Anybody else watches that show? One of the few shows worth my time on MTV or TV in general.

[MTV.com](http://MTV.com) has full episodes online now, so you can watch them anywhere.

For some reason I can’t embed it so, you’re just going to have to click.

The spiderman episode is hillarious. :crackup

I think most, if not all, of the show is scripted… it’s still damn funny and worth watching.

Oh no doubt on that, if nothing else they have planned stuff to do/course of action. Nobody is that spontanious and crazy, but the myth that Rob is that crazy is what attracts viewers.

One thing of credibility that they get is that Rob is the IIRC producer for the show, so he sets up his own plan of what to do next and MTV just backs them.

It’s great either way.

Edit: Big is Robs body guard, and when you spend that much time together (pretty much all the time), good friendships form. I wouldn’t be suprized if Big is no longer on salary as a body guard, and more of a room-mate/co-star.

It was all a joke, big is not a bodyguard. The DC video from a few years back had a little skit in the middle of it starring big as rob’s bodyguard because of the harrasment from security guards at skate spots. (yes this is a big deal and can get you fucked up or in serious liable cuz you beat the shit out of some secutity guard) It was strictly a joke, mtv got a hold of it and well the rest is history.

Really?

I wouldn’t expect much credibility from an MTV show, but I thought that part might have been legit.

So they were friends before and “body guard” thing started as a joke?
