Real World Hollywood: Greg Halstead

No matter anyone's opinion of Greg, one thing for sure is that he has arguably brought more entertainment to the real world in recent history. The last episode was a great one and I think the real world did a great job of casting a diverse group of people this season, can't wait to see how Nick adds to the show. CHECK MY SWAGG!!!

[QUOTE][B][I][U]arguably [/U][/I][/B]brought more entertainment to the real world in recent history[/QUOTE] I don't find him the least bit entertaining. He is like a sponge on camera. He reflects nothing; he simply absorbs... He must have been death on the improv stage.

I enjoyed watching him the most out of all the cast members (no ****) but everyone adds their little drama to it. The whole cast is like a train wreck.

Just saw the dailies and it shows the scene where Greg gets sent home.

[QUOTE=Swagg;14274]it's hard for me to believe you don't find some of his antics to be the least bit amusing? lol CHECK MY SWAGG[/QUOTE] I didn't find him amusing because I'm too close to so many cast members who look at their time RW time as a life-changing experience. My impression, and that of many former cast members and company executives, is that we were all present (in our role as audience, employers, etc) for whatever purpose suited Greg at the time. I took offense that Greg apparently decided that it was The Greg Show and not The Real World: Hollywood. I'll step down from my soapbox now, but you did ask...

Was Greg right when he said the ratings would drop without him??... sadly I think so because the rest of the season looked boring and almost stupid...people getting drunk SHOCKER, sarah fighting wit another black person SHOCKER, Will trying to get some from his roomie while he has a girl SHOCKER....mtv needs to do something different because every season since las vegas has basically been wack..maybe they need to throw a midget in the house..or maybe a senior citizen...that'll be some entertainment for ya *** lol..or maybe even a asian,they dont have those on the Real world anymore..the last episode was a waste..the highlight for me was seeing joey go home and get exposed( how fake is that,u diss ur homeboy from home who came to see you) and seeing my baby Bri..she got skills,but like Will said take a week of them ciggarettes..u dont see beyonce wit newports in her hand lol. -ju

[QUOTE=jutube;15531]the highlight for me was seeing joey go home and get exposed( how fake is that,u diss ur homeboy from home who came to see you) [/QUOTE] Are you serious, you think he should have hung out with the guy who wanted to do nothing but get ***ked up on the drugs that he brought along with him even though he knew that his friend had just gotten out of rehab...not to mention the fact that IF he would have hung out with said friend it would jepordize his place in the house since there will be illegal activities involved. I think Joey did the right thing...that friend wasn't mature enough to party without narcotics like the other two that came down that Joey did hang out with because they understood his situation and didn't berate him for it like the other guy did.

No I dont think he shouldve hung out wit him,but i dont think he should have had him come all the way to hollywood just to turn around...how ***king weak are you if you cant even go out because you cant fight temptation..what is he gonna do party at chuck e cheese all the time now.

Hopefully though you never have to deal with addiction because it is not a fun game to play. He specifically told his friend on the phone that he was sober and staying that way, if the stupid friend was dumb enough to think that once he got there with his "goodie bag" that it wouldn't **** Joey off, then he should have stayed his *** home and got dope ***ked there like he probably does everyday.

[quote=jutube;15537]how ***king weak are you if you cant even go out because you cant fight temptation..[/quote] Ju...the reason you dont get it is because youre not in that situation. I am a Gambling addict, and recently I made a very good effort to try and stay away. Well I was shopping in another town with a family member, and on the way back I saw nothing but casino advertisement billboards for the casino in our town. My anxiety shot up and I had to close my eyes. Next thing I know we make a detour off the interstate for him to stop by his friends house...and we end up driving right by the casino's sign (the casino is five miles away from the highway). That one temptation alone made me go there that night and I lost almost $200 because of it. Like I said, you just dont know unless youre in that situation.

[QUOTE=Swagg;14305] ... although his actions may not be entertaining to you they do incite a reaction from you, unlike some duller past cast mates ... [/QUOTE] Such perspective may be true for some, but not for me. I am in the entertainment business and have business relationships with many in the MTV family. There is no question that we view it as a "family" and don't take kindly to what Greg brought to the table. My reaction has nothing to do with "fan" response -- I'm even disqualified as a Nielsen ratings person. As someone who has cast for major network shows with substantially larger audiences than Real World, my professional assessment is that Greg is a fraud and a casting disaster. Other can spin their views however they want, but my views from from inside the business and don't come sugar coated and have nothing to do with any other cast member.

Honestly, if I were you, I'd spend a little more time in study and reflection and much less time with your mouth open, otherwise the world's reaction to you is probably going to be decidedly painful in many situations. That is not a person attack, it is the expression of a Jesuit belief.

[quote=jutube;15531]the last episode was a waste..the highlight for me was seeing joey go home and get exposed-ju[/quote] That was 'the highlight' to you? I thought that his letter and his departure was one of the most heart-wrenching REAL things I've seen on this show in a LOOOONG time. I don't think anyone should make fun of it or make light of it.

why are we talking about this in greg's forum?? and why are we entertaining such mindless jibber jabber w/ responses??? i've got questions.....who's got answers?

[QUOTE=jkauf23;15562]why are we talking about this in greg's forum?? [/QUOTE] Because he is no longer worth talking about or even worth of having his own fourm. [QUOTE=jkauf23;15562]and why are we entertaining such mindless jibber jabber w/ responses??? i've got questions.....who's got answers?[/QUOTE] What kind of questions??

[quote=stacee_danielle;15588]Because he is no longer worth talking about or even worth of having his own fourm.[/quote] haha Ah how true that is. Greg wasn't someone I out right hated at first, I gave him a chance but it all turned sour after a while. On the other hand, I liked Joey and sure it was a bit sad to see that Mike had left that stuff outside but Joey was dead on in his choice to avoid him that would have only hurt him.

I agree Joey has been through a lot, and all on television as well. His letter was the most real and painful thing to watch. Some people cannot understand addiction or pain. When someone goes through these things personally they get a better understanding of it. I am just hoping the six other room mates that were there at the time learn from what they saw Joey go through.

The lease any of the former roomies can do is learn and be there for someone else who may deal with it in their future.

i guess the bra is for his saggy tits... [URL="http://vevmo.com/vbimghost.php?do=displayimg&imgid=65"][IMG]http://vevmo.com/imagehosting/34848571f00bc590.jpg[/IMG][/URL]

If it weren't for Greg and Brianna RW Hollywood would have been a bust. GREG FTW.

No way, i love this season. Joey has brought a lot to it as well. I do agree, though, that Sarah and Kim are boring for the real world and i'm not sure how they were picked.
