    You can’t get much more real world then two Cat 5 hurricanes. Also, I hated The Real World, the moment that garbage came on, it was time to change the channel. I know online streaming/youtube has replaced MTV’s niche, but MTV of the late 80’s through the 90’s will always hold a special place in my heart.

      The very first season of The Real World was good. Not only was it unlike anything else on television at the time since reality shows weren’t a thing, all of the people in the house were creatives- painters, writers, musicians, etc.

      Then one of them turned out to be an asshole and people liked the controversy and MTV said, “what if we just increased the asshole factor and forget about the creative factor?”
