Well, it seems strange, but a bit belated here, welcome to a special back-tracked edition of DC SocialPulse. Yes, I was so busy with covering The Challenge: Free Agents, I wasn't able to cover the final act of Real World Ex-Plosion - the Reunion, which debuted just before Free Agents premiered in April. But fortunately, I saved all the cast tweets and I am able to post them on here, finally, at the beginning of fall 2014 just months after it all aired, and exactly one year since filming took place right here in my neck of the woods. Now, let's proceed...

It's safe to say this was the season that revitalized The Real World in a big way. The first-ever twist to the longstanding formula that was unveiled on, of all things, my 30th birthday last year might've divided many longtime fans of the show. But as it went on, those sketchy first impressions disappeared to the point that many have enjoyed watching this season. So much so that, while we don't usually mention anything on here about numbers, that this is the highest-rated RW season since Back to Las Vegas, and certainly reintroduced a whole new generation of viewers to this show.

   And boy, this has been one hell of a season...I don't normally curse in the social media world (pardon my language), but I pretty much had to utter it out to describe the wild and crazy nature of this Real World season that I have enjoyed so much. And the season that has revamped & revitalized this pioneer of reality television came to a close in, fittingly enough, rather explosive fashion, along with the usual emotions surrounding the cast leaving the city. After seeing a couple fights that saw Brian be kicked out of the last night in the house and all the emotions that come with any season finale, along with the hilarity of the Clip Show, this incredible season wraps up with the Reunion.

   Following twitter's view, I'll have info for those who want to talk the upcoming 2nd season of Are You The One?. Just a reminder here that there's adult language in some tweets below, but I am keeping it uncensored in order to retain the heat of the moment. So if you are mature enough, please read with discretion. :-) With that, join us after the jump for the reunion, starting with the weekend after the finale and before the reunion - which was the week of the premiere of The Challenge: Free Agents - April 9-10.

Hi again everyone and welcome to another edition of DC SocialPulse as we cover season finale night of Real World Ex-Plosion. And boy, this has been one hell of a season...I don't normally curse in the social media world (pardon my language), but I pretty much had to utter it out to describe the wild and crazy nature of this Real World season that I have enjoyed so much. And on Wednesday, the season that has revamped & revitalized this pioneer of reality television came to a close in, fittingly enough, rather explosive fashion, along with the usual emotions surrounding the cast leaving the city.

   Last week, we saw a reconnection between Jenny & Cory making Brian jealous, Jamie getting a reality check for her aggressive behavior, and a touch of old-school Real World as Arielle pursued her aspirations of filmmaking. And it ended with the two guys turning on each other. And that's where the finale picks up with that confrontation as Brian reaches the depths after losing Jenny, and threatens to tear the house apart just before they move out. And as is custom for finales, the roommates all prepare to say farewell as the relationships they have are tested one more time. But isn't all sadness, after this finale we then saw the hilarity of what I like to call The Clip Show (you can call it by another name if you want but I'm calling it by the original name when the Seattle season first had something like this.

   Following twitter's view of both of these, we'll have an extended wrap of both last week's and this week's episodes (we tabled the EP11 wrap due to the cliffhanger & my busy blog schedule). First, Just a reminder here that there's adult language in some tweets below, but I am keeping it uncensored in order to retain the heat of the moment. So if you are mature enough, please read with discretion. :-) But first off, in addition to a marathon, there was also a proposal on the same day Ethan & Amber pulled that off on the Are You The One? Reunion...or so we thought. Join us for what happened next and more from finale day of RW Ex-Plosion after the jump.

Hello again, welcome to another edition of DC SocialPulse as we cover episode 10 of Real World Ex-Plosion, and we are now in countdown mode with only a few episodes left in what has been an awesome season. Last week, we saw Hailey go HAM on Thomas, the Jay & Jenna saga reach new heights and the "bropocalypse" of Cory & Brian frustrating Jenny.

   And this week, more of the same as those storylines from last week develop. We will see Tom give Hailey an ultimatum to leave the city, while Jenny plays more games to try & manipulate Brian. There's some serious jealousy taking place in the struggling relationship saga of Jay & Jenna, while the one & only Hurricane Ashley makes a return to the house.

   After my episode wrap, I will also address, in an objective manner, a situation that arose on the day of this episode airing about a beef among those on the upcoming season of The Challenge who follow me, and why I always make sure to steer clear of getting into the heat of conflict among feuding members of this community for whom I'm friends with.

   Just a reminder here that there's adult language in some tweets below, but I am keeping it uncensored in order to retain the heat of the moment. So if you are mature enough, please read with discretion. :-) So,  join us following the jump for twitter's view (and my look) of this week's Real World Ex-Plosion, along with info on our upcoming RW Reunion Revealed post.
