The Hills Reach A Record High
Is this surprising news??????
The ratings are in and…..
The season premiers of The Hills was the highest rated telecast for cable all year long so far!
It was also the highest rated episode ever of The Hills.
It even beat out broadcast television channels with the highest ratings for the night!
The premiere averaged over 4.7 million viewers.
WTF?!?!
Are all these people seriously watching the show?
Or did everyone just leave the house with MTV playing on their TV.
After the premiere, the performance by Mariah Carey resulted in an over 180% increase from the regular ratings in that normal time slot.
Even MTV online received record highs, with an increase of 29% of people going online to stream the episode. MTV.com delivered a staggering 2.2 million streams.
Do people actually watch the show because they think it's real or why?
Let us know please!
Why did U watch The Hills?
Fill In The Blank
A New Bitch In Town
I watched it because its good. Drama in there life is better then in mine.
Plus the guys are pretty hott.
Okay. Here is the straight up deal.
I watch the Hills. But Lauren is the WORST actress in the entire world, and she is so awkward it's funny. She thinks she's so cool at certain points, and you just havvvve to laugh.
i left it on and forgot to watch it…
its my guilty pleasure.
i dont know, the overdramaticness of it is rly entertaining.
Because it's not my life. I can laugh at the silly little girls while I juggle two kids on a budget. They have no idea what is in store for them. Takes my mind off of lunch money, mortages, and car payments.
I tuned in at 11pm just to see Mariah and had to suffer through about 5 minutes of the show before Mariah was on. Can't believe so many people seem to like the show.
Full of drama even if it is staged..and people, in one way or another relate to some of it!
bc it's funniee!!! tehe
so this is what we have come to in our society?
I get sucked into shows easily, but this? Hell no! Pure crap.
Ummm perez… remember life before reality tv? Who cares if the hills is real. it can be a good show even if its not a reality show. duh.
ugh, i was disappointed. It was pretty much just playing on our tv while we were in the other room
Why do you write about it and hype it up Perez!! This is exactly why people care…it's the hype.
You don't watch primetime dramas because they're real. We know Grey's Anatomy, Lost, 24, etc., aren't real, but we still watch them. Although The Hills is based on the idea of a reality show, we pretty much accept that it isn't. But you can't deny that it has some entertainment value. Even at that, it appears more realistic than primetime shows.
the hills is the best show ever…fake or not.
p.s. heidi's plastic surgery is nauseating..
I Watch It Cus Its Funny & All The Drama … Even If It Is Fake
i dont believe it is real i just love shows with that much drama. i turned the t.v. off just before mariah carrey came on. i dislike her very much. shes old new for me. i notice hiedi got botox or whatever, but i thinks its a bad job she looks too fake now. i use to think she was pretty but now, not so much.
What the hell was going on with heidis lips??!!!????!!!
i dig it
Yeah… un the Hills is toatally effing fake.. but its like waht else is there on television these days… every show is scripted aka psuedo reality.. its an escape and a fantasy.. LC and co are truly boring, talentless, mindless, lacking in most every area.. but i still watch… i know-we alll do- its like we think or want waht they portray… that is why they are so sucessful if u really think about it- honestly… truth be told theres nothing else as remotley falsey entertaining on tv these days……
the hills is hysterical! the faces that whitney and lauren make are so funny…i know its fake and its all scripted but still some of the comments make me and my friends die laughing
a.) i wanna live in la
b.) i wanna plow all of those chicks
To take Good Picture for marc jacobs!:O
I USED TO BE A BIG HILLS LOVER BUT ON PURPOSE I HAVENT TUNED IN THIS SEASON AND IM BOYCOTTING THE SHOW AND ITS FAKENESS!!! COME ON NOW THE DRAMA IS NOT EVEN THAT GREAT PEOPLE YOU WANT SOME REAL RICH PEOPLE DRAMA WATCH GOSSIP GIRL! LOL im with you perez so surprised so many people have tuned in especially when everyone should know by now the show is fake.
cause its awesome- i used to watch laguna and really liked it - when i first started the show it reminded me of the devil wears prada a bit- just with lauren getting ready for the interview & everything
on a side note just watching spencer with heidis parents is like WTF??????? is he for real??? like when he said "lauren wants heidi to herself!!" what a write off!!
holy shit.
what has America been reduced to. watching some gay ass spoiled bitches with all of the fake ass drama.
i hate the show so much, it makes me wanna puke when i see all of you idiots that actually waste an hour watching this shit.
seriously
It's a silly show, but I love the drama and we wish we could live a life like Lauren's!
the hills is one of the worst shows on tv…it is thoughtless and brainless television and anyone who watches it is the same. i don't know of anyone who respects themselves that would watch such inane crap!
perez think about it? why do YOU POST about the hills time and time again? there is your answer!
duh.
i love the hills and it is all real.
i watch the show cause it is entertining. i've come to terms with the fact that its not real; but really who cares? its just another scripted show, just like the other billion out there. why are we all hateing on this one? some of the things that are on the show are real things that happen to real people; not nececarily them but still people, and it is cool to watch people get through them; real or not.
Who cares that it's fake? The drama is awesome — I love it! Plus I love the Spencer and Heidi FIGHTING
He sucks
b/c of the fake drama
I was cleaning the house and MTV had a marathon on - I wouldn't have even watched it, had it not been for all of the media coverage of the "stars" on here! It's all your fault! lol Anyhoo - for the records, from what I have seen, I'm TEAM LAUREN!
because there is NOTHING ELSE ON T.V TO WATCH because of the writer's strike….
Can't you just stop being so bitter with the hills perez? It's entertaining some of our less than dramaless lives.
Believe it or not- I really like the show. Some say its not really reality, but "all" reality shows have some degree of scripting. One thing they all are and thats tv entertainment- love it or leave it.
I have watch how stupid Spencer and Heidi are….how can anyone be as clueless as her ? Seriously !
Lauren and Whitney are great !
i love the hills
couldnt careless if it is fake, its good entertainment
:)
i watch all the episodes online
I tried to stomach watching The Hills ONE time, and it was the worst "reality" show I've ever seen! The only reason it got high ratings is because of the NUDE PICTURES that surfaced of Audrina last week!
because its a fucking sexy show.
eeeew no i would not watch those stupid girls ever
Who cares if it's fake…isn't everything LA? This show is the funniest "reality" show I have ever seen! East coast in the house, my friends and I are hooked. Love it, love it!
I think it's cause a lot of people that started watching Laguna Beach in their teens are now watching The Hillss cause there's not a lot going on in that time slot. Plus it gets hyped sooooo much for weeks before it's happening, everyone wants to know what happened.
It's fake????? rlly????
yes i do i love it!
lauren is my favorite person
but i heard in real life kristin is nice and lauren is a bitch but idk
i still love lauren shes adorable
It's just like any other soap. I really don't care if it is reality or scripted or whatever. It's just fun to watch someone else's drama.
Perez
I think the reason people watch it is because its a fantasy. The fact that its not real is what makes it alluring. What attracts viewers are: the designer clothes, amazing job, gorgeous people, fabulous home, exclusive clubs etc. No one's life is the way its portrayed in the Hills (even the people in the hills like Lauren they have to make shit up). If everything was the way it was in real life no one would watch TV. Remember TV is an escape from reality.
i freaking love the hills! team lauren
FAT AND PATHETIC PEREZ… ITS OBVIOUSLY BECUASE OF ALL THE MARIAH FANS WHO TUNED IN TO WATCH MARIAHS PERFORMANCE!!! DAMN… YOU KNOW THIS.. GIVE HER THE CREDIT FAT AZZ
because they played Yelle. lol
it's getting a bit redundant. i didnt watch this seasons opener and dont plan on ever watching it again unless the only other thing on is flavor of love 3. i think that says a lot.
cuz its the BESTTTTTTTTTT SHOW EVERRRRRRRRRRRRRR
I dont really watch it really.. I just waited for Mariah to sing her songs
we all know it's not "real", but it's entertaining to watch all the cat fights and dramaz go down
Because i like it and i don't care if it's real or fake, i like it!!
I watch it because i love it and i have always watched it and i dont care if its real or not i love it besides if it was totally fake spencer and heidi would have broken up like years ago because everyone HATES them Duh!!!
the funny thing is THEY LIVE IN PARK LA BREA!!!!! which isnt even close to the Hollywood Hills!!! LOL all the LA people know this!!!!!
i dont watch the hills.
im suprized people still do.
I mean we all know its fake, but its entertaining. Why do you watch it Perez?
awesome show… get over it perez!! people love drama fake or real!
JUST TO SEE MARIAH PERFORM HER SONGS
The Hills is the dumbest show ever and that makes it like the best entertainment! The way every scene is awkward and the way the voice overs DON'T match is hilarious. It's more of a comedy. Like do you really think that Heidi's parents would really act calm and cool when their precious fake tan snow bunny is fighting with her homo bf in their living room?! I guess the apple doesnt fall too far from the tree when it comes to acting. o Ya, and i love how after every episode i dislike someone different. I actually feel bad for Spencer now. heidi is a bith and she's lucky to have any man..
i didn't watch it & no one i know watched it. it's about as horrid as scripted tv can get.
i dont watch the hills cuz its about stupid, self-absorbed girls who do nothing but gossip and backstab one another, and who should really grow up by now….
and, oh jee, what a big surprise that all that drama is also available at your highschool!
the hills is a waste of time and just goes to show how people can be so dumb, and how people have nothing else better to do than sit and watch other people's lives.
That's because you dumb fuckers don't have life…
I watch!! I love it!! Doesnt matter if its fake its addictive and compelling!!! LOVEEEE ITTT!!!
I am much older than these girls but I love the drama it's just as good as any soap opera.
I would love to see Heidi dump bitch boy. How the tables have turned.
Lauren needs a good you know what with someone deserving.
I'm real bored with Miss Nice the other chick that worked with Lauren.
I can't wait until next week.
its bad but Im fuckin addicted to it!
People watch the hills because it is a fantasy. Everyone would like to go to Paris and meet interesting people. Everyone wants to live in LA and hang with the "cool" people. And it is this generations sex and the city!
Re: Ashlo see eye – Re: ana –
Sad but that's the same for me!
perez why do you care if people watch the hills??? why must you make a big fuckin deal about it.
this show is THE fakest show EVER! And it's STILL not good. How is it possible that ANYone watches it??? I don't understand…and I LIKE "reality" shows!
i watched the hills premiere because there was nothing on. i have never watched the hills before untill now and i gotta say its some stupid ass shit i never want to watch it again.
team who cares about this soap opera!!!!!
Can we all say Brody is a dumb ass! Lauren needs to stop talking so much and get on the good guy program! She can't be that stupid! I only watch her show to justify that she is as smart as I think she can be! I have problems!
I only watch it to see Whitney, shes so awsome and pretty damn genuine. The girl is gorgeous and shes got style! LC is a little beat, Audrina is a horse, and Heidi is a beat horsey fake bitch.
I don't watch it for the reality factor- I watch it because its FUN! Take the show for what it is- Entertainment! Luvs it!! !!!!
Because its absolutely amazing, and awesome, thats why!!!!!!!!
I love Lo.
You have to keep in mind that there really hasn't been any new episodes of our reg favs, ex: mc dreamy\mc steamy. I just rather watch Jon&Kate +8..
it's not the show, it's the soundtrack!!!
We all know it's fake, but they live a dream life, a fake dream life we all wish was ours.
What do you mean "WTF?!?!?!?!" You post DAILY about THE HILLS. Perez…what is wrong with you?
because we wish we were them duuhhh!!
I watched the Hills and I was thinking the whole time… this show is so fake. They like fake awkwardness during certain moments. I dunno… I guess it's just a guilty pleasure.
I Love It!! Thats why! Come on Perez, they come to your party and you do not support them?? Shizzz…
Hey, Lauren says its real, so I believe her.
If everyone already thinks its fake, then why not come out and say it?
They would've still gottten ratings.
But I think it's real.
And you make the word "year" sound so long.
Its only March lol, so it really means three months, not literally a year.
High School Musical I think had 19 million viewers, and I think that was TV history.
I'm gonna guess it's the titties.
BECAUSE IT'S FUCKING HILARIOUS
haha it was an excuse to have wine with the girls
Because there was absoulty nothing else on.
real or fake, the drama is still ridiculous and funny.
i watch the hills cuz i enjoy other ppl's drama its entertaining and totally fake but who doesnt want to watch someone else mess up a gown or fall in love its just a weekly pick me up lol
Of course we watch!! It is amazing!
i've always known it's fake and i never cared. love the drama and the shallowness. makes me feel good about myself like i'm some sort of mother theresa in comparison. not gonna lie though, i didn't love the premiere.
I'm waiting for when Spencer and Lauren get together. it'll happen…mark my words. too much sexual tension between the two. plus what better way to get back at heidi?! Uh huh - that's what I'm talking bout bitchez
because were bored out of our minds and like to make fun of these people to entertain ourselves haha
FAke or REAL . its PURE entertainment and i love the girls.. and even though heidi is sucha fuking bitch i really love her and i wanna see her dining with lauren at the IVY very soon ohhhhhhhhh or wait thats next season.. right before season 4 open these two will be spotted together to increase the ratings..
LOVES IT
I watch it cause it kinda reminds me of a soap opera. And its interesting watching other peoples problems even if its not real.
audrina's tits
