The Real World: Hollywood House Is Shock Corridor

Last night, season 102 of the Real World had its premiere episode. The premiere episode is really the only one of the entire season in which you are given five minutes of breathing room before everyone gets drunk and starts dancing on something/someone. Because they have to get to the house first. You can't get drunk and start dancing on stuff in the car over to the house. Yet. I'm sure they're working on that for the eighth decade of this show.

And, of course, the premiere episode always features the "exciting" walk-through of the new house, with obligatory gushing and squealing and room-calling of the new residents.

It looks like a movie, for sure. A movie about an INSANE PERSON. What a nightmare. It looks like it was designed by a 14-year-old stock broker who still sleeps/pees in his race car bed and lives with his parents Pee-Wee and Ikea.

They actually do live on a sound stage in the middle-of-nowhere LA. It's nearish to the capitol records building, and there's a Roscoe's House of Chicken Waffles a block away THE LUCKY FUCKS.

Somebody once said that the worst part about LA are the people who move there from other places.

So to all the snarky, brooklyn-based bloggers, please remember this show is in Hollywood, which is a tiny percentage of what LA is all about, and also, these jerkoffs are from all around the country, not from LA.

thanks.

Is this still a reality show? Because that did not seem very, um, real. "oh my god, a sauna!" "I love saunas!" Pfft.

And oh gee, look at those Subway sandwiches!

The Real World needs to either radically change and cast people who are actually interesting... or just give it up and let the show die already. But this... this is just not working.
