Where we left off: Kenny is a douche and Tonya got voted home. Johanna is a slut and Dunbar eats people.Keys in hand: Kenny and Abeso many questions:Can someone PLEASE, after years of me asking, explain how Paula, who we all know is mentally unstable and has a debilitating eating disorder, is allowed on these challenges.

i guess its going to be up and down this season, wavering between frighteningly boring and all-the-backstabbing-blowouts-in one or two episode-chunks. if at least they could have prefaced this season with some sort of warning to that effect, i could have watched the marathons on getbackinthenews's dvr and paddled on to the good stuff. it is what it is though. ain't that the truth. let's roll.you

What is the island?Based on the vague, somewhat nude, screaming ads, it's difficult to tell. Maybe we can find out tonight.Catching up with the castKerryAnn, or whoever she is, is breaking out like she never has in her life. Good. You deserve it. You're kind of awful.

We're back with a double serving of The Hills and since it starts in Vegas, I'm going to crunch these bad boys together and add a numerical scoring system that probably won't make much sense, but let's roll the dice and try anyway. Episode 1: Boys Make Girls Cry (i'll give them that one, +2 for title)flying to vegas on doug's jet even though she broke up with him+10 for L.C for maneuvering that

my apologies: i couldn't get it together last night to watch the episode in its entirety so i watched online and here are some thoughts/things i learned.1. when you watch online, it is sponsored by something. the latest episode is personally brought to me by gossip girls and the new 90210. wow. that is a mouthful. i feel like i just downed a strawberry lemonade at ruby tuesdays. you know, the

Again. I am wishing that Exiled featured biatches from Jake's glory days covering Sweet 16. Comic. Gold. "Oh My God"So from what I can gather, Ava is a spoiled brat, possibly in college studying "global studies" (?!). But still living at home and getting her parents to pay her bills? The best part of this show is the intro intervention. Like everyone you know pulling you into a room to tell you

This show. Is. Ridiculous. PLEASE can we talk about this?Based on the 6 minutes I have gotten through so far, I think this is what happens on From G's to Gents. Puff Daddy's former chaueffer bosses around guys from the hood who are desperate to make $100 grand for acting well behaved on national television. These alleged "gangsters" battle to become true gentlemen, avoiding the traps set for them

EXILEDthe premise of this show... is confusing. Initially I thought it was like a crazy reality revisit-- taking former Sweet 16ers and putting them in uncomfortable situations and laughing as we watch them pull a mariah carey.but apparently I was wrong. Exiled appears to be a means of "intervention". for what? addiction to brattiness? entitlement disorder? who remembers Amanda? I don't recall

This might be a little weird. The juxtaposition of the DNC and The Hills was too much for my little brain and I couldn't formulate thought. I'm not even sure I can now. Although last night's episode wasn't quite the sleeper that was the premiere, I was still left wanting more. Maybe my expectations are just too high because I'm anxiously waiting for someone to go to jail or something. I've

Dear MTV,We've been in a relationship for about twelve years now. Back in the days when you actually played music videos, I was hooked every time you aired No Doubt's "Don't Speak". I wanted to be Gwen Stefani in that dark blue dress with polka dots, telling my seventh grade die-hard crush Nick "don't tell me 'cause it hurts". When I couldn't go on Spring Break because my parents weren't about to

And so it begins. Like a seven-man reality Surge, The Real World Cast has finally descended upon Brookhdad. While this newsflash is slightly overdue, we at The MTV Reality would be derelict in our duties if we did not supply a few tidbits of juicy info on the cast for those who were still caught unawares.-The first two New York sightings have placed the cast walking in what appears to be dirty

The big night has arrived. It's really only been a summer without our dysfunctional darlings on The Hills, but that's one summer too long without MTV's golden child. I am eagerly anticipating some hardcore drama. Getbackinthenews and I watched a good chunk of marathon moments over one pinot grigio bottle too many and by the end of our viewing session, we had gotten buzzed, loud and vulgar. In all

In honor of the 4th season of The Hills, which is mere few days away, we would like to share some true gems with you. No matter what drama was going down in LaLa land, or in your own life, you could always count on the pillar of intellectualism that is the cast of this hot mess to give you some winning thoughts on life. You can't write this stuff people, so we won't even try.Going backwards from

Run's House! It's back! HOORAY!!!Run and Justine are publishing a book about parenting. I guess that clears up why the show's gotten so preachy. I'm ok with that. How Cosby of them. But really, I might buy a copy for every parent I see this year. Like, every time I put your kid on long term suspension, you get a copy of this bad boy.

There's been a lot of bitching about the fake/real, real/fake events that constitute my favorite vice, The Hills. Yea, I get that having British TV air The Hills with a disclaimer stating "The following program may contain scenes that have been created purely for entertainment purposes.” may create issues for some fans, or more likely, provide ammo to critics, but come on people, let's be honest.

Hello, Bitches.It's early August. Summer is in the 7th inning stretch and you guys are hot, restless and your 3rd inning July buzz is wearing off. Looking back at the game thus far, yes, of course there have been some highlights. You might have gotten the 5th drunkest you've been in your life. You might have gone on some trips.....to Queens.

Dear loyal MTVReality readers,This will be my last post as editor of this website. It's been a wild run since those salad days of November 2006 when this humble site began. We've followed an LC sex-tape that was too boring to sell. We followed Jason Wahler's exploits like he was the asteroid in Deep Impact. We told you he had to go to museum of tolerance. We were a source for these things. We saw

The MTV Reality invited a guest lecturer for episode nine after the fine work she did in week five. She can probably drink you under the table and has been labeled as "feisty," "Derek Jeter," and "completely out of hand." Ladies and gentleman, I give you Phoebe.This episode had far too much to recount in one recap, so I'm going to discuss this the old school way--storybook fashion--and just hope

Opening Thoughts: This cast and this season are bent on making Real World history. Last week, we found out about the Production Office inside the house and this week the producers invoke some clause where-by you can be kicked off the show if you "don't do your job." Weeks ago we joked about how this season they didn't even have a job in a traditional sense (i.e. helping someone with a business)

Opening Thoughts: Well, this season is officially on the fast-track for Real World immortality. It's taken all the early intensity and managed to keep the momentum going and even upped the confrontation-level each week. Some people felt Will was going home last night. I knew better. The producers simply couldn't have two of the strongest male characters leave the house. What would we be left with
