After six seasons, The Hills comes to an end on MTV tonight.
The reality show has been a guilty pleasure of mine on and off for the last four years since the show first aired. And during my The Hills TV watching, I've wondered several times what the hell I'm doing and if any of my brain cells have been lost in the process. Let's face it, The Hills isn't exactly quality television. But it is riveting. The continuing drama involving Lauren, Heidi, Spencer and alike always sucked me back in, despite my efforts to stay away and watch the evening news. After the show was over, I had to stay tuned in as The After Show hosts, Dan Levy and Jessi Cruickshank analyzed and broke down that night's episode. With their humour and ability as straight shooters, I dare say that The After Show was almost better than the actual Hills episodes.
But after our heroine Lauren left the show, The Hills hasn't been the same. Other than Heidi's plastic surgery controversy, the revelation that Spencer has an obsession with crystals, and the dragged out romance between Brody and Kristin, the show not been doing much of anything of late, not going anywhere, just simply existing. (To reliving the good old days, visit Entertainment Weekly's photo review of the 12 game changing moments that have happened on the show during the last six seasons).
So goodbye to Jessi, Dan, Lauren, Kristin, Audrina, Lo, Speidi, Justin Bobby, Brody, Frankie and the rest of the gang. It has been a good four years, but all good things have to come to an end. See you in reruns.
