Studio Lambert\u2019s Stephen Lambert and Tim Harcourt are the executive producers for the show overall.

It is set to begin filming soon.<\/p>\n<p>Netflix has also launched the largest reality casting call ever, inviting fans 18 and older in the U.S., Canada and the U.K. to apply for their favorite Netflix reality shows.<\/p>\n<p>Brandon Riegg, VP of unscripted and documentary series at Netflix, said: \u201cReality TV is a powerful genre. It has the ability to make you invested in who is going to win the big competition or find true love (or at least a good showmance). It also has the ability to bring people together from all walks of life. We love to hear from viewers who feel inspired and accepted after seeing themselves reflected in our shows. After all, what is reality TV if it doesn\u2019t represent real people?\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Netflix has renewed The Circle, Indian Matchmaking and The American Barbecue Showdown and has given the green light for Roaring Twenties.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1412,"featured_media":16624,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"pmpro_default_level":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[69],"tags":[5707,269,5708,5709,4815],"class_list":["post-16623","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","","category-top-stories","tag-indian-matchmaking","tag-netflix","tag-roaring-twenties","tag-the-american-barbecue-showdown","tag-the-circle","pmpro-has-access"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>Netflix Reveals New &amp; Returning Unscripted Series - TVREAL<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/netflix-reveals-new-returning-unscripted-series\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"Netflix Reveals New &amp; Returning Unscripted Series - TVREAL\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Netflix has renewed The Circle, Indian Matchmaking and The American Barbecue Showdown and has given the green light for Roaring Twenties.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/netflix-reveals-new-returning-unscripted-series\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"TVREAL\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2021-08-10T13:00:48+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2021-08-10T13:15:02+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2017\/07\/MichelleButeau-TheCircle-0821.jpg\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"597\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"318\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:type\" content=\"image\/jpeg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Jamie Stalcup\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Written by\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"Jamie Stalcup\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:label2\" content=\"Est. reading time\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data2\" content=\"2 minutes\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/netflix-reveals-new-returning-unscripted-series\/\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/netflix-reveals-new-returning-unscripted-series\/\",\"name\":\"Netflix Reveals New &amp; Returning Unscripted Series - TVREAL\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/#website\"},\"datePublished\":\"2021-08-10T13:00:48+00:00\",\"dateModified\":\"2021-08-10T13:15:02+00:00\",\"author\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/#\/schema\/person\/0da12602224807cc7b179b8405018deb\"},\"breadcrumb\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/netflix-reveals-new-returning-unscripted-series\/#breadcrumb\"},\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"ReadAction\",\"target\":[\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/netflix-reveals-new-returning-unscripted-series\/\"]}]},{\"@type\":\"BreadcrumbList\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/netflix-reveals-new-returning-unscripted-series\/#breadcrumb\",\"itemListElement\":[{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":1,\"name\":\"Home\",\"item\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/\"},{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":2,\"name\":\"Netflix Reveals New &amp; Returning Unscripted Series\"}]},{\"@type\":\"WebSite\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/#website\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/\",\"name\":\"TVREAL\",\"description\":\"\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"SearchAction\",\"target\":{\"@type\":\"EntryPoint\",\"urlTemplate\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/?s={search_term_string}\"},\"query-input\":\"required name=search_term_string\"}],\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\"},{\"@type\":\"Person\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/#\/schema\/person\/0da12602224807cc7b179b8405018deb\",\"name\":\"Jamie Stalcup\",\"description\":\"Jamie Stalcup is the executive editor of World Screen.
