Behind the Screen: The Real World: St. Thomas - Paradise Found

For over two decades, MTV's The Challenge has been the proving ground where reality TV's fiercest competitors come to cement their legacies. What started as a Real World/Road Rules spinoff has evolved into one of the most physically and mentally demanding competition series on television.

The franchise's expansion — with spinoffs in the USA, UK, Argentina, and Australia — speaks to a global appetite for the brand of cutthroat competition and alliance-driven gameplay that Vevmo's community has been tracking since 2007.

For the first time ever I'm actually not looking forward to this premiere. The cast all just seems so over the top annoying...

The Real World: St. Thomas - Paradise Found

Seven strangers arrive on the island of St. Thomas and promptly check out their posh new pad, and each other, in the Season 27 opener. It doesn't take long for one roommate to feel left out as he falls for a girl who's falling for someone else.

After last season, they could feed us canned spam and we'd think it was filet mignon. That said, I did get a better vibe through the "pre-season" this year and hope the first episode overwhelms. It is crunch time for the series.

I miss the pre-season thing last night, so I have no idea what they're like.

At least Marie's tattoo adventure after being drunk isn't as bad as most end up.

Honestly, I would probably do the same thing in her case. It's not like she did it on purpose.

That was the first look. I was speaking more about what we have learned about them during filming. As far as last night, it was just the first 5 minutes.

is this the first time that the roomates have met each other before they got to the house?

It would seem she does not have a filter. That could be a good or bad thing. Time will tell.

Yes, it seems that way.

Oh alrighty. Well I haven't kept up with this season beforehand either. That's probably why I'm not as excited as usual.

Who knew that Brandon would actually admit to working at Forever 21...
TDMEL52#14
Why did they have 4 of the roomates meet in their hometown instead of all at the house?? Also, Brandon could he have more of a boston accent.

I'm sure they had their reasons as to why some of them met before making it to St. Thomas.

Did they get the football back???
fabulous788#17
I'm really liking the look of this house compared to last season.

Ok and? He's not the first or the last.

"I feel like the Captain with Ginger." That made me laugh.

No filter marie, its gonna cause issues.

He just didn't look like the typical Forever 21 worker that I've seen in my experience there. Actually I've never seen a guy work at Forever 21. I'm not saying it's a bad thing.

and for the record B2SD house was nice too. Except when Frank broke ****.

They have them for time to time but particularly hire women.

I love this house, but last season's was definitely fantastic as well. Until hurricane Frank.

I only watched the first couple of episodes of last season, so I don't really remember much of the house. All the RW houses are great, I just really like this one :)
Wilderwolf#29
I seem to be one of the few who actually liked last season.
wutzrenzi#30
Ugh, they are all so likable within the first 20 minutes. I can't say the same for the last few seasons and their first 20 minutes into the premiere (for me). So we'll see how everything goes later on.
Calinks#31
I will have to watch the immediate replay but I haven't seen the show trending on twitter which may be a bad omen. The last couple of challenges trended pretty regularly.
