The City of Brotherly Love is once again feeling the love from MTV.

Producers of The Real World and Philadelphia union leaders have negotiated a truce to bring the reality series back to the city--a week after extended bickering with Teamsters pushed Bunim-Murray Productions to pull out.


The city's mayor, John F. Street, is credited with brokering a truce between the feuding parties over the weekend. Plans to resume production in Philadelphia were announced Tuesday-- though details about the agreement were not revealed.


"I am pleased that season 15 of The Real World will be produced here in Philadelphia, as originally planned," Joey Carson, Bunim-Murray's chief operating officer, said in a statement, adding, "On a personal note, I would like to acknowledge the support of the many young Philadelphians who played a major role in keeping the show in town."
