MTV HEADS TO BROOKLYN, NEW YORK AS "THE REAL WORLD" BEGINS PRODUCTION ON SEASON 21

Santa Monica, CA, May 13, 2008 - Riding high on the successful launch of an accelerated, action packed 13-week episode cycle with more favorite Real World drama packed into 1-hour episodes, MTV has greenlit the hit reality series for a 21st season. Production will move from the west coast to the east coast as Bunim-Murray Productions begins shooting in Brooklyn, NY this summer. Continuing with the new format of expanding the episodes to one-hour, the network has ordered 12 episodes of "The Real World: Brooklyn" which is scheduled to premiere in Q1 2009.

Hmmm... I guess I'm too old to be "real" at this point. I always thought I'd play a decent "Puck" though.
