Exactly what Engrbabe said up above. I now watch the RW shows so that I at least recognize them when they are on a challenge later, and to check out the house and the area, though we really see very little of the areas anymore, except bars. I still like Nehemiah and the hairdresser girl.

Jennab, I think she was more so pulling on him and actually pulled off his shirt when he was trying to get away from her. She never actually hit him, but it was very smart of him to leave the situation before she went too far.

VERY GOOD point Jennabee... didn't think of that... I guess Frogichik is right, she didn't get a chance to actually assault him, but if he had stayed around she would have and I would've loved to see her go. I'm sorry but I don't buy the excuse that she was just drunk, yes she was drunk but to me, it doesn't make it okay what she did, left a very bad taste in my mouth. Another thing, almost all of them are unattached or have boyfriends/girlfriends but are on a break... makes things awfully convenient! lol. Wonder what their job will be... or maybe they said and I missed it... Danny sort of reminds me of Brad, not sure why... looks probably and Wes does look a bit like Abe...

Laura, they are going to be filming a documentary of the SXSW (or South by Southwest) music festival Austin has every year. I think it's supposed to the the country's largest annual music festival.

Laura - I also keep thinking of Brad and Abe! As a matter of fact, I forget that it's new people until they show a close up of them. And the blond girl kind of reminds me of the blond girl who liked and always flirted with Brad. I can't believe what happened with that fighting. It seemed like it was becoming a mob mentality there. After rewinding and watching in slow motion, I believe the guy that sucker punched Danny was the same guy that pushed Wes from behind for seemingly no apparent reason (when Wes was talking to someone on the street). And the guy that took Danny down, and then ran away - was standing on the street when that guy pushed Wes. (hope this makes sense. If you watch it again, watch when things just start escalating and Wes is talking/arguing with someone on the street and gets pushed from behind. Look at the guy who pushes him, and then a guy standing there in a blue shirt and baseball cap - which I believe is the guy that knocks Danny down) And when Danny is home laying in bed, and one point he moves his hand away from his eye and you can see the dent in his head. I guess later it all swelled up. Poor thing. that looked so painful. I certainly hope that guy got in trouble. I mean he's caught on tape. And didn't cops arrive on the scene after it was over? But on the other hand, if the guy got arrested, wouldn't we have heard something about it? I am also really impressed with the way Nehemiah handled himself. I was thinking he was going to get jumped from people mistakenly thinking he was attacking her. If I was him, I'd wash my hands of a drunk Jo and stay far away from that. It definitely seems like an event filled season. I wonder what else happens to Danny - when his father calls with "bad news".

I just kept thinking, if you know you are that bad on hard liquor then why don't you stick to wine or beer? I think the rest of the house should ban her from drinking liquor. I felt so bad about the horrible punch that Danny took to the face. So much damage done because of that girl.

What is sort of sad is that Johanna, the drinker, works at a women's shelter, has been accepted into a program for social workers.. what a (not) great example she's setting.. but I guess I'll give her props for recognizing she's not ready to settle down yet.. with luck she won't kill too many brain cells or be permantly stuck in the MTV world of "reality". I think if I was a parent, I'd be strongly suggesting that the kid get the degree FIRST and then think about these shows.. because some of them never get back into real life track of school, job..

I re-watched part of it and Nehemiah just thought she wanted him to advise her to stop drinking, but actually she wants someone to be a bodyguard while she just get drunker. If she survives, she'll be a "great" addition to a challenge.

She is just lucky Nehemiah didn't get killed by someone in that bar who thought he was the agressor. She put him in a really bad position & he did the right thing by getting away from there. I hope his roomates realize she was the problem.

Watching last night, I was thinking that none of these kids would know a real relationship if it bit them in the butt! They'd probably like the biting part but they go from one person to the next all in the span of a few days.

Really. She knows a guy for a nanosecond and just knows he'll treat her right.. if I believe her story, the boyfriend needed to go, but that isn't any reason to jump in bed with the first guy she meets on MTV. But heck, they really are just auditioning for the challenges and fast hookups are the name of the game there. I hope at least some of them (Nehemiah) don't blow the opportunity offered by their "job".

Ah well, you know it will repeat and repeat.. only two episodes so far and, uh, they flirt, drink, dance, drink in both and there is the obligatory fight (with medical followup and surgery promised next week) and the obligatory roomate on phone arguing, breaking up with and crying about boyfriend/girlfriend at home. and then they get to find out their job which actually sounds like it could be interesting and even educational. Oh yeah and the obligatory under the cover scene with obligatory roomies walking in scene.

Nehemiah is an <> to allow that drunk girl to lay that kind of responsibility at his feet. She wants to be able to blame everyone else on earth for whatever happens because she's a <>. I guess MTV will just keep casting loose cannons until someone actually kills or dies on camera. <QT>

Okay, I think I watch this show just so I can shake my head throughout it. I was laughing at Melinda saying she was going to take care of Danny. He couldn't have sex for a week but she didn't know if she could wait that long! Please! And then next week, she kisses Wes. I guess the week wasn't up yet!

LOL I'm enjoying all of your comments! I caught some of the first show (I think) over the weekend or last week and I wasn't sure how close to the beginning I was! I didn't see them actually meet one another for the first time, but I did see the bar fight and YIKES. Poor Danny. I can't remember any of their names other than his! He is a cutie, but I can see him getting yanked around bigtime. I also thought Nehemia was cool and that other girl was acting crazy after having asked him to watch out for her. I think I saw shows out of sequence, actually. The TV will be on and I'll see part of a show and then I come back in the room and another part of a show will be on which apparently happened prior to what I saw before. I doubt I'll last long with this one. I think I only watch one season completely since I never watched it in the early years. Didn't even know about it! Oh yeah....that's because I had MTV blocked for a few years because my oldest changed really bad from mommy's goody goody at the end of middle school and I was afraid "the world" was warping her. she's 24 now and the world (and I hope not too much of me!!! lol) have warped her to some degree I must say!

This group seems mostly desperate to jump into a hookup Rachel throws herself at Wes? while he throws himself at Johannah, while she throws herself at Danny, who pines after, Melinda, who throws herself at Danny, who, from the previews seems to be backing off, especially after she throws herself at Wes?.. all so they can get through a season, go on a challenge and hook up with Tanya or Mike or any number of other serial hookeruppers.

LOL Sea I love the analogy. I am a little ticked at Johanna, had she not done here little flip and trip, Danny wouldn't be having this surgery. I am surprised none of the cast didn't give her a hard time about it. She reminds me of an early Ruthie, and she definitely has the **must have all the attention mentality**. As far as the cast I agree Wes looks like Abe, I think Danny actually looks like Danny I think New Orleans, not sure which show but I will find it. And Mel is another Cameron.

LOL Seamonkey. It's funny cause it's true The whole Danny injury has me really involved in this show so far. I just can't believe that happened. I'm also surprised what happened that night hasn't been discussed more in the house. But even more so, I can't believe no one at the scene was arrested! Cops did show up. An assault took place. None of the bystanders could/would identify the guy? MTV couldn't replay the video for the cops right there? The fact that now Danny had to get screen shots of the video to bring to the police department and file a report is ridiculous. It should have already been done. I'm just hoping that we find out what ultimately happens. Tanya is going to have some stiff competition with Mel in upcoming RW/RR seasons.

I'm happy to see that in the previews Danny tells Melinda off for kissing Wes... GOOD, he's way to good for her... he's such a nice boy (seems to be) and she may not be a bad person, but she's a player and IMO only wants him cuz he's the hot guy on the scene right now... he needs her right now cuz of the surgery and that's great that she's there for him, but it's obvious this won't be a lasting "relationship" and it shouldn't be. I was touched by Danny's father, glad he was there for him. From some previews it seemed like Wes and Johanna do end up together, but who knows! Johanna is so beautiful but she's such an attention monger (how she was w/ that bartender) that it just shows her insecurity... I think this season will be wild and fun to watch but it definitely seems like a rainwreck waiting to happen...
