That Sinking Feeling Down Under
The Atlanta Journal-Constitution
Everyone holding their breath till they turn blue to try and convince MTV to make “The Real World: Snellville” can exhale now. The Network Formerly Known For Showing Music Videos announced Tuesday that it’s taking its act Down Under.
Production will begin soon in Australia on “The Real World: Sydney,” with plans for the 24-episode extravaganza to air sometime next fall. (Although given how the seasons are all upside-down down there, maybe it’ll actually be spring. Who knows? I’m not even sure what side of the road they drive on in Australia).
There was no word on whether the cast will be American, Australian, a mixture of the two or perhaps All-Kangaroo. What we do know is that this country bows to no one in its ability to churn out brave young people who are willing to share a house with complete strangers, drink too much and frolic naked in hot tubs for TV cameras. We’re the Real World Power and no one should ever forget that!)
(Oh, and Australia? Sorry about this, mate. “The Real World” is one of those things that should only be inflicted on our worst enemies.)
