Speaking of Get Real Denver, Austin had a site like that too at the time (Real World Austin.com) where they were actively spying and posting spoilers during filming of the season. I havn't seen a site like that the last couple of seasons......

We definitely need to get our New Yorkers to become "top secret" reporters for us and we'll carry the torch this season.

Awesome! I can't wait for the big "reveal" (by reveal I mean the vevmo one, not the Mtv one, LOL)

Well, wasn't Melissa from New Orleans a huge fan (like she'd spend her weekends watching the RW marathons they used to have and knew about every former castmember)? I guess they changed their policies then.

And as much as I love NYC, I can't believe they're going there AGAIN. Jon Murray is really trying to get RW back to its roots, no matter how futile that is. We won't have people like Julie, Heather, Norm...or Coral, "The Miz" and Lori on RW ever again.

Well Parisa's still young and probably has a lot of disposable time on her hands compared to the older castmembers. As much as I'd love to hear from NY Julie, I doubt she's going to take time away from her husband and kids to worry about random fans. Unlike Beth S., who, though she's one of the older castmembers she oddly has a lot of time on her hands to respond to fans (even with this marriage coming up).

See IAmOnMTV.com for what I mean.

I said generally. So out of every 25 cast, 1 might be a fan.

Most cast members I talk to never even saw the show before they were on it.

See I dont' buy that. People say that....but unless you've been living under a rock for the last 20 years, I'm sure you've at least seen ONE episode of the real world.....

There is a difference between watching the Real World on occasion because it is a show that is appropriate and hip for your age group (like say The Hills, for Tweens) and being a fan.

Im gonna get flamed for this but the same thing with shows like Power RRangers and Baywatch. Most of those cast members never even saw the show before being on it. but then again people sin and lie nowadays.

OK, I took your suggestion and went to the site. Beth is listed at # 4 on page 15 of 16 of the "most active" listing, page one being the most active. It would seem to me that nearly the entire universe of RW people has been more active than Beth. Frankly, if she has time on her hands, there are a number of projects that need her attention.

Beth actually has not been online at iamonmtv.com since the awards show. Her contract with MTV for iamonmtv.com covered only Gauntlet 3 and the Real World Awards Bash. She may have taken her obligations differently than others by planning to be online three times per day on average, early morning, mid-day and evening.

Since the awards show, she has returned to interacting with people via her myspace account where she can be decidedly more candid and has content control.
