The early 2000s brought our civilization much shame in the form of Justin Timberlake's ramen hair, jeans low enough to require a Brazilian bikini wax, and MTV's 'Next.' You know it, because you watched it excessively and guiltlessly, desiring a new kind of 'Blind Date,' but with a Perez Hilton flair.

So, on this week's new episode of 'TV. Watch. Repeat.,' Allison and Kate investigate the finale of the series — not the pilot, per usual, because the first five seasons of 'Next' appear to be scrubbed from the internet. (Though, no doubt, they exist on the dark web somewhere.) Instead, we take a look at Next's final bow, the 20th episode of its sixth season, which features a contestant summarizing the series via a large stomach tattoo reading: "Shameless."
