Well … that’s it, the end, fini, over … dunzo! The Hills, the reality TV series that was spun off of the original MTV series Laguna Beach: The Real Orange County, came to an end last night as the series finale episode aired on MTV. For the past 4 years, The Hills has provided some of the most significant pop culture moments of celebrity/reality TV hybrid programming and provided us with hours of extremely addictive if primarily vapid entertainment. Whether you love the show, hate the show, love to hate the show or whatever … you cannot deny the impact of The Hills. I’ve been with these characters since Laguna Beach debuted back in 2004 and despite some waning excitement over the years, I’ve watched every single episode and for the most part loved the series overall. Here are some photos from last night’s red carpet arrivals at the The Hills Live: A Hollywood Ending afterparty which was held at the Roosevelt Hotel in Hollywood, CA:

“The Hills,” the landmark reality soap that cemented Lauren Conrad, Heidi Montag and their pals as tabloid superstarlets, died Tuesday at the Roosevelt Hotel in Hollywood. It was 4. The popular series’ cause of death wasn’t provided, but MTV president of programming Tony DiSanto previously called it “an organic culmination of this saga.” “I’m oddly devastated that it’s come to an end,” said Ben “B-Side” Mandelker, who blogs about “The Hills” and its New York-set offspring “The City” on bsideblog.com. “My five-year goal was to appear as a sidekick on the show, ideally with a subtitle that defines me solely as the friend of someone else. Sadly, that dream never came to fruition.” After 102 installments, “The Hills” faded into the sunset Tuesday with a goodbye gala attended by the show’s cast and a wink, wink twist ending in the final episode that had friends-with-benefits Kristin Cavallari and Brody Jenner seemingly saying goodbye in front of the Hollywood sign, then appearing in front of a backdrop on the Paramount Studios’ lot. “With ‘The Hills’ off the air, I no longer have to field questions about the show’s authenticity,” said Mandelker. “I can think of about 10 different things I’d rather do than engage in yet another dumb argument about whether or not ‘The Hills’ is staged. I just tell people it’s like professional wrestling: Don’t take it so seriously, and enjoy the ride.” The club-hopping, music-pumping, cat-fighting, mascara-dripping, mouth-dropping, crystal-worshipping drama of “The Hills” debuted in 2006 as a spin-off of MTV’s popular high school reality docudrama “Laguna Beach: The Real Orange County.” The series originally documented the journey of bubbly “Laguna Beach” graduate Conrad to Los Angeles. As the show progressed, “The Hills” morphed from a coming-of-age story centering on the budding fashion designer to a splashy soap focusing on a bevy of beautiful people. Andy Dehnart, who has blogged about reality TV for more than 10 years at realityblurred.com, said the series’ lush cinematography and phony authenticity left a lasting impression on the medium. “The legacy of ‘The Hills’ is that it improved the visual language of reality TV while proving that a series could be sustained in an M.C. Escher-like circle where tabloid coverage of the cast members sustained interest in a narrative that largely ignored their real lives, including the intense media coverage that generated interest in the show,” said Dehnart … Throughout its tumultuous six seasons, tabloids and blogs were enamored with the show’s never-ending series of breakups, make-ups and fall-outs, most notably the epic divide between best friends Montag and Conrad, who left “The Hills” in the middle of the fifth season and was replaced by her sassy, raspy “Laguna Beach” adversary Cavallari. The transition from Conrad to Cavallari as the series’ narrator and Montag’s marriage to bad boy Spencer Pratt — the real wedding, not the phony Mexican one — marked the beginning of the end of “The Hills.” Villainous couple Pratt and Montag, who underwent 10 plastic surgery procedures earlier this year, were later phased out of the final season.

It’s amazing to me that a show like The Hills managed to not only define its own section of pop culture but it also managed to create its own mythology that actually took on a life of its own. Despite the fact that Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt annoyed the hell out of me for the duration of their time on the show, I was a bit sad that the villainous Speidi were not included at all in last night’s finale. They had a huge hand in how the show turned out (for better or worse) and that could’ve been mentioned at the very least. THO, Spencer Pratt did manage to crash the afterparty last night … he showed up lookin’ crazy and deranged, which is exactly what you would expect from a guy like Spencer Pratt. After the jump, check out a few more photos including a cute cast photo from the party and some disturbing photos of Spencer …

Back in January we got to see an adorable and HILARIOUS parody video of a group of children doing their interpretation of MTV‘s reality TV show Jersey Shore. Today we get to see those same adorable kids doing their version of MTV‘s faux reality TV show The Hills:

Now, this video actually came out yesterday but in my Nyquil haze of semi-consciousness I wasn’t really paying attention. It was only today that I finally got around to watch the video … and, man, am I glad that I did. These kids TOTALLY nail The Hills. Lil’ Audrina, lil’ Heidi and lil’ Spencer are my faves but, damn, all of these kids do an amazing job. If you don’t laugh your ass off watching this video then you must be inhuman … or are possibly Spencer Pratt. Check out this vid and tell me what you think … it’s genius, right?

Earlier this month we got to see a batch of promo photos of the season 6 cast of The Hills which included the much-expanded Heidi Montag. Montag‘s ample assets were very much on display in Las Vegas a couple of weeks ago but weren’t really showcased in the latest promo video for the show … and, well, we can’t have that now, can we? Here is a new composite cast photo made up of new photos of season 6 cast of The Hills:

Because Montag‘s husband Spencer Pratt has been excluded from the final season of the show, MTV used an old photo of him to be Photoshopped into this composite. But, let’s be honest, Heidi Montag paid a lot of money for her new breasts and they should be featured front and center in every new Hills promo photo — like the ones that you can see after the jump …

With the final season of The Hills looming in the near future, MTV is doing everything it can to try and get YOU to tune in and watch … so they came up with a very artsy-looking promo video to try and catch your eye:

In the clip, the plainly adorned ladies of The Hills tower over the city below, each of the attached to strings … and with the snip of those strings, the girls come tumbling down. Deep, huh? Check out the clip in full after the jump …

As you may recall, last month we learned that the upcoming 6th season of The Hills on MTV will be the last ever … and since new eps of the show will start airing in 3 short weeks, it’s time to start the promo train. We’ve already seen the trailer for the final season of The Hills, now it’s time to check out the promo photos:

Of course, HBIC Kristin Cavallari is front and center but the remaining key players on the show are also well represented in this first batch of promo photos. After the jump, check out our first look at the FINAL batch of promo photos for the contrived drama-fest known as The Hills …

Last week we got official confirmation from MTV that their hit dramatic yet not entirely reality TV series The Hills will end after the upcoming 6th season. The show that was once a pop culture phenomenon has cooled to the point of cancellation … but before the show goes off the air for good, there’s still one more season of over-the-top drama to get thru before The End. Here are a few screencaps from the just released video trailer for the final season of The Hills:

Over the past 4 years “The Hills” revolutionized reality television and became a pop culture phenomenon. MTV will now redefine how the reality drama all ends in Season 6. The last 12 episodes EVER of “The Hills” will conclude like no other show before. How will it end? What will be revealed? Who will return? How will they say goodbye? The drama begins on Tuesday, April 27th as “The Hills: Final Season” premieres at 10pm ET/PT followed by “The City” at 10:30pm ET/PT on MTV. “We are lucky and honored to have worked with this cast and tell their stories for this long, and we are grateful to the many dedicated fans who have stuck with us over the years. We owe it to those fans, the cast and the show to go out on a high note. And this season will deliver on that goal in terms of drama, story, real emotion and an organic culmination of this saga,” said Tony DiSanto, President of Programming, MTV … Viewers wanting more can head over to http://TheHills.MTV.com to watch full episodes, browse through exclusive cast photo flipbooks and get the latest gossip on the Remote Control blog. Since its premiere in 2006, “The Hills” has been a phenomenal performer on MTV. The previous season ranked as the #3 original cable series of 4Q09 and was a top 10 original series for 2009 among F12-34. The Hills dominated its Tuesday time period, ranking #1 versus all television competition among both P12-34 and F12-34. The series is MTV’s most DVR’d series, averaging a 52% bump when Live+7 ratings are factored in. “The Hills” is created by Adam DiVello. Adam DiVello, Liz Gateley and Sara Mast serve as executive producers. Catherine K. Whyte is MTV’s executive-in-charge of production.

This trailer gives us a look at the surgically-enhanced “Heidi 3.0″ (and the new face that even her mother can’t love), the close relationship between Kristin and Brody (as well as the introduction of his new girlfriend), Audrina‘s new boyfriend Ryan Cabrera (who, you may recall, made his reality TV debut on the MTV series The Ashlee Simpson Show a few years ago) and the marital woes of Speidi. Altho the show is ending, it looks like MTV wants to send it off with a bang! After the jump, check out the trailer in full and judge for yourselves …

MTV has issued a press release announcement that Season 7 of The Hills, which will begin airing on April 27, will be the LAST season of the series. After 4 years of mostly successful and marginally entertaining drama, MTV has decided to put an end to the pop culture phenomenon known as The Hills. At last, it’s dunzo, y’all!

Once upon a time, The Hills was THE show that set the pop culture benchmark for water-cooler buzz but in recent years, it has delved into insipid, scripted and completely unbelievable nonsense that has all but ruined the fun the show used to offer. In all honestly, the show started getting really bad even when Lauren LC Conrad was the star protagonist … but once the focus shifted to other, less likable characters (and you know who I’m talking about) the fun spirit of the show was abandoned in lieu of nasty, really unsavory and totally fabricated drama. I was pretty much over the show by the time Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt got “married” for the third time on the show. The show has been over for a while now … at last, MTV has acknowledged that fact. Peace the Spork Out, Hills … when you were great, you were really fun … but the time has really come for you to be dead and gone.

Great news for fans of The Hills (Bad news for those of you with less lurve for the show), MTV has announced that it has renewed The Hills (and The City) for a sixth season!! Despite sagging ratings for The Hills, MTV clearly does not want to let the series fade away so it has signed Kristin Cavallari to come back for another batch of eps:

“The Hills” may have sloped in the ratings after the departure of Lauren Conrad, but it has been picked up for a sixth season, Variety reported on Wednesday night. As previously reported on AccessHollywood.com, around one-third of the “The Hills” audience tuned out after the 23-year-old LC departed the MTV reality show, but it will get a new season. “The City,” starring former “Hills” star Whitney Port, has been picked up for another season as well. Prior to the conclusion of Season 5, “The Hills” cast Lauren’s “Laguna Beach” frenemy Kristin Cavallari after LC announced her departure from the show. Since joining the docu-soap, Kristin has created a host of on-screen trouble with the cast, including friction with Audrina Patridge over on-again, off-again boyfriend Justin Bobby. But she recently told the Los Angeles Times that things between them were less heated than they appeared. “With music and editing they can make it seem that way, but it wasn’t romantic with Justin and I at all because I didn’t trust him,” Kristin said in an interview following the show’s Season 5 Part 2 finale, in which the pair seemed to decide to give their budding relationship a chance. “Just because we kissed doesn’t mean we were intimate.” Instead, she described their current status as “hanging out and talking.” “You’re going to have to wait and see what happens on the next season,” she said.

As much as I LOVE KC, I was not really wowed at all by the last season of The Hills. Yes, I watched every single ep but I was totally bored thruout the season. Even with all the contrived drama surrounding Kristin and her relationships with Justin-Bobby and Brody Jenner, I couldn’t even tell you what transpired from one ep to the next … cuz basically nothing transpired from one ep to the next. As for the scenes with newlyweds Heidi Montag and Spencer Pratt … well, it really looked like they were included on a weekly basis because they had to be included due to contractual obligations. It really felt like the show lost all of its steam … and its gleam. I hope they can amp up the interest level in the coming season cuz I sincerely doubt they can justify a season 7 if they end up giving us another boring season again. Is anyone out there excited about this renewal of The Hills?

Here are a few photos of Kristin Cavallari, the HBIC on The Hills, filming new scenes for the show here in LA yesterday afternoon … as you can clearly see from the numerous and varied expressions on her face, KC was totes tryin’ to show off a range of emotions in this very compelling scene:

You know, I’ve gotta say … as much as I was very much looking forward to this new season of The Hills with Kristin Cav as the main protagonist, the season has been a complete and total snoozefest. Not only are the contrived storylines not compelling but I can’t even talk myself into believing that any of the castmembers give two shits about being on the show. They barely phone in their performances. I can’t even think of one storyline this season that has held my attention for more than a fleeting second. It sucks cuz I really love KC a lot. I’ll keep watching The Hills mainly cuz I’m a creature of habit but … I’m so beyond over the whole show. I will say this for KC, tho, she’s got great hair … at least she’s got that going for her.

OH and a local SoCal TV station (KDOC) here plays old eps of Laguna Beach: The Real Orange County and I’ve been DVRing and watching them all over again … now that was some good TV. Sigh.

The much ballyhooed 5th season of The Hills, with Laguna Beach: The Real Orange County starlet Kristin Cavallari as the new protagonist, premieres on MTV tomorrow night and to promote the return of KC and The Hills, the show’s official site is offering up a whole slew of new promo pics for the 5th season. Here are a few of my faves which all feature the new HBIC Kristin Cavallari and her playthings on the show:

Pretty much everything has been said about Kristin‘s return to MTV so I won’t rehash any of that … I’m excited beyond belief to have her take over on The Hills and I can’t wait to watch all the crazy invented drama take place in the coming 5th season. KC looks great … she was meant to rule ;) Make sure y’all tune in tomorrow night at 10PM on MTV to watch my girl KC take her rightful place as queen of MTV.
