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.

Discussion thread about Real World: St Thomas - Brandon Swift with 30 replies from the Vevmo community.
23 years old, originally hails from Edison, New Jersey, but may be currently residing in Philadelphia, where he went to Temple. He goes by Swift. He is a Pisces, so he would have celebrated his birthday in St. Thomas. Brandon used to wrestle while at Edison High School in the 140 and 145 lb weight classes. He also played football and was a running back. Listed as a junior on the 2005 roster at 5'7, 155, he would have graduated in 2007. This video below from MTV gives his name as Brandon S, and we know from other posters that he goes by Swift. Friends retweeting the videos give their area as Philadelphia and say he is a TU alum. I could give you his cell phone number, but that'd be going a little too far. I would also say, based on his friends tweets, that he does not have a Twitter account, as they have always called him "Swift", not "@_____". MTV Bio:
Brandon Swift, who goes by Swift, recently graduated from Temple University with a Business Administration degree in legal studies. In addition to having entrepreneurial aspirations, he also wants to become a sports and entertainment lawyer, a career he may be ideally suited for. Swift will argue his point endlessly and he's easily fired up when he feels disrespected. But there's another side to him, one that is charming, charismatic and drives the ladies wild. A strong sense of loyalty he has for his friends and family also causes people to gravitate towards him. Currently, Swift is working as a VIP host at a popular local club. He is conflicted about relationships. Girls tend to get obsessed with him and while he's not exactly ready to settle down, he finds the player's life shallow and empty. Will he find depth with one of his female roommates or will he just end up playing her?

Nostalgic;303466 wrote:Why?
I just hope that he isn't the one that's gay though.
Nostalgic;303466 wrote:So what if he was?
Awesome. I knew Swift had to be his last or first name which I think is cool. I just hope that he isn't the one that's gay though. And yeah he looks like him and brandon could be the same height.
FishHooks;303526 wrote:Yeah right. Not everyone needs a Twitter. Tbh its crap. Besides what does that have to do with it?
The lack of a twitter makes me think he might be a player who stays on the DL to keep from getting busted.

Nostalgic;303553 wrote:I'm not getting anything twisted, I'm asking a question. Why do you hope he's not gay? Would you change your opinion of him if you found out he was?
Don't get it twisted. I just said how I feel.
molds13;303554 wrote:Not at all. Im just saying it is too predictable. That and we don't need anymore Prestons or Stephens. I still think hes cool anyway.

FishHooks;303526 wrote:No twitter = player? Hm, that might be a bit of stretch. I don't know that many people who have a twitter, and that doesn't mean they're trying to hide their business, they just think it's pointless.

I'll have to wait and see if I like him or not, don't know enough about him.

Nostalgic;306613 wrote:He doesn't have to be and he may not be. He seems standoffish from the rest of the cast to me. The Real World does not cast quiet loners ergo I fear he will be that way. Doesn't matter because if he gets in lots of arguments it could make for good TV (assuming the arguments are more meaty than say the ones on San Diego). I think the other Brandon might be that way to. If that makes me "too hard" then so be it. It isn't like my first impression really matters to anyone, let alone him/them.
Oh please FishHooks why does he have to be arrogant or a punk? People are two hard these days.

SNIP.

It is hard to have critical analysis not to come across as opinionated criticism I guess sometimes.
