This season, the girls will visit Alaska, Jamaica, and Monaco, with Hugh in tow. They will meet royalty and inevitably, whether in a penthouse shower or a grotto, strip down again (the girls have two nude pictorials to date). The show’s theme song, Nasty Tales’s remix of “Come on-a My House,” will continue to ring in the ears of viewers. And, maybe, I will finally convince myself that this reality is of Hefner’s making, not the other way around. Regardless, whoever is behind this show ― be it Hef, be it the girls ― is wise to the delivery: “I’ve seen your stuff and I love it,” says Hef, referring to the production Holly’s done on a Playboy pictorial. He’s just given his number-one a desk. Cue Holly’s impish giggle, implying that “stuff” is stuff like silicone… oh, a day in the life The Girls Next Door.
