HTP THROWBACK: The Hills, In Retrospect (and anticipation)

vte0c4xtmyubmjvga7mu.jpg

Here’s the Problem:  The Hills comes back tonight after 9 years.  For 9 years we’ve only gotten glimpses about the lives of Lauren, Heidi, Spencer, Audrina and Justin Bobby through a random TMZ post here, an obscure sighting on the streets of Austin there, and, of course, single seasons of shitty competition shows.

But what we’re most excited about tonight is not finding out if Speidi can go through a full episode without a Botox touch up, but to see who the background stars will be. As we know from the first run of The Hills, random characters can turn out to be your next favorite reality show trash (see: Brent Bolthouse’s “other” assistant turned Southern Charm start, Landon Clements) or beauty mogul (see: Teen Vogue star intern turned Glossier founder, Emily Weiss) or guy who looks familiar but you can’t think of us name (see: forgettable model turned forgettable actor, Colton Haynes) .

Actual Problem:  How much  do you think Mischa Barton got paid to agree to be “introduced” on this series?  Hoping they used at least half that much money to get these has-beens into today’s middle-aged version of La Doux (aka, Sam’s Club).
