The Glass House was a reality TV show that aired on ABC in 2012. The show was hosted by Gene Bryant and followed fourteen contestants as they competed against each other in a variety of challenges and twists in an attempt to win a $250,000 cash prize. The premise of the show was simple; the contestants were locked in a glass house in the middle of a field, with cameras and microphones recording their every move. The contestants were allowed to interact with each other, form alliances, and vote each other off the show. The goal was to be the last person standing and win the grand prize.

The contestants were a diverse group of individuals, ranging in age, gender, and professional backgrounds. There was Ashley Forrestier, a nurse from Louisiana who was known for her strong-willed personality and strategic gameplay. Joy Glass, a businesswoman from Georgia, was the oldest contestant and was often seen as a mother-like figure for the other players. Other notable contestants included Andrea Brooks, a college student from California, and Jeffrey Pollard, a bartender from Rhode Island.

The Glass House was filled with drama, as alliances were formed and broken, and contestants were voted off at a rapid pace. The show also included various challenges, which required contestants to use their physical, mental, and strategic skills to complete. Some of the challenges included balancing on a giant spinning ball, solving puzzles, and memory tasks.

One unique aspect of the show was that the audience was able to interact and influence the game. Viewers were able to vote for contestants to be sent to "limbo," a separate location in the house where contestants would have to fight to stay in the game. Viewers were also able to vote for the "team captain," a player who had the power to select teams for challenges and select which contestants would be sent to limbo.

The Glass House was not without controversy. The show faced legal challenges from CBS, who claimed that the show was a rip-off of their reality show, Big Brother. The lawsuit was ultimately dropped, but the negative attention may have contributed to the show's cancellation after only one season.

In conclusion, The Glass House was a reality show that followed fourteen contestants as they competed for a $250,000 grand prize. The contestants were locked in a glass house and faced challenges and eliminations as they tried to outwit and outlast each other. The show was filled with drama and intrigue, and even allowed viewers to interact with and influence the game. Despite its controversy, The Glass House provided an entertaining and unique take on the reality TV genre.

The Glass House is a series that is currently running and has 1 seasons (10 episodes). The series first aired on June 17, 2012.
