Typically, reality shows film over a period of one to two months, and most contestants are fighting like hell to stay until elimination.

But we doubt anyone will last a week on 90’s House, a new MTV competition series that will force coddled millennials to live in a house without any smart phones (read: no social media).

That means they’ll have to survive with just crude ’90s tools like air conditioning, cable television and refrigerators. How will they do it…?

PEOPLE magazine, which broke the news, detailed the series.

90’s House is a new competition show that places 12 millennial housemates in a ’90s-inspired home, forcing the contestants to officially unplug their modern-day devices.

On each episode, opponents will face elimination by competing in various ’90s-themed challenges featuring catch phrases, fashion and technology only from that decade. In addition to a Mazda Miata and two VIP tickets on a ’90s cruise, the winner will pocket $90,000.

NSYNC member Lance Bass and Christina Milian (who wasn’t famous until the 2000s, but sure) will host.

Guests stars include notable Gen Xers Mario Lopez (Saved by the Bell), Michelle Williams (Destiny’s Child), Joey Fatone (NSYNC), Marques Houston (Sister, Sister), Tyson Beckford, Bill Bellamy (Def Comedy Jam) and Joey Lawrence (Blossom).
