Once upon a time I vowed that I would continue to watch the RR forever so that I could keep up with the times for when my future children were older. Well, it looks like I won't be having children and I just can't stomache the raunchy behavior that takes place season after season of the RR. I guess I am too "old" for the RR.

Colie looks like a combo of Robin & Jodi.

Lurkin, I keep thinking Colie looks like a taller Robin also. Brook reminds me of Suzanne Sugarbaker from Designing Women.

LOL, Rehtse! I was starting to feel like a curmudgeon, or a prude, or just really old!!! I also liked the "old" Real World, and I don't remember even a fraction of the promiscuity I see here. What happened? Have the young ones changed that much? Or has the production just gone out of its way to find the "right" cast. Just add generous amounts of liquor and stir...

The "old" Real World had young people that actually had a job or put forth a little effort on the job that was set up by the RW producers. Now the cast acts like going to bars is their job. And that should be bad right? LOL Maybe but so far I haven't missed a show so maybe I DO like to see what they do in bars and how they act in the hot tub.
I sometimes eat with a friend in the Food Court at the local mall once in a while and we watch teenagers walking by because it's hard not to notice them as they are all trying to be noticed. It's kind of funny the guys are covered head to toe in layers of heavy clothing (cause it's cold) but the girls have on skimpy short, short skirts with tiny blouses and a coat that doesn't reach their waist and all of them have cell phones and all of them feel the need to talk very loudly. I think some of them have already lost their hearing or something.

Why do I feel like this season is like a poorly produced porno movie? Within 36 hours, Alex has made out w/ one roommate, slept w/ another, the 3 of them were making out in a bar together, after the 2nd roommate slept w/ Alex, she is taking a shower, and the first roommate is in there staring at her naked body and discovers the hickey. Why is she staring at her in the first place? She gets pissed and goes out and brings another man home and is making out w/ him. In the mean time, the 2 girls are suddenly best, best friends that anyone can ever have and they are going to be in each other's wedding one day, and when they were talking about what happened w/ Alex, they keep repeating how they "love" each other, and yada, yada, yada.....

I don't want to even see any of these people on the next challenge. I see maybe one person with any potential & that is the southern girl. The other 2 girls seem so trashy to me. The big black guy needs anger mgmt. They need to take the alcohol away from Davis.

I would really like for the "Real World" to get back to its roots. Maybe I am naive or maybe things were that much different 17 years ago when I was starting college, but I don't remember kids "getting it on" as much as they do on the RW. What a sad state of events if this is really how kids are today. I suspect that most kids are still somewhat moral, decent, and have self-respect. The vast majority of the kids that have been on the RW since about the Boston cast have been nothing but a bunch of self-degrading, immature kids. Okay, I'll stop preaching...don't hate me, I live in the Bible belt!

Rehtse, I don't think it is an accurate picture of what most young adults are like. I think they find the most partying people they can find. My kids are around this age and I haven't seen it among them or their friends.

Key West RR wasn't so raunchy. They actually highlighted many of the non-bar situations. The cast seemed to take pride and spend quite a bit of time at the Tanning Salon and in the house. I think a lot of it has to do with the cast they pick.

What was with all the baby whining last night? Brooke was way over the top and even Colie with the whole crying for mommy when she got the IV. But Brooke. I guess she was just too upset about not getting her nails done.

When going through channels I've come across RW fairly often. (Seems to me like MTV is really pushing it right now. It's always on.) I tried to watch some, but just can't get into it this season. I find myself losing interest after a minute or two and either changing the channel or wandering off to do something else. Like to at least try and familiarize myself a little with the cast so I know a little bit of their backstory when they show up on future challenges! LOL

I couldn't believe the drama over the IV, but also couldn't believe that her roomies didn't go with her. They really do seem very whiney this year.

I sure hope that when Jenn watches these shows, she sees what a horrible drunk she is and gets some help.

Mamie, I keep hoping she sees that before the show is over and gets help. She's a real nasty drunk.
