• New owners for Theorie

  When they bought the site of The Real World: Denver series at 1920 Market Street (formerly B-52 Billiards), Shane Alexander and Josh Hawkinson had big plans for the ultra-swank nightclub and restaurant they planned to name Theörie. But the reality of running a restaurant proved much rougher than life on The Real World, and at the end of October, the space was purchased by Paul Piciocchi, owner of Sutra (1109 Lincoln Street) and Tryst (1512 Larimer Street). According to Tobi Salario, Sutraâ€

• Robert Thompson is headed back to Denver

  When last we saw Robert Thompson, he'd closed Brasserie Rouge, was out of Atomic Cowboy, and was selling B-52 Billiards (which would become the Real World: Denver House, then Theorie). He moved on to Chicago, where he's now co-owner of Seasoned Development -- a restaurant company that just leased 5,500 space at 1433 17th Street in Denver, where the company plans to open its first Noca Kitchen. "Noca Kitchen is going to be a substantial growth vehicle for us in Denver," Thompson

• The debut of News on the Deuce: Were they trying to make it so funny?

  The Deuce's new logo. The idea of Channel 2 rechristening itself as "The Deuce" -- a popular slang term for bowel movements -- in a strained attempt to woo a more youthful audience was mighty amusing. Still, even this decision couldn't adequately prepare viewers for the off-the-rails catastrophe that was last night's launch of News on the Deuce, the outlet's evening newscast. The show, which was moved to 7 p.m. -- two hours earlier than before, so that it would no longer compete directly with t

• Hiking, eating brats, shooting potato guns: The fabulous life of Jared Polis

   OK, so CNN.com's Freshman Year -- the internet reality show starring Colorado Congressman Jared Polis -- isn't likely an accurate representation of how Polis spends his time. And he does allegedly visit an Aurora detention center in the most recent episode (although we don't see it, and I'm convinced he actually went sky-diving or did something equally awesome). But still: We see him hiking in Summit County, we see him shooting a bad-ass potato gun, we see him salivating over brats at a st

  From 104.3 the FanA Jim Beam Party Crew hopeful.​ I keep a running list of jobs, hobbies and other activities I fear my future daughter will pursue, and near the top of that list -- right below stripper, Real World contestant, and Republican -- is Girl in Bar Who Wears Logo Tank Tops and Gives Out Shots and Generally Uses Her Hotness to Build Brand Awareness for One Liquor Company or Another.

  The former Real World home is empty again.​As Bella, 1920 Market Street served upscale Italian fare. As B-52, it was bar chow. As the site of the Real World: Denver, the space served up mostly melodrama. But when new owners Shane Alexander and Josh Hawkinson took over the LoDo building and turned it into Theorie, they hoped to return the space to its more sophisticated origins, complete with a wine bar. But those dreams didn't last long. Those owners left last fall, replaced by Paul Picio

• The Real World Hooters = Classy

  MTV is looking for overweight home-schoolers who have been affected by natural disasters for the next season of The Real World -- and it's coming to find them in Denver, which hosted its own cast of seven strangers picked to live in a house in 2006 and 2007. Real World casting directors will be at a Hooters at 1390 South Colorado Boulevard tomorrow from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., where, we imagine, they will sift through hundreds of hot, bicurious babes and Red-Bull-and-vodka-swilling dudes to find th

This pic was snapped a few nights ago at mtvU's Woodie Awards, which we somehow managed to miss. Luckily, the fine folks over at network went ahead and solved the mystery for us. Evidently dudes looking like ladies here are none other than the insatiable hooligans from the P
