia leaked their “official” dating status in a series of high-profile gossip items back in mid-September, and then hired a photographer to…
Other than dealing with rumors that she and boyfriend Offset are expecting a baby, the most common bit of gossip that Cardi B has to deal with involves her teeth. The “Bodak Yellow” superstar has been open about her new grill since having some intensive dental work done last year. In fact, Cardi B’s teeth…
Todd Chrisley remains one of the most popular figures in all reality TV-dom, but the single best-known fact about him remains the $45 million bankruptcy claim he filed in 2012. At the time, the Chrisleys lived in a 30,000 square foot mansion in the Atlanta suburbs and spent $300,000 per year on clothing; they have,…
She’s got arguably the most famous body in the world, and has been a source of controversy–and envy–for years. (Remember when this was all the rage?) But how much does Kylie Jenner’s plastic surgery cost? A new report from Kardashian home network E! reveals the eye-popping figure, though it omits a couple of the hidden…
Because Baller Wives Chris and Stacey Chambers’ relationship has a colorful history (to say the least), the pair are often the subject of questions regarding their stalker-y origins. While they have been married for several years and by all accounts seem to be quite happy together, the way they got together still has fans and…
A1 Bentley, one of Love & Hip Hop Hollywood‘s breakout stars from Season 3, has had nothing if not a dramatic life. He was a rising college basketball star in Kansas City, decided his true passion was for music, and landed in LA with nothing but $800 and a head full of dreams. Then, after…
The 2017 total eclipse times might, at first, seem meager. Most cities in the path will see between one and two minutes of total darkness. Giant City State Park, in Carbondale IL, gets the Greatest Eclipse: two minutes and 41.6 seconds. And, for Americans, the whole thing will be over in about seven hours; the…
Listed Sisters is HGTV’s newest Nashville-based hit, though the adjective “sleeper” has never been more appropriate. The show has an 11 PM start time, which makes it the latest show in the network’s regular rotation, and one of the most-dependent upon reruns and block programming throughout the rest of the week. All of which is…
Anthony Scaramucci’s net worth was already sky-high, but a new report suggests that the figure could rocket into the stratosphere once The Mooch cashes in on his eleven debacle-laden days in the White House. Scaramucci, who was famously fired before even being sworn in as White House communications director–and who, durng those same eleven days,…
A new ESPN report on OJ Simpson’s net worth and his NFL pension earnings sheds considerable light on the man’s estimated net worth as of 2017. According to that report, OJ’s pension has netted him between $430,000 and $600,000, depending on when he chose to start receiving it. It’s actually easy to calculate how much…
Chris Kelley, the man who does the voiceovers for SportsCenter, is a 59-year-old Nutmegger with a recording studio in his basement and a penchant for weed. He’s been profiled a few times during his 19-year stint as the voice of ESPN’s flagship program, most notably in a 2012 Front Row podcast (which has since disappeared…
Yukon Men star Stan Zuray’s bio is as varied and interesting as the land he’s called home for over four decades. While Discovery often likes to play up what it refers to as Stan Zuray’s troubled past, the man’s age (he’s 67 years old this year), calm demeanor, and willingness to share stories from his…
(UPDATE – Since this article was written, there’s unfortunately been an addition to the number of My 600 Lb Life deaths. 41-year-old Robert Buchel, a season six participant from New Jersey, passed away from a heart attack due in part to the emotional complications he suffered after surgery to remove a lymphedema mass. Click here…
Investigation Discovery’s hit I Am Homicide recently debuted its Season 2 premiere to strong ratings and great fanfare. As we recently wrote, the second season of the show will be longer than the first by at least one episode, and possibly by several more–so fans of Detective Garry McFadden have a lot to look forward…
The Naked and Afraid PSR (or “Primitive Survival Rating,” for the uninitiated) is basically the show’s answer to endless reams of sports statistics. It’s a somewhat objective method of measuring how prepared the show’s participants are to go out into the wild for three weeks before they leave and then, after for the fact, of…
Avid fans of Good Bones know that star Mina Starsiak’s social media feeds are chock full of her adventures in aunting. Mina has at least four nieces and nephews–truthfully, her family is so large that we lost count trying to figure out the exact number–and no shortage of love for each of them. But, if…
Kathleen Zuray, Stan Zuray’s wife on Discovery’s Yukon Men, has become something of a fixture for a group of the show’s (and, specifically, Stan’s) fans. Not because of anything she’s done on the show–in fact, it’s for quite the opposite reason. Thanks to Stan’s legendary stature and commanding presence, Kathleen’s near-total absence–to date, we’ve only…
Every reality TV show in the history of the genre has had to deal with skeptical viewers or disgruntled former participants claiming that the show is completely fake. Naked And Afraid is no exception–in fact, since it’s the most popular show in the survival subgenre, it likely has to deal with this issue more than…
Discovery’s critically acclaimed show The Last Alaskans is set to air its third season finale tonight. As always, the possibility that some of the show’s families may choose not to return to the Arctic National Wildlife Refuge is in the air. And, given how tumultuous this season has been, it’s probably fair to say that…
Palazzo Dei Sogni, a southern California edifice best known to TV viewers as the Keeping Up With The Kardashians house, is back on the market. The palatial estate rose to infamy after KUWTK producers chose it for establishing exterior shots after Kim Kardashian was beset by tourists and gawkers at her actual home early in…
Cooper’s Treasure, the ridiculous and awesome story of a real-life astronaut treasure map (it’s impossible to get tired of that phrase), has raised newfound interest in Gordon Cooper, the Mercury Seven space explorer responsible for charting the map back in the 1960s. Cooper is probably still best-known for lending his name to several conspiracies in…
VH1 is about to air another one of its famed Dirty Little Secrets episodes of Love & Hip Hop Atlanta, and this one features a number of prominent LHHATL fights.

Home Town, HGTV’s newest smash hit, has only been on for a few weeks, but we’ve already been able to learn quite a bit about Ben and Erin Napier and how they operate. We know, for example, how Home Town got turned into a show in the first place, and we know how tall Ben…
Nicki Minaj’s first performative foray came via a group called Hoodrats, a quartet that also featured Bowlegged Lou’s son Lou$tar, current Love & Hip Hop Hollywood star Safaree Samuels, and 7even Up. Nicki was only a member of the group for a few years, but her tenure featured at least one interesting non-musical experience: according…
Kirby Jenner has become just enough of a social media phenomenon to pick up a sizeable following and a fair bit of acclaim, but not big enough to blow up his (her?) carefully crafted joke. Which joke is that Kirby Jenner is actually the fraternal twin of Kendall Jenner, who is currently best-known for parlaying…
Maria Elena Salinas, who counts Emmys, Peabodys, and Edward R. Murrow awards among her many accolades, is launching a new true crime show in conjunction with Investigation Discovery. Entitled The Real Story with Maria Elena Salinas, the show, per its press release, “peels back the layers of national headline-making crimes in search of new evidence,…
Kylie Jenner has been denying rumors about assorted cosmetic surgeries since around her 16th birthday. She called such rumors “hurtful” three years ago, when what looked like a new pair of lips caught fans by surprise, and used to claim that her mother “would never let” her go under the knife or anything like it….
Investigation Discovery’s four-part Killing Richard Glossip documentary takes a comprehensive look at the case of an Oklahoma man sentenced to death for a murder that police know he didn’t commit, and that Glossip has argued for years he had nothing to do with. The miniseries was produced by acclaimed filmmaker Joe Berlinger, best-known for his…
One of the best-known houses in Fixer Upper history is currently on the market–but the successful buyer needs more than deep pockets to seal the deal. The Barndominium was an instantly legendary renovation after it featured on Season 3, Episode 11 of Fixer Upper, and then turned into something of a headache for Chip and…
It’s a question that gets asked of every new show on HGTV, and their latest hit Home Town is no different: Do the people on Home Town keep the furnishings? Viewers are enamored–to say the least!–of Erin and Ben Napier’s cozy aesthetic, due in no small part to the huge array of crafts and custom-built…
Donald Trump as famous for his Twitter trigger finger as he is for never admitting when he’s at fault. (Or, more specifically, never admitting that he could be at fault.) But that combination of characteristics means we never see stories featuring Trump taking the celebrity walk of shame: deleting a controversial tweet shortly after firing…
If you’ve been lucky (or cursed) enough to visit Disney World in the last few years, you know that the park takes your fingerprint before you can get through the front doors. Which can be an eyebrow-raising proposition under good circumstances–but the Disney World MagicBand tracking device the company began using in 2013 is supposed…
Home Town, HGTV’s newest impeccable-yet-approachable renovation hit, had a very long gestation. As we described in our first feature on the show, an HGTV producer contacted Erin and Ben Napier back in 2014, after seeing a magazine profile of their beautifully restored 1925 Craftsman-style home. The pair shot a sizzle reel: a short montage of…
Kirk Frost’s latest baby mama drama is the centerpiece of Love & Hip Hop Atlanta‘s sixth season, which is currently two episodes old.

Season 1 of HGTV’s Home Town is getting more buzz than any show on the network since Fixer Upper‘s debut.

One of the most persistently asked questions about Discovery’s quietest reality show involves the eye condition of The Last Alaskans Lewis daughters. While Ray and Cindy Lewis spent their formative years in the lower 48 (they’re both Michigan natives), their three daughters–Molly (age 23), Emma (21), and Sarah (19)–all grew up in the Arctic National…
In the run-up to Big Beach Builds‘ big DIY premiere, much has been made of star Marnie Oursler’s pedigree: she’s the fifth generation in her family to make a living from construction and home building. In addition, Marnie’s success story is something of an industry-wide outlier; she began Marnie Custom Homes, her own business, just…
HGTV recently announced five brand-new spinoffs of the network’s hugely popular show Flip or Flop. First up is the Las Vegas edition, starring former MMA fighter Bristol Marunde and his wife Aubrey; the two are already well-known in the greater Vegas area, where they’ve been flipping homes for years. But Bristol is originally from Fairbanks…
Lovely Mimi’s extremely young age and supremely rapid ascent into social media superstardom have most LHHATL fans doing a cartoonish double take.

Fixer Upper is a success like no HGTV show before it, and the show’s popularity has been a boon for the city of Waco, which sees an estimated 20,000 new tourists per week thanks to the show. However, that surge in attention also affects the lives of every Fixer Upper couple and family–and not always…
Sky Landish has captivated LHHNY fans with her simple, honest, awe-inspiring story–which is a big part of why the Sky Landish Love & Hip Hop before and after photos have inspired so much positive discussion for the show’s newest star. Recently, Sky revealed on Love & Hip Hop New York that she and boyfriend DJ…
Alaska The Last Frontier may be well into its 6th season, but the public’s appetite for the Kilcher family’s adventures certainly shows no signs of waning.

Cardi B was unquestionably the breakout star of Love & Hip Hop New York’s sixth season, and received widespread acclaim for her hilarious shade-throwing ways.

The Kilcher family’s adventures on Alaska: The Last Frontier take place in a remote section of southern Alaska dotted by mountains and bounded by pristine shores. In addition, the show makes mention of the nearby town of Homer, and of the Kilcher family homestead–but where exactly is the Alaska The Last Frontier homestead location? Homer…
The JonBenet Ramsey house and parents have had divergent paths since the shocking 1996 murder of the 6-year-old girl. The former family house in Boulder has been vacant for years. John and Patsy Ramsey’s fortune evaporated in the wake of the years-long investigation into JonBenet’s murder–and the subsequent legal defense the couple had to mount…
The question of whether reality TV stars get paid (and how much they’re paid) is one of the most frequently asked of the whole genre. And it comes up perhaps more than usual in the case of Alaska The Last Frontier, along with other survival-type shows, since the thought of compensation seems to run counter…
Yard Crashers, one of HGTV’s longest-running series, is currently chugging along at Season 16 and showing no signs of stopping anytime soon. Partly due to the fact that it’s been so very long-running, the show has long faced a bevy of questions as to its veracity. Thanks to former host Matt Blashaw answering almost all…
The Fetty Wap net worth question is an intriguing one, considering the 25-year-old’s rapid ascent to stardom and brand-new inclusion as a supporting cast member (albeit a significant one) on Love & Hip Hop Hollywood. Though he had been a major player in the hip-hop underground–”Trap Queen,” possibly still his biggest hit, predates major label…
Where are The Exorcist steps in Georgetown? Believe it or not, they’re spookily easily to find, though they’re also surprisingly easy to overlook, since there isn’t actually a house right next to them with a window for a priest to jump from. (It is nearby, though, and heavily fenced in order to deter tourists.) The…
Is Iliza Shlesinger related to Dr. Laura? The continually rising star of stand-up has a brand-new Netflix special coming out, a pair of specials under her belt, a successful mini-series in the form of Forever 31, and, thanks to its cancelation, the distinction of being the only female winner of Last Comic Standing in the…
Do Cutthroat Kitchen contestants get paid? And does Cutthroat Kitchen use real money? They’re the two questions most commonly asked about Food Network’s best-known culinary competition, which might well go down in history as the wonkiest cooking battle show of all time.

Is the Designated Survivor real? How is she chosen? And where does she go? Kiefer Sutherland’s return to TV depicts a presidential nightmare: the President of the United States, almost all of his Cabinet, and almost every member of Congress are killed in a terror attack during the State of the Union address. Sutherland, in…
Believe it or not, one of the most common questions folks ask about Discovery hit Dual Survival is “Are the Dual Survival guys gay?” It’s difficult to understand why, considering that both seasoned vet (and recent retirée) Grady Powell and new hand Josh James are regular updaters on social media. As devoteés of the pair’s…
Are the Worst Cooks In America really that bad? They can’t be that bad, can they? They must be actors. Right? Well, unfortunately (or fortunately, depending on your perspective) what you see is what you get in the kitchen when a new batch of recruits rolls up on Food Network’s set for a new season…
Did Fetty Wap lose both his eyes? The Love & Hip Hop Hollywood star continues to bewilder fans unfamiliar with the tale of how he lost an eye earlier in life–and whether he actually lost both his eyes at any point. And, to be fair, part of the general confusion stems from the fact that…
