So can they actually be classified as hipsters any more if they're on TV? I would figure selling out/being exploitative of a culture is kind of antithetical to hipsterdom.

The show won't be anything but insufferable regardless.

I thought this was common knowledge? An authentic reality show wouldn't be interesting to watch at all to anyone who would watch them.

This sounds like a cunning ploy just to get them all together in one room for....reasons....

I totally used this joke on twitter a month ago before it was cool to use this joke.

I have a buddy that finishes the Real House Wives of Vancouver and these people are just pure trash. Stuff that gets cut out could be better than the actually show. Can't say I watch it or would watch a show on hipsters. It's bad enough I have one on my hockey team. Do you know how hard it is to constantly come up with excuse as to why you "accidentally" hit him on the ice?
