When you’re looking for something to watch on TV that allows you to truly decompress and not think of your own drama, reality TV is often just a channel flip away.
It is mindless entertainment that can be enthralling, messy and fun, but best of all, the drama is never, ever your problem.
In this list, HuffPost reporters and editors look back on the year for our best and wildest moments on reality TV and recall the times where our favorite reality stars made us laugh, scream and, very often, shake our heads.
