Stephen from the Denver season does a pre-season chat with the Washington Post

Stephen (Denver), whose season hasn't even begun to air yet, has done an interview/chat with the Washington Post.

Aside from mentioning Colie (Denver) and Ty (Denver) and the relationship Stephen has with both of them now, there isn't really "insight" to what this season will hold. Stephen is under contract, so he can't reveal much about his time on the show.

Regardless, the chat is a particularly interesting window into Stephen's personality and character. It should give you a heads-up to what to look for when this next season premieres in less than a month.

Paula was on the Tyra Banks Show talking about her season, Jose shows up to give support

In an item that was missed, Paula (Key West) showed up to talk to Tyra Banks on her show shortly before she left for South Africa for the new Challenge.

Paula spoke about how she was forced to come to terms with her eating disorder and the fact that she needed help once she came to Florida. She says that watching the episode made her painfully aware of how she was ignoring help and only her roommates opened the door for her to get help for herself. She told the audience to seek help if they thought they needed it and not to be afraid to let others in.

Then Jose (Key West) surprised Paula with flowers and came out just to give her his support. We wish all the luck to both Paula and Jose in the future.

Which castmembers should be brought back for the All-Star season? You decide!

Since they are bringing back six original castmembers to start off in the winnebago this season, we thought that this would call for a poll.

If you want to put your two cents in about who should be a part of Road Rules 14, check out our online poll. You do have to register at our message board to vote, but after you register and vote, be sure to stick around our board and talk with other fans about this new upcoming season.

We'll be posting the "dream team", the group of six castmembers (three male, three female) who you voted for the most on the main page sometime soon and we'll also be posting a somewhat comprehensive list of alternates as well. So what are you waiting for? Vote!

The Real World Denver moves to Wednesdays; Premiere is on November 22

Yes, yet another switch in the schedules. After moving Challenge nights from Mondays to Thursdays, folks over at MTV thought it would be appropriate to run The Real World on Wednesday nights.

After the promos started running regularly over on the channel, MTV announced that its first episode will air November 22nd (the day before Thanksgiving). So don't forget to set your Tivo's and DVRs.

The only thing that would make this complete is if they put Road Rules on Tuesday nights. Then you would have three consecutive nights of the best shows on television.

Road Rules is officially back on MTV, new season premieres in February

After a long hiatus, BMP has been successful in resurrecting Real World's sister show: Road Rules.

Yes, The Hollywood Reporter is reporting that Road Rules will be back in January, under a different format (as we have told you in the past), where viewers will actually get to select who gets to go and who stays.

This is good news for us, as we can bring you the latest updates as they occur. They will be airing episodes in sets of two, one airing on the channel and the other airing on Overdrive.

What's more interesting, however, is that there are reporting that six of the most "infamous" castmembers will be returning to the wheel for the first time around. So, does this make it more of a Road Rules reunion or a Challenge-like show? And will other former castmembers replace these evictees?

This is the first announcement, but there is most likely more news to come. Welcome back to Road Rules!

Update: CNN posts an article.

Diem, Casey, Evan, Robin, and Mark will be in Lubbock tonight for Duel premiere party

In accordance with the casting call going down in Lubbock, Texas today at the Beer Garden & Daiquiri Lounge, Diem (Fresh Meat), Casey (Fresh Meat), Evan (Fresh Meat) and Robin (Fresh Meat) will all be making appearances tonight at the bar to celebrate the season premiere of the Duel. ]

Presumably, they'll be screening the Duel as well, so be sure to catch them all there tonight if you're in Lubbock.

Also, Mark (USA Tour 1), a veteran and retiree of the Challenges, will be on hand to host the event. The party, which is hosted by RxLive, will give fans a chance to interact and celebrate the premiere of this new season of the Challenge. Casting ends at 5 today and the party starts later on tonight.

Tyler hits up Blair in Episode #2's Aftershow talking about everything and anything

Freshly voted off, Tyler (Key West) visited Blair (The Quest) in the Aftershow this week, bringing us a whole bunch of dirt and his view of the cast.

Tyler begins by explaining how he knew that he would be targeted on the Challenge, even if a couple of Fresh Meaters were there. He also talked about how it was difficult for him, because he didn't like his cast too much.

Tyler then accuses Beth (Los Angeles) of being in bed with Nehemiah (Austin). He used this as an example of being as a disadvantage of The Duel, as the rest of the cast picked who they wanted to hook up with.

He also explains his choice in picking Johnny Bananas (Key West). He wanted to go against John because he knew that he had an advantage against John. But then, he explains his change of heart in picking Derrick (Extreme) the next time around. He also calls the guys cowards.

He calls Tina (South Pacific) and Beth S. (Los Angeles) bitches. Then he starts on his "popular" and "non-popular" rant about how "popular" castmembers gang up against "non-popular" castmembers (aka Beth). Then he calls everyone trashy for calling Tina trashy. He then goes into the Casey (Fresh Meat) and John connection as "Dumb and Dumber." He then praises Diem (Fresh Meat) and how he, Brad (San Diego) and Wes (Austin) cried after she took off her wig. Tyler says that he would want to come back, but only if he can play nasty this next time.

Then it was time for the game they play for talking crap about other castmembers for a free trip:

Kina (Extreme) - "No amount of hairspray will ever take the Jersey out of this girl."
Tina - "Fat, Asian chick"
Svetlana - Uses her "tits" to her advantage.
Aneesa - She looks like she's been used and abused on the corner of Rodeo.
Kenny (Fresh Meat) - Has a wrestling ring in his backyard, lives with his parents and has cartoon bedsheets.
CT (Paris) - Spawn of Satan. Male version of Emily Rose.

And the S$%* you Didn't See: Tyler and Kenny watching Evan (Fresh Meat) stretch out Wes. CT flirts with Tyler. Robin and Tyler dancing. Aneesa, Diem and Tyler highkicking.

Duel Episode #2: Tina is kicked off, Evan wins, Tyler goes to the Duel and is sent home by Derrick

Last night's episode of the Duel was exciting once again. As we told you, Tyler was targeted and the systematic elimination of the Key West cast continued.

Tina (South Pacific) was quickly sent home by TJ Lavin, who quickly told her that she would go home for what she did. Tina knew she'd go home, so she left without much of a fight.

The mission was a pairs mission with guys choosing girls. Evan (Fresh Meat) and Jodi (Extreme) pull out the win and then starts the chain. Eventually, Casey (Fresh Meat) is pressured to choose between Kenny (Fresh Meat) and Tyler (Key West), so she picks Kenny.

Tyler, in a surprise move, chooses Derrick, who sends him home. Next week: Aneesa (Chicago) is the center of controversy and the rollerderby mission looks rough for the girls.

Another Duel chatfest: Evan will also be chatting it up with BuddyTV tonight

Evan (Fresh Meat) will also be chatting it up with fans in the BuddyTV chatrooms.

If you're still not clued into what BuddyTV is, it's this chat platform where you can interact with a moderator who has a camera and a microphone pointed straight at them. In the case of Evan and Derrick (Extreme), they will be chatting while the Duel is airing on TV.

Evan will be on BuddyTV from 9:30 to 11:00PM EST. Don't forget to catch both Evan and Derrick tonight while you catch the latest episode of the Duel!

Don't forget to catch Derrick tonight in his online chat with BuddyTV

Derrick (Extreme) has made a regular habit of showing up at BuddyTV in chatting with fans of the show.

Here's how it works: You go to the website at 10PM PST. Derrick will be in the chatroom with a camera and a mic pointed straight at him. He'll sit there and watch the episode along with all you PST people (Tape the episode if you want to watch it along with him.), and he responds to any comments or questions that you may have about the episode.

It's a nice way to interact with a castmember and ask someone up front questions about what was going down in Brazil. So, if you're available, tonight is the BuddyTV chat with Derrick.

BMP tries out strange casting technique for the next few days in Atlanta, GA

BMP has been hitting up different cities around the country all month in hopes of finding the perfect cast for The Real World 19 and Fresh Meat 2. But BMP recently posted a weird message at their casting page, asking people to send requests for them to review groups.

Yes, BMP is searching for student organizations in Atlanta, GA to be a part of the next two casts. We don't know why this is. However, I'm sure it has something to do with the "type" of people that BMP wants to cast. (IE. Maybe they want people who are casted in the confines of a bar or a nightclub.) Anyway, it's all speculation.

Atlanta and Lubbock, TX are the last two cities on BMP's list and no word yet if there will be any last minute additions for this season's casting calls.

Tyler will be performing his stand-up act with Three Dollar Bill at the Upright Citizens Brigade

Tyler (Key West), who is now living in Los Angeles post-Real World, will be performing with Three Dollar Bill at the Upright Citizen's Brigade.

Tyler is going to be performing an act that's based on his recent move to Los Angeles, so be sure to catch the act if you live in the area. It's a rather small theatre, so make sure to show up somewhat early to get tickets.

5919 Franklin Ave.,
Hollywood, CA
(323) 465-7980

The event starts at 9:30PM and it's this Friday, October 20. If you're in the LA area, be sure to support Tyler and his new comedy act.

Duel Spoiler Alert #2: Will Tina go home for hitting Beth? What's up next for the Duelists?

The question here for tonight's episode, by the way which airs at 10PM EST/9PM CT tonight, is whether or not Tina (South Pacific) will get sent home from the Duel. Now, stop reading any further if you do not want to know the details of the episode, because we're about to give them to you.

Last week, we see Diem (Fresh Meat) win the mission. The group was then supposed to gather so a girl could be picked to Duel. Well, there isn't a chance of this, as TJ Lavin will send Tina (South Pacific) home. Yes, Tina is sent home after this incident, but expect some great quotes in the aftermath.

So, most likely, we'll see at least the next mission unfold for the guys. I can't tell you who wins, but we can tell you that it still doesn't look friendly for (highlight to read) Tyler (Key West). He still has a target on his back.

Be sure to catch tonight's episode!
