This show is basically the same thing as Survivor, Big Brother, half a dozen other reality elimination shows.
Except its better because they bring the same people back for a lot of these, so over time you become familiar with back stories, rivalries, etc.
I mean, yeah, I get the whole it's on MTV so lets bash it. I probably would too. An exgf got me hooked on them around 2004 or so and I've been watching them ever since.
I can't.... I can't quit them.
