As much as we hate to admit it, the Real Housewives franchise continues to expand its content for this main reason: living for the drama.

And what could be more dramatic than fighting over something as petty as being late to Gizelle's GNA Wellness event in Real Housewives of Potomac season 9 episode 3?

In Gizelle's defense though, the charity event is dedicated to her late father who recently passed away from brain cancer. The event was supposed to raise funds for the National Brain Tumor Society. As she said, "Don't play with me tonight."

Nothing could ever be dry in the case of Below Deck Sailing Yacht, especially when Danni Warren couldn't get over being scolded by Daisy when it came to her table arrangement with the guests in season 5 episode 4.

As much as Daisy wants no drama on the boat, she admitted she couldn't lay things gentler for Danni's incompetence in fixing her mistakes.

The episode caused chaos among fans who couldn't get over Danni 'crying and freaking out over table decor.'

Some memes have to start somewhere before going viral.

The Bad Girls Club has had many fights due to the pressure of having to accomplish nearly impossible tasks, but Tanisha Thomas' blow-up in season 2 takes the cake.

When her messy roommates refused to keep their place clean, Tanisha woke everyone up by banging pots and pans while chanting, "I didn't get no f***ing sleep 'cause of y'all, y'all not gonna get no sleep 'cause of me!"

The most dramatic scenes in reality TV don't necessarily have to be physical.

In the case of Survivor: Borneo, Sue Hawk made her mark by making up a speech about snakes and rats: "This island is pretty much full of only two things: snakes and rats. We have Richard the snake, who knowingly went after prey and Kelly, who turned into the rat that ran around like the rats do on this island, trying to run from the snake."

"I feel we owe it to the island's spirits that we have learned to come to know to let it be in the end the way that Mother Nature intended it to be," Sue added, "For the snake to eat the rat."

As Netflix's Love is Blind franchise expands, nothing can beat the grade-A drama that unfolded at the altar in season 3.

While couples usually don't walk down the aisle to the altar to break up, Zanab took the opportunity to take that happily-ever-after illusion up a notch before flushing it down the drain.

She essentially announced every red flag Cole had told her before their marriage, eventually declaring that she was not pushing through.
