Should be boring.

Should be boring.

Never watched it before, but the commercials look really douchey. Of course that could be said for anything on that channel outside of maybe Beavis and Butthead.

I actually though Beavis & Butthead were pretty comical.

Maybe they will want to rent my house??? Umm do they mind living next to methheads who have their El Camino's on blocks?

 

[julius]

If its true, it's at the right time of year to film a show here.

 

[JfizzleBlazer]

Sweet. I wonder if portlanders will be dicks to the real worlders like the other location city folk are.

 

[Sedatedfork]

Will former NBA player Greg Oden be a cast member?

Fuck, that show is still being made? For that matter, MTV is still being broadcast? And anyone gives a shit?

Exactly what I thought.

If this happens you should use your S2 screen name, not your real name. You might become an MTV celebrity. Joe is boring, but the name Zybot could give you a cult following.

bonus points for S2 memes.

"Hi PapaG!"

"uhh, wtf is a PapaG?"

"MARIS61!!!!!" (run away)

I don't care, and that's why I'm posting in this thread.

Ahhh, my pet nutswinger has to chime in when I post. How cute.

Imagine if they put 8 of us together to live in a house!!!

My boy Jay was on Real World London back in the day. Said that shit was fake as hell. There would be a big fight that the cameras missed, so the producers would ask if they fight again!

Portland and Seattle are what I think of, when I imagine crazy real world people living in a trendy city.

This would have never happened if it wasn't for the success of Portlandia. My brother in law has worked on RW off and on for over a decade and has pitched Portland multiple times only to be rejected. He doesn't work on RW anymore but I can guarantee if not for Portlandia this would have never happened. Interesting. And it sucks too. My brother in law could have worked from home for 4 months if he was still tied to the show. Boo.

 

[THE HCP]

^Was he a fluff boy for the show?

 

[The Professional Fan]

For the 19 y/o virgin girls, yes.

I actually really liked Real World when I was a kid because it started out with MTV putting 8 interesting people in a house together and taping the shit.

Then they started casting the different roles.

The gay person.

The virgin.

The frat house guy.

The opinionated black girl.

The wild guy who doesn't give a shit.

etc etc etc

That's when it stopped being interesting and I stopped watching, but I blame Real World for ruining MTV. It was the beginning of the end for "Music Television".

 

[BoBoBREWSKI]

^^ agree!
And as we get older, watching young idiots party and fight isnt entertaining anymore.

Well, sadly, it's reality tv that's ruining television. It has extremely low overhead, and yet it's very popular and gets good ratings.

There's something wrong when the history channel has a Pawn Stars marathon on Presidents day. There's something very wrong when "The Learning Channel" changes their name to "The Lifestyle Channel" and only shows crap like Honey Boo Boo and Gypsy Weddings.

Speak for yourself......... this is EXACTLY the reason I'm addicted to S2!

I agree that 99% of Reality TV is crap, but there are some good shows like Amazing Race.
