The show was crap but never pretended to be anything else so it was guilty pleasure crap. It couldn't jump the shark because it started lower than Davy Jones' locker.
First let me say I had no business watching this show at the age I was lol...but anyhow it jumped the shark for me when they gay guys came on...I started having nightmares about gay men...at the time it was the 1st time I had seen homosexuality...again I had no business watching this show...Keep youngins from MTV lol
On a wim, I've decided to vote for this show because I could. It couldn't make any first impression on me when I used to watch it. But I was in seventh grade at the time and by the way all the other seventh graders made it sound at the time, it sounded a lot more "risque" than what it really was. That show put me to sleep. And I hope that MTV knows that the oldest audience they can possibly achieve are seventh graders because I boycotted MTV by the time I was in eighth grade. But singling this show out, it had no point. No moral. No humor. Oops they said 'sex' on the new Nickelodeon for 18-year-old gay guys and slut wannabes. Awwww! You could see her bra! But was it supposed to be funny? It never made me laugh. Was it supposed to be serious? It never made me think about any of the situations. In fact, it was mind-numbing. I felt more of any sensation with a mouth full of laughing gas. All it had was some cheap pickup lines and the quintessential cute little MTV indie-surfer chick they must use for every single show on there now. What is with the poor quality of the film. It's under this goofy light to make it look like a soap-opera...but it doesn't. Their scenes are very bland for a "mature" show. They barely even did anything and they were always dressed. Like the controversy-starved world today, they never do anything right. That show never did anything right. The writers must have been awful or the actors. Or both. That show puts me in mind of one of my sister's friends. That means that the minute it is opportuned to be somewhat sleazy, it shys away from it. Of course, I don't wanna think of what my sister's friend does on her own time but that's not the point. I like my sleazy television shows. I was highly disappointed to turn it on every time and it would have absolutely nothing entertaining. The least it could have done was be extremely lame and make me laugh some. It did nothing for me and if you think the same as I do, I bet it did nothing for them either.
I think the original idea of this show was to set an "American Pie" type feel to it and capitalize on that movie's fame but with college dormers trying to get laid,but what the writers failed to address was that American Pie had a plot to it and was entertaining but their show was nothing more than mindless show all about sex and to make matters worse "THERE WHERE NO FREAKING NAKED CHICKS OR BOOBS",This show probably would have thrived better on HBO because this show was nothing but a mindless group of college kiddies wanting to get their rocks off at every chance,I am all about free love but the show was so unbelievable its actually makes you mad at the stereotypes people give to people in college,its a fun fantasy to have especially if your a guy,but it gets old really fast when it gets stupid like it obviously did.MTV must have an account with Satan himself for the things they will do for ratings
I have to laugh at the "the gay stuff makes me sick...but I kept watching the show anyway" types of comments. When something makes me sick, I usually don't want to see it again. I certainly didn't get any thrills seeing most of the girls on here making out, but I didn't want to throw up. Unless someone is 10 years old and says "cooties", I can't figure out why two adults kissing is going to actually make them physically sick. Anyway, I vastly enjoyed this program. A frank attitude towards horniness, and oceans of hot guys in tight underwear, some of whom made out and touched each other. This isn't exactly common on TV, especially if you don't have pay cable. The blase attitude towards homosexuality and bisexuality was the saving grace of this program for me. I certainly preferred watching Undressed to sitting through P. Diddly Squat desperately pretending anyone cares about him, Carson Daly and a bunch of screeching, scrawny wanna-VJs, or more of the Osbournes cursing at each other while stepping in dog crap. I miss Undressed, and I wish it would come back.
Hey, it's softcore porn on basic cable. I watched a few episodes from the first season in hopes there might be something "erotic", but I soon realized that there was really nothing erotic in this show. Well, except that one time that girl said "penis", that was about as close as it got. I've seen pornos that had better plots and acting (and I'm not being sarcastic...really, this show is that awful). Might be funny to watch just to see the bad acting, but it gets old when all the characters are so annoying. Also annoying is that this softcore porn show is on a channel my eleven year old niece watches religiously, and even advertised during the afternoon when she's watching it! To say this show "jumped the shark" is sort of misleading. To jump the shark implies that the show was at one point high enough to start to decline...but it never has. It's stayed right there at the bottom from the start
What drivel! Never before have I seen such a mix of beyond-sophomoric plots, junior high school acting, and brain-damaged writing. To call it a TV series is an insult to 'My Mother the Car' and 'Full House'. To the poster who thought it is a satire -- satires are usually funny, this is just pathetic. And to the posters who said you need to see 3 episodes to understand it -- have you considered writing for the series? It appears you match their brain dead demographics/
All gay guy moments make me want to throw up, and I did one time!! But I still watch the show anyway.
This one could have been brought to us by the same brain-trust who invented non-alcoholic beer. Soft Core Porn with the nudity taken out and the horrible plots preserved. Wow. One thing I once thought I noticed, in the closing credits, I think the actors names are the same as the writers. I may be wrong, but if so, this could explain why the plots are beyond terrible.
What mindless crap. You know, I have to wonder why they still call themselves MTV when they show shows like this all the time instead of music videos. Undressed is not smart, a satire or anything like that. Like everything else on MTV, it's meant to appeal to everything base and enjoyed by teenagers. To respond to think this is a satire of the world, let's look at some of the other things that have been in MTV's line up--The Real World, Tom Green Show, Jackass, Beavis and Butt-head, Celebrity Death Match. My God, yes, what a parade of witty, thought-provoking shows. If I saw wit in anything MTV did, I might be willing to accept that, but there's none to be found. We live in world where people think there's hidden messages and underlying subtext in everything, but Undressed and everything else on MTV is exactly what it appears to be: stupid stuff meant for people they think are stupid.
If it were not for "Total Request Live," I would put this show in as the show that destroyed MTV. There are some of you who believe that it is a parody of soap operas and other mumbo jumbo, but really. You know as much as I do that this show is nothing more that a skin flick that gives the message to teenagers that it is okay to have sex, no matter how many partners you have or how much protection you do NOT wear or how old you are. College life is not like that...not even close. It is hard work, and being a 20-year-old major in Radio and Television, I would know that as much as the next guy. This show is a waste of tape and shows me how much the "M" in MTV has very little meaning now. The actors (so-called) must really be desperate for money (or ass) to participate in this crap, because the only thing that this acting is good for is XXX porn. Why can't MTV just go away?
I can't believe so many people take this show so seriously. More seriously than it has ever taken itself. Way to miss the point entirely. Sex and relationships are stupid, hollow, self absorbed institutions- you expect a show about those very things to be any different. Undressed is for people who can watch TV with two mindsets. We can appreciate the difference between smart, real quality (like Everybody Loves Raymond and 24) and a mindless, glossy top notch guilty pleasure like Undressed. A lot of people like to use this show to push their own agenda or tell stories about people they knew or their own wild sex life as if any of it has a connection to what goes on week in and week out on a TV show. Sorry, but most people are not so stupid that they can't tell the difference between reality and fantasy. If you can't you shouldn't be watching and deserve to live with whatever mistakes you make. It's not MTV's job to raise your kids. My likeness of this show, however, is by no means praise for the writing, directing and acting- it's more like an example of a bunch of wrongs somehow making a right. The puns, corny acting, unbelievable stories, obnoxious characters all come together to create a perfectly surreal style. It's like a dream that you're never asleep long enough for to get to the money shot. I'd rather watch this with it's hyped, unbelievable, beat-you-over-the-head attitude toward sex than any network sitcom with it's casual more slyly pervasive approach to the subject. Maybe Undressed is intentionally corny and is actually satirizing a world obsessed with sex. Ah, never thought of that now have we. Also, I think it's kind of endearing that they never show anything. It isn't porn. You want to make a show about a bunch of kids who get AIDS, have abortions, get on welfare and get beaten by their husbands- go for it. Nobody would watch. Not even the naysayers of this show. That's the point of TV. So here's to fantasy and escapism and all the people who watch this show, get it and would never admit it. My biggest complaint: knock it off with all the lesbians, not every guy is into that.
They don't show the dark side of sex because MTV exists to feed the belief of teens that they're smarter than their parents, are cooler than them, and the foundation of life when you're in your teens to mid twenties is sex. As often as possible with as many people as possible. Sex sells, but it gets boring too if you're only watching other people do it. The only reason this show has any audience at all is the same reason Baywatch got ratings; all of the people running around with half their clothes off. But I couldn't stand that plotless piece of crap either, so goodbye, MTV. Never again will you desecrate the holy ground that is my TV screen.
It is sad to see that there are people who believed that this show never jumped. This crap jumped from conception. This show serves as the destruction of today's youth. We have teenagers who want to have sex because it's fun. NOT ONCE do they show the dark side of pre-marital sex: unwanted pregnancies, bad reputations, pissed parents, and (worst of all) STDs. I am not trying to be religious, but even we wild people have a line that should not be crossed. What's with all of the busty blondes and muscular men? Hello MTV, but not all human beings are like that. I like women for more than their bodies. But MTV refuses to see that not all men are pigs and hardly any women are whores. This show serves as a sad example about today's youth. This crap caters to the TRL crowd who either wants to whack off (men) or wants to find anything that in any way resembles something phallic (women). This crap should be treated like one of the stars' diseased underwear and burned for all time.
