Rwsbetter | Thursday, June 21, 2001 - 08:57 pm     If you haven't seen it yet, there's more background on the new NY house in today's NY Times. You can go to www.nytimes.com and find it in the Living section. You will have to register if you haven't already. |
Rwsbetter | Friday, June 22, 2001 - 12:39 am     Here's a picture of the new cast: NY Cast. They look younger every year (I know it's just me getting older, dang). |
Danzdol | Friday, June 22, 2001 - 06:50 am     So RR is June 26th the premiere right after the Casting Special and RW is on July 3rd? BigBrother on July 5.....My gosh...I am not going to have a life....... |
Danzdol | Friday, June 22, 2001 - 06:51 am     That cast, by the way, doesnst look too appealing........Judging by the picture |
Seamonkey | Friday, June 22, 2001 - 11:40 am     Well, just one picture, but I can't say I'm instantly ready to take one home with me..
Life?? wha's that?? |
Grooch | Friday, June 22, 2001 - 01:22 pm     Here are some Real World/Road Rules Interviews RW/RR |
Grooch | Monday, June 25, 2001 - 06:01 am     Here's an article on the upcoming 10th season. RW 10th Season |
Danzdol | Wednesday, June 27, 2001 - 07:45 am     I loved the casting special yesterday. I wish they would have chosen Angel...he seemed pretty cool.....and the guy from North Dakota who was sooo intense and so hot. Now I am confused,RW is July 3rd , when is RR? |
Grooch | Wednesday, June 27, 2001 - 08:41 am     Darn I missed it. |
Guinevere | Wednesday, June 27, 2001 - 08:54 am     Hm, Danzdol, I was glad they didn't pick Angel or the guy from North Dakota - they both seemed like homophobes. The guy from North Dakota (Dylan?) was so uptight about the other guys being in drag. I was disappointed they didn't pick the guy from Mississippi, the one that was, um, teaching Coral to swim. He was cute, and I would've like to see that relationship develop. I couldn't stand Mike; wish he hadn't gotten picked. I liked Coral (who seemed to be the star of the show to me, she got the most airtime), Lori, Malik and Kevin. Rachel was okay but such a cliche - innocent virgin. I kind of liked the other Rachel; I felt bad she wasn't chosen. I didn't like the vain bald black guy (can't remember his name), but he was SOOO broken up over not getting picked, I felt sorry for him. Should be interesting times ahead! |
Max | Wednesday, June 27, 2001 - 08:57 am     I missed it, too (my satellite dish gives me the east-coast feed, so I wasn't home in time to see it), but they'll show it multiple times. Just check http://www.mtv.com/ for the schedule. Now, if only I can remember to convert those east-coast times to west-coast and turn the TV on at the right moment! |
Danzdol | Wednesday, June 27, 2001 - 09:12 am     Guinevere, I think his name was Segun? There is one guy who made it that they harbly focused on during the show....I was surprised since everyone else that made it got shown a lot. I did like the Mississippi guy too. I liked them all except that guy I just mentioned above..he was not in any story line. I think the North Dakota guy would have eventually changed his mind if he lived in the house and it would have affected him in a positive way ...the same with Angel....which is why I thought they should have gotten picked... When does Road Rules begin? |
Misslibra | Wednesday, June 27, 2001 - 10:54 am     I missed it to I'll have to catch it on Saturday. I don't know when RR starts. |
Max | Wednesday, June 27, 2001 - 11:00 am     According to the MTV website, RR10 starts July 9th. |
Danzdol | Wednesday, June 27, 2001 - 11:32 am     But isnt RW on tuesdays? I am confused....7/9 is a tuesday as well....?/;''@#$%^& |
Penpoint | Thursday, June 28, 2001 - 03:11 pm     If they stick to the past schedule, Road Rules is shown on Mondays and Real World on Tuesdays, both in the "10 Spot" (9 Central). |
Seamonkey | Thursday, June 28, 2001 - 11:33 pm     looking on www.tvguide.com On the 9th, Monday, I see RR at 10 for an hour On the 10th, Tuesday RW from 9-10 pm PST Check your own cable system for your area |
Danzdol | Friday, June 29, 2001 - 09:42 am     thank you! |
Max | Sunday, July 01, 2001 - 04:55 pm     Here's an article about the new RW cast. Apparently, Nicole (the girl who says she's from the ghetto) graduated from Benson High School here in Portland, Oregon in 1996. Now, Portland certainly has some poor areas and some downright bad neighborhoods, but I sure wouldn't call it the Ghetto! Maybe she was referring to where she's lived SINCE high school. Anyway, here's the link to the story from today's Oregonian newspaper: Portland's 'Real World' housemate is 'the angry one' |
Seamonkey | Sunday, July 01, 2001 - 06:39 pm     My paper TV Guide shows REAL WORLD for an hour after yet another repeat of the casting special.. special at 8pm pst, Real World at 10. It doesn't SAY it is the new one,but think so. If so, then it starts July 3. Now I wonder if that is why the first BB was moved from July 3 to July 5?? Friday/Sat looks like Road Rules marathon time.. there was a RW marathon this weekeend, Hawaii and New Orleans. Also the second BB on Saturday |
Seamonkey | Sunday, July 01, 2001 - 06:45 pm     Just read that article which said RW begins Wednesday!! Conflicts withthe TV guide tho. |
Ryn | Sunday, July 01, 2001 - 07:13 pm     I swear on the casting special tonight they said RW starts Tommorow |
Max | Sunday, July 01, 2001 - 07:37 pm     Just look at http://www.mtv.com and adjust for your local time slot or satellite feed. Why bother with anything else when you can get the info directly from the source? |
Seamonkey | Sunday, July 01, 2001 - 11:51 pm     Ryn.. I would swear they said tomorrow too But per Max's suggestion I went to mtv.com and after clicking thru a few screens, it said the same thing as the tv guide i get with my newspaper. Max.. probably just out of habit. The tvguide summarizes, for my cable system, what i'd have to check jillions of websites to find out. They have certainly run the casting special over and over.. it is on again tomorrow afternoon, when it will be correctly saying "tomorrow" the season starts. |
Rwsbetter | Tuesday, July 03, 2001 - 04:37 pm     Is everyone ready for RW? I'm so sick of the Hawaii and N.O. casts, I'm looking forward to some new blood. It was good to watch Seattle this weekend. P.S. Have you had that experience with MTV that the commercial breaks are so long that you forget what show you're watching? |
Seamonkey | Tuesday, July 03, 2001 - 06:27 pm     That has been known to happen Hopefully not tonight. |
Seamonkey | Wednesday, July 04, 2001 - 11:41 am     So, what did y'all think? Coral.. looking for a fight, seems to me. Great "house"!!!! |
Rwsbetter | Wednesday, July 04, 2001 - 12:39 pm     I like this cast! Coral seems tough, but she's got a heart in there somewhere. Kevin reminds me of a young Bill Clinton. I love Malik. I live near Berkeley and he represents us well! I can also tell I'm going to like Rachel. |
Seamonkey | Wednesday, July 04, 2001 - 08:19 pm     Malik is a sweetheart!!! (I graduated from Berkeley back in the day) Rachel too. The potential couple.. well, he's just too sure of himself, imo.. and his talk in passive voice.. "if a kiss happens.." hey, guy, you can CHOOSE action. The girl is cute; too bad she's so hung up on him. But lotsa potential. Interesting to have more "color" than not. Rachel, I think, will be open to all. She doesn't seem to feel the least bit intimidated as a "minority". The dude from Cleveland.. I mean, Cleveland?? Cleveland is an excuse for racial (and really just human) ignorance?? He needs to listen more. He can learn a bunch. Coral, to me, has been hurt, is very guarded, and yes, I think there is much to her. |
Danzdol | Thursday, July 05, 2001 - 08:07 am     I loved the season preview at the end of the show it seemed promising..... Oh no my addiciton is starting....Monday RR -Tuesday BB and RW -Thursdays/Saturdays BB....... |
Grooch | Monday, July 23, 2001 - 03:00 pm     Nine Arrested in 'Real World' Protest CHICAGO (AP) -- Nine people were arrested outside the house where MTV's ''The Real World'' is being taped, saying they fear the show will bring more gentrification in the North Side neighborhood. The nine were arrested late Saturday and charged with misdemeanor disorderly conduct. Police said protesters gathered shortly before midnight in front of the building in the Wicker Park neighborhood where the show is being taped. Some blocked traffic on the street and some attempted to stop an officer from questioning one who was writing in chalk on the sidewalk, police said. Various groups have been mounting occasional protests outside the house for several weeks. They maintain the taping is forcing out the artists and hipsters who made Wicker Park popular. ''I think it's absurd that what's passing as an artsy neighborhood has a Starbucks on one corner and a house sponsored by a megacorporation like (MTV parent) Viacom on the other corner,'' said protest spokesman Salem Collo-Julin. ''The Real World,'' now in its 10th season, tapes the lives of seven strangers who have agreed to live together. It has been taped in several cities over the years including Los Angeles, Boston, San Francisco, Miami, Seattle and London. AP-NY-07-23-01 0909EDT< |
Grooch | Thursday, July 26, 2001 - 09:11 am     Viacom Challenges Charity Over Name NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) -- A Tennessee charity that sends young adults to high schools to inspire students is in a dispute with media conglomerate Viacom Inc. over its name. Viacom argues that the name ''Love in the Real World'' is too similar to ''The Real World,'' a show that airs on MTV, which it owns. ''We feel they've picked us out because we're the weakest link,'' said Peter Batarseh, who runs the non-profit Love in the Real World. ''It's almost like MTV fights character education.'' The dispute is set to be heard in September by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office in Arlington, Va. The final day of the legal discovery period was Wednesday. ''The Real World,'' a program featuring footage of young people chosen to live together, is in its 10th season. Love in the Real World was founded in 1996, and the name dispute began when the charity filed for trademark protection. Viacom objected. '''The Real World' mark is famous ... and subsequent use of a virtually identical mark will dilute (its) mark by blurring and tarnishment,'' Viacom argues in its complaint. The ''Real World'' term is used by more than 100 companies, 53 of them registered for trademarks, Batarseh said. He thinks it has become generic, and wants to use the term ''Love in the Real World'' on his organization's cassettes, CDs and clothing. The song ''Here in the Real World'' was a hit for Alan Jackson in 1990. (PROFILE (CO:Viacom Inc; TS:VIA; IG:ENT;) ) AP-NY-07-26-01 0820EDT< 07/26/2001 |
