We are now two episodes into A Shot at Love with Tila Tequila 2, and right now, with 18 men and women still vying for Tila's heart – or other things in her general chest region – things are a touch…chaotic.
It's like summer camp, if summer camp had a) strippers and their clientele, b) an authority figure who is less than 5 feet tall and extremely encouraging of shenanigans and c) an unlimited supply of alcohol.
At this point, my reactions to this mess are about as chaotic as the show itself, so here are some brief thoughts I had while watching this episode of A Shot at Love with Tila Tequila 2?

Previously on A Shot at Love with Tila Tequila: 15 lesbians and 15 straight men moved in, and 12 were immediately sent home. Serenity and Lili made out and bad-ass Tila Tequila sent them packing. Jay and Bo continued the longstanding (and imaginary) Ohio/New Jersey feud. The Chad and his wang bone were awesome.
The final 18 arrive at the mansion in limos, pink and blue, natch. Chad is more excited to move into Tila than he is moving into the house, if you get his meaning. Michelle wants to bite Tila's sexy Asian ass. They see the big bed, and Brittany promises to castrate any male genitalia in her face. Chad brought a blow-up doll.

On last week's second season premiere of A Shot at Love, 15 straight male contestants and 15 female lesbians have been introduced to 26-year-old Tila Tequila in attempt to give her another chance at love after her failed relationship with season 1 winner Bobby Banhart. Although doing another run of the bisexually-themed reality dating show propels the MySpace sensation yet again into the chaotic world of catfights and reality dating drama, she remains optimistic about her brand new selection of male and female hopefuls.

With the second season of A Shot of Love premiering on Tuesday, fans got to meet the new batch of lovestruck men and women who are willing to do almost anything to win the heart of the most famous woman on MySpace. Tila Tequila promised us that her second Shot at Love will be wilder and crazier than the first, and we are about to witness the wackiness of the reality dating show as it continues to air every Tuesdays at 10pm.
Before we delve deeper into the new season, though, Tila invited TV Guide into the home in which all the magic happens and talked about the second season.

I'll admit I was more than a little apprehensive as I started watching the premiere episode of A Shot at Love with Tila Tequila 2. I have watched a lot of crummy TV in my time writing about reality shows, and I thought I had a strong constitution for the worst of it. Age of Love, Survival of the Richest? Sure, a weaker person might have lost all hope for humanity after that, but I persevered. Then along came the A Shot at Love with Tila Tequila spin-off That's Amore! and the sheer overwhelming bland badness of that series nearly broke me.
So I basically watched the premiere episode of A Shot at Love with Tila Tequila sort of all tensed up, waiting for it to become as bad or worse than some recent writers-strike-rushed reality series. By the end, I was relaxed: yes, it's trashy, sleazy, manufactured, pandering to the lowest common denominator, etc. But – and believe me, I know the fact that it's not completely at the bottom could just mean it has room to slide – it still somehow wasn't as bad as I was expecting. And that's why you should always lower your expectations!
Here were some of the highlights of the episode for me.

MySpace bisexual queen Tila Tequila is back vying for another Shot at Love. In the finale of the first season of A Shot at Love with Tila Tequila, Tila chose Bobby over Dani, but that didn't work out because he was too small-town to deal with her fast-paced lifestyle.
On A Shot at Love 2, 15 straight guys and 15 lesbians will try their best to recapture the magic of last season. Will the Internet community collectively go gay for a new Dani? Will a new Domenico weasel his way into our hearts, then star in an offensive spin-off? Only one thing is for certain: there will be lots of sex and sexual innuendo.
