Real World XXII - 1.785m Real World XXII Aftershow - 1.264m Episode 5 - Didn't deliver.
That sucks. I really expected this episode to get good ratings, because it was so good.
Brooklyn brought the ratings but could not keep them. I don't dislike Brooklyn, it had a good cast, but the only reason it got good ratitings for episode one is because it got very good promotion. Cancun didn't.

Cancun is amazing. I hope that MTV realizes their mistakes with promotion. It is so unfair that Hollywood, Sydney, and Brooklyn get loads of promo time yet Cancun got hardly any.
Again bad ratings, this is sad.
I might sound silly saying this, but MTV needs to get their priorities right: quit beating those damn P. Diddy shows and fake "Hills" telenovelas into the ground and put a little more focus on [I]The Real World[/I]. It clearly seems that a little more promotion goes a long way. It's not like [I]Cancun[/I] is something that's actually worth hiding...like [I]Inferno 3[/I] was. YIKES, that was a mess!

The Real World is the godfather of all reality TV shows(and the first on MTV) so I think MTV needs to focus more on Real World. MTV needs to focus less on people the Diddy and Paris Hilton, because they make loads of money elsewhere.

I agree if only half the promotion The Hills and other shows received went into this, imagine the ratings?

Hardly watched Hollywood, Sydney, and Brooklyn but cannot miss any episode of Cancun.
I loved Sydney. Hollywood was overrated IMO. Brooklyn was awesome. Cancun definitely does seem to the best of the recent years.
The best of the recent years?? Oh boy. But hey, everyone has their opinion.... The ratings sure are not translating.
Once again, Real World didn't make the Top 10.
Blanky, I don't expect it to do any better at this point.
This is a really good season* I loovvveee Emilee, Aiyiiia, & CJ* Jasmine and Joey are annoying* How can this season not have good ratings? It's soooo gooooood***
Easily, the ratings are terrible because of the lack of promotion, and because they are terrible at editing.
If I were a Cancun cast member I would be pissed at MTV/BMP.

Thats good that they're promoting it a bit there.
Here's the thing that doesn't really upset me about the ratings--a lot of people DVR the show, a lot of people watch it online, and a lot of people catch it on reruns because MTV reruns it a lot. In fact, I think it's safe to say that the show is just as popular as it was before but the fact of the matter is that it's just more difficult to gauge now because catching it at 10pm is not the only way to see the newest episode.

mtv should start rerunning more episodes rather than 1
Alexa who? Like that'll help.

Better star cracking OPD! I don't think Joey being on Alexa's show will help much.
