Tue Mar 09 2010Basically, the "Jersey Shore" without Italians. Untalented, overblown nothings bitch and squabble with each other when they're not fucking, in Philadelphia, or Boston, or L.A., or Hawaii, or wherever. Just in case things are going too harmoniously (who would wanna watch that?), the producers always make sure to throw in a black person or 2, or maybe someone gay, just to ratchet up the "dramatic" tension. TV designed for, created by, and "starring," the dregs of humanity.

Tue Mar 09 2010The grandfather of the whole ridiculous, insidious genre. There may be an earlier ancestor of that junk, but this bullshit has been on for about two decades now. As Nancy Reagan used to say about drugs, just...say...no.

Thu Apr 10 2008One of the reality shows that helped to start this ridiculous trend in crappy TV. Ninth one star rating in the MTV test.

Mon Sep 12 2005the show that opened the door for reality tv? i wish it would have shut the door behind it! how do you explain the same immature drama that goes on in any college town being worthy of a reality tv show... oh yeah, it's Mtv. i think it should SRWtv. Sucky Real World television.

Tue Mar 15 2005The one that started it all, and one that is still going strong, without the need for eliminations and gimmicks.

Tue Mar 01 2005It is an important show. It opened a lot of doors for reality tv. I never watched it because I did not grow up in the US, but the last few season I saw were not that great. But I hear the first ones were pretty good.

Mon Apr 19 2004Lost interest in this one after Hawai it's all about either the bitch or the ass hole. They have to have at least on token homosexual. They have lost sight of what the show was all about. Best cast was London then L.A.

Mon Mar 08 2004Even though there have been reality tv shows for a long time...they just weren't ever really called that until this show debuted. This is the original show that started the whole trend. And it was a really good show at that. MTV was obviously way ahead of its time with this show.....it has started a trend that is now completely out of control as only 1 in 10 reality shows are even worth watching...

Wed Feb 18 2004The Real World it is so called! Well, we know that they don't pay their rent or anything like that. I must say that it is truly no longer a documentary. It is now truly a soap Opera. Of course it always has been to an extent. But I think the Best season was Boston! Because we learned so much about different issues and we saw as it seemed like people going through real Problems. We saw Genesis and her sturggle with her Mom and other issues! We see Sean learn about Black people from Syrus, and you see him truly understand their culture to some extent, or get a better picture of what Black people go through. We see Jason view certain things about life and really realize what is going on in his life, and learn alot about him. Montana we see go through problems with men. She was my least favorite of the show, I didn't like the way she did VAJ, but as Sean once said on the show She needs attention from men even if it destory's her life. We see when the cast goes to Portrico Montana talk abo... Read more

Thu Oct 16 2003The reason for the decline and fall of MTV.
by albundy
Wed Sep 24 2003MTV only chooses subjects who can create a sexual tension. It's all about voyeurism and ratings, showing young people in sexy situations or (they hope) wearing little or nothing. I'm not against sex by any means, but by now the participants know how they are expected to act, and they hope to parlay this into something else later. It's the farthest thing from reality when you KNOW cameras are watching. Personally, I'd like to see the MUSIC put back into MTV!!!!!

Tue Jul 01 2003How can they call this the Real World? Mtv takes a group of people and pays all of their expences. Where's the reality in that? The people are just as fake. It's obvious that they're putting on a show for the cameras. Why else would they act so out of control?
by whodabe
Tue Jul 01 2003I loved this show when it came out, lately or every since Seattle it's been going downhill, I would give it a 5 but the latest cast (vegas) drove me crazy.. actually it should get lower than a 3, but I remember what it used to be and I have to up the score some.

Thu Apr 10 2003First, where's the reality in this show? My wife loves this tripe, and I can't understand why. Personally, I think whoever created the idea should be set on fire in public as a warning to the other media executives. Yeah!

Fri Apr 04 2003look forward to a new cast every year.

Mon Mar 17 2003Reality TV is like a pesky vine flower, slowly growing over the television, some like it and a few hate it. MTV is just a stupid station that targets the lowest-common denominator with its brand of moronic “entertainment.” In no show is this more obvious than in “The Real World.” Television should be a means of escapism, and there are a lot of good stations (such as on TV Land, Nick at Nite, ABC Family, Hallmark) that provide family-friendly grooviness. But, then, there are stations like NBC (except for the brilliant “Frasier”), E!, Comedy Central and VH-1 with no redeeming value. MTV is even worse than those last four stations and that is why I call it Many Terrifying Visions. The concept of this show is like one of hundreds of reality shows. A few people move together in an environment with a bad reputation (such as ‘Las Vegas’) The main characters abuse alcohol. We all know that alcohol abuse is senseless and highly illogical. You lose your self-control and are really committing del... Read more

Sun Mar 16 2003"Fake" World is more like it.
by smtnd02a
Sun Feb 23 2003Why the hell is crap on the air?? #1 The Real World does not consist of 12 lazy spoiled whiny brats who b*tch about everything. The Real World is about working and living your life. #2. Last time I checked MTV stood for "music television" but since half the sh*t on mtv has nothing to do with music anymore. we have to put up with sh*t like this. I wonder when MTV will air a Pink Floyd video?

Tue Feb 11 2003This is one of my favorite shows! I hope it never ends!!!!

Sat Nov 09 2002Love the concept: strangers put together to live under one roof, etc...But the seasons are only gonna be as good as the people they pick want to make it. Sure, even though it's reality based, the producers can tamper with their choices to some extent, but they have no way of knowing how the individual will respond. I think it was a entertainment risk that worked out wonderfully. And I like the way the characters sometimes get really bold in front of the camera. Of course we don't get to see the real personalities of all the characters cause you have to think, they know there is a camera there. Sometimes i think the attention seekers try to put on an exciting show, but anyway, this one rocks!

Tue Oct 08 2002The first 8 or 9 Real Worlds were great. Many of them taught us very important lessons and exposed our generation to a wide spectrum of people who were both fascinating and inspiring. This is why I watched the Real World. Don't get me wrong, the fight between Tami and David in Season 2 was the best, however my point is that the new RWs SUCK! Where did MTV find these dull, boring and just plain STUPID people? I was so annoyed at that Trishslut girl while watching RW12 that I refuse to watch this or future episodes/seasons anymore. Its trash!!!!

Tue Feb 05 2002This season sucks. The people are cliched and boring. Terrible casting. I've seen better in earlier seasons.
by missi_marie
Sat Feb 02 2002I know the Real World is awesome. People critize it badly,but they know the real world is KEWL.The houses are sweet. It's also cool how they pick seven different people to come and live together. And they are good actors and actresses. My favorite episode would have to be The Real World 10, New York. And my favorite people would have to be, Lori,Coral,and Melik. So, sure I think they should keep on with the Real Worlds. I'm watching the new one right now.

Sat Jan 19 2002I just watched the first episode of the new Chicago Season. I love it. No freaks, just an interesting crew! I love KYLE. I was intrigued by the whole cast!

Sun Jan 06 2002I absoulety love Real world. It was like the original in the reality tv Buzz. I loved the seattle season
by nyrhapsody212
Sat Jun 16 2001This show is definitely an original and I like it because it is. The "seven stranger" are always equally interesting in each season. I have to say my favorite was the Seattle Season. It had this sensitive, intellectual, cozy feel to it. I only hope the new season will do as well despite all the attention to those stupid reality game shows. Real World is the REAL SURVIVOR because its dramatical in-depth conflicts are derived from a simple and smart method.
by callmetootie
Wed Apr 11 2001I remember when The Real World was reall popular, but all shows on MTV are really bad. This show was extremly trashy and the people on it we're so horribly put into it, and they are so gross and disgusting, and they all want to have sex, and it's just disgusting.
by ericthefederal_ist
Wed Apr 04 2001I loved watching this in Chile, but I never thought of it as a show like "Survivor", "Big Brother" "The Mole", & the Norwegian "The Pub". Maybe because it's a MTV production, MTV is too entertaining for me to think of some of the shows as "Reality TV"...

by xiala_proserpine
Fri Feb 23 2001Although this show shows how dumb people can be, I always find myself watching it when I flip through channels. Retards are fun to watch, I guess. THE REAL WORLD is not having all this money and this nice house. You wanna play REAL WORLD? Put them in the ghetto of Los Angeles and give them a gun.
