MTV Orders Four More Seasons Of The Real World
March 31st, 2009 | 0 Comments | Email | ShareMTV has ordered four more seasons of its reality hit The Real World. The order will extend the 17-year-old docudrama from Bunim-Murray Productions to 26 seasons. MTV also is ordering another four seasons of Bunim-Murray’s The Real World/Road Rules Challenge, bringing the competition series to 21 seasons.
The current season of The Real World: Brooklyn will air its finale Wednesday, and producers are already shooting the next round, The Real World: Cancun.
Given MTV’s youthful target audience, the network must develop a constant stream of new, hip programing. But the “Real World” format keeps managing to hook new generations of viewers. Producers tweaked the format for the Brooklyn season by not giving the cast members jobs.
