• MTV’s Controversial New Show

    MTV’s Controversial New Show

    In the past decade, MTV has evolved from a network that aired mostly vapid shows that relate vaguely to music to one that tackles some of the most serious issues facing today’s youth. Often the focus of these programs are controversial in nature: we’ve seen specials on polyamory, cross-dressing, and body dysmorphic disorder.

  • Teen Mom: For Lessons or for Ratings?

    Teen Mom: For Lessons or for Ratings?

    Teen Mom. Yes, like most people, I am obsessed. I am still trying to figure out what Catelynn has that I don’t (besides braces, a trailer, and a 1995 JCPenny homecoming dress) that makes Tyler choose HER over me. SO unfair.

  • Jersey Shore: Bad for Guidos?

    Jersey Shore: Bad for Guidos?

    MTV is really getting their ass handed to them after the controversial premiere of the new reality series “Jersey Shore.” Not only has Dominos pulled out as an advertiser for the show, but MTV has also apparently received death threats from unhappy viewers.

    The 5 Questions We Ask Everyone: Styl’d Star, Julie Weiss

    Rachel Zoe may be the most well-known celebrity stylist out there, but not for long. Julie Weiss, stylist to the stars and mentor on MTV’s newest reality show Styl’d, is gonna give that skinny style maven a run for her (oodles of) money.

  • The Hills: Sorry Boo, Justin’s a Turd

    The Hills: Sorry Boo, Justin’s a Turd

    Back when JB was doin’ his thang with Audrina, we hated him for many reasons. Obviously, he was treating her like dirt, but he also had long, greasy hair, wore ugly hats and burped at the dinner table. G-to the-ross. When Krisin came into the picture it seemed that, much like his hygiene, Justin Bobby had cleaned up his act.

  • MTV Battles The Freshman 15

    MTV Battles The Freshman 15

    When we heard about the casting call for MTV’s reality show Freshman 15, we might have peed our pants a little. What could be more fun than watching freshman battle the bulge on national television (laughter, tears, and more than one beer and nacho binge guaranteed to ensue)? We are suckers for anything MTV, especially when it includes vulnerable freshies and crack-the-whip personal trainers.

  • House of Jazmin…The Hills 2.0?

    House of Jazmin…The Hills 2.0?

    So as I spent another long summer day mourning the loss of LC from my biggest guilty pleasure (yeah, I’m still not over it), a promo for a new MTV show, House of Jazmin, caught my eye. I don’t really get the spelling of her name, but Jaz is young, cute, and bound to have messy, dramatic hookups every week…

    Candy Dish: Heidi Montag’s First Live Performance

    • Well, at least it will be a show to remember.
    • What’s with all the shady over in New Jersey?

  • The Hills: Spencer Pratt Makes an Apology

    The Hills: Spencer Pratt Makes an Apology

    Anyone else forget that it was Monday yesterday? I spent my day BBQing with friends (or eating whatever they BBQed while I sat on the couch watching tv) only to come home, turn on my TV and realize I was halfway through The Hills. I was devastated (“SPENCER IS SUPPOSED TO APOLOGIZE TONIGHT!!”)…

  • The Reality of College Life.

    The Reality of College Life.

    “This isn’t reality television, this is real.” This is the way MTV describes “College Life,” a new reality show it will finally be premiering tomorrow night after a strange and secret date change. How is it different than every other reality show on MTV?

  • The Hills: Why You Bangin’ Justin Bobby?

    The Hills: Why You Bangin’ Justin Bobby?

    So, I was gone for a few weeks and missed out on a lot of Hills recapping. I was so excited to get back…
