The Real World has been filming its 21st season in Brooklyn, and it's shaping up to be the most ridiculous, melodramatic, soap-tastic season yet.  Mormons and soldiers and violence, oh my! 

 This season's house is a giant warehouse-y deal in Red Hook.  Is MTV trying to capitalize on the new hot nabe, or are they purposely putting the castmates in a no-man's-land without public transportation so as to contain the inevitable outbreak of chlamydia that they'll generate?  Watch and see. 

Watching TV this bad is like eating an entire pint of Ben & Jerry's "Magic Brownies" ice cream.  Feels sooooooo good while you're doing it, but immediately afterward, you start to feel dirty and ashamed.  

Actually, this might be even worse.  This is like eating an entire bag of pork rinds.  Alone, naked, and crying.  

UPDATE:  It seems that MTV has taken down the trailer that THEY themselves posted on THEIR OWN website.  Nerts!  If I can find another copy of the trailer elsewhere, I will re-post here.  Sorry to raise your hopes and dash your expectations.
