Its about time.. friend sent me this Thursday, October 07, 2004 It's About Freakin' Time MTV has finally removed its head from its ass. After years of watching cities that nobody really wanted to see like Paris and Philadelphia, MTV is bringing "The Real World" to Atlanta. First off, I am biased because I currently live in Atlanta. I can admit that. But I have seen many of the great cities in this country and across the world in my 25-plus years, and I think Atlanta can hold a candle to almost any of them...especially in the manner in which MTV is looking for. I love Atlanta for all of its history, its people, its entertainment, its dining, its party scene...I could go on for hours. Atlanta is a great place to live (if you can survive the suburban sprawl), and I am excited that the rest of the world will finally get a chance to see what the city has to offer. My source: Q100 radio. According to the morning show, they were at a casting call event (I think) here in Atlanta last night, and the "Real World" producers were attending as well. The producers said that the show's 16th season will be taking place in Atlanta, that the cast has almost been finalized, and that the living space has not be officially selected yet, but they are looking for a loft possibly in Midtown. The show is set to begin taping this winter and will air some time in the first half of 2005. My message to the MTV family: "Welcome To Atlanta".

I had about given up on Real World. I watched San Fran but haven't been watching Philadelphia. Anyway... I live in Atlanta too, so I'm looking forward to this one! I can't wait!! I agree- we have a great city!

Finally!!! I think ATL will be a great host city for RW - I'm a city dweller and have enjoyed living in Atlanta since I arrived 6 yrs ago. There is so much to do whatever your interests are and the night life - do I need to even say anything about that, it speaks for itself. Of course it would have been better to hit ATL during the spring/early summer months as the city seems to be more alive than in the winter months, but oh well. The rest of the country will get to see how freaked out southerners get when a little snow & ice hits the roads!
