Mictay, I was tired and fell asleep last night. Who was eliminated? But you are right in that this is a funny show.

I like this show. I thought it was going to be stupid. Well, in many ways it is stupid, but it has redeeming features. I have to agree with the guy who said the scientific beauty test was ridiculous. I think the "test" was a joke perpetrated by the producers. I was surprised that anyone would push by someone with their arms full in a doorway and let the door close in their face. I am glad she lost.

I was glad she lost too. The test was part of the joke.

I loved this show and cant wait til the next one. Such huge egos, such delusions of grandeur, and such a comedown when their faults are pointed out! Love it. At the end when some guys came along with a big garbage can on wheels and dumped the losers big portrait into it, was so funny--just loved it.

I wasn't fond of the blond with the low "beauty test" score until she didn't hesitate to say to the guy with the coffee "Can I get that for you." She also didn't peek at the files. She is a keeper. (If we all chip in, maybe Jimmer will give us pictures and names.)

Cablejockey, I forgot about that garbage can thing at the end. It reminded of the show where they broke the losers plate and threw it in the fireplace and solemnly said "Dust to dust, ashes to ashes." That was a funny show too, anybody know its name?

I'll see what I can do with a banner. I didn't see much of the show but I caught the last five minutes. LOL - The guys coming along with the garbage can and dumping the portrait at the end was awfully funny. A perfect ending.

loved the garbage can!!!! i think i am really going to like the gorgeous black guy; gawd he's pretty! but also seems to really have depth to him. I also like the 'old guy'. I like the Texas beauty queen too. I wonder if the blonde chic is going to be someone who talks ugly but acts nice like opening the door ect.

Actually, there IS scientific proof that those with perfectly symmetrical features and bodies are considered to be "more attractive" than those without. It wasn't a joke. It was real. I think this show's redeeming quality is the hidden focus on the inside person. Hidaya-what's her name's not even holding the door open for the PA with the coffees? That was just plain rude. She was totally self-centered and I was glad to see her go. I can't believe any of these people didn't think the folders were a setup. In this day and age, especially with HIPAA, it would be illegal to leave any kind of personal and confidential MI just laying around for anyone to look at. Duh! And yeah, loved the dumping of the picture in the garbage can at the end. Suitable ending, for sure!

I watched - very interesting show. The girl who was eliminated last night was out of control. Her immaturity was stunning. I hope she sees herself on television and realizes how quickly she needs to get a grip on what beauty really is. Blech. I didn't add this to my Tivo, but I'll watch it when I catch it on.

I really enjoyed this show and the ending with the guys putting the picture in the garbage was priceless! Dogdoc, the shoe you're recalling is "Joe Schmoe" or something to that effect. I loved that show, it was so funny. I couldn't believe at the end when she denied looking at the others folders and only her own when she could see they had taped her?!!! Hello?!! The gig is up and you're busted! However that blonde is a bit odd in my opinion. How about the guy who was rude to her and said,"If I'm in a room, I don't want you in it it..." or something to that effect. Isn't that ugly behaviour? I thought it was rude. Just avoid her and keep it to yourself, she didn't pick on him.

My sat. dish broke Sun. and won't be fixed until Wed. AAARRRRGGGG!!! I'm going CRAZY without my TV, and my friend TNT (paybacks are wonderful!!) has taped some shows for me, but I forgot about this and Mama's Boys. Does anyone have this recorded on DVR that can send me a tape? I will love you forever!! ETA...I have WebTV so I can't watch it online.

I missed it too. Is it shown on a Canadian station? I can only find the promo in Youtube.

Thanks Miz, it was Joe Schmoe. I forgot the blond told the other guy not to be in a room with her. I think she thought she gave him a compliment (she liked his drum roll) and he didn't thank her. That set her off. The loser was complaining the whole way down the hall as she walked away with her suitcases.

I can't remember who was laughing when the "waiter" spilled the drinks all over everyone. I know some of them, including the one who left last nite, got very upset. We were in Parummp, Nevada with friends when a waiter spilled a whole tray of tall glasses full of ice tea on our table. It looked like a waterfall. We were hysterical laughing so hard but all 4 of us kept reassuring the poor guy that it was okay...he was mortified! That incident reminded me of that time and I didn't hear anyone say it was all right to this "waiter".

I saw some of the beginning and the very end. I fell asleep. I liked that the blond with the low beauty test score was so sensitive to the writing of one of the guys. She was actually crying, she was so touched by what he had written. The girl who lost, wow was she defensive at the end.

i happened to be watching the Tyra show yesterday (she's the exec prod along with Ashton Kutcher) and have Vanessa and Nole on. Vanessa said that all of them continued to deny it and got defensive when showed the footage.

There's two "local" girls on this show, so I was interested in seeing them. It's Monique and Ashley. Ashley must not be shown on her best behavior. (Small article below.) The other blonde with the blue eyes, which I'm sure are contacts, had her moments. (Wasn't there a scene when she was putting them in?) I was touched with how she cried when the guy read his writing to her. She also opened the door for the guy with the coffee. I thought the picture in the garbage was a riot, too. The one who left was just, "WOW." Here's the article. Yeah it sounds like Ashley got shown in a not so bad light. Ooops. (Rochester/New York) --- Two women from the Rochester area are featured on a new ABC reality show premiering 10 p.m. Monday on 13 WHAM. The ten contestants on "True Beauty" think they are being judged solely on their looks but, unbeknownst to them, the judges also evaluated them on their inner beauty. Monique Santiago of Honeoye Falls and Ashley Michaelson of Williamson are pursuing modeling careers in New York City. Each had different takes on the show. Santiago said, “The show gives me a lot of exposure and gives me an extra push to get more jobs.” Michaelson said, “The people who know me the best will know the true me. They won't show us in the best light, because you know, otherwise people wouldn't watch it.” True Beauty locals

This show had me laughing too. I couldn't believe that the girl who was dressed up like she was on Hee Haw (gingham shirt & shorts) didn't know how to wash a bowl or how much soap to use. I couldn't believe they told that one guy that he was like Brad Pitt. I don't find him remotely attractive and when he opens his mouth he goes downhill even further. He's the one who told the blonde he doesn't want her in the room with him. I agree Miz, he was just downright rude. Did she say/do anything to him before that moment to cause that reaction? I was flipping back and forth between this and the Fiesta Bowl.

Ohgoodgawd, I forgot about that bit... please tell me who doesn't know how to wash a bowl? Seriously? SERIOUSLY???? And the Brad Pitt guy, yeah, I agree. I didn't think he was all that good looking either. In fact, I'd say about half the guys and half the girls I wouldn't consider beautiful or handsome and likely wouldn't give 'em a second look. I think he got a twitchy on Ashley because at the beginning when she first showed up she seemed ill at ease, and made the comment about the drum roll. Which could've been taken for sarcasm, although I don't think it was. She just seemed awkward there, and he decided he didn't like her.
