The Real World Season 25 Episode 2 (2011)

Start Time:10 PM(EST)on 16 March 2011.
House-sharing docusoap following the highs and lows of life for the flatmates in a trendy apartment.
The Real World: Los Angeles is the second season of MTV's reality television series The Real World, which focuses on a group of several diverse strangers living together for several months, as the cameras follow their lives and interpersonal relationships.
The Los Angeles season featured a total of nine cast members over the course of the season, as one cast member was evicted and replaced, and another was replaced when she got married. The Real World expanded from 13 to 22 episodes with this season .
Situations involving racial tension and other types of bigotry were a recurrent theme during the season. In the very first episode, Dominic, an Irishman with spiked hair, and Tami, an African-American, experience a bit of culture shock when they pick up country singer Jon at his Kentucky home, whose doorbell plays a country music-inspired horn. Dominic and Tami intend to leave with Jon then, but Jon is under the impression that they would leave the next morning, which entails a discussion in plans, and tension experienced by Jon's family because of Tami's presence. During a rest stop meal on their way to Los Angeles in a Winnebago, Jon is incredulous when he learns that Tami is a Muslim, though he is curious about the religion, which Tami explains to him. Jon attempts to express the tension that his family felt at his associating with "people like them", and questions if Tami and Dominic's families would not feel the same way, but Tami takes exception to the phrase, and Dominic responds that his family would probably feel comforted at his spending time with a young Christian man like Jon. Later, during the Winnebago ride to Los Angeles, Tami taunts Jon's aspirations of being a country singer, condescendingly saying that she wishes him luck, and dismissing the minor celebrity status he enjoys in his "hick" town. Jon retorts that Tami is saying this because "trash like her" isn't allowed in such towns, and although she initially reacts with laughter, she then becomes angry. Later, in her confessional interview, she expresses the opinion that this sentiment was what Jon was feeling all along about her, begins to cry, and asks the camera to be turned off. After arriving at their new home and meeting their other four housemates, Jon is irritated when her overhears Dominic discussing Jon's "nasal twang" with Aaron, and accuses Dominic of "stabbing him in the back". By the end of the first episode, Jon, Dominic and Tami agree to try and put their differences behind them, and start off with a new blank slate. Jon and Tami would go on to become the closest of friends, forming a trio with Beth.

Start Time:6:30 PM(EST) on 15 March 2011.
Phineas and Ferb invent a pair of boots that make the wearer extraordinarily fast; the kids decide to create and race a giant hot air balloon.
Phineas and Ferb is an American animated television comedy series. Originally broadcast as a preview on August 17, 2007 on Disney Channel, the series follows two kindhearted suburban stepbrothers on summer vacation. Each day the boys embark on some grand new project, which annoys their controlling sister, Candace, who tries to bust them. The series follows a standard plot system; running gags occur every episode, and the B-Plot almost always features Perry the Platypus ("Agent P"), acting as a secret agent to fight an evil scientist named Dr. Heinz Doofenshmirtz. The two plots intersect at the end to erase all traces of the boys' project just before Candace can show it to their mother. This usually leaves Candace very frustrated.
Creators Dan Povenmire and Jeff "Swampy" Marsh worked together on the Nickelodeon series Rocko's Modern Life. Phineas and Ferb was conceived after Povenmire sketched a triangular boy — the blueprint for the eponymous Phineas — in a restaurant. Povenmire and Marsh developed the series concept together and pitched to networks for 16 years before securing a run on Disney Channel.

Start Time:5:00 PM(EST) on 15 March 2011.
The seven latest celebrity, music and movie trends of today.
CHICAGO - Loyola of Chicago has fired basketball coach Jim Whitesell after seven seasons.

Whitesell led the Ramblers to a 109-107 record, including a 21-11 mark in 2006-07 and their first 20-win season since 1984-85, but they were just 50-70 in Horizon League play under him and finished eighth the past four years. They went 16-15 overall this season and 7-11 in the conference.
With one year left on his contract, athletic director Dr. M. Grace Calhoun says in a statement released Monday that Whitesell would have had difficulties recruiting and that an extension "would send a false signal of the level of competitive success" meriting one.
