Welcome back to the blog.
First, an explanation is in order. In a month without updating, several posters had taken over the comments section and had "announced" that I was dead. In an unfortunate series of events, they managed to convince some people of an imaginary family grieving over the loss of their father. Let me assure you, this is not true. The comments section is entirely out of hand at times and I am seriously considering permanently shutting it down. There seems to be one or two posters who ruin it for everyone, but Blogger has yet to introduce features to ban these troublemakers.
Over the past few weeks, I have been inundated with work in real life and it has become increasingly difficult to keep up regular postings on the Blog. Some have even commented that in the past few months before that, the quality of posts had gone down anyway. There a lot of reasons for this, not only personal. But the "spoiler environment" has quickly dissipated in the past few years. Production is more sporadic than it has been in the past. There is usually more than one season filming at a time, but it has been almost a full month since Hollywood stopped filming and six months since the Gauntlet finished production. In addition, a lot of the information that castmembers share with their fans is now relegated to MySpace, making it difficult to centralize information.
Nevertheless, I know people still enjoy reading this site, so I'm opening up the author duties to anyone who wants to come into a collaborative effort to join the blog. You will most likely be a part of a team of bloggers who will post regular updates on the internet. Before I post a detailed list of instructions and expectations, I want to gauge what kind of interest is out there. If you think that you will be interested in posting to the blog, email me at newrwroad@hotmail.com. Further instructions will follow.
As for the future of the site, it's not closing anytime soon. I will be posting as updates come and go, so keep on checking in. Thanks for being a loyal reader to the site and have a wonderful day.

The relationships in the house seem to be busting at the seams (No pun intended) when the two couples seem to run into trouble.
On tonight's episode, Kelly Anne (Sydney) and Cohutta (Sydney) experience the second pregnancy scare in the history of the Real World. This time, they let us in the bedroom, as the condom breaks, and the two freak out over impending offspring. Last time, Steven (Las Vegas) and Trishelle (Las Vegas) had a freak-out when Trishelle was a few days late.
On the other side of the house, Ashli (Sydney) and Dunbar (Sydney) run into their own snags, at it seems like the two are finally getting to each other.
Will these relationships last? Post your reactions to tonight's episode here.
Kimberly (Hollywood) is another roommate on this season of The Real World. Apparently, all we know about her is that she's blond and is 25 years old. She was billed on the Whiskey Tango Foxtrot? flyer and she was seen in the video taken by the blogger who caught the seven strangers in action.
Here is her MySpace page, which is set to private.
Charna Halpern, founder of ioWest, the comedy troupe that the 20th season is working for, may be the group's boss.
Halpern has been with ioWest for more than 20 years and she is a renowned theater actress in Chicago. She is rumored by the Chicago Sun-Times to be the leader of the comedy troupe "Whiskey Tango Foxtrot", the group that the seven strangers came up with after interning with ioWest for the past couple of months.
And yes, much like other reviews that are online, they say that it seems that the seven strangers are horrible at improv. We'll see when this season airs.
A blogger over at The Josh Place has revealed the names of the new cast of The Real World which is currently filming in Hollywood.
Brittini, Brianna, Dave, Kimberly, Nick, Sarah and Will are supposedly the cast of the Real World Hollywood. This matches up with information we received on one of the castmembers, Brianna, who has a MySpace and was once a contestant on American Idol.
Conspicuously missing from this list is Greg, who won the MTV online casting round. Greg, reportedly unhappy with his roommates and job, was kicked off the show after he missed a performance to attend a runway show at Mercedes Benz Fashion Week. Apparently, he was fired by ioWest, a local comedy troupe in Hollywood, after he failed to appear in the show. It looks like he has since been replaced.
Tonight, Dunbar (Sydney) finally crosses the line: he has sex with Ashli (Sydney). We'll see how he handles the situation and whether he'll tell Julie. Also, we get our sixth roommate back as Isaac (Sydney) returns from his grandfather's funeral.
Isaac is happy to hear that Trisha (Sydney) was kicked out of the house, while the girls start warming up to the idea that it was possible that they had no real reason to hate Parisa (Sydney) for doing what she does. Ashli even admits that all she liked about Trisha was that she was fun to party with.
Parisa will also begin to get more comfortable with her decision as her roommates open up to her again.
Post your reactions to tonight's episode here.
Last night's episode saw Trisha (Sydney) go home at the hands of Parisa (Sydney) much to the the dismay of Kelly Anne (Sydney) and Ashli (Sydney). The girls have been the center of drama in the Sydney house since Day 1. With the exit of Shauvon (Sydney) and Trisha, does it get any better?
Last night's episode hinted that Kelly Anne and Ashli would be turning against Parisa after they were unhappy with Parisa's decision to send Trisha home. With Ashli joining Parisa's Contiki team, the tension is palpable.
Here's a small update:
If you look at Parisa's MySpace, Ashli's MySpace, and Kelly Anne's MySpace, you can see the three are on each other's Top Friends.
If you've been keeping a close eye, they'll post messages on each other's page insinuating that they get over the drama and make up. Kelly Anne also posted a message not too long ago about spitting on the window in the phone room yesterday. She claimed that she was drunk and that there was a lot of fights between her and Parisa before that, but she did call both Parisa and Trisha her friends.
Keep watching to see how this plays out, especially with the return of Isaac (Sydney), who apparently didn't like Trisha either.
Eighteen episodes into the season, it's finally what most people have been waiting for: the fight over the phone with Trisha (Sydney) and Parisa (Sydney). While last week showed everything leading up to the push, editors left us hanging, when Parisa has to decide whether or not to send Trisha home.
Tonight will be a good episode and most people are expecting Trisha to leave. It's all up to Parisa. How will she make this decision?
Post your reactions here.
Although MTV hasn't given its greenlight yet, Bunim-Murray Productions is already accepting applications for The Real World 21 and Road Rules 15. Check out their website, which has a small casting notice.
This would mean that Real World would continue going after its twentieth season and sixteenth year. Also, ever since Viewers' Revenge mostly disappointed fans, there hasn't been much talk about renewing the series. At least not yet. The casting notice suggests that Road Rules may very well be brought back as well.
So far, Hollywood and Gauntlet 3 are the last two productions to be filmed.
