Behind the Screen: The Real World: Generic Thread

The reality TV landscape has never been more crowded or more diverse. From dating shows to competition series to docusoaps, networks and streamers are betting big on unscripted content.

What sets the great shows apart is their ability to create genuine moments — the kind of unscripted drama that no writer's room could manufacture. That's what keeps fans coming back.

He thought he was like Brad Pitt or something but really he was just so obnoxious and he and Melinda were one spray tan away from looking like oompa loompas. I haven't liked him since. And Melinda was always kinda meh to me. Actually, besides Johanna, I couldn't stand the entire Austin cast for a period. I have grown to like Wes though after the Duel. Nehemiah and Danny are the worst offenders of the bunch, can't stand them. Melinda and Rachel are just kind of annoying to me from what I've seen. There's really nothing to say about Lacey. Johanna isn't even a favorite of mine, I just like her. Plus, it doesn't hurt that she's a hottie. So overall, not of a fan of the cast or the season.
Never liked Melinda, Rachel or Nedermeyer. Annoying, Annoying, Annoying. Lacey was alright at times but I thought she ran her mouth too much. I've always loved Johanna, couldn't stand her on the Island, but I couldn't stand anybody on the Island, so its whatev. She is beautiful though. Lovveeeee Wes. I love his cocky attitude. But overall, Austin is one the worst seasons to date, along with Paris, Sydney, and Denver, IMO. I heard London was pretty bad but I never seen it.

Agreed about Austin and Denver being the two worst. And probably Sydney, too yeah. LOL at Austin winning the best season award at the awards show they had (last year?). That was a funny joke. I personally really liked Paris but I know a lot of people didn't, or found it boring. I like boring. I think LV and Philly would be down in my "worst" category too, with Austin and Denver. Then Sydney would rank a wee bit above those 4 for me.

I loved Rachel and Danny. Couldn't stan nehemiah or lacey. I liked Wes until he pulled that stuff with Rachel. Johanna was okay and Melinda was cool.

I liked Philly and Las Vegas. Even though LV was trashy, I liked the cast. For me, Denver and Austin were just missing the roommate you connected with, none of them just wowed me. Sydney had Paris and Isaac but the season was just boring.

I liked Sydney....the fights where great....a lot of drama.

Did anyone watch Coral from B2NY on Camp Reality when she was on a couple yrs ago? Its on itunes. Should I buy it?
Kiki_#38
I didn't see a whole lot of Denver... All I remember is Brooke's eyes popping out of her head when she was yelling at someone (Jenn I think?) and Stephen and Davis getting into it because Davis was gay and he told Stephen, "Did you wake up one day and decide to be black?"

I actually liked Paris a lot. CT taking credit for those flowers that came was just classic!

I totally agree... I really liked Danny on Austin... But that reunion was a big turning point for me... then on all the challenges I've seen him on he seems the same way as he was at that reunion... I would have voted for him for hottest male castmember for the awards... but couldn't stand the thought of his head getting bigger if he won!!!!

I agree I thought that Danny was okay on his season but on the reunion and challenges that followed I didn't like him that much.

I think MTV should stick with the seasons that were crazy. (DENVER & HOLLYWOOD) Brooklyn was kind of boring.

Yeah but the TRW wasn't always crazy until Las Vegas.

And Willie freaking out over her having scabies. I remember him saying, "I'm such a queen about these things."

That was the funniest episode that season. I watched it at least 20 times.

Yes. I did not really watch any of the earlier seasons. But if they were like Brookyln, then i know i wouldnt of liked them.

So which Real Worlders/Road Rulers do you think would of been better on the opposite show? I see Veronica and Katie being great on RW and was surprised that they made it on RR. I expected Ellen to be on RW, or Coral to be on RR. I think the Quest would of been great with Coral instead of Jisela. Ruthie would have been a great Roadie. Angela and Danny from X-treme would make great Real Worlders. Especailly Angela in Paris and Ace on Road Rules. From the current seasons, I could see Dunbar, Devyn, Jenn, and Brooke being great Roadies.

Brooke on road rules? She doesn't like doing that stuff.

I seen the Austin trailer the other day too while watching some of the episodes. It looked like it was going to be a good season, what happened? The trailer honestly made it look like Danny was sick. The trailer was dramatic.

Either did Jisela, Sarah, Angela, Cara, etc.

I could see Tina being entertaining on RW and Julie(New Orleans) as Rod Rulers.

Brooke has said herself that she hates doing physical stuff. Why would she want to go on Road Rules?

I agree with you about Veronica and Katie. Wasn't Katie on Coral Vision once though? So they let some of the RR'ers do RW things. And if RR was still being made, I'm sure people like Jenn, Davis, Dunbar, KellyAnne, Scott, Ryan, etc. would be on that rather than RW.
