Addictive Show

Like most MTV shows (The Real World, Daria, Undressed) this show was pure fun and addictive. Though, this show was part soap opera part the aforementioned Undressed. It's trashy, wicked fun. I thought it was practically delicious! LOL. The cast seemed too perform well, despite most of it's overwrought plots.
