this is essentially what you'll get on a more recent season

Despite growing up in a small town, Dustin considers himself "a city boy at heart".[9] Characterized by what MTV describes as a "boyish charm and southern gentleman demeanor", Dustin grew up with a bi-polar, drug addicted mom and an abusive stepfather. Although he was constantly shuttled between parents, relatives and various friends' houses, he worked hard to maintain relationships with his family,[14] though his brother Quay visits in Episode 8.[15] He worries as to whether he will develop bipolar disorder, which his mother suffers from.[5] He attended Lamar University,[13] and once lived in the house featured on Frat Pad, a live webcam site in which he and other men engage in sexual activities with one another,[16][17] though he stresses that he is straight and did this purely for a living, and he hopes to put that past behind him.[9] He further explains that his mother's Pentecostal beliefs precluded him from playing sports, and that not wanting to work in oil fields or sell drugs, he chose that line of work because of limited options.[15][18] An avid fan of racing,[10] his friends see him as a highly competitive young man whose good looks help him socialize with women.[14][13] Although he initially expresses an aversion to romance with his housemates in the premiere, he later begins a romantic relationship with Heather in that same episode,[9][16] which later becomes sexual,[5] but when she and the rest of the cast learn he has concealed a past in gay porn, Heather breaks up with him, and the others feel betrayed.[15]

basically the real world's new method follows the basic method of modern reality shows, i.e. find the most damaged people you possibly can and stick them in a house together

death to ilx, long live the frogbs (strongo hulkington's ghost dad), Wednesday, 6 July 2011 20:26 (twelve years ago) link

based on this thread can i assume that there would be strong ilx support for the 'mtv news anchors past & present' poll i've been marinating on

Ayatollah Colm Meaney (Princess TamTam), Wednesday, 6 July 2011 20:26 (twelve years ago) link

horseshoe, Wednesday, 6 July 2011 20:28 (twelve years ago) link

During that interview and I remember being like wtf why is lou barlow on this episode of Sex in the 90s?! They never explained it and it's sort of perplexed me to this very day.

\(^o\) (/o^)/ (ENBB), Wednesday, 6 July 2011 20:28 (twelve years ago) link

philly was the last season i watched, which was a great year because it brought us Karamo - i tried to do my part at the time to popularize "no karamo" as a substitute for no homo but it never took off

Ayatollah Colm Meaney (Princess TamTam), Wednesday, 6 July 2011 20:28 (twelve years ago) link

this was like my version of tuomas's mystery movie

The episode was "Breaking Up" btw and he was discussing the end of a relationship with someone named Kathleen.

\(^o\) (/o^)/ (ENBB), Wednesday, 6 July 2011 20:29 (twelve years ago) link

sex in the 90s also gave us christine o'donnell of course, so take a penny/leave a penny

horseshoe yes he was being interviewed about his sex/love life

death to ilx, long live the frogbs (strongo hulkington's ghost dad), Wednesday, 6 July 2011 20:30 (twelve years ago) link

horseshoe, Wednesday, 6 July 2011 20:30 (twelve years ago) link

btw "kathleen" was really just code for "j. mascis"

death to ilx, long live the frogbs (strongo hulkington's ghost dad), Wednesday, 6 July 2011 20:30 (twelve years ago) link

ahahahaha

horseshoe, Wednesday, 6 July 2011 20:31 (twelve years ago) link

for some reason i think i knew of lou barlow as 'that guy' before i had ever heard his music and it really put me off wanting to hear it

goole, Wednesday, 6 July 2011 20:31 (twelve years ago) link

No HS Sex in the 90s was a series where each show had diff themes like "Breaking Up" or "I have HIV". The shows would consist of interviews/stories of like 5 or 6 people. Lou Barlow was one of the people profiled on the Breaking Up ep but they never mentioned that he was in a band. He was just some dude named Lou.

yeah you had to be "in the know," i.e. a fucking nerd

death to ilx, long live the frogbs (strongo hulkington's ghost dad), Wednesday, 6 July 2011 20:31 (twelve years ago) link

i remember sex in the 90s! it's just that lou barlow being on it without being lou barlow is so weird.

horseshoe, Wednesday, 6 July 2011 20:32 (twelve years ago) link

mtv used to be so good, man

horseshoe, Wednesday, 6 July 2011 20:32 (twelve years ago) link

"so listen, lou, settle a bet..."

death to ilx, long live the frogbs (strongo hulkington's ghost dad), Wednesday, 6 July 2011 20:33 (twelve years ago) link

...like i think i saw a photo of sebadoh in ALTERNATIVE PRESS and was like "oh, that's the guy from the sex show"

i know for a fact he used the phrase "it was a toy love"

xps

goole, Wednesday, 6 July 2011 20:33 (twelve years ago) link

IT WAS A TOY LOVE

horseshoe, Wednesday, 6 July 2011 20:33 (twelve years ago) link

this thread has made my day i love you guys

horseshoe, Wednesday, 6 July 2011 20:34 (twelve years ago) link

It was totally weird. I liked Sebadoh at that point and I remember being like WTF why is this happening and nobody is talking about the fact that that's him?! It has bothered me for a very long time. I am glad someone else has seen this. *daps Jess*

OMG GOOLE

is it just me or did the "twentysomethings" on mtv back in the day actually resemble real adults?

this may be a cultural problem, rather than mtv's

Oh btw the real sex "I have HIV" featured a blonde straight girl who got HIV from her live in boyfriend and I made me so paranoid that I didn't have sex for years and when I finally did I was totally convinced I was going to get AIDS and die immediately.

\(^o\) (/o^)/ (ENBB), Wednesday, 6 July 2011 20:35 (twelve years ago) link

like i remember watching these shows and being like "oh, it's a bunch of people in their 20s livin their lives in the real world, that looks pretty cool and i can't wait to get there" and now everyone between the ages of 20 to 29 on mtv looks like a disgusting overgrown high school junior with a buy-ten-and-the-next-one's-free card at a tanning salon

death to ilx, long live the frogbs (strongo hulkington's ghost dad), Wednesday, 6 July 2011 20:36 (twelve years ago) link

is it just me or did the "twentysomethings" on mtv back in the day actually resemble real adults?

part of it is that they were our age or older when the show started, and now they are all much much younger than us

death to ilx, long live the frogbs (strongo hulkington's ghost dad), Wednesday, 6 July 2011 20:36 (twelve years ago) link

i think that's about how we used to be teenagers and aspired to be twentysomethings and then we got old and the reality left something to be desired
