The channel’s Dark Side franchise ventures into an arena of infinite possibilities, going behind the scenes of some of reality TV’s most popular and/or infamous series. The first subject: Fox’s notorious and instantly maligned 2004 makeover series The Swan, in which two so-called “ugly ducklings” underwent extensive cosmetic alterations in what Vice describes as a “plastic surgery face-off.” Other shows undergoing Vice’s scrutiny: Kid Nation, Joe Millionaire, Hell’s Kitchen, The Surreal Life, Extreme Makeover Home Edition, Survivor, Real Housewives, Toddlers & Tiarasan America’s Next Top Model.
