The large older blonde woman seems like a case of arrested development. She's acting a lot like the young girls, not like a woman who is probably pushing 50, hard. Daniel gets my sympathy as he does seem so sincere. The little porn star seems to be a lost cause, although I do wish her well.

The "large blonde woman" is Brigitte Nielson. She was once married to Sylvester Stallone. She's a movie actress, but she hasn't been in that much lately. She was on the Surreal Life with Chyna Doll, and boy were they a couple of drunks on that show (we're talking falling down, drinking from a rubber chicken drunk). I'm not surprised to see them together here. OG, that's what addiction does to people: it arrests development. Their maturity kind of gets stuck at whatever age they started using. Once she sobers up, hopefully she'll grow up a little. She really does seem to want to get better for her kids. Mary Cary is a very sad case. It was really interesting to hear Dr. Drew describe how porn stars have a big problem with boundaries (no kidding!). I know from my own experience from my younger, crazy days--don't get me wrong, I wasn't anywhere near a porn star, though I did grow up in the age of "Free Love"--that after a while I realized that you give a little bit of yourself away every time you're intimate with someone. Can you imagine how empty someone who's been with so many differnt men on camera must feel? It's such an exploitative business. Did you see the tears in her eyes when she was talking about never wanting "3 penises inside [her] again"? That girl's in some serious pain. My heart goes out to her.

Don't forget about Daniel asking Dr. Drew if it was possible to get a positive for cocaine more than a year later- Dr. Drew said- I've never heard of that.

Yes, Cindor..that's one of the reasons things just don't seem quite right with me.

alot of reasons these folks (celebrities???) agree to do these reality shows is for camera time that they can't seem to get any other way. IMO

Which one of the Baldwins has the daughter Ireland that he left that rude message to on the phone? Is that Alex? What a messed up family!

Actually, it was the oldest brother, Alec (not Alex). Well, maybe I'm a sucker, but I hope that Daniel's sincere. The thing about the drug test was just normal addict denial, I thought. I really think he's trying and I hope he makes it.

Ok, I have watched one episode, and I am wondering how many I have missed. This afternoon I think I recorded one that i have not watched yet, how many episodes have aired already? I saw the one where Dr. Drew was telling the buy it wasn't about the phoneand asked the guy if he had checked out already.

Misty, I've seen three and get the feeling I've missed at least one. Is there any Baldwin who doesn't have to dominate whatever they are doing?? Sheesh. This show runs clips so many times you get lost wondering if that is a rehash or something from a future show, but in the show I watched today the Baldwin did leave and then as a preview Mary (I think) told several people that while he was still there he'd been sending pictures of himself to her when they texted on their undiscovered second cell phones/devices.

im not buying that the show is a detriment to Daniels sobriety.He admitted in an earlier episode that he use to wheel,deal and lie his way out of things just so he could go and use drugs.I think by leaving the rehab facility thats exactly what he intends to do.

Daniel was acting like a caged tiger trying to find anyway out of there. In other words, he was acting just like an addict. If he really left there I bet he went right back to using.

Yeah and he had 5-6 different reasons he "had to leave" which apparently he started setting up when he first arrived.

I know you guys don't like him, but my heart still goes out to Daniel. I could see how badly he wanted to get out of there, and any excuse was a good one. You could just feel his anxiety. Maybe the cameras were a distraction for him. I hope he gets himself into a real rehab program, for his own sake and for his family (wife and children). His texting pictures of himself . . . I'm confused, were they "intimate" pictures of himself? If so, that was totally inappropriate behavior, but not so much for an addict. I find it interesting that he would send that stuff to Mary, since she's the one with the biggest boundary issues. I really find this show fascinating. It's almost voyueristic.

I don't dislike Daniel at all. I just know he was acting like a true addict. The cameras don't bother him at all because he's an actor. Everything that came out of his mouth was some excuse to leave. He was jonesing.

Opheliasgrandma, I was shocked to discover that Brigitte Nielsen was only 44! I also thought that she had to be almost 50, if not in her mid fifties! Her lifestyle hasn't been kind to her at all.

Brigitte Nielsen is one of the few that was on this show that did remain clean. I seen her on a talk show a few weeks ago and she looked great. During Sureal life and Dr Drew show she did look hard. The talk show I seen her on ( It was Chelsys Lately) She looked awesome. Yeah the camera does add 15 pounds and ten years. Also, Brigitte did not wear any makeup during Dr Drews show. She was there to get better and be herself. I thought she was a train wreck on Sureal life and on her and Flavor Flaves show. She really impressed me on this show how she stepped into the mom role for the younger celebrities and was there for Jeff.
