Anyone going to watch?

December 29th, 10pm

When they first announced her show I was not interested at all. After seeing some of the previews, I decided to watch. Might be refreshing to not see Heidi and Spencer...yeah!

I think I need the change of scenery!

I'm going to try to watch, but Whitney's voice is kind of annoying. Very flat and nasally.

So, I'll see. :-)

Well I was good for the first show. But when Whitney was introduced to her new coworkers the one girl could barely turn away from her puter long enough to say hi. An they don't shake hands as an introduction? No one showed her where the potty was?

An why was Olivia sooo concerned that Jay wasn't at her party? It was cute how he showed up at the end.

Now the 2nd ep I had to turn off. I can't stand he say she say shit. So no idea if Jay is really dating this other girl or not.

Loved the show.
Whitney and Jay aren't exclusive so he really can date who he wants (As long as he's upfront about it) lol.
Olivia was way to concerned with Jay.
I like Jay & Whitney together they are HOT together

I like them together too if it's real. I may continue to watch to see him and Adam.

Does anyone think that Jay resembles a very cleaned up Justin Bobby ?
I liked the first two episodes. There seems to be a lot more fluid dialogue then on the Hills of late.

At least Whitney doesn't have the <100> look that Audrina and Heidi pull out all the time.

I don't understand why that model guy thought it was his business to get all up into Whitney's after only one "date".

And Mocha, I'm sure they showed her the potty and the break room. That's just totally not interesting enuf for TV! (Er, for most TV viewers!!! hehehehe)

Hard to say. Olivia's cousin (Nevan?) told her to invite Whitney everywhere. So she wouldn't be "sucked in" with the "downtown crowd." So it appears the only real rivalry is between uptown girls and downtown boyz! :-)

That Olivia does give some odd looks....and is definitely preoccupied with Jay. But that whole dinner party was weird. And though the party didn't seem like a lot of fun, it did seem a bit weird for them to leave as soon as Jay arrived.

I think Whitney would be better off kicking Jay to the curb with the other guy. She seems like such a nice, mature and together girl and neither seems to me to be....well, worthy.

i think alex would treat her better...much better.

Jay doesn't give off the <100> vibe that Spencer gives. I also don't see him making Whitney alienate her friends and family. An he's much hotter looking.

I like Jay. He's hot and seems to be a nice guy. I think Alex was just trying to stir things up because Whitney liked Jay over him. That's a little slimey in my book.

i don't think <100> or alienate, but i'm saying spencer rubs me the wrong way and jay does the same thing for me.

and i must be really weird because i do not find jay cute at all. the accent, yes...the rest, god no.

Missy! Omg, I swear I was thinking of JB when they were having dinner together. I saw it right away - Jay is this show's Justin Bobby.

Mocha, you always say exactly what I'm thinking. I don't think he has that <100> vibe like Spencer does. But he definitely matches Justin Bobby's moves, and even his physical appearance (let alone his actions), reminds me of JB.

Geez, guys, I thought I wouldn't like this show that much because Whitney stayed out of the drama so much on The Hills. I need "frenemies" etc. to keep me interested, you know? Whitney has been so quiet and simply a confidante to Lauren on The Hills, so I was kind of thinking this would just be a "Sex in the City" minus the drama.

But there's a ton of drama! So I'm looking forward to this season, and wondering if Olivia is going to be a frenemy to Whitney.

I hope that Whitney ditches Jay - seriously, and finds a boy who truly appreciates her. One Justin Bobby is enough for a lifetime.

ETA: I have no idea if I'm spelling "frenemies" right, but you guys know what I mean. :-)

I like Whitney and I like the show so far. Not so crazy about Jay only because he is staying so cool towards her and I think she is worth more than that, however I appreciated him for showing up at the dinner for her. I love that she can still go to her old boss and confide in her.

ha ha ha ha ha I thought the same a lot of you did regarding Jay. I must say I had high hopes for him because their chemistry is undeniable but was bummed about the rumor drama. I was excited to see their love story and did not expect any of this at all. The minute it happened I thought...."another Justin Bobby" LOL!!

I think though, this must have all happened within her first week there. Seems like he comes around towards the next episode. She did say on the finale that he was still in the picture.

I also LOVED that the long stares, cocked heads and facials were not there as much as on the Hills. There was actual dialogue..what a concept! LOL!

Whitney looks absolutely gorgeous onscreen.

Olivia, well, too bad she is so into everyone's else's business. She is a very pretty girl who makes herself ugly with her ,100> behavior.

Don't get the uptown/downtown stuff. Must be a NY thing? can a NYker enlighten us please? there is no such thing in South Florida so I don't get it... I thought the guy said "before she gets all caught up in the downtown "crap" " not "Crowd" ....which was it? hmmmmm

Anyway, I did like how Jay got up and faced Alex in the club instead of just ignoring him. I hope he gets over the h.s. " she's crowding my space" drama soon.

Do we know how she knows her roommate and how she ended up living there?

To me Jay does look a lil like JustinBobby but I always liked JustinBobby's looks. Even when he cleaned up a lil bit. But I love bad boys lol. But then again to me crap I don't know how to say this in words but I guess I take anything with this type of show with a grain of salt. If it's in the script then Whitney an Jay will work or they won't lol.

Don't you remember Billy Joel's song about uptown girls? There is a definite difference between up- and down-town.

I think it's a little early for Jay and Whitney to be exclusive. As of the second episode, hadn't she only been in town for two weeks? Meaning, Megs, I don't think he's cool towards her, I think they are still getting to know each other. And tellingly... he asks his pals what to do, they tell him, and he does the opposite (like showing up, albeit late, at Olivia's dinner party).

And FWIW, we don't really know how much time elapsed between Jay's arrival at the party and when the three of them left. It could've been an hour or more, yes?

I thought they left the party after he got there because it looked like they didn't even sit down again. I didn't pay a whole of attention so it could have been edited like that and more time elapsed.

And I will say that in Olivia's defense Whitney shows up at work and everyone seems to tell her way more than Olivia, who has been there. I guess that would tick me off a bit, too! And she was gracious about Whitney bringing Erin to the party....uninvited.

OK, I am reconsidering my Jay opinion. I like Jay's looks, too, and he does seem nice to her. And she is young.....she should probably date a few good looking bad boys, especially those with an accent. If she doesn't fall too hard too fast and he doesn't reciprocate her feelings. OK...even reconsidering that. Nothing wrong with a bit of relationship drama and a broken heart or two.
