Is this currently shooting or is the casting still forming? It would be interesting to see if the douchebag ratio is doubled if they promising Real Worlders were informed of the locale before they went past stage one in the casting process?
Also, am I a douche because I wouldn't mind getting to take a videotaped vacay for a few months, with the hopes of employment upon return in this economic climate?
Cancun is incredilame. There's still so many cities they can explore: Vancouver, Dallas, Cleveland, Montreal, Rome, Cape Town or maybe even Detroit where their jobs consist of begging for government money.
Cancún is an ancient village situated on the coast of Mexico's Yucatán Peninsula.
Haha, yes, ancient. The land was settled by the conquistadores of Banco de Mexico in the early 1970s in a blatant attempt to build a giant tourist trap.
If they're trying to push the boozy envelope, why don't they do a season in a cold, northern climate, like RW Revkjavik? Or Talinn? Or the obvious: Prague?
I'm looking forward to this. The whole Mexico becoming a failed state, out of control narco wars will make for an interesting angle. They should have gone with Real World: Juarez. Now that I'd watch every night.
@somedayarealrainwillcome: How about Real World: Chiapas? The girls will be sorely disappointed when they find out Zapatistas is not a discount shoe store.
I live fairly close to Tijuana, so the fact that Mexico's cities are pretty much falling apart at the seams is near and dear to my heart. But MTV exploring the real Mexico? Unlikely at best.
@contradicto: You don't think one of them will be prompted to climb one of those ancient stair-step pyramids and sit atop of it and ponder the plight of the Aztecs while emo music plays in the background?
@lobstr: Naw, but i bet two of them try to get it on up on one of the altars. You know, just to give lefty intellectuals a frisson of dread about desecrating native cultures or something.
Maybe it will be like that book, The Ruins, and they will all be let to a flowery hill, and die there, because of the talking plants? I mean, I don't WANT THEM TO DIE THERE, I'm just saying. Maybe it'll be like that.

If you poke them too hard they break open and a red syrup comes out... or was that Stretch Armstrong?

I'm waiting for them to get to Real World: LXXXIV: Schnectady.
