But that's also when RW and MTV had an older demographic of viewers. MTV's shows have changed to reach a different viewership. I miss being able to catch the first few seasons of RW on syndication. They used to come on Fox in the afternoon a few years ago.

It will never be the Real World it was in the first few years. Nothing is more real than Puck or Pedro and everything those shows. I almost wish another station like Lifetime would have a Real Life or something and bring back the days of Heather B, Julie, Pedro, and all the others members that I miss and actually LEARNED from.

They were less manufactured. They were great.

Puck was one of the original assholes and he was gross. He's married with kids and stuff now.

This year's cast is a little lack luster. But I'm convinced that Stephen (I hope that's the black guy that's not Tyrie) is gay. Why does Brooke have boy shorts on to go hiking on the next episode? "I thought they looked like shorts" That's classic


Tyrie.....sigh......mmm mmm mmm

Yes, Stephen is latently gay. I think that's why he's so against homosexuality.

Yeah well she's prissy and seems to be very sheltered. I had faith in her in the beginning but obviously she's used to getting things her way and doesn't seem to have any skills in dealing with authority. It had to be awkward for the Outward Bound Instructor to call her out on "wiping herself" in the middle of camp...take a darn flashlight and walk a couple of yards. No one wants to see that. Oh and about her getting lost and not being able to find the nail place...ever heard of mapquest? public transportation? an actual map?

geez...

What's NOT going on with her? She is absolutely horrible. She couldn't rappel down the mountain (boo hoo hoo), she couldn't wear her boy shorts UNDERWEAR to hike in, she couldn't wash dishes (heaven forbid), she couldn't poop in the woods, she had to use a handy wipe to clean her vagina (she said it - right there on camera) & decided the best place to do so was right in the middle of the tents where her boss saw her & had to come discuss her professionalism with her (to which she said on camera that he was RUDE to point that out to her) -- he tried to tell her that she would be doing this with TEENAGERS and that she needed to be professional. She said something to the effect that she "knows" better when other people are around, but apparently, from the sound of it, she didn't care much about how the people she was with at the time felt about it.

Then when they got home, she fell out on the floor kicking around and acting the fool. Finally Alex called her out on her behavior & I thought for like .258 seconds she was going to pull the "depression/anxiety/meds" card, but she didn't (at least not what we saw). Sooo - that about wraps up the 30 minute show.

Oh - Colie couldn't go on the hike since her boss felt it would be too much on her recovery from mono, so she stayed at the camp with "Adam" another counselor. You didn't see anything on camera, but on the way home, she told the people in the car that they cuddled & that she gave him her number. She also said that she told him that if he didn't call her, she would definitely find him -- So, Colie is going to proceed with her class on "How to stalk a guy you just met" and we should be getting all the lessons from her in the following weeks.
