Hooked on the reality TV world after appearing on Dancing with the Stars, Bristol also talked about her new reality show on the BIO network. It sounds like a smaller-scale version of MTV’s The Real World, but maybe the presence of her two-and-a-half-year-old son Tripp will keep things from getting out of hand.
