TV Junkie: Disbelief Over New Shows; 'Southland' Finale

090502-southland1.jpg
"Southland" season finale at 10pm on NBC
It's old news, but even though Kris Allen was the upset winner on "American Idol" last night, we think we'll be seeing a lot more of Adan Lambert than Allen in the future.
---
We still can't believe that "Frasier" is coming back on the air despite it being under another name.
---
We also can't believe that on June 24th MTV's "Real World" will return for it's 22nd season. Has anything remarkable happened in the last 17 seasons? Oh wait, this season is essentially an episode for Cancun.

Check out late night TV - a lot of stuff going on other than the shows we selected.

omg, the real world is still on?? i bet some of the people on it this time around weren't even ALIVE when the show started.

You'd be right, since I think the cut-off age is now 23.

But you have to give props to the original Gen X reality show. They may not be the best show to ever throw people in a house together... oh hell, yes it is!

In the first 8 seasons or so they didn't even have sex with each other, and it was still fairly interesting.

The Real World premiered in 1992, which means anyone over 17 years old was alive when it started.

come on Mexican gangsters, take some real world people hostage
