Usually, casting news isn't normally news. (By the way, if you want to know what the scheduled casting dates are for Real World 19 and Fresh Meat 2 scroll down.) However, this yet unannounced casting date is a bit out of the ordinary.
BMP will be casting on Saturday October 21 in Lubbock, Texas (no details on where yet) from 10am to 5pm. The interesting thing is that there will be several castmembers holding an appearance the same night in Lubbock at Beer Garden. Mark (USA Tour I) is confirmed to be there and there should be other castmembers showing up.
So, for you Real World/Road Rules aficionados who live in Texas, this should be a special treat for you. Try to get on the show during the day and hang out with castmembers at night.

Fresh Meat 2 is now casting, which probably means that Road Rules was passed up by MTV again
Over at the Bunim-Murray casting webpage, there is somewhat of an official announcement saying that they are currently casting for the Fresh Meat 2 Challenge.
Fresh Meat 2 is being casted alongside Real World 19, which has yet to have announced its host city. The Fresh Meat concept came from the fact that there were not as many Road Rules castmembers available to do Challenges as there were Real World castmembers. So, in order to offset that, newbies were brought in to liven up the Challenges. The news of Fresh Meat 2 comes as a bit of a surprise, as there were expectations that Road Rules 14 would be reformatted and come back as a series. Since Fresh Meat 2 is being casted, MTV most likely decided against renewing Road Rules once again.
This new edition of Fresh Meat will be filmed after the 14th season of the Challenge (presumably The Inferno 3) which will begin filming this month in South Africa.

Cara and Susie may be going to South Africa says Cameran's MySpace
Well, although I don't like reporting on stories of this nature because they are ambigious at best, a posting on Cameran's (San Diego) MySpace may reveal that both Cara (South Pacific) and Susie (Australia) may be headed to the next Challenge.
Here's the text of the comment:
Cammie, It's Monica Ericson. I just thought you should know that Cara and I are about to go start some trouble. Won't be the same without your skinny buns.
Now, maybe we're just reading into this waay too much... Maybe both Cameran and Susie have a mutual friend named Monica Ericson, who have a third friend named Cara, which coincidentally may or may not be South Pacific's Cara. Maybe Monica, Cameran and Cara take regular trips together. Or it really means what we think it means and we'll be seeing Susie and Cara in South Africa.
Update: The post was directed toward both Cara and Susie going to a party in South Carolina, which incidentally is Cameran's hometown.

New Challenge set in South Africa may be the third Inferno
Yes, the folks over there at Get Real Denver are reporting that this Challenge, currently slated to begin filming mid-October will be the second sequel to the Inferno. Now the first Inferno was obviously Real World vs. Road Rules, while the second Inferno was "Good Guys" vs. "Bad Asses". No word on what the "twist" will be this time around.
Also, they're reporting that Stephen (Denver) might have joined Colie (Denver) and Davis (Denver) as Denver castmates slated to appear in the new Challenge. I'm also getting a substantial amount of emails confirming various other alumni through hearsay in the internet. No concrete information as of yet, but we'll soon be getting confirmations.

Update: Castmembers begin to leave for Challenge in South Africa beginning 10/16
So, after we reported on that news that Get Real Denver reported on, we've received seperate confirmation that many castmembers will begin to leave the States headed for South Africa, on or around October 16. So, the fourteenth installment of the Challenge is NOT filming right at this moment.
This piece of information also corroborates the timeframe that Beth S. (Los Angeles) posted on her MySpace page. (She actually also commented that the news of Davis (Denver) leaving as "several weeks early".) Stay tuned for more news.

Get Real Denver claims new Challenge may have already began filming
In an interesting turn of events, Get Real Denver is reporting that the next Challenge, supposedly to film in South Africa, has already begun filming.
The website, which follows the new, upcoming Denver season of The Real World, claims that Davis (Denver) has already left for the Challenge. This would be a surprising turn of events, as little has been heard about who's actually confirmed to be there.
The Challenge's exotic locale may actually pose a problem to castmembers who spread the word of what's going on during the Challenge, so this may explain the reason why so little is known at this particular moment. If it is filming, it only becomes a matter of time before more and more castmembers are sent home, that we will learn more about who's there, who's doing well and who's being kicked off.
Update: Davis has actually left the country to be with his boyfriend, who is currently studying abroad in Argentina. He will leave from Argentina to South Africa next month.

Tired of the "reality tv life", Katie decides to move to Chicago
Everyone who is a fan knows that there is an extensive network of Real World and Road Rules castmembers living in Los Angeles. Reality television almost becomes this alternative reality where castmembers fall into a black hole of appearances, parties, Challenges, club promotions and college speaking engagements.
So, in a cathartic post over at her MySpace, Katie (The Quest) explains her reasons for deciding to move out of Los Angeles to avoid the reality TV lifestyle.
While a frequent problem for many castmembers, it's been known that certain alumni have struggled with the realities of life after MTV. As documented on MTV's True Life, we saw Tonya (Chicago) go through similar emotions. Although Katie has decided to move out of Los Angeles, she says she is not retiring from Challenges. But Katie's move also means she will not be a part of the next Challenge filming in South Africa. Good luck to Katie in her endeavors!
