Season chronology |
The Real World: San Francisco is the third season of MTV's reality television series The Real World, which focuses on a group of diverse strangers living together for several months in a different city each season, as cameras follow their lives and interpersonal relationships. It is the second season of The Real World to be filmed in the Pacific States region of the United States, specifically in California after The Real World: Los Angeles.
The season featured a total of eight cast members over the course of the season, as one cast member was evicted and replaced. This is the first season to be filmed in San Francisco, a location later used in the twenty-ninth season, The Real World: Ex-Plosion.
The Real World: San Francisco is noteworthy for the depiction of Pedro Zamora's struggle with AIDS, and his and other cast members' confrontations with David "Puck" Rainey, which led to Rainey's eviction. These conflicts provided what Entertainment Weekly called emotional high points for the season,[1] and are credited with making The Real World a hit. It was ranked #7 on Time magazine's list of 32 Epic Moments in Reality-TV History.[2] The season is also notable for featuring the first-ever same-sex commitment ceremony on TV, between Zamora and his partner, Sean Sasser.[3]
Casting
[edit]This season was the first to feature a castmember, Pedro Zamora, dealing with a life-threatening illness. Future seasons would feature castmembers dealing with other illnesses, such as Lyme disease and cystic fibrosis. This is also the first season to feature an Asian American, Pam Ling, and two Hispanic Americans, Pedro Zamora and Rachel Campos.
Singer Jewel stated in a 2017 interview that she was offered an opportunity to be a cast member but declined, fearing it would be the wrong path for her career.[4]
Casting was completed by January 1994, by which time the cast was informed that one of their housemates would be HIV-positive, though they did not learn which one it was until the day they moved into their Russian Hill house, on February 12, 1994. The cast was filmed until they moved out on June 19.[5] The season premiered on June 30 of that year and consisted of 20 episodes.[6]
The residence
[edit]The cast lived in a house at 949[7] Lombard Street in San Francisco, California from February 12 to June 19, 1994.[8] The house is located between Leavenworth Street and Jones Street, one block east of the eight sharp turns that have earned the street the distinction of being "the crookedest street in the United States". Production renovated the third and fourth floors of the building for filming. A June 8, 2000 fire caused approximately $2 million in damage to the house.[9][10] Several years after the fire, the building was completely renovated, and bears only a slight resemblance to its appearance in 1994.[10] The renovations include a second garage on the east side of the house, atop of which sits a patio.[11][12] It went up for sale as a three-unit triplex at a price of $7 million in 2017.[13]
Cast
[edit]Cast member | Age[a] | Hometown |
---|---|---|
Cory Murphy | 20[14] | Fresno, California[15] |
Cory is a junior at the University of California, San Diego, and the most important issue facing her is what she will do after graduation. She works as a hostess at an Italian restaurant, and enjoys the outdoors and photography.[14] The longest relationship she's ever been in lasted a year and a half, though she says she doesn't think she's ever been in love.[16] She struggles with adapting to life in the city,[17][18] and though she grows close to Rachel, she feels excluded when Rachel becomes close with Jo.[19] | ||
Judd Winick | 24[20] | Dix Hills, New York[16][21] |
Judd is a struggling animator and cartoonist. A cum laude graduate of the University of Michigan, he had a deal with Universal Press Syndicate, but it was cancelled six months into development.

Mohammed Bilal[16] | 24[24] | San Francisco, California |
Mohammed is the lead singer and songwriter for Midnight Voices, a band well known throughout the San Francisco Bay area, though he supports himself doing makeovers at The Body Shop and working at his father's dance club, The Upper Room, where he occasionally reads poetry.[24] He also tries to balance this with his schoolwork, and his girlfriend of six months, a ballerina named Stephanie.[25] Mohammed, whom MTV describes as "a mellow, spiritual guy",[24] is a practicing Muslim.[26] | ||
Pam Ling | 26[27] | Los Angeles, California[27] |
Pam is a third-year medical student at the University of California, San Francisco. She was her high school's valedictorian and graduated Phi Beta Kappa from Harvard College/Radcliffe. Pam claims that she has never failed at anything in her life and is an extremely motivated perfectionist. She hopes to be a physician who will relate to people's social and spiritual needs as well as their physical ones.[27] She provides health care for the homeless as part of her studies.[28] | ||
Pedro Zamora | 22[29] | Miami, Florida[29] |
Pedro is an openly gay, HIV-positive AIDS educator who lectures publicly on safe sex. He was born in Havana, Cuba, and came to the United States in 1980 at age 8 with the Mariel boat lift. Leaving his family behind to move to San Francisco was extremely difficult, but he chose to do so on the insistence of his best friend and roommate, Alex Escarno, who felt he could more easily communicate his message.[30] He is close to his sister Mily.[31] | ||
David "Puck" Rainey[16][32] | 25[33] | San Francisco, California[33] |
Puck is a bicycle messenger who frequently gets into vehicular accidents on his bike. His hobby is racing soap boxes.[33] He is perceived as the rebellious "bad boy" in the cast.[18][34] He has a sister, and is close to his mother and grandparents.[35] Because of his contentious relationship with the rest of the cast (People magazine called him "obnoxious"[36]), he is evicted from the house in Episode 11, though he briefly reappears in subsequent episodes. | ||
Rachel Campos | 23[37] | Tempe, Arizona[38] |
Rachel graduated from Arizona State University in December 1993 with a degree in International Relations and a Woodrow Wilson Graduate Fellowship. She plans to attend graduate school in the fall, and hopes to be a college professor, she expresses indecision on where she will attend during the season. She is a passionate Republican[37] whose heroes include Jack Kemp,[19] and though raised a strict Catholic, she is rebellious, as she claims to enjoy upsetting her parents.[39] She concedes that she is sometimes a bad judge of character initially, and trusts too easily.[37] She has two brothers[34] and a sister[39] named Julie.[40] Judd observes that Rachel likes "bad boys", rather than nice guys, a point that Rachel concedes. It is for this reason that Judd feels Rachel is attracted to Puck.[34] After Puck is evicted, Rachel becomes best friends with Jo, who moves in as Puck's replacement.[19][41][42] Judd refers to them as the "high maintenance twins".[42] | ||
Jo Rhodes[43] | 22[44] | London, England[45] |
Jo moves in after Puck is evicted. She was living in Lake Tahoe prior to joining the cast. She loves the outdoors and extreme sports such as rock climbing. A lifelong independent person, she married in June 1993, but soon divorced because of her husband's abuse. She filed a restraining order against him, which he challenged in court and lost. She is now starting over, trying to make it through school on her own, and does not wish any conflict in her life. Her former roommate Steve has helped her through her difficult times,[45][46] but Jo does not reciprocate Steve's desire to move beyond friendship.[19] She is a strict vegan,[47] and induces vomiting in one episode after learning that food she ate contained pork.[42] |

Pedro Zamora fell ill and was hospitalized in New York in October 1994. He was eventually flown to Miami, and was diagnosed with progressive multifocal leukoencephalopathy, or PML. He received a phone call from President Bill Clinton, who thanked him for his work, and helped facilitate emigration of his older brothers, who were flown to Miami from Cuba, reuniting them for the first time in 14 years.[56][57][58][59] A benefit was held to pay for his medical expenses, at which President Clinton praised Pedro.[60] MTV began a trust in order to pay for Zamora's medical costs, as he had no medical insurance.[57][59] Zamora died on November 11, 1994, hours after the debut airing of the season finale. The money from the benefit was used to form the Pedro Zamora Memorial Fund. His best friend and roommate, Judd Winick, began to lecture on HIV/AIDS and safe sex for him,[57][61][62] and did so for three years.[63]
The 1995 reunion show, The Real World Reunion, which assembled the casts from the first four seasons of The Real World, was marked by antagonism between Puck and his former castmates. Though some members of the audience and the other seasons' casts expressed interest or fascination with Puck and his antics, his confrontation with his former roommate, Mohammed, resulted in Puck's distancing himself from Mohammed physically, and harsh words from others on the stage, such as second season cast member Irene Berrera-Kearns, led to him temporarily leaving the studio.[64]
During the course of his career writing and illustrating comics, Judd Winick[9] has explored LGBT issues, including storylines involving gay bashing, HIV and AIDS, in books such as Green Lantern and Green Arrow.[65][66][67] He chronicled his friendship with Zamora in his 2000 autobiographical graphic novel, Pedro and Me: Friendship, Loss and What I Learned.[9] He created the animated TV series The Life & Times of Juniper Lee in 2005.[68]
Pam Ling went onto a career in medicine and education. As of 2024 she was a Professor of Medicine at the University of California San Francisco. She and Judd fell in love during the vigil they kept over Pedro, married in 2001, and had two children.[9][69][70][71] Their wedding marked the first time two cast members of The Real World married.[9]
Rachel Campos appeared on Road Rules: All Stars, where she met Sean Duffy of The Real World: Boston). They eventually married, and as of May 2016, have eight children.[72] They live in Ashland, Wisconsin,[73] where Sean was a District Attorney of Ashland County[74] before being elected to Congress in 2010.[75][76] She welcomed her ninth child, a daughter, Valentina StellaMaris on October 1, 2019.[77][78] Campos also appeared in The Wedding Video, a 2002 spoof of The Real World written and directed by The Real World: New York alumnus Norman Korpi, which starred ten alumni of various Real World seasons.[73] Rachel works at Fox News as the co-host of Fox & Friends Weekend.[79]
Puck Rainey served as the host for Road Rules: All Stars, and competed on Battle of the Sexes, during which he came into conflict with David Edwards of The Real World: Los Angeles, and married on camera Betty, his fiancée and mother of his two sons, Bogart and Rocco.[70] As of 2008, he was working as a truck driver.[36] As of 2009, the family lives in Alabama,[70][80] where Rainey makes a living through public appearances and miscellaneous jobs. In his spare time, he enjoys gardening and photography, though he prefers to model, whereas his partner works behind the camera.[80] Spanky Ham, one of the main characters on the animated reality television spoof Drawn Together has been compared by that show's creators to Rainey.[81]
At the 2008 The Real World Awards Bash, Pedro and Sean received a nomination for "Favorite Love Story", Pedro also received a nomination for "Best Fight" with Puck, the latter was in the running for the "Roommate You Love to Hate" award, and in the "Gone Baby Gone" category.[82][83]
As of 2023, Cory Murphy is a teacher of middle-school Spanish and language arts in Southern California, and a mother of two.[84]
As of 2023, Mohammed Bilal is a director of diversity initiatives at Stanford University Human Resources, and a father of two.[84]
A 2008 film by Nick Oceano, Pedro, chronicles Zamora's life.
A 2021 documentary by William T. Horner, Keep the Cameras Rolling: The Pedro Zamora Way is a chronicle of Pedro's journey with AIDS and reality television.[85]
Pedro's widower, Sean Sasser, continued his activism for LGBT issues, and his work as an HIV educator. In 1995, he spoke at the inaugural White House AIDS conference, and was appointed by President Bill Clinton to the Presidential Advisory Council on HIV/AIDS.[86] He moved to Atlanta in late 1995, in order to be with his boyfriend, and hoped to open a café.[87] He was later a pastry chef at Ritz-Carlton hotel properties and head pastry chef at a luxury hotel in Portland before settling in Washington DC in 2012, where, as a pastry chef at a restaurant called RIS,[86] he was praised by the Washington Blade for his work there.[88] In June 2013 Sasser married Michael Kaplan,[86][89][90][91] whom he had dated off and on since the 1990s, and with whom he had moved in six months prior.[3] While in Washington, Sasser served as a board member of the AIDS Alliance for Children, Youth and Families. He was active in youth and mentoring organizations, and he and Kaplan served as foster parents to a 4-year-old girl.[86] In July 2013, Sasser, who had also been HIV positive for 25 years, was diagnosed with mesothelioma, a rare cancer of the lungs.[3] He died at his home on August 7, 2013, at the age of 44.[3][86][89][90][91] He is survived by his mother, Patricia Sasser of Detroit, and a younger sister.[86][87]
