I found it very telling that Dani did not want to go on their trip together.

I have a feeling that she is going back into seclusion when this is over and Dick won't hear from her for another two years.

I love that this thread title has "recap" in quotations.
Exactly as it should be. Tonight's show was merely the pilot episode for what AG hopes to be, and the real title of the show should have been: The Donatos.

Some of us are just gluttons for punishment....I guess. I'll have to see how long I can take the "Alison show". It is starting now on the west coast...oh, the pain of it all...

Go Pats!! Go Tom!!

It was totally scripted. I thought we would see the questions . That was the ONLY reason I watched tonight. Sadly, I watched the show only to see the recap and not the questions. I could have waited until Tuesday show.

Dani looked anorexic at the beginning of the show ,at least she looks healthier now with a bit of weight gain.

Shockingly BB wasn't nominated for an Emmy. I can't imagine why.

I also skipped the show for the first time in all the seasons. I had it set for recording, so decided to wait because I wasn't too enthusiastic. As it turned out, with the delay, I only had 15 minutes or so recorded and after watching that, I decided I hadn't missed anything and wouldn't bother going to the CBS website to watch. I'll be watching Tuesday only to see the jury questions and the HGs' reactions to the America's Player twist. I couldn't care less who wins.

At least my favorite won the HGTV's Design Star. Made up a little for this pile of s***.

The scene of Dick (with the music and all) in the final part 1, should have been nominated. That was some touching TV, on par with 'Chariot of the Gods.' lol....

I felt sick watching this- had to change the channel a few times- I wondered why- and then realized the show was all about making the rest of the hg's look stupid and D/D were a happy little family...awwwwww..as I throw up my dinner!


I'm with you!!!

It is really the only thing that they could have showed. Anything else, would have been even more boring with just the 2 of them left in the house.

They could have showed the jury questions at least.

My cable listings say that Tuesday's show is only 1 hour.
So they have to pack in the jury questions, the voting, the winner, the reunion and Q&A, AND revealing Eric as AP all into a 1 hour show, well 44 minutes anyway.
And you know 5 minutes of that is going to be more black & white recaps!

Carrie, don't get your hopes up. It will be 58 minutes about Dick, Daniele, and Nick with a 2 minute break to tell about AP at the end so we will see no reaction.

Because really, no one else mattered this season besides the Donatos.

Prepare yourself.

Shoot, Jen. You're right. I need to lower my expectations.

Did anyone catch what happened on Sunday's show?
It felt like propaganda. They showed an extended version of Dani and Jen's disagreement about Nick to justify Dick's pouring the tea on Jen.

Then they showed Dick and Dani on the outside couch. Dick told Dani that Jen couldn't attack her so Jen ATTACKED him. I think CBS is trying to clean up Dick's image. No footage of course of the extended verbal abuse Dick heaped on Jen on other numerous occasions.

Well, they have finally outdone themselves. This was THE most obviously scripted thing I've ever seen. Who do they think they are kidding? Dick and Dani sitting around mildly reminiscing about the season?

I can't believe I watched the whole thing. This is the first time I've really felt like writing to CBS and complaining about a truly asinine presentation.

It was fun to see some of the old stuff.. hard to believe so much happened this summer. It was a fun one! But that STUPID scripting really, really left a terrible taste in my mouth!

I agree, Realurker. This was all about cleaning up Dick's image. They probably hope to use him in a future all-stars version, or on Survivor or something, and think they need to improve his image first.

This show was a joke...did we really need to see an hour of the Donato's reminiscing about the former house guest and what a great team they are? Couldn't they have saved that for the "Donato family Christmas special" that's certain to air this holiday season on CBS now that they are one big happy family again?

The show last night was such a waste of an hour in my life. It reminded me of Survivor, when the F2 go to each torch of the previously voted out contestant and they show the highlights of each person.

I had to laugh when I scanned through the Showtime shows I had taped for the last few days. I bet I could count the words that were said in those episodes. I was thinking it would be funny if someone were just flipping channels to find something to watch and ended up on those boring shows . . ???

It wouldn't have mattered who the F2 were, they would have had the two "reminisce" about the season and the HGs. The fact that ED & Dani are F2 just made it seem more ridiculous than it would have been had any other 2 HGs been in the F2.
