Anyway didn't like the ending at all but wasn't surprised (other than Kelly Ripa saying on her show early into this that her husband told her she'd be surprised by the ending. How was this surprising?). Speaking of which, what happened w/Mark Consuelos? I like him and he seemed to have vanished as host. And how weird not to have him in the finale. Lurk, maybe the surprise for Kelly was that Mark was no longer on the show! It was very odd how he did just seem to "disappear" somewhere mid-season. I'd watch the show with my mother every week and she's been an "All My Children" fan for years. She always liked Mark and was always asking "What happened to him on this show??" Brenda, I've been thinking the same thing. Why did I watch this every week?? Only answer I can come up with is summer filler on a Monday night. I knew all along what would probably happen and will it last?? Highly doubtful! I'm glad it's over. I've really enjoyed the show "Greek" which started in the same time slot several weeks ago. I've been dvr-ing that and watching this. Although now I may try "Fat March" next week and still continue to dvr "Greek" so I can watch it whenever I choose to.

I like Ketchup's idea of having a lady pick next time. They we don't have the whole bio-clock thing mucking it up. Plus, I'd like to see the older guys compete with the younger guys! What do we call them? Wolves and pups? LOL. Doubt we'll ever see it.

Just a snippet from wikepedia... Fall from grace The honeymoon period with the Australian public, however, did not last. 2004 proved a disastrous year in terms of his tennis career and public profile. After shouldering most of the blame for losing Australia's Davis Cup tie with Sweden with an unexpected below par performance, Philippoussis struggled through to the Wimbledon fourth round in June 2004. From Wimbledon in June until the end of the season in October, he failed to win a single ATP tennis match and finished with one of his lowest ever rankings since turning professional in 1994. In October 2004, a much publicized affair with Delta Goodrem had soured and seriously damaged his standing after newspapers alleged that he had dated Paris Hilton while with Goodrem. In March 2005, he became engaged to Miami-born actress and model Alexis Barbara. The Age reported the pair had split in July 2006, but Philippoussis has denied this to Australian tabloid New Idea. He confirmed to Sydney's Daily Telegraph on August 23, 2006, that he fired his father as his coach and rehired Peter McNamara in an attempt to revive his career.[2]

Angelicafairies, where are you? over at tne nbc.com/age_of_love site, someone said they thought that amanda looked like Joe Sakic. Amanda and Mark's only 1 on 1 date was the last day in Melbourne. I wonder if he picked her only because he knew Jen would handle the rejection a lot better. Wonder what Amanda thought of Jen and Marks date at the aquarium. I thought their date was amazing and very romantic.

The Age of Love star Mark Philippoussis chose "kitten" Amanda Salinas on the reality dating show's finale – but on Monday in Las Vegas the new couple reunited for the first time since the show wrapped in May. The tennis star and Salinas, 26, an assistant to a financial planner, watched the NBC show's final episode among a group of pals at the Planet Hollywood Hotel. "They were both really nervous to see each other but as soon as it happened they were great," a source close to Philippoussis tells PEOPLE. "Mark had a bunch of friends in town from Australia so he introduced her to them." On the show, Philippoussis was forced to choose between women in the 20s or 40s, who became affectionately known as the "kittens" and the "cougars". (See PEOPLE's video of the "cougars" in bikinis here.) Prior to revealing the winner, Philippoussis told PEOPLE, "Age doesn't come into play when it comes to relationships... I didn't go on the show to get married, but I found someone who I love hanging out with. I promised myself that if I found someone like that, I wouldn't rush into anything, and that's what I'm going to do." After the show's finale, Philippoussis and Salinas "had drinks at Heart Bar. After that, they went up to Mark’s suite to party," says the source. "They plan on staying in Vegas for the week together and do couple things."

Salinas, 26, an assistant to a financial planner I could be wrong but didn't they list her as a "hockey team dancer"?? Asst. to financial planner... she couldn't even make a salad or hold down a conversation!! ugh. I agree with whoever said "why did I watch this?!" LOL

Asst to a financial planner is nothing more than office staff, I speak from experience, although I prefer the term Executive Assistant, lol. I don't think they'll be together too long, she struck me as incredibly needy.

she was 26? thought she was younger. most asst to financial planners have their series 7, so not just a secretary. but i thought she was a hockey dancer too. btw..i did think she looked way more classy on the last night than Jen did.

I'm guessing she does not have her series 7. she was a nashville predator dancer last season. she must have gotten a new job. she lives in nashville and he in vegas. they got a 100 to 1 chance to make it.

Don't know what a series 7 is, I assume it is something in the States. In Canada anyone can assist, you just can't sell and advise. You just do everything but, without the commission! I've been the only staff support for a financial planner for ten years. I found Amanda very clingy and needy for having only just met the guy. I imagine he might want someone a little more independent.
