There is just something about trashy reality TV shows which seems to draw a large audience. Especially when it is a trashy dating reality TV show, those are just the icing on the genre’s cake. One such American reality TV series is Ex On The Beach, which premiered on MTV on April 19th, 2018. The show is based on the British series of the same name and features cast members from various reality TV series living together with their exes. The format of the American version differs from that of the original British version. Ex On The Beach Season 5 is the current season of the American version.
In the British version, cast members stay abroad and begin relationships, which are typically interrupted by their exes arriving at various points throughout the series. A group of eight singles get a rude shock when they are sent to enjoy a holiday in the sunshine and their exes are invited along to see what is happening.

Format
Ex On The Beach revolves around 10 single celebrities, who think they are going to a beach for a romantic vacation until their exes arrive. Single men and women enjoy a summer holiday in paradise while looking for love, however, they are joined by their exes to shake things up. Each ex is there either to rekindle their love or for revenge. Irish comedian Romeo Miller narrates the show. Not knowing their exes are about to arrive, the 10 reality stars arrive at the beach to begin their getaway. As the first ex is voted off the beach, more exes arrive. An elimination ceremony usually turns into chaos as two more exes arrive on the beach. As another ex gets voted out, a new ex arrives and secrets are unleashed. Usually sometime later on in a surprise twist, the exes find themselves with all the power. One of the contestants always schemes and tries to manipulate the house, for example, in the first season it was Derrick.
Usually, two new exes arrive together and one is more welcome than the other. An ex always returns and sends the house into chaos, like in the first season when Cory’s ex Alicia returned. An ex is sent to the beach for the first time. The elimination leaves everyone surprised and dirty secrets are revealed in the shack of secrets. A trip to the shack of secrets threatens to tear a couple’s time in paradise apart. For example, in season one, Paulie and Lexi finally define their relationship, but a trip to the shack of secrets threatens that. A new ex usually arrives to make an old ex jealous and crashes a party, literally. A contestant is usually tempted to kick someone else out and bring a new partner into the mix. Like Jasmine did in the first season. And of course, everyone gets pulled into drama when one of the contestants rips into another.
