real world: hollywood




So don't make fun of me but I did in fact watch the first episode of The Real World: Hollywood.   Ha!  Many of you may remember my flirtation with a stint on the show.... so I wanted to tune in and see what my potential roommates would of looked like....

wow.

MTV really has I believe officially thrown out the whole idea or concept of having this represent real life and show people work around issues and instead have subscribed to having a debaucherous-drinking-palooza!  

So sad....

I feel you could do quite a bit with the show.  Have them dealing with issues that people our age (18-26) are dealing with in America in the year 2008..... or how many bars they can go to in a fourth month period.  

I do have to admit that I used to watch the show quite a bit.  My favorite seasons were New Orleans, Hawaii, and Austin.  At least with Austin they had an Iraqi veteran and a Black Power person.  The Hollywood cast?  There's a woman who wants to be a "news" anchor on Inside Edition or Entertainment Tonight.  GAG.  I found a great article from the Huffington Post on it...as well as one of the best quotes.... 

"Really, MTV? A stripper and a personal trainer? Isn't that what True Life: The Jersey Shore is for?"
