We’re only in week three of the season, and it is already painfully obvious this season is all about the hook up. Yes, most seasons are about the hook up, but this season has even more about it than any other season in the past. I think it is going to give the Vegas set Real World a run for its money when it comes to roommates hooking up and having sex.
This week revolved around crushes. Melinda and Danny are already together. So now it comes turn for the rest of the cast. Rachel likes Wes, but Wes wants nothing of it. Instead, he has his eye set on Johanna, and during a drunken night out, he confesses his feelings to her. She doesn’t reciprocate because she knows that Rachel has a thing for him, and she doesn’t want to do that to her new friend. Wes is a bit hurt, but he still doesn’t have any feelings for Rachel. He discusses what happened with the others in the house, and it’ll be interesting to see what happens next week, especially from what I saw in the previews for next week’s show.
A good part of the episode focused on Danny and the injury he received back on the first episode of the show. This week comes the surgery, which Danny’s father makes a special trip down to Austin for. As we listen in on what the doctor’s tell Danny’s dad about his injury and his surgery, we learn that this is more serious than was let on to be. If not treated, the injury could have caused Danny problems for the rest of his life.
Melinda stays at Danny’s side as much as she can, and his father is also quite supportive of his son during this difficult time. Danny had expressed some concern about his family looking at him differently if something went wrong during the surgery. From what I can tell, the surgery looks to have gone fine, but we will have to wait for next week to see what happens.

Yep, it's a hook up frat fest of epic proportions this season.
And, I must admit, I'm freaking glued to the thing every Tuesday night.
I see:
- Wes and Johanna hook up and are happy until... she kicks his ass in a drunken rampage
- Danny and Melinda... wedding bells? Those kids sure are smitten with one another...
Nice job, Regina!

I'm glued to my set every week myself. I'm not so sure about Danny and Melinda after the previews for tonight's episode. I guess we'll just have to wait and see.
Thank you!

I thnk if Melinda and Danny keep acting like they r n they keep showing each other their feelings for each other then i think its a relationship that will last. they look amazingly cute together n its not hard to tell their already deeply in love.

I haven't been this into the Real World since the Las Vegas cast. I look forward to Tuesdays, and am always anxious to see what happens. I think Danny and Melinda belong together. From the first time they met, you could see the connection between them. I'm interested to see their after show interviews to hear what's going on with them. Judging by pictures I've seen, I think they may still be a couple even after the show is done airing.

Man ive never watched the real world in my life until this one. Melinda is so fine and her tits are so nice. The things i would eat out her ass. With Danny gettin coleclocked in the 2 episode, and Melindas skimpy outfits, this has been a really good show and i will continue to watch
