hayu - The Netflix of Reality TV

If you don't have enough ​Keeping Up with the Kardashians​, ​Made in Chelsea​ or ​RuPaul's Drag Race ​in your life, fear not - the Netflix of reality TV is almost here.

The new app - hayu - will launch next month and feature NBCUniversal's reality shows, from ​The Real Housewives ​to ​Top Chef ​and ​The Millionaire Matchmaker​.

And it's good news for reality fans in the UK, as the service promises that the majority of the US shows will appear on the app on the same day as their US launch.

We're also told that over 50 series that have never been shown in the UK will be available on the service, with 3,000 episodes available at launch and 500 to be added each year.

There are also complete box sets and it will be available on mobile, tablet, laptop and connected TV, while if you want to share your favourite clips you can do it directly on social media. That's if you don't mind admitting that you're watching​ ​Don't Tell the Bride​.

hayu - which also includes shows like ​Shahs of Sunset​, ​I Am Cait​, ​Million Dollar Listing ​and ​Flipping Out ​- is being promoted as "costing less than a lipstick", as it comes for £3.99 per month.

But if you have enviable binge-watching skills, everyone will receive a 30-day free trial as soon as they sign up.

Don't worry if you're not in the UK - hayu is also launching in Ireland and Australia.

I don't like how genres are being separated, I'd rather have everything in one on like Netflix rather than having additional charges

JoshBB 11-02-2016 07:34 PM

:amazed:

Amy Jade 11-02-2016 08:03 PM

I'd sub it

Jack_ 11-02-2016 08:09 PM

If it doesn't have Survivor and BBUS and Can, they may as well not bother

Jack_ 29-02-2016 06:23 PM

This has launched and there's no Survivor or any of the Big Brother's in sight but proper whOOOooOOooooooOOooo stuff like 'Flipping Out', 'The Prancing Elites Project', '9 By Design' and other irrelevant crap is

Therefore it's ****, I won't be bothering, and I hope it fails :idc:

This has launched already and it's amazing - it's free if you have a TiVo with Virgin, it puts the Bad Girls Club eps on straight away after airing in the US, and it's got all the seasons of BGC, Drag Race, Untucked, Kardashians etc.

Most of it is scripted reality shows though but there is quite a lot of choice, hopefully more shows will get added soon!

Firewire 14-04-2016 10:55 PM

Omg is Drag Race season 1 on it??

Shaun 14-04-2016 11:33 PM

oh it has Untucked? :flutter: I may perch

Jack_ 14-04-2016 11:35 PM

I refuse to allow a service that's proclaiming to offer reality TV yet only providing scripted stuff to be called good :idc: it is tarnishing the good name of genuine reality TV

Drag Race and Bad Girls Club aren't scripted! :fist:

Can't lie tho I was hoping for some more shows like Survivor/Amazing Race/BBUS

Headie 14-04-2016 11:48 PM

There are probably more unscripted shows but Drag Race and BGC were the only ones I recognised at first proper glance

T* 04-07-2017 09:25 PM

Has anyone used this? I've got it and it has all the RHO seasons including my fave NJ and BGC and I am LIVING

Cal. 05-07-2017 08:08 AM

Does it have Basketball Wives, Tom?

Cal. 05-07-2017 09:30 AM

I'm not going to bother. Literally has hardly anything I'd want.

I think it might?

T* 10-07-2017 03:21 PM

It has a 30 day trial so definitely perch her

Black Dagger 10-07-2017 03:32 PM

It is trash. If they had all the big shows on board it would be worth it.
