A little while back, there were rumblings about a “Laguna Beach” type show set in Brooklyn. There would be all the same drama, all the same fights, and all the same cliques, but the… socio-economic conditions (read: money and ethnicity) would be decidedly different.

It has arrived. Read more!

“The Real World” Premiere

Friday, August 10th, 2007

By now I’m going to assume that you’ve all seen “The Real World” premiere that aired (for the first time) on Wednesday. Well, do you love it or do you LOVE it? That was a loaded question. Here’s my take on things:

  • KellyAnne is one of those angsty, live-journal-writing 7th grade types. The reason Parisa was all up in your business, dear, is that you fell over drunk your first night there. And you thought Parisa made a bad first impression! Also, classy hot tub charade.
  • Isaac, I’m sorry to say, seems either way overwhelmed or personality-less. We barely saw one full conversation of his, but this very possibly is editing trickery. I think he’s got a lot of potential to be one of the sane roommates.
  • Oh, Parisa! Don’t you guys feel her pain? She is trapped on an island with thoughtless bimbettes. I’ll admit that she did seem to be looking for trouble during a few “conversations,” but she’s clearly at a maturity level that her roommates will reach when they’re old and–actually, probably never.
  • Shauvon surprised me. Her huge knockers and bleach blonde hair make her seem superficial, but she actually seemed rather smart, don’t you think? She’s done right by choosing team Parisa, but she’s still able to be diplomatic with the other roommates. And did I mention those knockers!
  • Trisha seems whiny. I’m on her side with the whole dishwasher argument, but her constant complaining sabotaged any merit that she would have had. The “she didn’t even speak English” thing was poor form as well. I mean, it’s fine to gripe once about how you can’t communicate with the McDonalds lady, but we don’t need to hear over and over again how some crazy foreigner didn’t rush to get you a “crunchy McFlurry.”
  • Ooooh, Dunbar. I’m trying really hard to not mention anything physical because, like, I’m not a superficial person? (Right.) Anyway! He seems sane, like Parisa. It would be difficult to have someone like KellyAnne throwing herself at you while trying to maintain a relationship back home. I truly hope he succeeds with that relationship, but we’ll see how he fares in Sydney.
  • Is Cohutta from the United States? I kid, I kid! KellyAnne was right when she said, “Is that accent real?” Too bad she spiraled from there. I think Cohutta seems genuine–you know, one of those all-around good guy types. I bet he has a farmer’s tan.

I’m all out of breath! Because I love my readership so very much, click “read the rest of this entry” to get an EXCLUSIVE tidbit that explains how Parisa and KellyAnne feel about each other now, after the show is done taping.

New Show: “Rappin’ With The Stars”

Tuesday, August 7th, 2007

SuChin_Pak.jpg

Hot off the press! There’s a new show in the works, and it looks like it’s going to follow the lead of successful reality stunts before it, such “Dancing with the Stars” and that one where celebrities figure skated. It’s called “Rappin’ with the Stars,” and, well, that pretty much explains the premise.

The show pairs celebs with professional hip-hop emcees in a rap competition à la ABC hit Dancing With the Stars. A panel of hip-hop cognescenti will judge the results.

Look Who’s Mocking “The Hills”

Saturday, July 28th, 2007

It’s MadTV! Usually I find this program childish and humorless, but they sure struck a chord with their parody of “The Hills”! The impression of LC is uncanny! Check it out:

Girl Pees on “Next”!

Friday, July 27th, 2007

New “Real World” Info: Isaac Stout

Friday, July 27th, 2007

isaac.jpg

New info was recently posted on MM Agency Blog about Isaac, the newest addition to “The Real World: Sydney” cast. Other sources have already confirmed him as this season’s “party boy,” but here’s the somewhat official word:

He has been an entertainer since birth winning freestyle battles, doing stand up comedy, and MCing events through college of which he felt allowed him to be a better Contiki tour guide during the Sydney Real World.

All this entertainment and Real World stuff to him is simply a launching pad toward his ultimate goal of being the President and then running the world….not sure if he meant running the world as President or that was just a stepping stone toward the world domination gig.

Eh, too much energy too soon? He obviously has the charisma necessary to survive in a “Real World” house; let’s just hope he doesn’t go overboard. Read the full report after the jump.

Steve-O Moves to USA

Thursday, July 26th, 2007

steve_o1.jpg
I mean, he already lives in the country, but he’s moving to the USA network. It’s all part of his new show “Dr. Steve-O,” where he’ll journey the nation to transform wimpy boys into manly men. Seriously, that’s the show’s premise.

DR. STEVE-O will follow the adventures of one-of-a-kind personality Steve-O, a member of a dying breed of live-life-to-the-max daredevils who is disgusted with the alarming number of “wussified” men in America. He travels around the country on a mission to “de-wussify” wimps, nerds and couch potatoes who have been nominated by their buddies, girlfriends, wives, mothers, coworkers or even have nominated themselves.

Sure, it’s all fun and games until Steve-O ends up on your door step and makes you drop and give him 20. The good news is that this show is produced by Bunim/Murray productions, the same guys behind “The Real World,” “Road Rules,” and “The Simple Life.” Maybe that will redeem it? If you want to be on the show, visit the link posted after the jump.
