Yes, the 16th season of MTV's the Real World is to be shot in Austin. Said the executive vp for series entertainment Lois Curren, "As the live-music capital of the nation and home to a thriving college community, Austin is the perfect backdrop for 'The Real World's' 16th season."
Now everytime I drive down to Austin to eat at Pappsito's I've got to worry if a film crew is going to be there. Great.

:yawn: this is old news.
hope to see them down on sixth street next semester.
Just more proof that I'm always the last to know.
Don't worry Nate, I just found out as well. You would think us members of the Reality Based community would know about the latest actions of The Real World....
Maybe we could stage a protest? You know - against reality television. Might help keep us sharp in the "off season."
Besides, aren't you tired of the "dumbing down" of our culture? America is one of the few places in the world where "intellectual" is considered an insult.

Oh, Brian, you are a man after my own heart! :) i totally agree with that statement. I watched one Real World about a decade ago--the one in San Fransisco. The early ones were okay, but it was a novelty back then. People are more outrageous and and obnoxious than ever.
Yes, intellectual is considered an insult here, by about 51% of the population. ;)
