Real World: Hollywood Episode 8

So, sometimes people do real time blogs. 

I’ve seen it before.

And because this season of the Real World is maybe the most fantastic television around right now (aside from the NBA Finals [the NHL Finals seem like fun but I just can't do it. Not yet.] anyway) I’ve decided to pump myself up for tomorrow night’s Celtics vs. Lakers game 1, not by re-watching the McHale/Rambis scrum repeatedly, or listening to “In The Air Tonight” by Phil Collins or “Roc Boys” by Jay Z (I did all that LAST NIGHT and will do it some more tomorrow) no no no. 

I have decided to do a real time Real World blog of this episode.

wish me luck.

10:02 – Joey seems happy. How long until someone is drinking in front of him, or offering him a drink? I’ll say 10:37. 

10:03 – Oh cool. Dave has plans. Dave has to get his shit on. Dave was the guy at the meeting who said “Well, I mean, I want Joey to do well, but like…I still need to get my drink on! SHIIIIITTTT!” and then he slept with 3 skanky girls at once.

10:05 – Worst song ever. 

10:06 – Why does anyone talk to Greg? He just said they were a “tight-knit family”. I’ve never been in a tight knit family where someone told me my dead father hates me for being gay. Also, I’ve never been in a tight knit family where I called my family members peasants, referred to myself as “the chosen one” or shared one of my “associates” with my brother.

10:08 – The foreshadowing looks solid. I’m going to assume Greg hooks up with that girl Will likes. ITS ONLY FAIR! THAT’S WHAT A TIGHT KNIT FAMILY IS ABOUT!!!!!!

10:11 – Agree, Sarah is maybe the only other person in the house who isn’t a complete tool. And even she has moments of immature whiney-ness.

10:13 – Oh shit, nobody is being sensitive to what he went through? Really? You don’t say…

10:15 – Never heard of “Real World: Key West” I definitely missed that one. But what does it say about how many Real World cast members there have been that they are now bumping into each other while filming? 

10:18 – Brianna. Super nice. There we go. That’s the attitude. “Joey, I’m glad you didn’t kill all of the girls when you went apeshit crazy, yeah…and I mean, I know I’m supposedly a recovering Meth addict…but…Why should I have to change ANYTHING about myself for someone else. That won’t be fun.”

10:21 – Did that guy just say “and I understand that you are looking to be a model or uhh…”? He totally did. Would the “or uhh…” be code for “whore”? 

10:24 – He doesn’t want to be put in those situations. Meaning he shouldn’t be on the Real World. Poor Joey.

10:30 – Oh man. Here comes some more sick Philly footage…I hope.

10:33 – Gotta say, improv group…maybe the worst job ever. 

10:34 – That new M. night Shamalamadingdong movie “The Happening”, the twist is that plants are killing everyone. That’s about it. Worst person on Earth. That guy still owes me $10 for “The Village” and $5,000 for making me watch advertisements for this piece of shit and “Lady In The Water”. 

10:39 – Oh man, I wish I was at a WTF performance. THEY DIDN’T WIN? HOW DID THAT HAPPEN?!?!

10:45 – Aww. Charna is a sweetheart. They should probably ALWAYS have a logical middle aged mentor around to tell the asshole kids what’s what.

10:48 – I like Ryan. Ryan is Sarah’s boyfriend. He’s been on once and Greg treated him like shit, of course. Sarah is a little high strung. But Ryan seems like the most logical person to be on the show this season. Oh…other than that guy JoJo with the diamond pistol belt buckle. 

10:50 – I am 0.000000000000001% interested in Tila Tequila’s piece of shit show. She isn’t even attractive. 

10:51 – I JUST HAD A GREAT IDEA FOR A NEW MTV DATING SHOW!!!! It would be called “Who wants to date a Pornstar!”. I’m sure they could find some pornstar who wanted to go mainstream. That would be the only way I could actually buy that ANY of the contestants might want to hook up with the person they are “competing” for. What a horrible idea. And MTV will steal it. mark my words.

10:53 – SHIT YEAH! That shot of Dave laughing was hysterical. 

10:55 – That guy who just told Greg “you reap what you sow” was great. Oh man, I hope he leaves. I wonder why nobody spoke up. Oh, its because he was a giant asshole who everyone hated who acted like he was better than everyone. 

10:58 – I really hope they have that guy JoJo move in to replace Greg. That could be priceless television.

11:00 – This season has really had EVERYTHING. I just don’t know how any other unscripted (or mostly unscripted) TV show could have this much awesome drama. Fantastic.

Well, I hope you enjoyed it with me. 

Tomorrow, something more traditional.
