INSUBCONTINENT EXCLUSIVE:
Unreal, the critically acclaimed series that takes viewers behind the scenes of fictional reality TV showEverlasting, has moved to Hulu
.
Today announcement confirms earlier reports that Hulu was negotiating with A+E Studios to get first dibs on Unreal‘s fourth and final
The show first three seasons aired on Lifetime, with the third season recently wrapping up just a few months ago, in April.
Now all eight
episodes of Season 4 are live on Hulu — a departure from the streaming service standard approach of releasing just one or two episodes of
its original shows each week
Unreal once again stars Shiri Appleby as Rachel and Constance Zimmer as Quinn, producers who return to Everlasting for an &All Stars& season
that brings back old contestants.
While Unreal cable audience has been declining steadily, Hulu says its viewers have embraced the show —
it not releasing total audience numbers, but apparently the average viewer binges three to four episodes of the show in one session and
usually completes a full season in &a matter of days.&
&UnREAL has captivated audiences on Hulu since season one, so when this opportunity
came to us, we knew we couldn&t miss out,& said Hulu senior vice president of content Craig Erwich in the announcement
&This is a unique way to both satisfy fans of the show, while also continuing to introduce it to new audiences.&
