The Real World: Seattle
23 episodes · first aired Jun 16, 1998
Set on Pier 70 with a stunning view of Seattle's Elliott Bay, this Real World features--for the first time--cast members who knew each other before arriving at the house. To give the show a new music twist, the seven strangers work as "modulators" at alterna-rock radio station, 107.7 The End. What begins as a series of promotional duties eventually leads to producing and hosting a live radio show. The gang has to deal with major issues ranging from the perils of long-distance relationships to suicide. Later in the season, the cast members travel to Nepal in support of their various radio station duties. And who can forget Stephen's goodbye slap for Irene?
