I don't think interests changed, but I think the willingness of ppl 2B overtly ratchet changed since those shows aired.
A show like runs house, if aired today, ppl would find fault in... nowadays, normalcy is heavily picked a part, while ratchetness is rationalized and excused

People tune into these drama shows to feel better about their own lives and laugh at the pain of others, and its a bonus if the people are attractive. Look at how many variations of "dating"/hooking up shows Netflix has.

Both.
Look at LIB. The ratings for Season 6 significantly increased due to the amount of drama. Specifically, drama involving a black woman. People tune in to what they want to watch and unfortunately, the audience for healthy, relatable content is very small.

Was just talking about this in Spaces. I definitely wanna see black women getting loved on reality tv.
I’ve never watched Love Island. But i hear about it a lot. Believe it or not i don’t tend to watch much dating reality.

There has been successful black reality that was more positive: TI family hustle, runs house? Are we past that? Is that stuff of the past? No one is interested?
None of them have an oversized personality. Same with the millions of real estate shows on Netflix (outside of the selling sunset franchise) real milktose.
It really makes me think of the Kardasiams for example. you definitely can’t knock their hustle. They’ve created an empire however, their storylines on the show are dramatic in someways, but clearly overly produced no one has to be overly loud, start fights.
