I was glad Sparkle didn't get eliminated either. On top of being such a CHARACTER he really seems to be a sweet, likeable guy. You could tell the other contestants were happy that he made it through.

I was a little disappointed that the other Josh got eliminated. And what was so spectacular about Robb's room? I thought the colors were hideous. Was the point of this exercise to make a statement as opposed to building a room? Maybe I just didn't get it. Same with the surfer dude's room. But would love to have him paint a mural somewhere in my house...LOL!

I wasn't crazy about those paper plate things on Kym's wall but I liked her colors. And I thought the Georgia woman's colors were very striking (black/red/white) and her design was well executed.

Will so far to me seems to be the "classiest" designer. He always seems to put together a room that people can actually live in.

I thought the colors in the room of the woman who got eliminated were horrible...I don't know if the showed worse on television or they really were that unattractive (of course beauty is subjective). I thought she was very nice but I wasn't unhappy to see her go.

So far Josh Sparkle is my favorite, and then Will and then Kym.

Robb is my least favorite which doesn't bode well for my taste because usually people like him seem to win.

I didn't dislike any of the rooms. I'm glad Josh didn't get eliminated. I'm guessing this challenge was more about creativity??

Roxi, in the instructions they were told the room did not need to function, it was simply for look and design.
I loved the Georgia gal's room. Was worried about Sparkle Josh too, but was not all that crazy about his wall color choice. LOVED his sconces!

Okay, I didn't understand that. Thanks for the update.

I didn't like Sparkle's color choices (thought the pink was the wrong hue) but thought his use of the bags as wall art was just as inventive as putting the coffee table on the wall.

I liked the gift bags and his wall sconces too.

Loved the red and black room. Loved the black and green room with the bamboo. The Swiss cross made it seem to me like a funky hospital. The guy who got eliminated, there was just too much jumbled stuff in the room. Wasn't thrilled with the sparkly room.

David & Alice still seem heads & shoulders above any of the contestants this season.

I would like to hear Sparkle Josh talk more! I'll just bet he is a hoot when he gets started -

I was worried about sparkle josh this week too!! Glad he made it through!! I agreed with all the judges this week...but I wasn't blown away by anything...the crashing wave thing was cool, in a full size room with complete artistic freedom it would've been awesome!!...

I'm glad someone heard in the instructions about the room not having to be functional b/c I missed that part and was really concerned about these designers (like what the hell were they thinkin!!!) :-)

I would think if there is a serious room design task next week that Surfer guy (Todd?) and Robb would really need to bring it...most of the other designers have shown that they can put together a cohesively designed room but whenever it is a "room" challenge Robb has been in the bottom 2 and so far surfer guy has designed a skateboard ramp and a crashing wave. I'm looking forward to seeing what comes next.

Didn't watch last season so I'm just missing out on who David and Alice are...I'm assuming from last season?

I love this show! The surfer dude cracks me up. It was funny when the judges (I think Vern) said that they couldn't wait to see him try a practical real-life house. I like Sparkle Josh, too!
I haven't got a favorite yet, though.

Sparkle Josh is from Hendersonville, a suburb of Nashville to the northeast of town. There are lots of entertainment folks in that area, so they are probably more used than most to far-out!

Sparkle seems like such a sweet guy. I also really liked the red /black room, Will and Kim's rooms.
The other Josh is a major babe and his room was interesting and definitely out of the box.

KEEP forgetting to add this comment - CRS syndrome kicking in -

Re clive's comment that Robb's room looked like a room in a hospital in Switzerland - he should have said in SWEDEN. Those are the colors of the Swedish flag - the Swiss flag is a red cross on a white background - the origin of the Red Cross insignia!

So sorry abou Josh, TTF. I really wanted him to win the whole thing. Can't believe that Slobb, err, Robb won the challenge -- fortunately, it'll take a miracle for him to win the top prize.

Uh-oh -- sorry for your loss, Tntitan. :-(

IMHO, that was one wild wedding reception room. Definitely not my taste at all, but the couple seemed to love it. I agreed w/their first elimination (Christine??)...she didn't take HALF of their suggestions at all! Princess theme was way toooo girly for the atmostphere they described!

Second elim. w/Josh kinda' surprised me. I thought they'd let Will go, especially when they started talking about personality for the show. However, I like all of the final 4 so will enjoy watching the final episodes. :-)
