Thanks to a heads up from my buddy Andy over at Reality Blurred I spent most of yesterday watching my latest guilty pleasure. The Only Way is Essex is a UK reality series that's the format of The Hills meets the cast of The Jersey Shore. The first two seasons are now available for US residents to watch on Hulu. Two of the main characters are Mark & Kirk, who both have issues with keeping their clothes on. There's even an openly gay little blond twink named Harry who usually delivers the best line in each episode. Watching TOWIE might steal a little bit of your soul, but it made me nostalgic for the early days of Lauren Conrad.
