Here’s how to watch Real World Seattle: Bad Blood online, including whether it's available on Netflix, Hulu or Prime. MTV’s Real World isn’t just one of the network’s longest-running series, it’s also considered the forerunner of modern reality TV – influencing shows like Big Brother and Jersey Shore and establishing conventions like straight-to-camera confessionals. First broadcast in 1992, the show has aired 33 seasons to date and was praised in its early days for bringing social issues relevant to young adults like sexuality, addiction and prejudice to the forefront.
Each season of The Real World sees MTV bring together a diverse group of strangers who live together as housemates in a certain city while having their experiences recorded by an ever-present camera crew. With its 29th season Real World: Ex-Plosion, MTV decided to rejig the format by selecting a bunch of housemates and then having their exes move in midway through the season – a ploy guaranteed to cause even more drama than usual. MTV continued the theme with subsequent seasons introducing similarly provocative twists like Real World: Skeletons, which saw housemates forced to come face-to-face with people from their past.
Real World Seattle: Bad Blood (AKA season 32) featured a similar premise and focused on seven original housemates brought together by MTV who were soon joined by people they were once close to but had since fallen out with. It was a concept that brought together warring siblings, exes and former friends and generated plenty of drama in the process, but where can reality TV fans watch Real World: Bad Blood online?
Netflix and Hulu subscribers are out of luck, unfortunately, as neither service has any episodes of Real World Seattle: Bad Blood available. However, Amazon Prime has the full Real World Seattle: Bad Blood season, plus 22 other seasons of the reality TV show. The catch is that Prime users will need to invest in the Paramount+ add-on to watch episodes of The Real World, which costs an additional $5.99 per month. Real World fans can also go directly to Paramount+ to watch season 32 online, alongside several other seasons.
Although MTV has yet to officially renew Real World for a 34th season, the show recently had a reboot of sorts that aired on Paramount+ in 2021. Titled The Real World Homecoming: New York, the reboot reunited the cast of the very first season of the reality TV show in the SoHo loft apartment they originally congregated in back in 1992. With any luck, the Paramount+ reboot will inspire MTV to produce more seasons of The Real World in the future.
