I noticed that the Rocket Scientists had a hard time figuring out if "Realist" was really a word. LOL, Alisons, the daughter came up with the word because she didn't want to use the name her mother thought of because she said she wasn't brilliant. I thought their names should have been Beauty and Brains. I really liked them.

I think the right people went home when the professor doesn't know if "realist" is a real word. I gagged on that.

now I was curious if the reaction heard on tv when they announced the "de=sashers" or "losers' - it seemed the tv cut to reactions were contrived - or am I just jaded on "reality" tv?!!

I watched parts of it again tonight and I agree it looks like she's had some work done; very tight skin on her face in places. When I watched tonight I kept getting the feeling she was high or on some kind of drug. It was the look in her eyes.

Does the daughter of the redheaded bombshells remind y'all of anyone? I swear she looks familiar, like she's been on another reality show or something.

Yep. She reminds me of someone who would annoy the crap out of me in about the first 5 minutes.

Another one that annoyed the crap outa me was the mother that kept going on about the hump in the nose of another mother. On and on and on....I was saying um....people that live in glass houses shouldn't throw stones.

Yep! That one too, Twinkie. I so wanted that team to be sent home instead of the one that was. UGH!

Good grief these women are just plain mean. The Red-head daughter freaks me out. And I don't want to sound unkind, but I don't think they are all that attractive. Especially to be making comments about their beauty being so much better than certain other teams. Oh well, I guess if they just cast nice, mature teams it would be boring. Am I seeing things or was it the Dreamgals mom shown in a yelling match with the Skin Deep mom in the preview for next week?

I've never seen too more scrunched up faces than on the Redheads when the judges are talking to them. They are so mean-spirited, I can't see anything attractive about them whatsoever. I hope they show the judges waking up and seeing the real deal on the next show.

LOL, Alisons. Maybe she was channeling Britney. I do hope this one was wearing panties though.

Yeah. It's kinda like a train wreck to me. I can't look away. Some of the pix were really bad. The judges liked the two blondes' pic, and I thought it looked totally washed out (white background, white dresses, blonde hair). I find it interesting that those who think they are nice aren't so much (mirror anyone?). Plus, I'm having a hard time remembering who's who. I remember some of 'em, but every now and again one pair will pop up and I'll be "who the heck is that again?" And they are allowed to STILL change their names? Was sad to see the two tomboys go. I thought they should've stayed, and the other pair (the one with "experience" should've gone). A pagent photo in a mini? And they weren't the only two with a full length photo... weren't they given explicit directions for headshots? At any rate, the two that managed to stay should've gone, and the tomboys should've been given another chance to learn what the others should've already known. And I about died when Shanna said "cut your own sashes". I knew that was gonna come sometime, but to do it to those two? So sad...

I noticed that several of the backgrounds that were NOT against the white background looked white - I think that that was just an effect of showing video on TV. In person it probably was a color. I'll have to rewatch it, but I think it was the people who shot in front of the blue background that had it come out that way. I thought that "Beauty is Skin Deep" should have been in the bottom two, but I think in reality shows they like to keep the troublemakers around awhile. The mother in that team goes out of her way to be confrontational. The logic of listening in on someone's private conversation and then going ballistic because you hear something negative about yourself boggles the mind. I think the Tomboys were eliminated more for their lack of confidence than anything else. It was obvious that they felt overwhelmed at the start, and I can't fault them for that, but they never seemed to be able to get past those feelings. The daughter half of the formerly named "Hot or Not" team is really gorgeous - but - I can totally see her as another out of control Hollywood starlet.

The redheaded daugther reminds me of someone, too, and it may be a longshot, but could it be the girl who plays Julie on Desperate Housewives? Same cleft in the chin... But the actress is much cuter than the "beauty queen."

You are totally right about that, Ilovethecoach. She does look like that actress, can't remember her name right now.

I'm sorry, any judge that thinks that red-head daughter's voice is pleasant must have been wearing ear-plugs. A very high-pitched voice is not necessarily a pleasant voice to listen to. And the mom's piano playing wasn't much better.

I thought Mom's piano playing was even worse than the daughter's singing. The daughter clearly has no volume control, and her song had no emotion to it.

I totally agree about the voice, I was not feeling that at all. This is like a train wreck that you can't look away from, but if all that is left is the mean group I think I will be able to look far far away!

<shudder> I don't see how someone who made my ears bleed, and the fillings in my teeth resonate painfully can win this so called talent contest. I thought they were the worst of the lot!

Ohmygawd, I am SO glad I am not the only one who thought the redheaded girl was screeching. Where was the melody? Where was the tone? I think even my cats went running for cover! (And I'm not even gonna mention the mom's horrible piano playing!) I really don't like those two. The mom has obviously had quite a bit of surgery, and I think the daughter has, too. Both of them scare me. On the plus side, it appears that they are in the bottom two next week (the stoopid clips from next week's show give you a hint as to who is desashing whom, although I'll need to see if that's what really happens next week since I forgot to pay attention last week). And yeah, as I said upthread... train wreck. Seriously.
