A play set in Afghanistan should be more nuanced and intellectually stimulating than this one is.
It was 20 years ago today the The Real World first aired, and it was only a few years ago that D.C. has the displeasure of hosting MTV’s seminal reality show.
We’ve been through 14 episodes of house drama, personal crisis and growth, multiple dinners at Buca di Beppo, one visit to the ER, and enough Wicked Liquid to scar a lifetime of memories. And it all happened within a four-block radius of the now infamous Dupont Circle townhouse, spare the stray trip to one or two other spots in our fair city. I couldn’t be happier it’s over. No, really — I’m spent. It’s…
Well, we’re down to seven roommates and just one episode. It’s been a wild ride, and if you need to catch up before it’s all over, check out our detailed re-caps to date. Below the jump, we meet Mike’s boyfriend, Ty gets a little frisky with an older woman and the roommates are overcome with a sense that maybe they should do something of value before the season’s over….
We Were Pirates – The Making of “Settle Down” from We Were Pirates on Vimeo. Let’s be honest — there’s not much that’s authentically “D.C.” about The Real World D.C. Sure, the show takes place here, but as our painfully detailed re-caps have shown, the roommates have mostly been tethered to their Dupont Circle home and a rather limited sampling of nearby bars and restaurants. But at least one song played in the background of…

I know, I know — we missed last week’s episode of The Real World D(upont) C(ircle). But to make it up to fans of the show and the faithful readers of our re-caps (all 17 of you), this week’s installment covers not one, but two episodes. Yes, friends, I ran a reality show marathon last night, and as a consequence today I’m dehydrated, cranky and chafing. (If you want an Ironman experience, read all…
In the grand scheme of The Real World D(upont) C(ircle), this week may have marked something of a new low. I know, I know — it’s hard to believe. But it’s true. If you need to catch up, our past recaps are here. If not, don’t say I didn’t warn you about what’s coming. Our patented bullet points are below the jump….
There’s really only one thing you need to know about this week’s installment of The Real World D(upont) C(ircle) — Wicked Liquid. For everything else, see below; the rest of our coverage can be found here….
After being holed up in my basement apartment for five days, even the newest installment of The Real World D(upont) C(ircle) seemed like an exciting break from growing cabin fever. Unfortunately, what promised to be the most riveting inter-personal drama of the series ended up being nothing more than a tease. And yes, my growing fear of Ashley’s tantrums made it hard to sleep. If you need to catch up on everything you’ve missed…
