Earlier this year, “Real World Ex: Plosion” (the cast members of which are featured in the photo above) dropped a bomb that left San Francisco in shambles. But the series’ upcoming 30th season, which will return to the Windy City for the first time since 2001, is about to blow open many a closet door in the Midwest.
On “Real World: Skeletons,” seven strangers will move in together as per the show’s typical formula, but soon, shared chores and shower schedules will prove to be the least of their worries as a brand-new twist comes into play: They’ll each be forced to confront the last person on Earth (or sometimes, the last people) they want to see.
On a rotating basis, “skeletons” will become temporary tenants of the house — aka a converted Chicago nightclub — to address its residents’ past issues. One woman will reveal she’s been impregnated by a cast member and will soon give birth, a former cyber bully will come face to face with those she’s virtually tortured and a son will meet — and proceed to live with — the father he’s only ever heard about. Throw in a family feud, a story of in-office drama and a case of scorned hookups who’ve got a single proud player in common, and we’ve got a show on our hands! Who’s bringing the popcorn?
“No one wants their worst enemy or embarrassing past moving in with them, but by facing your past you actually grow. And that growth, however painful it may be, is what makes this season of ‘Real World’ so watchable,” “Real World” creator and executive producer Jon Murray said of the new season in a press release.
