BuddyTv.com is questioning whether MTV will return with a new season of Newport Harbor.

Though it hasn’t been confirmed, several sources are strongly suggesting that there’s another season of Newport Harbor is being strongly considered and is expected to air some time in August.

It was the most watched program in its time period among viewers ages 12-34 across all of cable, with over 37 million total viewers during the entire 8-episode run.

NY Daily News gave us their insight into the finale of Newport Harbor ….”NEWPORT HARBOR” (MTV) The season finale already? But we were just settling back in with the Newport gang. Sigh. At least they went out with a bang. Or so I was hoping. When Chrissy told Clay she had a “surprise” for him, I was thinking she was finally going to give “it” up to Clay (remember, last season Chrissy told him she was a virgin and he was totally cool with it). But maybe they’ve, like, already done it? Because she just gave him a USC sweatshirt ’cause she’s transferring schools to be closer to home - and to him, so they can work on their relationship (lame). Oh, she also strung Christmas lights on his boat (lamer).

NOW THAT’S GOOD TV: There’s nothing more exciting than watching a non-conversation. When Chrissy pulled Clay aside at Allie’s party to talk, it went like this: “I, uh, so, I mean … whatever. I don’t, uh, I mean, what?”

Who needs reality when you have “The Hills?”

“Laguna Beach” and its two offshoots, “The Hills” and “Newport Beach,” have become ratings juggernauts and shaped the collective unconscious about reality — except they are not quite reality shows. The infamous statement at the beginnings of these shows states that “the drama is real,” but nothing else seems to be.

The sophisticated and glossy camerawork on these shows stands in stark contrast to the hand-held, cinema verité of “The Real World.”

It’s Official! MTV has announced the premiere of their newest show “Newport Beach: The Real Orange County” on August 15th at 10:30pm. CLICK HERE out the cast, trailer and description of the show.

For three years we have lived, loved and come of age with the teenagers of Laguna Beach. This season, we’re moving up the coast… to Newport Harbor! Join a new group of friends as they discover new loves, face new rivalries and suffer new heartbreaks. On the road to their first kiss, the newest, hottest couple at school contend with an overprotective father and a girl that’s used to getting everything she wants. Meanwhile, former best friends compete for the affection of a sophomore beauty. As they prepare to leave their childhood behind, they’ll find that high school isn’t always a day at the beach. New beauty, new town, new love and new faces: Newport Harbor - The Real Orange County.

According to OC Register (a local newspaper here) - “MTV officials are in talks with Newport Beach officials about bringing a show to the city.”

According to city film liaison Joe Cleary, regulars of “Laguna Beach: The Real Orange County,” would venture into Newport, possibly meeting up with locals who would become characters in the show.

Network spokeswoman Jessica Nicola, however, was tight-lipped, and declined to confirm a tie-in with the Laguna Beach series. “We’re just exploring shooting a series right now, but we don’t have any details to provide,” Nicola said.
