road RULES

road rules finally comes back on January 30th, 2007. The last new episode aired over two years ago (September 27, 2004), so i'd like to place my vote that "it's about time, yo." additionally, there are a few new twists that might possibly make this best season of road rules, um, everrrrr.

MTVs audience will be in complete control of the game for the first time ever. With a real-time shoot schedule, viewers take the wheel this season as they call the shots on: 1) who from the RV ends up in the MTV Online elimination round, and 2) who from the roster of replacements on MTV.com competes against that Road Ruler for their spot. The new season kicks off with a Road Rules 2007: Viewers Revenge Launch Special on Tuesday, January 23rd at 10:00pm ET/PT. Road Rules will join MTVs explosive Tuesday night block including Bams Unholy Union at 9:30pm ET/PT, Two-A-Days at 10pm ET/PT, and Wrestling Society X at 10:30pm ET/PT.

real-time shoot schedule? hallelujah. i love that the viewers not ONLY get to select who goes in, but also selects someone from mtv.com to compete with them. sounds like it's gonna get crazizzle up in the RizzleVizzle.

here's a quick look at the initial cast:

abram
road rules south seas and a few real world/road rules challenges.
abram is pretty the original gangsta when it comes to corn fed blond boys with anger management issues and a way with the ladies. wes is desperately trying to follow in abram's footsteps on the current rw/rr challenge, but, alas, no one does abram better than abram.

no one.

adam
road rules 10: the quest
i like adam. he's got a nice diposition and a healthy dose of charm. he can also kick some pretty good ass, so that's always a plus plus.

shane
road rules campus crawl & many rw/rr challenges
athletic and sweet. shane is pretty awesome. i like him. i don't really know what else to say.

kina
road rules Xtreme & rw/rr challenges
i'm pretty sure kina has some severe mental issues that she should be seeking help for, but then some days kina is completely normal and i'm all "whatever" about her. she is a fierce and obnoxious competitor and wants to control you. and you .. and especially you. really bad. mostly, she bothers me. i'm voting her ass into the challenge: pronto.

susie
road rules australia
super cute, but kind of naive, still. i want to say she's been on a few challenges, but i can't for the life of me remember how she fared. not super memorable.

veronica

road rules semester at sea; numerous challenges

veronica is kind of a trashy whore but is super good at challenges for some odd reason. it's always sad when she leaves a show because she usually guarantees ridiculous drama. she should call herself veronicadrama. i know, that's super original. much like her juvenile attempts at stirring the pot.

so there it is. good times ahead.
