Derek West This show is good for what it is. And thats a show specifically made for teenagers. I'm sure the actually city of Maui is filled with diverse, intelligent, and cultured people but unfortunately the common teen is looking for something else.. And I'm sure MTV found it with Maui Fever. Drama, Sex, alcoholism, parties, and hook-ups is basically what a young adult finds interesting; If the show tried a more cultured approach, their ratings might sink even though it might be known to be more respectable. This shouldn't be a debate, nor should it be hated on. It's a show, that either entertains you or not. I'm sure no-one despises it so much that they have to rate it 1 out of 10. So relax. Watch it and take your brain out, gasp at the awkward relationships and giggle at the boys one track minds.

Andy This show puts Laguna Beach to shame. It actually shows the reality of some young people, and the reality of what they get up to in this day and age. To be honest i think the whole concept is hilarious, because its completely the opposite to Laguna Beach where all the actors are rich. I did love Laguna Beach, but i like this one too because i can relate to it much easier than to a bunch of rich kids, who don't represent the true Orange County, where there are plenty of average young Americans too! Firstly i understand why some residents of Maui may have been offended by it. But in honest opinion it doesn't give a representation of Maui as a whole, only a representation of those specific actors and their specific lifestyles. Any viewer will understand that its not the real thing and that Maui is still a beautiful place with a lot to offer. However i think this whole argument has been blown totally out of proportion. MTV has always been known to showcase programmes which can be offensive. But that appeals to me and probably to most of MTV's viewers. If you don't like it then simply don't watch it! There's no reason to hate it just because of the location. You must consider that it is a TV show made for the purpose of entertainment, even though it may not be based on fact.Lets not be selfish here. The fact it, Maui is being put on the map and I'm sure you cant complain. There will always be controversy for any reality TV programme on MTV. The Hills does not give a true impression of LA for instance! There are a lot of poor people there too. But the fact is, its a TV show based on the lives of those individuals.I think its an awesome show, probably the best of MTV ever! The cast are absolute jokers, and partying is fun!

msmara I like this show, Maui is beautiful and I enjoy the scenery very much. It makes me miss it there and I'm really considering going back, so for anyone who lives there you should be thankful that MTV is doing a show there because it's attracting more tourism, which is always a good thing for your economy.Aside from that there are many interesting characters that I'm already starting to love to hate, plus it's opposite from Laguna Beach, because there are more guys than girls. It's safe to say that I'm going to keep watching and most likely be going to Hawaii really soon because it's so pretty.

dunbare This show is incredibly stupid! I have only seen one episode and it is just another one of those stupid 'reality shows' like Laguna Beach where all this unnecessary 'drama' is going on. Really it is just a bunch of people crying because they are not having sex with the people they really want to have sex with. There are two very blond girls with very dark tans who look like they are from California. One is apparently a flirt who has a loser boyfriend the other still has the hots for a sun damaged guy who looks like he is dying of some sort of disease, I think his name is Shane, but it is spelled differently. I just kept thinking as I watched this show that the characters keep getting whiter and whiter. Are there not Hawaian people in Maui? I have never been, but i'm pretty sure there is more to life to the average Maui resident than soaking in the sun and whining "like oh my gosh I am totally stressed!" Annoying! MTV really is just a sess pool of garbage! No good shows at all! For anyone over the age of 10 stay away.
