This started differently.. they had pairs in pods which of course surprised them all. They had to compete as pairs running around a little central core on smooth rocks, taking turns, then with stocking feet, then with bare feet, then both together, bare feet. At some point the fastest pairs "earned" their own pods and the others kept competing. Finally they were down to the slowest pair and then they competed with locks and combinations. Each time one found the right lock, they got to hang a weight on the jacket of the other person. Well this was a large guy and a girl pair and in the rock running, it seemed like he was the slowest one all along of all of them and thus he caused them to be in that final pairing, but with the locks he was way ahead and she finally pressed the button and left, so he got a pod. I was a little sad about that. Then they told them a little bit about each other, by number. So there is this dynamic where each of them except that last guy, met and worked with another player, but I don't know that they know the pod number of that person or not. Val is still the same old Val.. Oh and she was interested that so many of them seemed depressed almost right away so she let them each have a brief phone call home.. in some cases that helped, in some, not so much. They got their first "Ass Bars" to eat.

OK, reaching way back into the depths of my memory.....didn't v2.0 end by insinuating the winner was going to be held over to compete in v3.0? Or am I remembering a differend reality?

OK, this season is going to be fun. I don't think everyone got a phone call, only the two of them who ended up more bummed after their luxury item, instead of cheered up. No way I could have done that stool challenge, I don't think. I get so sore sitting for too long on a regular chair, let alone on Val's face, lol.

That was pretty brutal! Especially for the thin, toned people.. not much to pinch! That guy is more rounded, but I'm sure it still hurt.

Hmm they did say there would be extra clips online, but I haven't gone to look. The ep is Rats. (more to do with mousetraps) http://www.hulu.com/solitary http://www.foxreality.com/solitary3/ Even the official site mentions full episodes on hulu.com.

I think #9 has a high tolerance of pain because of his extra weight. Most of the others were pinching on muscle tissue whereas he was pinching on flesh. When it came to sitting uncomfortably he was in pain.

I think #9 has a high tolerance for pain and seems to enjoy it. He's going to be tough to crack.

I really hope the uber fan wins this. I really like him. But yes, #9 is a tough contender. I wouldn't last through one of their treatments!

Alright, this is killing me. The place I used to get episodes from no longer has them. I was able to find episodes 1 and 2 of this season but can't find 3 (with the rats) or the most recent one from this weekend. Canada isn't allowed to view episodes at Hulu... anyone have any thoughts where I can find these episodes? I love this show!

Yup. Doesn't exist. I used to be able to find the episodes free for download but no longer. Guess I'm SOL, that sucks.

my favorite part was when val told them to sit down and then she told us...i never said they couldn't get up. i was cracking up. i don't care for #9, hope he doesn't win. my favorite was the little asian girl but she had to leave.

It's on Itunes. You can either do a search for "Solitary" or go to the TV section, choose "Reality" and then choose "Solitary." They have all 3 seasons (well - the part of Season 3 we've seen so far). Whoops -- just saw you wanted free. Here it is on HULU. (Click Hulu)

She cannot access Hulu from Canada, though. Yeah the eps are available reasonably from itunes, right?

I'd pay for it if I could find it. I searched iTunes and came up empty handed. A general search for Solitary 3.0 gives me one Card Shark Solitaire app, and a refined search for "TV Show --> Solitary" gives me nothing at all. Is the iTunes content different in Canada than in the US? I notice that the #1 TV show download in my iTunes interface is Being Erica, a CBC drama. Maybe I'm just an idiot? I use itunes to put music on my iPod and nothing more.

Karen, if it's 2/7 episode you want, I have it on my DVR and can make you a tape if you want.

Thanks, Owl... it's everything except the first two of the season that I'm looking for. I can wait until the end of the season and pay for the disc and shipping if anyone is able to collect them for me.
