What is everyone actually looking for in the perfect season? I'm resrea curious I know there was some minor discussion earlier on in the thread but what does a successful cast look like to you all.. I really respect y'alls thoughts because y'all have been there alot of you since the beginning.
Real stories with real people. Not everyone has to have a deep personal story but I don’t want cut-outs of what we see from AYTO/Bachelor/etc. People that come from all walks of life. The casting with the males needs work the most IMO. They always cast guys that get along.... boring.

Since its online I would say it allows them to be more raw and find people with real stories without thinking about being censor. I also think since it's on facebook they should realized that the majority of those viewers are older people that wouldnt get impressed by just the hookups or hot people. Finding a diverse cast with actual interesting current stories should be a priority people like Pedro, Danny from new orleans 1, Frankie Jo, Tami, Paula, Joey K, Jemmye, Madison and whoever were at the time their show aired.
In my opinion people like Jenna bgc, Jay and Francesca should be cut we already saw them on the same type of show format and none of them deliver in it. They are just thirsty individuals that wants camera time to extend their 15 seconds that expired years ago.
I wouldnt mind Kareem because ayto was completely different enviroment than Real World and we never got to know about his personal life.

theres a reason why some RW people are still remembered to this day. We need people like Danny (NOLA which wow I just saw he’s HIV+), Ryan (Brooklyn), Pedro, Coral, Ruthie, and Jemmye. People who are REAL with interesting stories to tell. Bringing awareness to folks who are not always represented in the media. Not 8 people From Model Mayhem. We even saw with Kim on Bad Blood that IG “Stars” aren’t gonna deliver on their YouTube personas
Y'all gave some really great examples for what you would be looking for and honestly alot of those reasons are exactly why I went to do the casting because I felt like I had a story to tell but it's difficult in situations like the casting because there's so many people and everyone is shouting there stories to the world. I will say I kind of knew what I was getting myself into going to the casting yesterday because of the research I did and listening to you alls prior experiences but it did feel like alot of social media people were there.. but idk I feel like I'm still going to watch because there was alot of interesting people there..
I need interesting, diverse people who have stories to tell but also, the stories shouldn't be THEIR main focus. Or rather, it shouldn't be the only reason they get on the show. I don't want people coming up on the show and saying (for example, take Jemmye) "Oh, I've been in an abusive relationhip!" and that's all she talks about because that's a struggle she's had to overcome and that's part of what got her on the show. No, we saw her be herself, live her life, come into situations where she had to confront he rpast, that was part of herself, and then it came out on the show and she was open and honest about it. I need people who have these unique pasts and situations to just come on the show and live their life and by living their authentic lives, then we get to learn about them and their stories. This type of reality show is probably dead since we've been so saturated with reality TV but it's what I originally loved about the series. Does any of this make sense?
The format of real stories and raw characters have expired. People wanna see a combination of what’s already out there because that’s what they’re used to seeing. I think they just need to find a strong balance between including actual stories and showing some character development (if there’s any) and including hilarious, intense moments as well. The editing will be the downfall if anything.

The most exciting part is seeing if anyone who was at a casting makes it onto the show...but literally 1 or none make it. So its a gamble. Alot of the cast is found online or through casting/home tapes.

Lol I finally got one of those callback emails. So the consensus is don’t even bother going to the audition. Right?
One or two people normally make the cast who actually went to the casting calls and that sounds like it will be the girl the other posters said the casting directors were hunting down at the other casting call.
I’m sure there was a commercial for this, ChallengeTea on Instagram posted it in their story. It wasn’t anything special just showed the 3 variations and the original Real World slogan

So I’ve been to big brother castings before should I expect the same thing? Messy group interviews, waiting forever to be seen, etc..?lol sorry I keep commenting. I’m just curious how this years casting is gonna be any different
The B.B. casting calls I’ve been to have been pretty organized and a lot of fun. Never had to wait too long either but I’ve done them in large cities. The RW ones this year have been and will continue to be much worse and with much trashier, try-hard, awful people.
I think the ones that were casted kind of by happenstance (aka didn't REALLY go out to get casted because they want to become a reality tv "star") always tend to be better additions because they're more real and not just thirsty for fame.
For example, Cohutta was persuaded by friends day of cause he wanted to get out of his small town and see the world, Averey was working at Hooters where they were doing the casting and someone asked her if she wanted to do it then and there, etc.
Can we leave the thirsty Model Mayhem "models" and wannabe DJs at home though? They should realize by now that it's not working.
I would question the casting directors intelligence along with everyone else over at BMP and MTV if they think I’m about to login Facebook just to watch models act a fool when I can easily pull it up on TV.

Lmaoooooo facts tho.
Not all model casting is bad IMO but they're on ******* Facebook with no worries about ratings. They can afford to think outside of the box.
The only way I see this really taking off is if they get a true gem in one cast member. A New York, a Chad Johnson, a Nia, a Megan Hauserman, etc. Wishful thinking.
Trying out for real world is embarrassing for any past reality star in my opinion. They already did a previous show and Real World/BGC are the type of show that doesnt pay much

I would be fine with AYTO/Bachelor looking people if they had a story, but at the same time, I don’t want to watch ugly people on a Facebook Watch.

I want to see a gay and a lesbian on this show.

Deadass I’d be so good for this show based on the story I could use

I wonder if anyone called out those washed up reality tv "stars" just to be noticed.
I just saw a video on ig of the scattered line and lawdd mess and the person recording said “none of yall making it on anyway” lmaooooo
A MESS

I agree but it needs to be like the very first season where there was only one model in the cast.
Trying out for real world is embarrassing for any past reality star in my opinion. They already did a previous show and Real World/BGC are the type of show that doesnt pay much
Redd from BGC is trying out
