There’s a New Reality Show Coming to Snapchat

In case you’ve already binge-watched your way through Netflix and Hulu (ahem, all of us), Snapchat just may become your new procrastination tool – and we don’t mean watching your friends’ stories or flipping through Discover.

Refinery29 reports that 45th & Dean, which is part of cable network A&E, has announced that it will be creating original shows for Snapchat. The first show we’ll be able to get our hands on? A reality show called Second Chance, in which ex-couples will reunite face-to-face to talk about and understand why they broke up. Basically, it sounds pretty juicy.

The show is set to launch in April and will offer eight episodes available to those of us in the US, UK, Canada and Australia. According to Business Insider, the new shows will be separate from Stories or Discover content, and won’t disappear after 24 hours, unlike a lot of other content on the app.

Considering the fact that 45th & Dean is set to open a new studio in New York City, it’s looking like this show is only just the beginning – meaning Snapchat might soon be the newest place to find your next TV addiction. You might want to think about upping that data subscription.
