Im excited for season 30! i hope it winds up going to Atlanta or London ..even NY again would be dope...NY for a 3rd (well, 4th) time would be acceptable since 30 is kind of monumental
Incubus singer Brandon Boyd has been ruthlessly stalking a former "Real World" star -- even threatening to kill her -- so says the former "Real World" star ... but Brandon says B.S.[B]Svetlana Shusterman[/B] from "Real World 17: Key West" got a temporary restraining order against Boyd, claiming Brandon's been stalking her for years ... and recently began threatening her life.Svetlana filed a police report claiming Brandon had followed her car onto a freeway and yelled through the window that he was going to kill her.Svetlana says she recently moved to a friends house to evade him, but he tracked her down. She writes, "Every day, I am terrified." Boyd has been ordered to stay 100 yards away from her pending a court hearing next month.[LEFT][COLOR=#000000] [url=http://www.tmz.com/2014/03/30/real-world-svetlana-shusterman-incubus-singer-brandon-boyd-restraining-order/#ixzz2xWi4bXgX]'Real World' Star Svetlana Shusterman -- Incubus Singer Brandon Boyd Is Threatening to Kill Me | TMZ.com[/url] [/COLOR][/LEFT] I believe Svetlana. Willing to bet they had some form of a relationship and she has proof.

Season 30 IMO Should be in Atlanta, Nashville , or maybe some place international like Vancouver, Rome or Tokyo would be pretty cool. Oh and finally have a Asian guy
[QUOTE=PinkRose;400354][url=http://www.c21media.net/france-enters-the-real-world/]France enters the Real World | News | C21Media[/url][/QUOTE] It is worth coming out of retirement/exile to bring the importance of this article to the attention of serious RW followers. This is the first news in two decades to confirm that BMP relinquished control of the RW brand to VIACOM International. Were that not the case, BMP, which is foreign owned by Banijay Entertainment (France), would have been the company to make this deal. In historical context, this means that Jon Murray's response to a question several years ago about RW surviving on another network if MTV dropped it is likely false. It would have made no sense for BMP to have licensed the international rights to MTV while holding ownership of the concept. This may represent a last effort to wring cash out of the show concept before it fades from US TV screens.
[QUOTE=Challenge 17;400355]Season 30 IMO Should be in Atlanta, Nashville , or maybe some place international like Vancouver, Rome or Tokyo would be pretty cool. Oh and finally have a [B]Asian guy[/B][/QUOTE] Lol I was thinking of doing a challenge fantasy cast with teams divided into different ethnic groups and I noticed that there are hardly any Asian American males on this show. They should definitely get on that.
I have wanted an Asian male on The Real World for years and years and years, but it will never happen. Asian males just aren't respected or acknowledged in the United States, and I am speaking as an Asian male living in the United States. Asian males aren't "cool" enough for MTV/BMP/Whatever to cast them. The popular media always depicts them as nerdy/dorky/goofy/foreigners with thick accents.
I think the only asain male ever was Yes from road rules semester at sea. It sucks, I agree, I think everyone should get representation on the show.

Both were half (or partially) Asian; there's never been a full Asian male on Real World/Road Rules/the Challenge. :(
What season started having webcam confessionals? Was it Portland? I like that feature! It makes it feel more personal when they're talking to the webcam than to the producers in front of the camera.

How much life is left in that franchise, and can you return to the traditional format?[/B] Truthfully, when I first got here I thought, "OK, we're doing season 28. Season 30 sounds like a good place to wrap this baby up." But now that we successfully launched Real World Ex-Plosion, I don't feel that way anymore. I feel like one day you're going to be interviewing someone in this seat that's going to be talking to you about season 50.[/QUOTE]
I've said the same thing. Ex-Plosion was the rebirth of The Real World. If they give each season the proper treatment it deserves I can see the show being around for atleast ten more years.
Did anyone else see any similarities between Brian (ExPlosion) and Trey (St Thomas)?
Re-watching St Thomas, it's such an underrated season. I enjoyed it much more than Portland and San Diego 2. The cast is more well rounded and interesting.
[QUOTE=TeamLandon;406878]Re-watching St Thomas, it's such an underrated season. I enjoyed it much more than Portland and San Diego 2. The cast is more well rounded and interesting.[/QUOTE] It felt like a true Real World season. Last season to actually accomplish that.
Honestly, I really enjoyed the St. Thomas season. My one complaint would be that it was maybe just a LITTLE too heavy on the Robb/Marie and Trey/Laura relationship drama, but I agree with what both of y'all said above me.
I liked St Thomas aside from the annoying Brandon's
20 years from now we need a Real World "The Next Generation" starring: Lil Derrick "Awesome" Kosinski Robin's child Brady Hall-Fiorenza Emerson Herter* Judd and Pam's kids One of the six Campos-Duffy children Paula's fetus I'd watch that *Side-note: If you aren't following Blair's Dad website...you should be.

I'm not sure Sean Duffy will let his kids partake but it depends on how his political career continues.

We'd need Sean Duffy's kids...lest this show be a sausage fest. Actually we could add Coral's daughter in there too.

There's tons of kids that could be chosen - Beth's kids, Julie's, Melissa's daughters, Alton's kid, Parisa's, Joey Kovar's (RIP), Brianna's, Joey's kid, Callie's, and I'm sure MANY more. Lol.
Since BMP is doing a Bad Girls Club All Stars season when are they gonna do a Real World All Stars season? [ATTACH]4595[/ATTACH] [ATTACH]4596[/ATTACH] 8 or more real world alumni living in like New York City or Manhattan together but instead of just partying and getting drunk every night they are there for a cause. They have 2 months to create a charity and put together a huge fundraiser to raise money. First, they do like a mini event for it just introducing the charity and finding donators. Then the big task will be to throw a HUGE fundraiser raising money for their charity. BMP should give them a goal to set just to make things even more interesting. I also think along the way they should have a life coach to sort some issues out among these cast members personally and as a group because this is not gonna be easy I think. I don't think fans should pick the cast but former cast members who are interested should audition and BMP select the best who will really contribute to the show.

That's what challenges are for. The concept of a "cause" doesn't seem terribly new either. I'm reminded of RW's Boston, Philly, and Denver immediately. Besides, I'm not that interested in the prospect of watching Nia clobber a homeless person with a toaster.

And The Challenge and an all star season is 2 different things.

I personally wouldnt watch that, its pointless. [QUOTE=UrbanTactics;408275]I think it would be nice to see some people we haven't seen in a while on an All-Stars type of season.
