Out of curiousity, why would you hate anyone from an MTV reality show? I ask because there is an entire thread of girls/boys from MTV shows that are Greek. Heck, we have a sister who was on Road Rules. Yes, on Road Rules she wasn't perceived incredibly well (hell I thought she was a whiney little bleep) but that is what MTV does. I mean they follow these people around for 4-6 months, filming 24/7 and then they have to cut that footage down to what about 12-15 episodes that are a half an hour long. You are going to lose a lot of footage and the editors decide what "characters" each of those people are going to play.

I'm just curious. Is it based on how they act on the shows? Or personal (like you've met some that aren't very nice)?

Like I said I'm just curious.
Well, I don't have personal experience, so my perception may be off. However, the more recent RW/RR shows seem to have people that aren't the classiest. That's not an insult to any particular organization they might be a member of, but many of their actions that I have seen would kind of make me embarrassed to have my letters attached to them. The earlier RR/RW were alright, but it's gone a bit downhill in my opinion. I don't watch either now because of that. I'm sure some are genuinely nice people, I just think many tend to act trashy on there. Creative editing, perhaps!
