Whereas ''[[Flavor of Love]]'' tried to redefine [[Crazy Awesome]], ''[[I Love New York]]'' stays firmly in [[So Bad It's Good]] territory.

* [[Aesop Amnesia]]: New York eliminates Onix for saying Sister Patterson's church performance was an act, and why did Tango dump her? Because she insulted his mother. Come season two, it's obvious she hasn't learned her lesson as she's back at insulting the contestants family members (Pretty and Punk's Mothers and Sisters<ref>Via commentary in Punk's case</ref>, and Buddha's father). Pretty [[Screw This, I'm Outta Here|even leaves]] because of this.
