PLEASE NOTE: The Reality TV World Message Boards are filled with desperate
attention-seekers pretending to be one big happy PG/PG13-rated family. Don't
be fooled. Trying to get everyone to agree with you is like herding cats,
but intolerance for other viewpoints is NOT welcome and respect for other
posters IS required at all times. Jump in and play, and you'll soon find out
how easy it is to fit in, but save your drama for your mama. All members are
encouraged to read the
complete guidelines.
As entertainment critic Roger
Ebert once said, "If you disagree with something I write, tell me so, argue
with me, correct me--but don't tell me to shut up. That's not the American way."

I think it would be hilarious to put them out on a ranch where they would have to drive an hour or so to just get groceries!

Austin will be a great place to have Real World. I am a 20-something Texan, and it is by far my favorite city in the state. As the article mentions, it is young and very hip. Embedded in the Bible-belt South, it sticks out like a sore thumb as a very liberal and unique city, encouraging individualism and lots and lots of partying! It is the home of Univeristy of Texas, so you can imagine the collegiate influence on this town.If you, who are not from Texas (or the South for that matter), think that all they will do is ride horses and listen to kenney Chesney while drinking Moonshine, you will be shockingly surprised by the Urban terrain of Austin. There is great architecture, high energy, posh shopping and dining, and Austin even has its own variation of Bourbon Street in Downtown called 6th Street. I guarentee you will see them on 6th Street at some point in the season! Overall, Austin (though grounded in Texas history as the capitol of the Lone Star State) really seems to have rebelled against the Texas Stereotype, and i think viewers will be pleasantly surprised. It may even make you want to visit if you never had the desire to come to Texas before! Dallas, while a very fascinating city, is a little too uptight and rooted in culture to host Real World. Don't get me wrong, there is plenty to do there, but it just doesn't have the personality that Austin has, and which will make it a great season.

I am also glad they have picked Austin as the next city for The Real World. I have always heard that Austin is an interesting and nice place, with lots of good restaurants and places to see live music. I just hope they do a better job of selecting the cast, and a better job of editing for this next season. The Philadelphia season (at least so far) pretty much stinks.

In the article I just read, Bond said "Originally they were looking at a lakefront situation, but how many episodes can you do on renting jet-skis?" In downtown Austin we have 'town lake', but then theres lake travis just a few miles away with the 'clothing optional beach'. Wonder what day they will go there as its mild weather here in february and march on most days. ........ like today...... for example lots of boaters out!

Oh nooooooo ..... not Leslie... lol.... you know every time he runs for mayor of Austin, everybody (especially the APD) fear he will actually win. And you know the 'Keep Austin Wierd' campaign prolley dont help that situation either lol... For everyone who doesnt know.... Leslie is Austin's downtown infamous 'drag queen'. For years he picketed a local major grocery store off of north lamar for not hiring him. He stood out there on most weekdays with his smiling bearded face prancing around in his skimpy polka dot bikini for all the traffic to see his signs on his little cart telling all how unfair etc... Now he mostly lurks on or near 6th street (corner of 6th & congress) lounging in his bikini top and thong, under an umbrella, verbally bashing Dewayne (street preacher) and being his unruly self. I'm sure when R/W Austin airs..... everyone will get an unforgettable moment with the infamous 'Leslie'.....

Austin?!?!!! No disrespect to any Texans, but what happened to Washington DC or Atlanta? Ratings will be good in Texas, but I predict ratings just like London or even Paris. Austin will be a big yawner. Wake me when it's over.

How the hell do you know the season will be a yawner based solely on the city? The people make the show not the city. IMHO. I could care less what city they are in, just put a few idiots together in a house and you have drama. Take this season for instance...the city has had nothing to do with the show.

From another board, here is what the house may look like.Here's what was said about it: Pretty much everyone is talking about how they will be living over on Baylor St. This is walking distance to the famous 6th Street. It's a street approximately 10 blocks long that shuts down anyone from driving every night of the week. You're looking at bars, nightclubs, titty bars, and tattoo parlors... Probably close to 75-100 establishments. The bars that are one-story have another bar on top. The two-story bars are ridiculous and are packed every night... Batts, anything to add?

I heard the reason they didn't choose places like Atlanta, or Washington D.C, were for security reasons. That after all the problems they encounter in Philly, which was supposed to be a "friendly" city, they decided not to do those cities at this time. Has anyone else heard the rumors that Real World and Road Rules are going to end? I heard Road Rules and Real World were going to stop when they got to Season 20, or sooner? I heard it was a ratings thing.

hi austinat, I was there too this evening, and walked around for about an hour. I talked to a lady who lived on the corner, and she said that the house with all the new chain link around it, and 'one' no admittance sign on the front of the chainlink has been under a million dollar refit for the last couple of years. I saw the humongous electrical grid thing you were talking about on the side of it. I dont know what that is........ but the lady I talked to spoke of the other parts of Baylor st (its split up 3 times)... I'm going back down there to visit the other parts of Baylor st. to see if maybe thats the 'back' of the house, as all the houses I saw were 1 story facing the street and multilevel to the back as it was on a Hill situation. I'm kinda like you austinat... just curious bout seeing the house and maybe catching some 'realworld' live action I promise I wont shine any flashlights in any windows or scare anyone with lurking lol

yea i heard its been under construction for a while..that's why i was skeptical. now ppl are saying they think its the austin theater on s. congress that has been closed. the one that used to be that controversial xxx theater a while back. someone called in on KISS FM and made it sound like they had inside info that that was it...doesnt sound like a bad idea seeing as its a "unique" one..an old porn theater..mtv would like that.

I checked that old theater out a week ago looking for possible real world housing and found it would be hard to ensure security around it. they are presently advertising something about 'cows on harleys' on the front of that old xxx theater. Its pretty far out there on south congress, and in awful iffy territory, and when I looked in the windows 4 days ago, it seemed lifeless inside. I just got back from the house mentioned above and it was dark but it looked as if maybe the picture above is the 'BACK' of that house. I will have to go there in the daytime to make sure, but the front of the house with the chainlink fence, no admittance and architech signs around it was PAINTED YELLOW in the front of the house. If it is that house, it is half a block from 6th st, 10 blocks to the nearest 'beer gut bar' on 6th St.(other side of the Driscoll) 14 blocks to the UT Tower, and about 20 blocks to the state capitol. They will be 4 blocks from the Rainbow Cattle Co (gay/lesbian bar) lol..... This is all IF that picture is the back of that house.... I'm like you...... I really dont KNOW yet... * omg Ive become a stalking monster somebody help meeee lol *

yaaa I just found out too Natalie.... from what I understand, some of the mtv crew are at the loft? Talk about misinformation from so many people, my head is spinning like 'shakes'. But thanks Natalie for trying, and also thanks for sharing with us here, and I will continue to lurk around that Baylor house. Did u see the little walking path to the rear that a lot of construction workers are using? If I find out anything Natalie..... you will be the first to know ok?

We have had people with names like 'Bobby Bone' and 'Buck Naked' in our media here! We are still trying to figure out what is 'real' and what is being fed as misinformation.... I still fantasize that the r/w house is the governors mansion, but I can also list a dozen reasons why it wont be, but it would be an absolutely PERFECT spot being only a block from 'Charlies' (gay bar) a block from the 'capitol complex', and a couple of blocks from 6th street, and a few blocks more blocks to the UT tower! ......now the house on Baylor Street is being watched once again.... I give up and wait till something is confirmed before I go out spinning my wheels again like I did this last 2 weeks Yesterday I went by the old controversial theater on S. Congress and noticed that there is a hammock on the top with someone swinging back and forth in it...... but it cant be that theater, too iffy a neighborhood......

Hi Rattler and alancer...... the house is at 302 San Jacinto, and all the current info is under the spoiler thread..... including some of the names of the peeps with pictures! If you wanna see any of the peeps then just go down 6th street almost ANY night and you can watch them (usually at Dizzy or Chuggin Monkey, or Spill) .....Just dont get in anybodys face with a camera, cause there has already been problems with face redecorations ..... oops (spoiler)
