Real World Denver premiere day news chatter round-up

There's a lot of small chatter of The Real World premiering tonight. Here's a look at a couple of articles:


New York Times

What's On Tonight
By Kathryn Shattuck

10 P.M. (MTV) THE REAL WORLD
In this 18th -- count 'em -- season premiere, seven strangers take up residence in the LoDo (for Lower Downtown) section of Denver, where during the day they work as Outward Bound counselors for adolescents affected by Hurricane Katrina while tearing up the Mile High City at night.

The Rocky Mountain News

Probably the most interesting articles are coming from this paper. In this exclusive, they detail several events in the first episode. (Highlight to read) They drink a lot. Some girl-on-girl action happens when they get in the hot tub. (This is not the Jenn/Brooke clip we saw.) "Stephen proves that African-American frat boys can be bigots too." And then, Alex hooks up with both Jenn and Colie and then you see Jenn apologizing to Colie.

They also have an article that interviews Jon Murray, creator of The Real World and he addresses several things. It went to press today, so it's on the website yet. He mentions how Alex ends up with Jenn and Colie. Brooke hates the Outward Bound job, but then goes through the most profound change during the sesason. Tyrie's passionate side gets him into trouble. And Brooke has a problem about how Davis still makes out with women and the Stephen/Davis friendship expands rapidly rather than deteriorates.

Then he addresses the notion that the show has focused increasingly on alcohol. He actually says that they try to stay away from the heavy drinkers and he attributes the difference to kids using "alcohol differently than they did in 1992."
