So I caught the preview for RW: Denver this morning and I had no idea that they were even going to Denver next. Granted, the RW lost me around the time of Paris...but this season appears to be more exciting than the last couple of seasons.

Of course they have the same ole Drama Kings and Queens...hook ups...arguments...a roommate leaving...blah, blah, blah...I think this season may catch my attention.

One thing that I did notice is that they have two black males...I don't remember that ever being the case before...the problem, from the preview they appear to be two angry black males (they are both arguing with roommates in the house and are shown as the only ones arguing with the roommates). Yea. One step forward...two steps back. <_< However, despite this the show looks kind of promising (for people who love to watch drama king and queens act like fools ;))

Oh Wow - I was wondering where the next Real World would be....For some reason I obsess over the city they choose. Sad.

Anyway haven't seen the promo yet - but I'll give it a shot. For the past 7 seasons, it seems like I watch the first 4-5 episodes and then grow tired of the cast and forget to watch the rest of the season. lol

The last GOOD season was Seattle btw.

And yeah I can't remember them having 2 black guys in a season - They've done 2-3 black girls in a season before (NY2, Vegas) - but yeah - cool.

It starts November 7th or 17th...I was so caught up in the arguing that I missed the date.

As for Seattle...I HATED that season, what a bad follow up to Boston. Stephen...embarassment and was it David who basically had the breakdown and had to go to the hospital because of his girlfriend? And Irene...I just hated the cast.

LOL -I guess we all have different tastes. I agree that Boston was awesome, but I thought Seattle was just as entertaining.

I loved the whole Irene/Stephen thing...that boy was CRAZY. I love the city Seattle anyway - and the pier they lived on - I just loved it all. David was probably the one thing I didn't like - and his little fling with the Real World exec/producer thing was stupid - but yeah - he was too emotional about certain things.

Oh and I loved that Lindsay chick - she was so cool.

Then I thought Hawaii had so much potential - but fell flat when Ruthie left and it became the Amaya/Colin show. That love story made me SICK. lol

the only Real World I've seen is Key West, as we just got MTV Canada this year. We had some other MTVish channel on satelite, but it was not widley carried.

I thought Key West was good. I didnt watch every episode, but I thought it was enjoyable. Paula's drama made it interesting.

Funny bc just the other day I was thinking that it was surpisning that there wasnt another season of RW on the air

I HATED Las Vegas. That ranks as one of the worst seasons after London. I think the last great season was Chicago. Everything went downhill from there. I think B2NY was the turning point and nothing was the same since. You can see a drastic difference in the show's first 9 seasons and the ones after that one

I totally agree! This was the first season that i actually watched as it aired, later on i would see some of the seasons before it, when they would do the marathons before the new seasons, but New Orleans will always be my favorite!

    • I think they’re desperately trying to cover his awful tattoos. But anyway them being unable to style short kings properly has been a major pet peeve of mine for a while now.  I honestly don’t understand what some people expect from actors to even begin considering them for recognition. Let’s be real—awards mostly mean that an actor is respected by their peers and has some level of cultural relevance. Actual judgment on the acting itself? That’s often secondary—highly subjective and shaped by the times. I completely agree on both points. If you’re an actor or a dancer you shouldn’t get any tattoos (sorry not sorry). Tomas’ tattoos are ugly too. And regarding the couples- you’re completely right. These writers are unable to write romance.   Further comments: - Kat cannot be this dumb to keep tampering with evidence over and over again. And I’m officially not a fan of the actress—every time she’s in a scene with Leslie, she doesn’t seem intimidated at all. She plays it like comic relief, which is just too much, especially when paired with Leslie’s histrionics and over-the-top antics. Leslie is older, dangerous, and has literally been portrayed as homicidal—Kat should be at least a little scared. • I also didn’t like Kat playing damsel in distress with the hotel manager. It gave off the same weird energy as Dani with the cop. I would’ve much preferred the version Paul Raven suggested, with her sneaking in through housekeeping. • And yes, Dani again accused Hayley of faking the pregnancy—this time even specifying she might be using a pillow under her shirt. (No fake miscarriage being mentioned) I stand by my take: this is ridiculous writing. No one in the real world—except us, the chronically online soap watchers—would even think of such a conspiracy theory. Haley is no Beyoncé. • What in the world was Chelsea wearing in her hair the other day? And this whole thing with Madison is beyond cringe. Chelsea’s coming off as needy and toxic—basically like every other Dupree. • I’m glad the casino storyline is moving forward, but it’s still boring as hell. Honestly, I’d be so here for a plot twist where Vanessa and Doug take Joey out. • The direction and editing lately have been rough. Abrupt cuts, weird pacing… something just feels off overall. There’s a strange uneasiness to how it’s all coming together. • And finally: Tomas is too much of a saint. Where are the messy sluts when you need them? (Vanessa doesn’t count.)
    • I was watching some August 1987 episodes and they brought back so many memories. I had some thoughts: Lisa and Jamie were so dull. Lisa was such a nothing character. It boggles my mind that so much story was centered around her in such a short amount of time. Joanna Going is a talented actress, but the material was just not there.  It was so good to see Wallingford and Mitch again. I know there was talk about Felicia a while back, but these episodes reminded me how integral Felicia was for the show.  Sally Spencer was done so dirty. She is turning in superb performances in an icky storyline. I wish she had stuck around longer. She has chemistry with everyone. The McKinnons should have lasted longer. Spencer had some strong stuff with Stephen Schnetzer and Mary Alexander. AW waster such a talented actress by getting rid of her. Justice for Cheryl too. I also missed Ed Fry when he left. Sandra Ferguson was a star from the moment she came on. She was charismatic and just popped. She had immediate chemistry with RKK and blended in well with Wyndham and Watson. I'd forgotten about the teenage Matthew.  I have no memory of Peggy Lazarus. She must not have lasted long. Was the original plan for John that he was going to turn out to be the twins' real father?      
    • If the new and improved copies that @rsclassicfanforever has uploaded can be manually moved into the "by month, by year" folders, that would be awesome. I personally don't think it's necessary to keep the older versions (which either have Dutch subtitles hard coded on them, or are lesser in picture quality). That's a lot of valuable drive space that could be cleared. Just my view but can appreciate others may feel differently. The structure had been by month by year previously, so I think it would be easier to conform to that, where so much prior work to get it to that format has already been done. Hopefully you can "drag and drop" so the new copies are in the right month/year? Re Clips, I never look at them now we pretty much have the episodes in full. Appreciate others may use, however. Thanks for all your hard work here @BoldRestless!
    • Oh yes defintely, Josh Griffith repeats and repeats the same storylines.
    • Isnt’t this storyline similar to the Cameron Kirsten situation though? Sharon thought she killed him. He ended up being alive and Sharon was being tormented with thinking she was seeing his face everywhere and that’s how we got that iconic scene with her and Nikki in the sewers.   I understand in Mariah’s case this is different circumstances but it does seem like a play on that whole thing. Maybe I’m wrong. I just wish if they were going to make any character follow in Sharon’s foot steps it would be Faith. Mariah wasn’t even raised by her, and her personality is different. I would expect her to take a different path. I understand I could be completely jumping ahead because the storyline hasn’t even played out yet but we’ll see. 
    • Thanks again @Paul Raven Monica was completely without redeeming qualities at this point. I always found the whole Monica = Carly narrative regressive, as I don't think shows comparing characters so heavily is ever a great idea, but she's actually worse than Carly was. Was it the Pollocks who had Leslie have a miscarriage?  Giving her a child, especially by rape, was not a good idea, but a part of me wishes they'd committed to it just to see what story it might have had in later years.
