The Real World: Austin

Recommended Posts

Well, figured I'd start a thread. Tonight was the first night, and I have to say, already it looks pretty interesting, and a lot more interesting then the likes of Philly or Paris.

 

I sort of like. Plus, Melinda and Jo, DAMN. Although it looks like already..there's way to much happening. I mean 'The Love Story' already? wow.

what's your take on the Nehemiah/Jo situation that lead to what's his name getting dicked in the eye? The whole ordeal was total bullshit...Jo reminds me of so many chicks and guys I've known over the years, can't hold their liquor and turn into complete jackasses...Nehemiah was right to get pissed, but should have let the others know what was going on before just storming off...the other guys meant well, but good intentions don't always turn out for the best...plus, my feeling is that the people of Austin were taking exception to having Real World filmed there and wanted to fuck with the cast members, which ended up getting ugly...I kinda feel Nehemiah got the raw end of te deal, however and Jo shoulda shouldered some of the blame rather than just blow the whole thing off...

"run of the mill first episode"??? I heard some guy got his orbital bone broken (or something comparable ... I heard it from some cat at work, and he's not the best story teller)

my feeling is that the people of Austin were taking exception to having Real World filmed there and wanted to fuck with the cast members,

That's every season though. So by now, upcoming cast members should expect it.

 

But I mean, FUCK, no one deserves to get hit like Danny did for no reason at all really. That was a hell of a cheap shot. You konw that feeling you get when you see a bad accident, or like a really bad skateboard bail or something? That's the feeling I got when I saw Danny's face after he got hit, and ever moreso when I saw the X-ray, that made me cringe.

 

But there was still no reason for Danny to go home and get pissed at Nehemiah. And try to say he was defending him and got hit, WTF? The dude who socked him, was gonna hit him regardless evidently, because people just wanted to fight them. So Nehemiah really did get the raw end of the deal, but at least he had sense enough, in the end (when they got back home) to just set her straight and walk away.

I think that's what he meant by 'the last 10 minutes were smoking'. Because that didn't happen until the end of the episode. But most of the rest was just cast introduction, everyone meets/gets drunk/get in the hot-tub, etc, before we find out "who likes who". So in ways, it was run of the mill, but that didnt' stop it from being pretty damn entertaining.

yeah that's what I meant...it was boring as shit the first 50 minutes, but the fight at the end turned it around rather quickly...Johanna being fine as fuck held my interest the first 50 minutes...

Ahhh ... I see. Sorry to bust your balls over nothing, Lushus. Well, you probably had it coming for SOMETHING and I just busted 'em for the wrong reason. Still my apology stands.

 

It seems like every year you hear a story about how the locals hate the show being there, and it's getting progressively worse. Chicago just tagged their house and yelled shit; Philly threw chairs; now Austin is breaking faces. What's next?

don't forget San Diego: those guys giving Robin and the other chick shit when the blonde got busted for having a fake ID...Randy and Brad, dressed as the Mario Brothers, mind you, getting into it with Real World hecklers...

 

it was only a matter of time before someone realized it'd be cool to beat up Real Worlders on camera...

That Mel chick is fucking smoking, damn. I'd be in heaven living with her. More than any RW intially though, ya gotta feel sorry for her boyfriend (who I would clearly say is probably not with her anymore) as she was fucking horny for Danny immediately. Imagine him having to see this shit last night on TV. His hot ass woman at the time flirting like crazy with the guys and even showing off her coochie on that one shot. Chicks like her are definately a great catch short term but any guy who would actually be with her long term would be a fool as she's almost too good looking that she probably could never ever be committed fully.

 

Anyway the show last night was interesting for sure. Neh is going to clearly be the only voice of reason and sense, not to mention maturity, in that house. He got fucked over badly there, as he didnt do anything wrong with the chick, just helping her, and then a drunken Danny gets on his ass for him not being around while he was "protecting him" even though none of the cast even knew the story why he left. If anything Danny should be pissed at Johanna for doing what she did, which led to him getting out of there.

 

How the hell does Wes and Johanna hook up? Guys like Wes - I can't understand how they can get ANY pussy EVER when you act like a fucking 12 year old fratboy that looks like a tool in the first place, much yet have really nothing much to offer to the cast other than being just that. He's one of the more dumbass beefcakes I've ever seen on TRW.

 

MTV should have a blog site where all cast members are required to post week by week on their thoughts of each show. For example, someone like Johanna adding their thoughts on how she came across on this episode would have surely been interesting.

Can't we get a show that isn't full of drunken party animals with a frat-boy mentality?

They need to get a couple of straight edge cast members on some show and see how that turns out. `

Didn't you make the exact same post in the other thread? :huh: Repeating yourself is fine, but I swear it's the same post.

 

But anyways, to answer your question, no. Most of TRW audiencefinds the whole, drunken/fighting group of teens/adults entertaining. If it's not broke, don't fix it. While it may be the same thing every year, people watch it every year and find it entertaining, so I doubt we'll really be seeing anything different. Plus, a house full of sober people, while I guess you could say its a sort of 'stereotype...' or something, but it wouldn't be as entertaining.

 

And the one's who don't drink and act crazy on the show, like Julie, Jon, Sarah...people just don't really like, and don't "get into their characters" I guess you could say. Most just see them as prudes.

See that's the problem with society. I mean I drink and stuff but I don't get piss drunk every weekend.

And for some reason(especially in college) if you don't do that you're viewed as uncool and outcast. It's screwed up and MTV does nothing but further perpetuate that.

This season started out almost exactly like San Diego did. And I am shocked, a girl on RW actually "doesn't like to dance" wow, will she make it past the three week mark when we seemingly have another cast that do nothing but go to dance clubs!?!

Well, it definitely wouldn't be the first season, so I'm sure she'll manage. There was Mel last season (well she didn't party with them), Frankie, Rachel..the blond one, Julie, etc. and they all lasted. Well...Frankie, sort of. So Im' sure she can.

That was one hell of a cheap shot punch, no doubt. I liked Wes's line about he's gotten into tons of fights like that over stupid shit. My guess is he was at the business end of most of them.

 

Johanna while hot, should get all of that shit for the fight happening. Lying about the story (although extremly intoxicated) to cover your ass. Charming.

Wes reminds me of Abe from Road Rules.

 

I noticed that too. I sware to God they keep picking people who somehow resemble some older cast member from the Real World or Road Rules.

I'm curious as to why Wes and Nehemiah get into it...I don't mean to come across as biased on this, but I kinda sorta think Nehemiah would win in that battle...

 

oh and it's not a RW season without a lesbian scene between two chicks who really aren't lesbians becuase, you know that's TEH HAWT~!

I'm surprised that they found out what kind of job they were going to do for this Season In only The Second Ep. In past Seasons, It seems like they let The Cast get settled In a little bit before they tell them what they were going to be doing. Also, I'm glad they addressed the obvious question of going back to The Videotape and handing It over to The Cops to nab Danny's Assailant. I hope this Is followed up on future shows.

I'm disappointed we didn't see the closure between Nehemiah, Johanna and Danny over the whole deal...Johanna was clearly in the wrong here but I guess it's all okay? Oh, and I've had broken bones and such and i've never been as pathetic and depressed as Danny was last night...I mean he even commented he was going to use the sympathy people were giving him to his advantage...that's just lame, dude...
