Are you sure it's not the vacation destination for this season? A whole season in Hassle Island is sorta hard to imagine.

While I do appreciate your confidence, in the end we need to appraise a given location based on facts in evidence. You can "assure" all that you like, but that doesn't offer anything tangible that would allow me to conclude with high probability that VI is the location.
That said, if you do stumble upon any material indications (e.g. cast and crew photos, crew related job advertisements, film permits, construction permits, leases, etc.) that prove they are indeed filming The Real World on Hassel Island, we'd be very interested in that information.

You are aware that the correct spelling is Hassel Island, correct? This is the kind of reason that makes me hesitant to confirm. I would expect locals to know correct spelling of anything in their area.
Okay, believe me, don't believe me but i have confirmation from several places that have already set up shooting dates. So we'll just have to see if I'm blowing smoke out of my butt or not. But I'll know in advance where they'll be and posting on it when they're here.

Sounds good. Keep us updated.
I have already found the house if the picture in your blog is the correct one. When were the lights set up on that property?

[QUOTE=FishHooks;298075]Two boring seaside communities back to back... :puke:[/QUOTE]
San Diego is FAR from being a boring seaside community. The season 26 cast of The Real World just failed to live up to the city's potential. With the exception of maybe two or three people from the cast, I could have gone into a lecture hall at SDSU, closed my eyes and point to 7 random individuals and there's a really good chance those people would have had made a better season.
Rumor through the coconut telegraph is the St. Thomas Real World has kicked off tonight shooting at The Fat Turtle in Yacht Haven Grande. fat Turtle is the islands Friday night spot: [url=http://www.fat-turtle.com/]Fat Turtle St. Thomas U.S.V.I [/url].

Hope you get some Pics!!!
I don't see why they'd go to the Virgin Islands? The population is only 100,000, not that many people go there for vacation, and there is a lot of crime there. But, anything is possible.

LOL. I foresee lots of Bermuda shorts and golf outings :sneaky: I really do not see who their big sponsor would be as I think it would be a hard location to sell to Subway on. Not exactly appealing to the target demographic unless they are going to focus on the 49+ market.

I agree, Dallas, Orlando, St. Louis, Maui, Portland or San Juan would have all been places I would expected but I guess random means less spoilers and easier filming through out the months.
[QUOTE=FishHooks;298037]MTV has a ton of shows in production right now so I think some people are jumping to the conclusion that a MTV camera crew=Real World.

So because the spelling is wrong makes him incorrect? Thats not right.
[QUOTE=ILoveRW;298077]Isn't College Hill's season in the US Virgin Islands considered the best? I only saw South Beach.[/QUOTE]
It is! The best, I have a couple of friends who worked on it from that season through Interns.

Blasphemy. LOL. College was much more better than the TRW at the time before it jumped the shark with Interns, Atlanta and South Beach. Not to mention the started the idea of it around the early 90s, like RW but didn't get "greenlighted" until 2003. I could be wrong though as I read that on the BET forums from the bet.com site.
You're talking about the fight between Vanessa and kRYSTAL which was simply classic. Also, there's alot to do there besides drinking and hooking up like later RW's...

Yes College Hill was the best from Season 3-5 , I have never been to VI but the way people talk about they say after a week it gets boring much like Orlando or Las Vegas.

Sort of except on Two A Days they had been winning for like 5 years.

Until I see am official Molds13 proclamation , I am going to keep my eyes and mind open about the RW 27 location. MTV is getting tricky IMO and it wouldn't surprise me if they put out false spoilers to figure out where the leaks are.

True but I doubt they would do that on purpose especially after they tried with RWDenver.

What? That's a lie. Whoever says or thinks that obviously doesn't get out very much. To each their own I guess.
[QUOTE=Nostalgic;298129]True but I doubt they would do that on purpose especially after they tried with RWDenver. [/QUOTE]
Wasn't aware they had done that. Either way, my working theory is the "Real World Orlando" and "Real World ST Thomas" is the same show, but it will really be "Wake Brothers". It makes much more logical sense since it is about two FL brothers and their friends who are pro wake boarders who compete at everything, even getting girls, and one of the cast members tweeted that they are supposed to start filming this coming week. An island home with a dock sounds a lot more likely scenario for that show. I could be wrong, but absent any evidence other than rumors, I'm going Mr. Spock logical on this one for now.

If the season is in Orlando, the cast could've definitely blended in the past week or so because of the all star game. All the cast needs is some 7 footer that looks like a basketball player.

LOL. The Orlando tweets about RW filming there started popping at the same time as the Virgin Island ones. In both places people are reporting that the RW is now filming, I guess the dead give away would be if a Malibu boat pops up in a picture of Hassel Island since they sponsor Wake Brothers. Of course, if they film overseas in a non-English speaking country it might be a little harder to get a fix on RW since I don't think twitter or FB translate and the phraseology might be hard to pin down for we Non-Molds mere mortals.
Its been reported that it was just a rumor that production started in VI , They are now reporting a Next Week or Mid March filming time.
Real World Orlando still sounds more plausable than Real World Virgin Islands.
Hey Big Kahuna here from the St. Thomas Blog, last week I told you all that MTV's Real World would be shooting in St. Thomas. I had confirmed that with many bars but most of you didn't believe me so here's your proof: [url=http://www.stthomasblog.com/?p=9884]MTV Real World St. Thomas US Virgin Islands Gets Set For Shooting[/url]. We always out-scoop the local paper here. Follow the blog for details...

Actually we have several Subways in STT. We also have McDonald's, Wendy's, KMART, Home Depot on and on.
