Each episode of the series is split into separate segments, corresponding to the shows the groups watch. Not every group is featured in every segment, and each segment is often filmed on a different day of the week. The shows featured on the show range from cable to network television series and from scripted to unscripted, many of which air on Bravo, the same network as The People's Couch.[4]
