MTV basically invented the reality-TV genre with its groundbreaking documentary series "The Real World" in 1992. The show would go on for several dozen seasons, each following a different group of strangers in a different city, to see what happens when they stopped being polite and started getting real. While "The Real World" ended in 2019, it has potent nostalgia for both Gen X and Millennials. So we want to look back on the long-running, genre-defining show and determine the best cast.

Below find a list of the casts from every season of "The Real World." Pick your favorite casts; you can choose as many as you like. The 16 most-popular casts will be discussed in a future episode of The Great Pop Culture Debate podcast; visit www.greatpopculturedebate.com for more information.
