26 - MTV's Legally Blonde The Musical: The Search For Elle Woods

This week we’re getting into the reality show with the wildest prize of all time, MTV’s Legally Blonde: The Musical — The Search For Elle Woods. PB Teen is back in a big way this episode as we journey on back to 2007, where necks were constantly covered in Tiffany necklaces and tiny scarves.

What are the ethics of haircuts on television? How many people were drunk during the production? Did the right person win this show? What is the spirit of Elle Woods and why do none of these girls seem to have it! Look, Bailey won’t always have the big hat to make us fall in love with her, but MTV will apparently never learn to test their mics before shooting the big belted numbers.

Honestly, we'd be down for a reboot of this show whenever Broadway is ready to reopen!
