She was given a completely fabricated backstory and was coached on how and why she supposedly got into the pawn shop industry. The premise is also wishy-washy at best. It is therefore no wonder that Pawn Queens was canceled after only one season. Just from listening to interviews with Anthony Bourdain, you get the sense that he doesn't make things up.
It explores the cuisine and history of various locales around the world through the experience, contacts, and connections of the titular chef, with no room for scripted drama.

Love Island is a lot like Survivor , but contestants are forced to couple up for romance, money, or opportunity in order to win the competition. Though this might not sound like a hard-hitting fact-based series, the series is allegedly even more fake than most fans realize, according to former contestant and anonymous Reddit user Throwawayuk While The Amazing Race has some artificial moments-- it is a TV competition after all-- the actual journeys and experiences of the contestants are real.
They really do have to make their way around the world, hopping from continent to continent while performing tasks and challenges of mental and physical fortitude. The planning involved for each season is extremely intense. Producers have to investigate local cultures, plan routes, and consult with ex-military and ex-intelligence officers who have experience in the areas that the contestants will be traversing.

This in-show placement accompanies regular commercial breaks and increases the value of advertisement for sponsors. At the end of the day, the biggest advantages reality TV shows have over scripted ones are financial, but that's no surprise. Also, the fact that reality shows are often used to deliver new content and bring in ad money while comedies and dramas are "off-season" is a major benefit.
