Here's why FindingMagicMike is actually the best reality show you haven't been watching.
There's a scene in 2015's Magic Mike XXL that feels indelibly consigned to the annals of film history forever. I'm sure you know the one — where our beloved and endearing group of male revue dancers decides to pop a little MDMA while road tripping to a stripping convention in Myrtle Beach. A pit stop at a gas station leads to an impromptu performance for the cashier courtesy of Big Dick Richie while his friends enthusiastically cheer him on the entire time.
That's not to say that there isn't skin on display — but it'd be misleading to claim that Finding Magic Mike only consists of a lot of defined abs and pelvic lines. One of the many, many delightful aspects of this show is the variety of bodies that get the chance to strut their stuff on-stage; one contestant, early on, proudly proclaims that the judges will have his "dad bod" to work with the first time the group is required to take their shirts off in public.
Normally, this would be a formula ripe for emotions brewing over; in watching these guys sweat it out through weeks of grueling dance training before leaving it all on the floor , who could blame them if they wound up feeling a bit testy? But while other reality competition shows might have orchestrated ways for contestants to end up at each other's throats, there's only the overwhelming sense of a brotherhood being forged among this tight-knit group.
