I'm wondering if John Rich decided to do this show to highlight himself as a single entity since Big Kenny will be out for a while for physical rehab.

I'm still confused as to why Maureen is on this show. She didn't sing with the group in the last episode. Is she a singer, or did she just do this as a challenge or to get on TV or something?

Mo has always wanted to be a country singer (she said that anyway). She had an album out either during the Brady-days or soon after. I think she has confidence issues, especially since she is surrounded by "real" singers who have a lot of experience.

Ohhh, thanks, Shel. I didn't realize she made an album before.

Wowee wow wow, how hilarious was Bobby Brown almost peeing on Dee Snider?! I can't believe we aren't talking about this show more. Dee's commentary about it was the funniest thing I have seen in a long time. And Carnie telling the other ladies later, Bobby Brown farted in my face! Bobby Brown!

I had no idea John Rich was such a babe, he is indeed yummy.The name "Big & Rich" cracks me up and even though I know not one song by this duo I love the name. It's catchy,sassy and slightly in your face.

When Bobby said he had a problem with sleepwalking I thought, no that's not sleepwalking that's a drunken blackout. I bet it never happens when he's sober.

Mara, you should listen to them, especially if you like the old southern rock stuff (Skynard, Eagles, etc). Big and Rich are awesome. :-)

I will try to find them online Shel. I am not sure if I truly know what Southern Rock is, does it include ZZ Top? They rock. My tastes are primarily R& B although I do like Willie Nelson, Reba, Lee Ann Rimes and that guy cute guy Gary from Rascal Flatts < pant pant > My hair dresser calls them Rascal Fat........he is bad.

38 Special was my very first country rock group..Gosh, I still love them. My other one from years past is Southern Pacific. If you ever saw that goofy Clint Eastwood movie "Pink Cadillac", So-Pac did most the soundtrack, and the best song was "Any Way the Wind Blows"". ok, back to the show....Bobby is such a compassionate guy. He was wonderful with the family who almost lost their child. I hope he can straighten his act someday, because I think he is truly a good person inside.

I saw an interview this morning with Maureen McCormack and Matt Lauer (saw it on MSNBC, but must've been from the Today show). I've always loved Maureen. She says she and Bobby struck up a real friendship on the show. She seemed so sweet and down to earth on Celebrity Fit Club. Carney Wilson was also on CFC a while back, trying to lose that baby weight. I guess they're showing reruns, cause I set up my DVR to record this and episode 1 shows on Friday night. Can't wait to catch up!

I saw Maureen with Matt on the Today show - I've not seen this show, but they kept showing clips of Maureen and Bobby Brown, and she talked about how they struck up a friendship - Matt thought it was so unlikely - and Maureen said she didnt know Bobby Brown before this show... she also said she always wanted to do a country album - and she was the only one that had no stage experience and she froze the first time she had to sing in front of thousands.. she came across and sincere and geniune - and after watching her drama on the Dr Phil show with her dad disowning her and her brother making sure she had no relationship with her father - truly bizarre... I think she was also saying she has a book coming out in Oct.

Reader, Maureen actually did record a country album. I think Matt said it was in 1995? I remember reading that she had done so. She recorded, but never toured, so she's not used to singing in an arena in front of thousands of people.

This page has all of Maureen's songs from her album. Link Not so great, but it's interesting to listen to knowing it's her.

Wow, Rich was really tough on their demos, today. Especially Diana's. But you know what? I think he likes her best. ` I can't believe the finale is next week already. I wish these would have all been one hour shows. I have enjoyed it a lot.

I only got to see the last 4 demos. Bobby's was really good. I didn't understand why he liked Mo's. Carnie was pretty good. I don't understand why he jumped into Diana so hard. Her demo sounded so like so many female country songs that are both pop & country. Diana is a strong young woman - I hope she goes solid country & blows him away next wk.

I think he liked the "emotion" in Mo's. He did say Diana was a good singer, but she was singing in a pop style (too many flourishes). I think he likes her and was trying to push her. As Carney said, he was being really honest to help her improve, even though it hurt. I liked how Carney and Dee saw how hurt she was and tried to comfort her. We'll see how she ends up.

Found someone who dvr'd the first 2 episodes - she may become a country fan yet!! ;) The episode I caught was where they were to pick out the "country" clothes - and they highlighted Carnie Wilson having to buy in the men's department, etc... all I kept doing was "WYNONA JUDD!!" Seriously Wy wears country, and she is a BBW!!

I just caught up with this show on VH1 today. I was in tears when they were at the hospital.
