Okay, so overall the article is in decent shape. I've outlined issues and thoughts below:

Images:
- I don't see File:SomethingOldSomethingNewTheHills.jpg as having a strong enough fair use rationale to merit inclusion, especially since it's a reality show and images of these people can be found freely. Other images seem properly licensed.

Prose:
- At People's Revolution, Lauren tells Kelly that she will be leaving the company, which Kelly advocates as a smart decision that will help her to determine her next career endeavors. -- what is people's revolution? The article shouldn't require any foreknowledge of the series to understand so make sure to disambiguate things like these (same thing with who the hell Stacie is.)

References:
- Is there a location for the credits, rather than citing the episode directly? (And if citing the episode directly shouldn't you include a link to watch it like how it is linked elsewhere in the article?)

I know that it's not necessarily the best website, but since it's the only reference I've come across with this information besides the episode itself, I've provided the IMDB link for the episode. As to citing the episode directly, MTV provides a detailed synopsis of each episode it airs that is a separate link from the actual episode to view; since the series ended, the viewing links no longer work.

- Spotchecked statements attributed to refs 8, 9, 10, and 15, and didn't see any irregularities. Sources all appear to be suitably reliable for subject matter, and I didn't see any statements that needed to be challenged.

Great! WikiRedactor (talk) 21:06, 9 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

- One suggestion is to archive the URLs to prevent linkrot in the future; you can use webcitation.org or archive.org and append archiveurl= / archivedate= / deadurl=no to the ref parameters.

Once the small issues above are dealt with I have no issues passing. Der Wohltemperierte Fuchs^(talk) 14:48, 9 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks. I'll take another look at the article tonight. Der Wohltemperierte Fuchs^(talk) 18:41, 10 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

AS the above have been addressed and I didn't see any other issues on a second look I'm passing. Good work. Der Wohltemperierte Fuchs^(talk) 15:15, 11 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
