They could be filming Breanna as a warning to the girls. Maybe her segments won't make the final, but they all know she's filming so they tone down on their "I'm not filming today!" tantrums.

Oh please let this be the case!  Please.

From your typing fingers to God's eyes, please let this happen! lol

I am thinking of the days when actors would go on strike and refuse to work. Anyone remember when Suzanne Somers (Three's Company) took a stance about the wages she and her co-stars were earning compared to Larry Hagman (Dallas)? Suzanne eventually lost her job after being forced to fulfill her contract for the remainder of her season. My point is, these girls don't have a union. They are not SAG members. They are not working in unison like a regular cast on a tv drama or sitcom. Just like Real World brought in a new cast each season, MTV may be wanting to change things up. The show is nothing but Chelsea filming less and less, Jenelle being a monster on the show, Amber being a couch potato with nothing else going on,  Leah pretending to go to school for a storyline, and Kail being demanding and difficult.

Don't forget, MTV is bringing back 16 & Pregnant. They are changing it up with older girls. MTV will have a new herd of girls to pick and choose from. They can revamp the show by bringing in new girls who will work for less money.

Teen Mom UK has girls of different ages as well as their babies being various ages.  I don't know if I just enjoyed seeing the difference in cultures, or if the mix of ages was fun too (or mostly the couple living in a camper!). Either way, I enjoyed it. I thought that was the casting call that went out - a new Teen Mom, not 16&P. I don't even remember this new chick, so that can't be a good sign. And I'm addicted to this mess. 

I guess the original casts must have been lightening in a bottle (probably the only time any of them will ever hear that). I still watch. I mostly snark watch, but I'm right there. I always wanted Whitney Purvis to be put on. She and her mother were pregnant together, and I guess there's been plenty of legal trouble. But way back when I thought she was sweet and sad. Or how about that couple that had the kid taken away because of filthy living conditions? Season 1, I think they were Air Force.

I agree because no way would Maci hang out w the likes of Amber and Catelynn.  Maci gives me very mean girl vibes and those two would certainly be the target of Maci and her normal circle of friends. 

Maci and Caftan Cate on vacation? Only on MTV's dime.

Agree. Maci wouldn't bother with either one of those slimeballs. Maci is just being nice and cordial. She just liked how they went after Farrah after she made such a big shit about her. Sure they showed up for each other's weddings, but that doesn't mean squat. Maci has no interest in the Bacterias or their lifestyle. She is surely snarking on both of them to her friends when they get together and get drunk on Bud Light.

Cate's only friend is her couch. It doesn't talk back to her. It doesn't tell her she eats too much.

The talent might be SAG-AFTRA at this point in their careers.  Jennifer Lawrence was able to join the union by filming a My Super Sweet 16 commercial for MTV.  If anyone is union, it would be Farrah because she has the most credits.  Catelynn and Tyler did that 'Mission: Impossible' commercial/spoof for MTV, so that would be a legit project to earn the card.  Most reality stars are not unionized, but their shows do not have the longevity as the TM franchise.  For the Reunion specials, they are all being accommodated like union members.

This may be true.

Any idea why they stopped filming in New York and took the reunion tapings to Los Angeles?

I think because of New York's intern/labor/child laws -- just a hunch.  California follows Coogan Laws like NY, but California now has loose intern/unpaid laws compared to NY (recent law changes).  The folks getting Nathan his coffee aren't paid but in NY they would need to be paid if certain educational requirements aren't met.  Hard to tie Uncle Bad Touch's tantrum into an educational plan.

I remember digging and posting here a few weeks back about the Coogan Law and how the laws, if any, apply to reality shows. It is so confusing trying to figure out what applies. Is this why there are constant references to the teen pregnancy rates and the show itself having Drew mention teen pregnancy rates because TM is trying to fall into one of those educational requirements?

I don't see how Maci is any better than Cate or (less so) Amber. Maci hasn't done any more to get an education/career than Cate has and I'd say Cate's relationship/reproduction record is better. Cate did/does smoke pot, but Maci drinks a lot (and maybe does other drugs). I think Maci gets a lot of credit for being from a higher socioeconomic status than some of the other girls, which is nothing she earned, and, perhaps, from the (deceptive) image she promotes as a "good girl." IMO, she is just as trashy as any other TM girls and has engaged in partying, being an irresponsible parent, hooking up with randoms, famewhoring, etc. on the same general level as anyone else.

You must have missed the previous discussions we had about Maci around these parts. : ) Most of us have concluded Maci is trash and is very much a mean girl who hides behind the idea that she is somehow the sweetheart of the show. I just don't reiterate it each time I comment on her.

Maci believes she is better and above the others because she hasn't done porn, she hasn't been in jail, she has morals and character that separate her from the other girls which is bullshit. It is because of that attitude I believe she is only being cordial to her co-workers like some people are cordial to their co-workers, but once they are away from them, they will talk shit about them.

I would LOVE an update on Whitney! I think her son has some medical issue and i did read a story a few years back about her stealing a pregnancy test from a convenience store or something. I forgot the name of the other girl but I know who you are referring to.

Bolding is mine.

No credit from me. Far from it. Her background has no bearing on how I view her. She is a judgmental twat. If anything, her background and family life does not change the fact she is a lush who loves to party who was on a journey to find a guy to trap into marrying her since Ryan didn't want her. Maci is not well-liked and she gets heavily scrutinized. It is well-deserved criticism.

I just turned this on this evening and my husband walked into the room.  He looked at the tv and said, "She looks like a dirty hooker."  Leah was on the screen.  Then they panned to Kail.  "Damn, she looks psycho. Like she's full of rrrrage!  Like she'd bite your nipples off in bed or something."  

He's such an eloquent wordsmith at times.  ?
