Being accused of “making inappropriate and sexual comments” towards a subject of his docu-series Catfish was “so stressful” for MTV star Nev Schulman that he came down with shingles.
At the clusterfuck that was the VMAs last night, the stars of The Hills (a relic from an era in which teenagers actually still watched MTV) descended onto the red carpet and my nose was smelling a REBOOT. And sure enough a teaser aired later in the evening confirmed that the The Hills is indeed coming back to the…
As is usually the case with television shows I love, the gospel of Floribama Shore was preached to me long before I ever considered actually watching it. For nearly a year, friends like Jezebel’s Clover Hope and Megan Reynolds tried to convince me that MTV’s reality series about early twenty-something Southerners who…
Max Joseph, one-half of MTV’s Catfish, is leaving the show after seven seasons to pursue artistic endeavors outside of humiliating lonely people on reality TV.
Woah, as someone who hasn’t watched Jersey Shore since high school I am probably the wrong person to react to this publicly but I was very caught-off-guard by the uncanny effect wrought by the cast acting exactly the same but looking a good decade older. This is the Jersey Shore I know and love. But I’ll try to get…
Jennifer Lopez has been announced as the recipient of this year’s Michael Jackson Video Vanguard Award at the MTV Video Music Awards, which is a real triumph for beautiful women with thin voices dancing well under green lasers and on stoops.
MTV International is preparing a reality TV show called The Royal World, based on the comings and goings of random lesser aristocrats from around the world, which sounds like a delightful and highly entertaining mess.
Lindsay Lohan might have joined the MTV family, but she’s still Lindsay Lohan. We know this because that’s exactly what she tells us in the teaser for her upcoming MTV reality show, per People.
MTV has announced a bunch of new shows that are mostly not new but still definitely shows.
A rather shady post at The Hollywood Reporter alerts us to the reboot of Aeon Flux, an MTV cartoon from the mid-’90s about a sinewy hacker with a housefly that lived in her eyelashes (and some other stuff). I characterize this otherwise unremarkable news item as shady because in conveying its message to the world, it…
It’s 2018 and you can watch millions of strangers argue with each other on camera the minute you open your iPhone. And yet MTV wants to bring back The Real World. Again.
After many long months of teasing the series (and even announcing its renewal for a second season), MTV has finally released a trailer for its upcoming Jersey Shore reboot, Family Vacation. Based on the 98-second clip, it’s going to be a lot like the original Jersey Shore, only this time they’re in Miami, everyone’s…
Reinventing the dating show so that it hits the right notes of watchable, messy, and entertaining TV is a big ask. Yet many networks try anyway. This time, it’s MTV.
MTV’s second attempt at reanimating the corpse of TRL has failed.
On Tuesday night’s episode of The Challenge, MTV issued a PSA about the dangers of bullying after a group of contestants—designated “mean girls”—rallied against another.
“This’ll be fun, we can talk a lot of smack,” SallyAnn Salsano, self-identified Guidette said at the start of our rollicking conversation about her reality show empire that includes Jersey Shore and the forthcoming and insanely entertaining (sorry!) Winter Break: Hunter Mountain. I am happy to report that she was…
Something truly disgusting about me is how much I love the first two seasons of Jersey Shore. The later ones, with their inexplicable focus on Ronnay/Sammay’s relationship (not to mention that disastrous trip to Italy that somehow didn’t prompt the country to ban all visitors from the United States) lost some of the…
Something tells me that the specific magic that happens when you throw a bunch of young adults in a beach house for a summer and film their shenanigans won’t quite translate to the colder months, but I’m still game to give it a go!
Minor reality TV celebrity beef alert: the cast of Jersey Shore is apparently NOT very happy with MTV’s attempt at reinvigorating their precious franchise and they’re not gonna take it!!
