Return of Puck! by Campion	Apr 16th, 2008 06:16:15 PM
I liked the first couple seasons, when they were just living together and no convoluted "Run a company" or other crap was involved. However the novelty wore off about 15 years ago. Yawn.

Does anyone REALLY give a shit? by Big Dumb Ape	Apr 16th, 2008 07:22:50 PM
I remember when THE REAL WORLD first premiered lo those 20 years ago. But I have to say that even back then it seemed like a one-trick pony (to me) that I could never get into afterwards. The reason: as Mr Spork correctly noted above, ever since the first run...where the idea was somewhat novel and new...everyone really HAS just acting FOR the cameras to try and make a name for themselves. That's the problem with reality shows: you can be the loser and still be a giant winner from simply being seen on it, even for just one episode if you made enough of an ass of yourself. And that notion has only become more and more apparent with each passing year, and with each new reality show that has debuted since. Truth be told, if we're going to be stuck with so many of these bullshit reality shows, then just bring on Alec Baldwin's idea of MILF ISLAND (from 30 ROCK) and that sort of thing. For crying out loud, if we're going to be shoveled this shit, than at least go all the way out there to the fringe to create some truly whacked out shows...
People Still Watch This? by The Chalk Outline	Apr 16th, 2008 07:47:41 PM
Seriously? Jesus, I can't believe anyone watched it to begin with but still, 20 seasons? Fuck.
Why don't Greg and Joey stay for the whole season? by SkidMarkedUndies	Apr 16th, 2008 08:04:11 PM
Do they get thrown off or voted off? Or why should I bother asking?

MTV is made for ten year old girls.
This show is the fifth circle of hell. by ZeroCorpse	Apr 16th, 2008 10:27:15 PM
More programming for self-centered, gossip-monger teenagers.

As witnessed by meltdown here a few years back... by Shermdawg	Apr 16th, 2008 11:35:45 PM
I was the biggest fan of that show 'round these parts......but even I bolted after Denver. (And I watched that on mtv.com) I can't support that shithole of a channel just for one show anymore......or it's interwebs counterpart.
Real World was a couple blocks away... by DarthCorleone	Apr 17th, 2008 01:57:19 AM
...all this time and I didn't even know it. I wonder if they have already left the house.
Big news for all the 12 year old girls... by FlandersBum	Apr 17th, 2008 04:38:45 AM
...who still watch this crap. Why is this so-called 'cool news' site running stories like this? What next...big news on the next Hannah Montanna episode? What's hot with the Naked Brothers Band? The Suite Life with Zack and Cody? C'mon.

Thats a fucked up thing to say. Even by this sites standards.
Really?! by rutgersjaffo	Apr 17th, 2008 08:39:14 AM
As someone old enough to have watched (and enjoyed) the first two seasons, I have to ask: Why the hell is this still on? How stupid are people that this same trite formula still amuses them? Gee, I wonder if they still have 1-the drunk? 2-the racist? 3-the asshole? 4-the drama queeen? Am I close? It's like Survivor--after the first season, why in the hell would you want to watch a different group of people do THE EXACT SAME THING?! And here's an idea--if you want to call it 'The Real World', how about you put the occassional fat and ugly person on it? There is NOTHING 'real' about filling a house with a bunch of pretty types who are in it for the free vacation and the chance to make drama on TV and then filming them. This is just one more reason why MTV stopped being relevant about 15 years ago...
LOL by HarrysNemesis	Apr 17th, 2008 10:06:55 AM
Show your age some more guys :) You liked it at one point and now you mock it because others around the age you liked it do... might as well shake your canes at it and yell "Darn that pesky MTV!" The only thing I agree with is that the name should be changed... the show has NEVER even in its early seasons been about the real world. The fact that they're now bringing on people all aspiring to be entertainers for careers... even less real. But you don't watch the show to see these people get jobs... you watch it for the drama and to see who will hook up. The older shows were better because at least the kids they got were a relatively diverse bunch forced to live together. I think MTV might have lost its way around the time... oh when it stopped showing actual videos and being about music (The M in their name)

Gimme Random Casting by _Maltheus_	Apr 17th, 2008 11:40:48 AM
I thought the entire cast of this one was suppose to be determined by the viewers, not just one person. That might have been enough to get me to watch again. Average people instead of stuck up, spoiled bitches. The only reason I ever watched this was to get an idea of where kids are heading these days. Once they started going with the worst of the worst and mentally ill, it stopped serving any function for me. In fact the best thing they could do for this show would be to simply choose the cast at random.
The "Comedian" was kicked off by hst666	Apr 17th, 2008 12:27:11 PM
because of that Uberbitch, Beth.
LOL by 2tonTAINT	Apr 17th, 2008 02:30:10 PM
if people hate it so much, then don't read the news about it!! Haha
Joey... by The Pretzelman	Apr 17th, 2008 02:37:10 PM
Joey, thou art a douchebag!
Wow, I just got so distracted by the Trek by Jaka	Apr 17th, 2008 06:48:45 PM
I guess I'll finally have to break down and order those Voyager sets tonight - that price is way silly good. Hadn't watched the last three seasons of RW (about the same amount of time I've been gone from Mtv) but decided to randomly check out the premier last night, not bad. Ego guy calling people peasants is enough to get me to watch again. But yeah, the Challange shows are definitely better than the new seasons of RW at this point.
Big Dumb Ape... by DarthFloyd	Apr 17th, 2008 11:01:35 PM
You stole my thoughts!!! Curse you! Get out of my head!!! Seriously, who the hell watches this crap? This was the catalyst for the whole genre of shit known as reality television.
Proved me wrong... by Mr. Profit	Apr 18th, 2008 06:54:02 PM
I tuned in out of sheer curiosity because the last Real World I fully watched was Austin. After that I only cared about the challenges. But the first episode proved me wrong. I thought Joey would be a douche and he wasn't. I was wanting him to slug Greg's bitch ass in the face. But I think they eventually will fight. But the kids haven't turned crazy yet. So far an improvement over the last seasons. I'll watch. Real World is the HBIC of reality shows. It loses its way, but sometimes it catches you again.
JOEY ROCKS! by SUP3RGUY	Apr 18th, 2008 07:28:52 PM
I have to agree with Mr. Profit on this one. MTV seems to be getting this series back on track. The cast is actually pretty compelling and with each one in Hollywood for a specific reason (it seems this bunch might actually have talent), it seems like there might be more at stake for them! Loved the first episode. And how can anyone NOT love Joey? He's totally gonna beat the crap outta Greg!!! :-)
