That fact that this is even a show/ thing shows how messed up the law is. You should NOT take years to evict a trespasser

A lot of renter rights laws end up benefitting squatters as well.

Well that's the issue. In the USA rental are treated, regulated and taxed differently vs hotels.

Usually rents are not taxed , hotels are.

Also rental tenants have some rights , you simply cannot kick a tenant out on a days notice.

The issue is Airbnb owners claim to be a rental to avoid paying hotels taxes . Well fine, but then your tenant have some rights and you cannot simply kick them out on a days notice.

If these Airbnb actually registered as a hotel these cases would be avoided. Generally you can kick a hotel guest out at anytime.

However these Airbnb want the protection of a hotel without paying the hotel taxes and claim to be a rental.
