Is anyone else watching this? It's great. It features Ty Murray (Bull Riding Legend and boyfriend to Jewel) as the trainer/coach Challengers are: Vanilla Ice Stephen Baldwin Leif Garrett Dan "Nitro" Clark Francesco Quinn "Rocket" Ismail Ultimate Fighter Josh Haynes X-Games motorcycle legend "Cowboy" Kenny Bartram Jonny "Fairplay" Dalton This is actually a funny show. Vanilla Ice is pretty good. Leif Garret quit the first day. Jewel showed them how to ride a mechanical bull. Steven Baldwin broke his wrist. Ty Murray is funny, even if he doesn't mean to be. Jewel sang on the first night "you were meant for me" And then Vanilla ice sang "Ice Ice Baby" It's on CMT. (you knew I'd watch this, it has cowboys in it and not to mention Justin McBride helped out on the first challenge)

I've watched a few times,it is pretty good.Ty Murray to me is just one of those people that seems so sincre.I wasn't surprised to see Leif quit.

Steve Baldwin broke his scapula (shoulder area) and a rib or two. If you haven't seen the third episode, I'll put the next injury in a spoiler box:
Spoiler Click below to view spoiler | Frankie Quinn got stepped on, badly, and broke his ribs so badly, he almost punctured a lung. he was very lucky. | I have mixed feelings about this show, given the injury level. I'm still watching tho!

I agree. I don't want to watch because of the injuries but I can't look away. It has been interesting how the different celebrities approach the whole thing. I was sure the Leif would quit on Day 1. He at least made it to Day 2

I'm still in awe that they actually came up with a 10-day reality series that involved riding bulls. Ten days! Sheesh, it takes more than that to learn to walk like a cowboy in those boots and not some citified sissypants. ;-P

Ten days is not much time at all. "Round here they have places that teach bull riding skills, and no one goes at that speed. Methinks they should have spent more time rehearsing getting out of the way when you fall off!

Hey they finally found something that intimidates Johnny Fairplay. I can't wait to see who gets injured on the next episode. ;D Actually, Steven Baldwin broke his collar bone and wrist.

Nick, according to Steven on the show, he broke the scapula and a rib. He may be intimidated and look like he's about the pee himself, but Johnny sure is kicking butt. Only one to get 8 seconds on the level 1 bull, then he did it on the level 2 bull (along with Josh). Frankie got really lucky with his injury. That could have been extremely serious. As he was making those creepy moaning noises, I was thinking that he probably didn't even know he was doing it. Like Rob said, lucky it wasn't his throat. Yikes.

The scapula is your shoulder blade. It attaches your collar bone (clavicle) to your upper arm bone (humerus). Just sayin'.

Hoot, Frankie is looking like his dad used to. Yum. That's just so unfair. So much yumminess all in one family... Ty seems like he's totally sweet but I wouldn't want to get him mad at me. He'd kick some butt. :-)

Memphis show on tonight. I think it's a repeat, but it's new to me and no one has commented on it yet. Therefore, it's new, lol. Frankie tried the PBR doc to see if there was any way he could ride. Best case -- spend three days in the hospital with a tube in his chest from the punctured lung. Worst case -- death. Frankie made the wise decision and didn't ride. I hope there will be another season and he comes back. He had a lot of potential. Nitro went 6.9 and was really pissed at himself. It was a good looking ride until he thought he was going to hit the fence and got distracted. Rocket was second. The stinkin' bull just spun him right off in 3.9. That bull gave him no chance whatsoever. Kenny came third. 4.4 seconds and got stepped on. Nearly got stomped in the nuts but got lucky and the other hoof got his right hand. He's okay. Josh hit 4.1 and very nearly got his head smashed. He fell under the bull and it's hind legs came down one on each side of his head. Scared Ty. Josh is planning to practice more and ride better. Rob got his leg stepped on and was hurting bad. 4.4 seconds. The bull got him right in the back of the knee. It wasn't pretty, unless you like bright red and bruising. Nothing broken or torn. Johnny says he's staying on. Psyching himself up -- funny to watch. Dang -- 7.9 seconds! The riders were yelling at him the hit the replay button. He did. Got it reviewed, the judges said 8.1. Johnny busted the 8. Awesome. At the end, Ty handed all the guys belt buckles. They earned them. Frankie is coming back if they give him a chance. Johnny started crying when Ty was talking about him.
