I would love to see some of the other members of Kiss though.

I have been a big fan of this show all summer, but last night I saw a very nasty side of Shannon and it may be all of the anger she has to swallow being the kind of woman GS says he likes instead of who she really is...

Was it the "shooting of the target"?

I know I could never be the allowing wife that she is. Goes way past my comfort zone.

It was the whole family portrait thing, she was quite rude and if looks could kill that photographer and her staff would be laid out!

She even admitted she doesn't want people in her house in a joking way but her behaviour was anything but funny....someone invited to her home by the other home owner should be treated with respect and with all she has I would expect her to be more gracious YMMV.

The shopping adventure too even tho it was supposed to be funny there is an underlying nastiness that I sensed which considering her position doesn't play well with me anyway. And I LIKE the girl!

Dahli, I sense that this show is very highly scripted. A lot of the stuff they do and say just doesn't ring true.

Baby, ITA. I tried a couple of episodes and there is nothing organic about anything going on. They should have let the family just be, as they have a very interesting dynamic. It could have been good tv.

Saw this by accident when flipping stations in the hotel. Sooo much better than Osbornes. I love the home movie bits.

Regarding the "fat farm". 900 calories? Who are they kidding? No wonder he was starving. He could have lost 5# over a long weekend on 1800 calories, no alcohol and regular exercise (the first 3 would have easily been water weight).

Of course the show is "scripted". Pretty much all "reality" shows are done that way now. The producers/writers set up a scenario and then film it. Cut and paste to make a story and voila!

I'll watch it again (if nothing else is on).

Caught Family Jewels for the first time tonight. Loved it!! Gene is such a normal guy and Shannon is so down to earth. They are both really great with their kids. I completely enjoyed watching it. Loved the clips of Gene with the dog, with Shannon, son & daughter. So cute!!!

Wow! I saw a preview last night with Gene going under the knife & it seems that him & Shannon were both going to get a little lift. Gene is about to go into his surgery (he has the "art work" inked in on his face) & Shannon shows up by his side not looking like she's going to go through with it & when Gene asks her, she tells him she can't have the surgery because she may be pregnant.

Shannon's face looks like she's had something done already.

I loved seeing Gene and Shannon at the health retreat. So funny how he got all the junk food and tv in his room. Funny watching them in the "relationship" seminar. And how disappointed he was at the 4.7 pounds. Oh my goodness!

Thanks Weenie ... I got caught up!

Okay, just watched the big season finale. Was Shannon pregnant or not? They never really said for sure. I enjoyed this show and will miss it. Wonder if they'll do a second season?

Me again. I just looked up Shannon's age on IMDB, and she's almost as old as I am! They list her DOB as March 1957. Yikes! She's 49! She sure doesn't look that old, but I'd say her eggs are a little past their expiration date.

All she said was there was a CHANCE she might be pregnant. I wonder if Gene went through with the facelift. He needs it.

He also needs a grownup haircut! His hair just looks silly at his age. (Looks pretty cute on Nick, though! )
