The Real World: Las Vegas


All My Shadows

I've never seen this season before, but apparrently, MTV has it set to be shown all night long! The last time they ever showed reruns of a previous season of RW, RR, or the Challenges was when they showed RR: South Pacific shortly before X-treme's debut, so this is a treat, no matter how bad the LV season supposedly is. I get to see FRANK again! I *loved* him on the second Battle of the Sexes!

Anyone know if they are rerunning any other seasons? I would die to see something from the glory days.

I too was very surprised to see MTV running a marathon of an old season of RW. They haven't done this in years...so when I turned on to see Las Vegas I was so shocked.

Las Vegas was just pure sinful and crazy...haha. Trishelle and Steven were sluts - the Alton/Irulan thing got old - and they just partied and partied and partied the entire time. I can't believe how sinful that season was!!! I think part of it had to do with them living in a penthouse at a casino - not just a typical house or city-life. It was just different.

I'd love it if MTV would run reruns of better old seasons like Miami, Boston, Seattle, San Fran, etc.

^^Yuck - Frankie and Jacquese would be the two reasons I wouldn't want to watch that season! lol - isn't it funny how everyone has different tastes?

Paris was just as bad - except the scenery was nice.

I don't know why they picked Las Vegas other than Trishelle has made it 'big' as a D-list reality-star. Other than that, I wonder why they'd randomly pick Las Vegas?

This show really peaked in quality and cultural impact during the San Francisco season. That, in most aspects, remains its most lauded and powerful season.

Personally, I think this show has been utter crap after the Hawaii season, from New Orleans on, it became a major pretentious bore. However, the London season is probably the worst, as no one remembers it. :lol:

You are dead on my friend! I'd say that it became utter crap right in the middle of Hawaii. After Ruthie had to leave, it became the Colin/Amaya show and became a major bore. Then from there on (with a possible exception of Chicago) every season has become a 'pretentious bore'. I usually watch the first half of the season and then end up forgetting about it or get tired of their s.h.i.t and might catch the reruns here and there, if that.

There was a poll for which RW season viewers wanted to see and the winning season would be aired. I think the choices were B2NY, LV, NO, Hawaii, and SD.

Watching LV and thinking about the way I saw it back when I was 18 or so, yes there was a whole lot of sex, but there a whole lot of drama too. The drama was fun to watch, but I couldn't help but shake my head at the fact that they were the same age I am now, and how damn immature they all were.

I only really watched the first 3 episodes of Austin and a few in reruns. Didnt seem too bad but then again I wasnt watching the whole season. I actually loved Philly. I thought the show had redeemed itself a bit. Still the last really good season was Chicago. I loved and enjoyed that one from beginning to end. I havent been able to say the same since. For the most part they've all been garbage. Paris was bad as well. Why cant they bring Road Rules back? That show really was becoming much better than RW towards the end. Loved South Pacific and the X-treme one

    • Dallas peaked early, IMO. Maybe not a fair statement as I’m still making my way through the first half of its run, but I think it’s hard to argue to point that S3 into S4 was its high point. Back to Knots. Wrapping up “And Never Brought to Mind.” Greg’s introduction kinda took me by surprise. I low-key dreaded his arrival bc I know he very quickly gets to the center of the show, but even though they wasted no time connecting him with Mac, Abby, Gary, and Karen, it still feels like a gradual intro. The juxtaposition of the ending of the Chip story with the heating up Abby’s plotting is quite symbolic of the changes the show was going through. I absolutely cannot imagine Kenny and Ginger having any part in any of this. Yall, the Gary/Val piano theme that they pull out from time to time is my FAVORITE. I find myself humming it constantly.
    • Bloodshed is inevitable now. It’s another reason I’m glad Black people aren’t getting involved in these protests. As awful as this is, I keep reminding myself that 54 percent of Latino men voted for Trump. These people were put in harm’s way by members of their own communities and sometimes even members of their own families. Too many people decided to touch the stove.
    • Maybe I'm still in denial, but nothing about Neighbours' ongoing social media output gives the vibe of a show that's ending. In today's 'Roundup' video, Alan Fletcher referenced that production finishes in five weeks, but in all the show's posts the cast are as jovial and lighthearted as ever. Remarkably so for people who are about to lose their jobs.    Perhaps they're just putting a brave face on things, and I know they approached the previous axing with a positive attitude. Maybe putting an upbeat face on things is a collective way of showing potential backers that there's still life in the show? Or is it possible that they already know the show has been saved, and we'll get an announcement next month when filming wraps and the show 'rests'?   Does any of that make sense?!
    • A very good week for male eye candy on GH. New Michael is beautiful, Curtis's arms looked great in that polo shirt, Cody looks even more handsome with his new haircut AND we got Marco in swim shorts rocking his lovely bod and chest fur.

    • Yeah when Jamey Giddens did breakdowns for DAYS, he would sometimes state in tweets that specific things were his idea that he had pitched to Ron.
    • I don't, since they've clearly incorporated them into Tomas' storyline, and I happen to like his tattoos, but his jackets not fitting doesn't mean they're trying to cover his tattoos. The clothing overall isn't the issue; it's the fit. And I expect(ed) more from Jeresa Featherstone and her team. Very disappointed. He's the only male, overall, whose costume irritates me.
    • "And OMG, watching the scenes of Roger's return in comparison...the quality in the writing really nosedived. The stupid mask." Very much agreed.  Having Roger hide behind a mask for weeks/months, with it culminating with him swinging in on a vine at Blake/Phillip's wedding....geez.  So juvenile. IMO, Guiding Light never did a good job reintroducing major characters, either from the dead or elsewhere.  Masked balls = awful.  Amish = awful. When Reva was brought back from the dead, she should've just showed up in Springfield as Reva, and informed everyone that she had been gone for years because she felt like it.  She had a four-year fling with some dude who ended up dumping her due to disloyalty. Josh would be pissed and declare that their love is not *always* but *sometimes* and he'd act accordingly.  Her kids would hate her.   
    • Agreed. The Emmys next year are gonna be a pretty tough competition and I hope we get a Days sweep lol  Not only does Deidre deserve a nomination for these last few weeks, but I also think Paul Telfer, Raven Bowens, Carson Boatman, Dan Feuerriegel and Alison Sweeney have good chances as well.
    • It’s not about a lack of faith and trust in MVJ, it’s about a a lack of faith and trust in Ron Carlivati, who I think can be very sneaky and manipulative when he wants to be.  And, all that “He’s just a breakdown writer” talk never changed my mind about anything, because at Days, it was “just a breakdown writer” that gave us some of the worst episodes I’ve ever seen.
