7 Ways to Transform Disney IP into Reality Shows on Disney+
While other streaming platforms have found success with reality TV shows, Disney+ has been noticeably lacking in this department. The platform only offers one competition show, Dancing with the Stars, but it’s not enough to satisfy reality TV fans. Previous attempts at reality TV on Disney+ have come and gone without much impact.
One idea to consider would be a competition show called “Who Wants To Be An Imagineer?” Contestants from various technical and creative backgrounds could compete to design new experiences for Disney Parks and Resorts. Each week, they would tackle challenges like creating a new restaurant or live show, with industry professionals judging their work. The winner could earn a coveted role within Disney’s design company.
Another potential show could be inspired by the popular Descendants franchise. Wannabe triple threats could compete to be added to the franchise in a meaningful way. Contestants could even create their own villainous characters based on Disney’s iconic antagonists. With appearances from past and present Descendants stars as judges, this show could be a hit among fans of the franchise.
These are just a few ideas for how Disney could leverage its vast library of IP to create engaging reality TV content for Disney+. By tapping into the creativity and talent of contestants, while also honoring beloved Disney stories, these shows could bring a new level of excitement to the platform.
