Am I the only one who remembers the debauchery of the early seasons? Granted it's much worse now, but didn't the Miami cast have a threesome in a shower at some point? I think they were season 4 or 5.

ETA: what's with snarkyness over who's old enough to have seen the early RW seasons? Calm down, it's reality t.v.

I think the best season was the first season. But, I think that's true of most things.

Thank you.

Even season one had Becky sleeping with one of the guys from the crew. I still like the original seasons better. When the first season came on I dreamt about the day that I would be old enough to be on Real World. Then Road Rules came on and that was even better! Let's not forget that Mark and Kat hooked up the first season and Los tried to hook up with the Native American girl that same season.

Season 2 of RW had sexual assault (real or perceived?), an abortion, a wedding and lesbian Beth irking straight Beth. Honest to God real life issues!

Now it's drunken rants followed by sober rants followed by drunken "I love you. You are my best friend. Let's make out." :roll eyes:

Season 2, the biggest drinker was the Irish guy and I don't think he could hang with any of the recent cast.

The point is, is that those were all shocking. And let's face it, unfortunately MTV sets the standards for what teens and young adults are into. They start getting sexual and selling sex, other mediums will take on that plan.

And to answer your question... I just have no respect for people who think the way some of these people do... ie: asking why Parisa is even there cuz she's like a mom.

I just watched this week's episode online...and I was LMAO at Parisa getting carried home drunk after making such a big deal about being "over" all that stuff. I was a little surprised at Kelly Anne's lack of involvement in this episode...she kind of just followed Trisha around the whole time and seemed like a little puppy. I guess it's okay though cause at least that way she didn't say anything of sub-human intelligence. And, Shauvon's "confession-of-shame" the morning after her hookup was heartbreaking!

Trisha is such a jerk. I was glad to see Kelly Anne being nicer this week than last. And I like Parisa. She's VERY naive and will undoubtedly have trouble in the house because of it, but she's a sweet girl nonetheless.

So who do we think is going to get kicked off the show next week? Trisha or Parissa?

I saw a preview where it showed Trisha push Parisa and she fell over.....so my guess would be Trisha. I have to say, I won't be sad to see her horrendously bad hair go home. Seriously....pick a color and go with it. None of this two toned blond on the top and dark brown on the bottom hair.

Omigosh I'm so with you on the hair thing. I HATE two-toned hair. I've not seen a single person that it actually looks good on (not even on TV). I mean there's ALWAYS something that would like better on the girl... ick!!

So glad someone else brought that up. Parisa is SO far from being fat. In my opinion anyway.

KellyAnne was probably off somewhere laughing at Parisa's drunkeness after making such a big deal about how she's not baby-sitting the entire season. I know I would've been! Atleast KellyAnne didn't need to be carried home!

Also, I LOVED when Cuhotta made the comment about Trisha not being THAT crazy about her boyfriend, or else she wouldn't have hooked up with someone else. Exactly what I was thinking!

Thoughts on last night's episode?

Bottom line, I couldn't believe Parissa wrote Dunbar a note. Is this 8th grade?? I thought it was funny how she was comparing her relationship with Dunbar to his and KellyAnne's, saying "I know he respects me" while he's telling KellyAnne he can't stand her. I can't wait for Dunbar's girlfriend to visit.

I was really liking Parissa up until that point. I still like her anytime, other than when it comes to Dunbar.

I still think Trisha is a tw*t.

I love Isaac.

Agree with you on Trisha and Isaac. He's probably my favorite cast member (except for Dunbar, but that's only for his looks).
