My mistake.

Don't know what I was confusing it with.

Advanced Title Search:

Although there _are_ reality-related keywords:
But indeed, no such genre in the Android app menu. At least not going in from 
What to Watch > More (on the scroll bar of genres mixed with providers) 
which gives a list title More filters for Genres
also omits Action, Fantasy, Film-noir, Game-show, Music, News, Romance, Sport, (but it adds Short), Talk-show, Thriller, and Western.
When I go in under Top Picks > More, I get a different, longer subset of Genres, but still not all of them. Similar for other categories on the front page of the app.
However, when I get to 
Watch soon at home > More
then Reality-TV does show as a genre choice, as does Game-Show, among many others.
So I suspect the genre list is customized to the titles that are available for each Category.

One way to find shows with the "Reality-TV" genre is to navigate to a title which has the desired genre (e.g. The Bachelorette). Then above the plot summary, you should find any relevant Genres (e.g. Game-Show, Reality-TV) and be able to select these genres. This will produce a list of 100 results on the Android app.
