Feel free to take my word for it :lol:

You know, when you get in the hot seat and need to know, for $250,000, who did something on BB, you'll wish you'd listened to me! :wink:

I imagine Marley will read your posts (as I do), solely in order to learn something that will help in the HS. It beats having to watch the actual show itself.

I'll count on you to post all the important-for-game-show details in your reports.

Like I did for Kid Nation. :wink:

Ouch, Ear.

Just kidding - taken out of context, that struck me as very funny.

Glad I could amuse you. But it's true - although I have no interest in the reality genre of TV shows (with the exception of TAR), I do read what recaps are posted here because they might come in handy some day. Not only that but with only a limited amount of TV watching time, I can "cover more ground" so to speak by reading the recaps. I'm grateful to those who post them.

Since this seems to be a guilty pleasure in the Troll household, let me give a few 1st impressions.

1 Adam is downright scary.

2 Sheila is annoying.

3 Sharon/Jacob are annoying, especially her. When did they start going out? 1st Grade??

4 The splitting up of Ryan & Jen was obvious.

5 Natalie - "I love bikinis, coffee & God"?????? :?: :?: :?: :? :? :? Plastic surgeons too, by the look of things.

tgirl and I know what you meant, Ear, but that's not what you SAID. What it sounds like is that you only read tgirl's posts (ALL of them, not just the BB-related ones) for their worth in the hot seat.

Dick kind of numbed me to scary. Adam reminds me of Zach from last season.
2 Sheila is annoying.
She is way past annoying - zoomed right to major beyotch
3 Sharon/Jacob are annoying, especially her. When did they start going out? 1st Grade??


Do you watch BB After Dark on Showtime? Spoiler - don't click if you don't want to know:
Spoiler
they are already out.
4 The splitting up of Ryan & Jen was obvious.
Yup - not sure they are going to handle it well - will be interesting.
5 Natalie - "I love bikinis, coffee & God"?????? Plastic surgeons too, by the look of things.
lol - you guessed it. On BBAfter Dark she said they were the product of her good research skills - right after she climbed into the hot tub with just a g-string and her bra and all the straight guys, and one of the gay ones, began drooling.

I said that I wasn't going to watch it this year.

So far I haven't.

Was it on already? I didn't watch TV last night because I was at Chapman College doing Mock Trial stuff with Maddie last night.

I'd forgotten it was to start last night, but my sister called to remind me. Since I was stuck at the hosp. I had the time to watch. I also like to watch some of the BBAfter Dark, although 3 straight hours of it is too much, even for me. I had to laugh - this year they've given the houseguests pet 'hamsters' to amuse them. ALthough they clearly prefer alcohol for their amusement purposes. The houseguests, not the hamsters.

Thanks, mrk. I hate it when I have to explain my jokes. It happens a LOT :roll:

Funny (but not surprisingly) I didn't see it that way at all, and even after mrk took the time to explain it it took me a moment or two to realize what he was saying. Sometimes I can be extraordinarily dense.

I have it on tape somewhere. It will be weeks before I get to it.

I am glad I will like it.
