Pamy, the first episode is always an hour, the rest 1/2 hour, then last ep is an hour. It's on "new" Saturdays at 8p eastern.

ok cool Thx!! 30 min is really short for a reality show! I think they could fill a whole hour.

Pamy, when you think of it as only being 16 minutes because of commercials and "previously on..." and "coming up..." and the intro stuff, then it's almost a waste of airtime. It should be an hour every time, especially when they have all these 'tasks' to do like catching pigs, cleaning horse stalls, trying to raise money on the street for St Judes.

New episode tonight. Yippee! I always skip the "coming up" stuff, Shel. To me it's like spoilers and also a waste of time. Don't show me what's "coming up," just show me the show. A lot of shows are doing this now. I guess they think we'll change the channel during the commercials, but I wonder what the percentage of people who record and skip the commercials is these days? Getting higher all the time, I would guess. We watch practically nothing "live." We record everything.

Babyjax - unless it's news or something we weren't planning to watch, we only watch dvr. I hate commercials.

I agree, hopefully over time they will stop that 'commingup' stuff. I love Justin, always have, never understood the backlash the industry gave him. I also enjoyed his movie with Kelly. I love sappy love stories and dancing. lol If they would have marketed that movie like HSM it would have done better. Can't wait for the next ep!

Pamy, I've always liked Justin too. I didn't like the movie too much but I like him.

The movie was awful. I bought it for $5 in the reduced bin at Target, and I still couldn't watch the whole thing. I do love Justin, though. I think he's actually very talented. He was just way overshadowed by Kelly Clarkson at the end.

I watched it with Dylan when he was young (6?) so I guess I watched and enjoyed like some cartoons that today I would think are awful.

Seems like Rich is mixing things up this year. I liked the cooking challenge, and it was fun to watch 'em on a scavenger-type hunt. It seems like there may be a premonition of a hookup... Tara and Grieco maybe? He was almost drooling watching her swimming, and as his confessional says, he wants a relationship.

No worries, Pamy! CMT repeats it about a million times during the week. You should be able to find a repeat.

Madelane, she was that Miss USA from a couple years ago caught drinking, doing drugs and kissing other girls. Instead of de-throning her, Donald Trump (owner of the pageant) let her keep her title if she went to rehab.

I don't know this for sure, but apparently she was a hot mess for a while, till she went into rehab. Now she's in the midst of trying to shiny up her tarnished image, thus she's on this show. Honestly, I think she's way out of her element, but I'm willing to be proven wrong!

Okay, this silly show made me cry when they were talking to the soldiers. And when Shiela E. pulled that guy up from the audience and called him a "soldier," I was screaming at the TV, "He's a sailor, not a soldier! He's in the Navy, for criminy's sake!" It was sweet, though. And that bugler at the beginning who was playing taps, did not have a military haircut. The little things bug me . . .

I cried watching it too. I would be a sobbing mess if I was there. I thought Sheila E was someone that I'd want to hang out with. She's so together and seems like she'd be such an understanding person.

I really like just about all of them. They seem to be pretty nice people, for the most part. George Clinton is a real guy! As much as I like him, I just keep thinking, "What is he doing there?" George Clinton? Country? Really??? I think he's only there for entertainment value.

Did Micky get to sing his song over again, after Mr. and Mrs. Bush came in? I hope so. I would have liked to see more of the "jam" they had after the show. Lot's of the sailors were playing with them. They could have done an hour of that.. I also saw in People mag. that Micky was with an all star rock band that played for one of the after parties for one of the award shows last week. Go Micky..

I could'nt imagine being locked up in that small bunkroom listening to George snore all night. He made me laugh, too. It seems like Justin really likes him.

They get to record and film a video, which she has and they had shown it after the final show.

I watched every ep of this show with a smile on my face. They all seemed to really bond together, their friendships and support was very touching. I loved all of them. I love all their songs. I wonder if they release all the songs, or some type of cd with all the songs on it. I loved Justin's and Taylor's songs the best but agreed Shelia won this with her performance. I am surprised Taylor's career didnt take off like Mariah's did. Taylor has an amazing voice, I could listen to her all day. I really thought Mickey's song sounded the most country, I thought it was a really catchy song. I would love to do a wkout routine to all those songs. Wish this show was longer, I really enjoyed it more than I thought I would. I looked forward to this more than Survivor/Race/etc. I hope this jumps starts a 2nd phase to all their careers.

I agree with everything you just said, Pamy. I liked Justin's song the best but I do think Sheila E won because of her performance. It was incredible. Mickey's did sound the most country. And I too could listen to Taylor sing all day. I think the neat thing was seeing how much they all supported each other and how they all were so kind with each other.

I was watching this last night when DH came in the room. He heard Tara sing her song and went, "Meh." Tara did not have the strongest voice (she would benefit from some training) but I really loved her song and the backstory. That she was up there on that stage at all just shows how far she has come. This was really a "feel good" show, much more so than most of the reality shows on TV. I loved everyone. I think some life-long friendships were formed in that house.

Sheila E really rocked the crowd on the finale so I'm not surprised she won. I think Mickey could cut a country record and people would immediately forget the Monkees. Taylor's voice is to die for. And George... George is George! I didn't think Justin, Tara, or Richard had a shot in heck to win and their performances kinda proved it to me. I also didn't think George would win, but again, George is George and you just hafta smile when he's around. This was a NICE group of people who really seemed to genuinely like and respect each other (including, eventually, Richard). BTW, I don't think the video was filmed yet. I think it was cuts of Sheila E during the competition wasn't it?
