If you can stomach it, here’s a clip from MTV’s The Real World Brooklyn, which is being filmed in Redhook.

So what did locals think of the cast invading their neighborhoods? Perhaps transgender Katelynn (who despite hating us is one of the more interesting “characters” on the show) sums it up best on her LiveJournal, nostalgically recalling: “all those disgusting hipsters in Williamsburg who would run up to the camera and tell us how much we suck.” She continues, pitting MTV versus Hipsters (who to side with?!): “Riiight, because we’re the reason the borough is experiencing wide-spread gentrification. Or maybe after the show airs all those shallow hipsters will move in, because, y’know, they haven’t been doing that for the past decade.”
