"I'm From Rolling Stone": It Will Never, Ever Die

What's that, you say? You thought we were through ranting about a low-rated, highly annoying reality show aired only at 3:30 a.m. in Zurich on holidays? Well, trust us: We thought we were finished with I'm From Rolling Stone. But now n+1—the only literary magazine whose title begs for a a "Weird Al"-style parody—has a first-person essay by a woman who helped cast the show, and who had to sit through hours upon hours of applicant videos: More »

"I'm From Rolling Stone": At Last, We Have A Wenner

After more than two months of low-rated broadcasts and irresponsible cancellation rumors, MTV's I'm From Rolling Stone—the show that Ralph Gleason and Hunter S. Thompson silently, angrily watch from a sports bar in heaven—was put to rest last night with a two-part finale. Intern Kate Richardson stayed up late enough to survey the damage and to gasp aloud when the show's winning contestant was unveiled. More »

Not That You Care, But "I'm From Rolling Stone" Is Definitely Done

So this is how MTV's I'm From Rolling Stone ends: Not with a three- or even four-star bang, but with a one-star whimper. After weeks of publicizing the show like crazy, the magazine's blog has removed last week's rah-rah post about Sunday night's never-aired episode, and buried this little announcement where it knew no one would find it: More »

"I'm From Rolling Stone": Is It Gone, Jann?

Unless we're being lied to by TVGuide.com, MTV.com, and our very own Tivos, last night's scheduled episode of I'm From Rolling Stone never aired. Maybe the show has finally been yanked, or perhaps MTV felt that the country needs the healing power of Bam's Unholy Union; either way, this is greatly disappointing, as Sunday's installment was supposed to feature the interns doing some sure-to-be hilarious environmental reporting. That said, we don't really need to actually see the show anymore to know what's going on, so we've decided to encapsulate it anyway: More »

Nothing can kill MTV's I'm From Rolling Stone reality show, which is still going strong despite viewer apathy, last-minute schedule changes, and viewer apathy about last-minute schedule changes.

"I'm From Rolling Stone" Episode Guide, Part Five

Apparently TV Guide's website needs some maintenance: Even though we were told that a new episode of I'm From Rolling Stone wouldn't be on until Tuesday, those crafty programmers at MTV went ahead and aired one last night. Thankfully, Idolator intern Kate Richardson was there to answer that ancient Zen riddle: "If a low-rated reality show falls on a late-night Sunday slot, and nobody's there to watch it, does it make a sound? Or is it merely being passive-aggressively euthanized?" More »

Some highlights—including a sentence containing the terms "blow-jobs" and "Jann Wenner"—after the click-through. More »

"Rolling Stone" Writer Asks: Have You Heard Of This "Rolling Stone" Reality Show?
