Hawaii was good, I liked Chicago too. But I have to say, I really do like Paris - I think there is a lot of unintentional humor in this one! ; )

An incident occured at the house for next season in San Diego....It's important to mention this has nothing directly to do with any of the cast or crew, and the producers are cooperating with the police, and it's serious.... http://www.nbcsandiego.com/entertainment/2665151/detail.html Woman Says She Was Raped In 'Real World' House Victim Blacks Out After Being Given Drink POSTED: 5:35 p.m. PST November 25, 2003 UPDATED: 7:06 p.m. PST November 25, 2003 SAN DIEGO -- San Diego Police said Tuesday they are investigating a 22-year-old woman's allegations that she was raped in the oceanfront home where MTV is filming the latest season of its Real World reality program. The woman, who is not a cast member of the television show, said she believes she was assaulted between Nov. 14 and Nov. 15 at the home, which serves as the production area and living quarters for the cast and crew. The woman told investigators she went to a downtown nightclub on Nov. 14, where she met a man who was an acquaintance of one of the The Real World San Diego cast members. The woman told police she consumed a drink offered by the man and then blacked out. She said that when she awoke the next morning at 10:30 a.m., she was fully clothed and on a bed in the guest room of the The Real World house, being filmed by a camera crew. The woman had some pain in her genital area and believed that someone had sex with her while she was unconscious, according to court documents. A person whose name was not released told a female cast member that the man who gave the drink to the alleged victim had left the home saying, "I just hit that." The unidentified person found the woman lying naked on the bathroom floor. The person dressed her and moved her to a living room couch. The female cast member returned to the home the morning of Nov. 15 and saw the woman on the couch. The cast member and the unidentified person then moved her to the guest bedroom. The cast member woke the woman and told her she may have been sexually assaulted in the bathroom the night before, according to court documents. The cast member then arranged for the woman to get home. The woman reported the alleged rape to police on Nov. 16. A medical examination performed the same day revealed lacerations in her genital area. Thirty cameras are mounted throughout the house, recording images from every area except the home's two bathrooms. The cameras are monitored 24 hours a day, according to an MTV producer. Police served a search warrant on the house on Nov. 18, seizing bedding, towels, couch cushions, video tape equipment, taped footage and computer equipment to be processed for evidence. Police had not made any arrests in the case Tuesday. No The Real World cast or crew members were suspected in the alleged assault. Police would not comment on the suspect named by the alleged victim. Officials interviewed potential witnesses Tuesday, after some cast members who were in the house at the time of the alleged assault returned from a trip to Mexico. MTV's The Real World documents the lives of seven strangers living together. Thirteen seasons of the series have already aired, including the most recent, The Real World Paris. MTV hired the outside production company Bunim-Murray Productions to produce all of its The Real World shows. The network and the production company said they were cooperating fully with San Diego Police. The producers released the following statement Tuesday: "The producers of The Real World and the cast are cooperating fully with local authorities investigating an incident that may have occurred at The Real World house. None of the cast or crew members had any involvement in this incident." Real World San Diego is still in production, according to MTV, and is scheduled to premiere in January.

If there is still a pending court case they wouldn't be able to air it. I am still trying to figure out what kind of an idiot not only commits a crime like this, but does it in a house full of cameras.

So the season finale was last night, right? Did anything happen that didn't justify me sleeping?

Nothing much really happened. CT admitted to not visiting the one place they did a write up for, but Leah did not. They guys played a joke on the girls, pretending to be drunk and eating all the pizza and CT didn't go out with them on their final night together. They also showed Mal in the confessional saying that she would miss her and Ace's secret romance. Hard to say how serious she was about it or when during the season it was even recorded.

It really was kind of a letdown. It was boring and I honestly had a hard time paying attention to it.

With both Joe Millionare and this finale I feel that there was not enough of a detalied ending. It left me hanging and wanting to know more........At least with RW there is another reunion show next week. I liked CT's hair on it from the quick shot I saw.

No kidding about it being so uninteresting.. I had it recorded and managed to backtrack a few times to get the updates, which were visual only.. I have a habit of listening to some programs.. anyway what I remember: Leah does not have cancer. She has not seen or visited Guiseppe. Ace returned to run his three bars. Adam is living with his mom in LA. Simon.. don't remember. Darn.. at least one of the other women is working on a degree and.. well.. slipped my mind. It should repeat before the reunion show. I'm SURE Mallory was just spoofing about her "relationship" Oh and the last night they brought all the mattresses and pillows downstairs and all slept on the floor together. As for the San Diego rape.. per The Smoking gun and other sources (see the San Diego thread) the producers weren't all that cooperative.. for one thing remember there are cameras all over the house..

Simon-returned to Ireland and is still with his b/f that we saw on the show. Christina-returned to LV and she is the one in graduate school. CT-is living at home while attending college and NO we do not all have that awful Boston accent!!! Sea-Mallory and Ace were a couple outside of the house..we'll see Tuesday if they still are.

Thanks for the info Wilson. It seems unbelievable that they don't have this on tape, they must know who did it, cuz when he left saying "he hit it" (god what a disgusting pig!), they must've caught that. Well I hope they catch the guy and maybe it can be mentioned on the show when it airs, I mean, this is supposed to be real, this sure is real.

OK, I saw the lame lame lame reunion show tonight. And you know what? I think it actually makes me dislike the cast from this season even more than I did before. The only possible exception was Christina, who was always the most enjoybale, if vacuous, anyhow. It really amazes me because some seasons--like CHicago--have had really revelatory reunion shows. I remember thinking Tonya was an evil so and so, but she redeemed herself so much on that show to me, saying how much she disliked herself on the show and demonstrating a bit of introspection, that I actually STILL have a soft spot for her. But don't tell anybody. So here's what went down. Simon wasn't there. Predictable. Leah was rollling her eyes and trying to defend herself. She had ringlets curled in her hair, which made me think she was going to visit the guy in Florence, but I was probably the only one to think that she wasted lots of time curling her hair when she saw that guy. Ace was acting awwwww shuchs. Adam had a better haircut but still only a trace of a spine. Mallory bravely wore glasses and said nothing substantial, except that she and Ace have been dating for two months. She has also gone to a few strip clubs since the end of the show, which is probably a good way for her to keep track of her two-month relationship with Ace. CT had a very short haircut and seemed almost pleasant for brief stretches, then acted bored. Adam said he likes CT better now that he doesn't live with him and doesn't have to be around him much. CHristina has made the bad fashion choice of having a LARGE patch of red-orange hair on the top of her head. It almost makes her look bad, but not quite. So nothing has changed, really.

The reunion show made me gag constantly. Low point - Ace saying he felt lost in Paris because "nobody" spoke English. News flash to Ace - most people under 50 in Paris speak some ENglish, many fluently. BUT if you come with the attitude that everyone should speak it right away to you, most people quickly rebuff you. It's a question of attitude. This group (apart from Simon's) attitude sucked, and they got the response they deserved.

Methinks Real World has jumped the shark. This cast was so boring and bland and vacuous (excelleng word choice Tishala) that I've forgotte them already. Most notable moment of the reunion show was the host (La La? What kind of name is THAT?!) pointing out that Simon was mostly absent from the show, especially the things where the whole group was hanging out. Good for Simon! I'd be absent from this group, too.

The reunion was very boring. The host was horrible and just blah and the cast was no better. Hopefully, San Diego will be better.

I agree with you all. Real World Paris was a complete disappointment. The so called Reunion show was even worse than the season itself. No one answered any questions and the audience was silent. Nothing against LaLa the host, but she's not very interesting either, she looked bored the entire show. LOL Even the footage we never got to see was dull.

I agree with all of the above. I thought Leah was even MORE obnoxious. Heard more from Simon than in the entire show I'd much rather see a host from a past BB house; they certainly have plenty of them running around and they at least have "been there". Never heard of the host she just seems irrelevant. Nothing much to care about in this bunch. San Diego, well we are being pre-slimed with the unsavory parts, so I am not going into that with high hopes.

I guess none of you watch the show TRL (Total Request Live) on MTV. LaLa shares hosting duties on that show. I agree..the reunion show was lame! Very disappointing. I figured Bunim/Murray were just too cheap to fly Simon from Ireland. What was with all that kissing between Leah & CT? Hated his hair btw...JMO. Adam looked cleaner with his new "do". Looks like Christina had a highlighting party in her head that went totally wrong.
