Join the Carroll Gardens Anti-Reality TV Coalition

A report on Brownstoner suggests the threat of The Real World: Carroll Gardens still looms over our precious neighborhood.

An intern from Hunter College who is working for MTV provided an interesting statement that The Real World may not even film [in downtown Brooklyn] because they were having some issues with the BellTel Lofts building with the location at 116 Third Place in Carroll Gardens as the backup.

As a response, I'm forming a neighborhood alliance called CHARTS - Concerned Hilbloecockers Against Reality Tv Shows - to combat the threat of The Real World or any other reality television program from co-opting our brownstone paradise. Alex McCord, you are officially on notice!

IMHO: It's bad enough that these putrid reality tv shows invade my home via the TV - now the reality shows are invading MY backyard!

I am Alex McCord

Earlier, I decided to take The Real Housewives of NYC Personality Quiz. I am fellow Brooklynite Alex McCord.

"Worldly, classy and educated, you may not have been born into high society, but you know you belong there."

How true!

However, I do have an issue with her exploitation of our sleepy brownstone community for fame. As television crews continue to shoot here, more "social-climbers" like McCord will certainly be drawn to South Brooklyn.

IMHO: This area doesn't need more Real Housewives!
