Dream Location, Nightmare Show

Simply stated, Maui Fever is horrendous. Whereas Laguna Beach depicted beautiful people in sun drenched perfection, Maui Fever chronicles unsightly losers drinking from paper cups. When they are not scamming sex from tourists, they are discussing sex. Their behavior is infantile and pathetic. Despite the tropical location, Maui Fever is a documentary about letches.

MTV hailed Chaunte as another Kristin Cavallari. Kristin was gorgeous, manipulative, and a villain one could cheer. Chaunte is odd looking, whiney, and without redeeming qualities. She does not play men against each other. She sluts them into fighting each other. Finally, Kristin cruised Laguna Beach in a BMW. Chaunte drives a truck rednecks would adore.

Co-producers Liz Gately and Tony Disanto choked hard. Following their Laguna Beach success (Gately created), they attempted replication. They failed miserably. Their cast lacks interesting characters. Their cast’s activities are more suited for small town high school environments. Sitting around talking, drinking beer from plastic cups? Awakening in a garage on a Nirvana-era couch? Horrid.

MTV has enjoyed success with reality television. They have created scintillating backgrounds and compelling characters. Maui Fever is amateur and wretched. The program does not possess one viewable quality. I recommend no one watch.
