Oops...that should have been "than Sanjaya had PLAYED for" not "paid for".

They really need to shuffle the teams. I can't recall if the first season was men vx women, but it seems grossly unfair. I think they set it up that way so that Heidi and spence would be on different teams, but now that they are gone, they need to change things up. I'd like to see Sanjaya win. I like his charity choice. I like the older Baldwin a lot too, and his charity choice.

So far, the immunity challenges have really favoured the men. Men have greater upper body strength than women, so having them hang puts the women at a big disadvantage.

Thanks Bee. "Spiritual fast" huh? Sorry, laughing my butt off at that.

LOL. Me too. I have little sympathy for someone who starves and dehydrates themselves on purpose while sweating it out in the jungle and then gets sick. It's not the time and place to put that kind of additional stress on your body. But it's good for drama, right?!

It was john salley that said that about the $5. I don't understand why they brought daniel in the first place, and now why heidi's sister? I bet you can get a gastric ulcer from fasting and being dehydrated. I wonder if spencer will still be "christian" when he goes back to the Hills show. he's the bad boy there.

Puppypaws, thanks for posting those links. I'll definitely be checking those out to see how the shows compare.

Fasting will not cause a gastric ulcer. Actually, fasting is BETTER for you if you have ulcers.

can they find gastric ulcers, or can it be "faked" - sorry they cry wolf way too many times- how many times do you hear your kid has a tummy ache and you roll your eyes - then one day you find out it is serious!!

Am surprised at how un-annoyed I am by Sanjaya since I couldn't stand the sight of him a couple of years ago. In fact he's kind of adorable. Of course with Speidi to compare him to, anyone would look good. Wish he would quit being Janice's slave and give her a good swift kick.

I had the same thought, Reader. The doc didn't say she had a gastric ulcer, he said maybe, because all the tests came back negative. I don't put anything past those two.

Funny you say that, Cindylou. I am surprised at how totally annoyed I am by Sanjaya. I really am. I don't know what it is, but he's bugging the jungle bugs out of me.

Costacat, fasting can cause a gastric ulcer. When the stomach or duodenum is empty, the acid has nothing to gnaw on except the lining of the stomach. An ulcer patient should eat several small meals a day to keep the acid in check. I think I am right about this.

I think she just caught something from her husband. He told that story about how he had been throwing up at the hotel.

So she had a stomach ache, blah blah blah. Did anyone else notice the number of huge bites Lou and Sanjaya had on their arms and bodies? They're the ones who are actually roughing it. With Speidi gone, now I can enjoy the rest.

Well, I've spent the last couple of hours watching the UK episodes on YouTube and I feel doubly cheated. Number one, their show has much better trials than ours. Clearly they have a bigger budget. They're actually doing stunts over there instead of just messing around with bugs and rats. Number two, they got a much better Janice than we did. She was all gung ho and actually winning some of the trials.

You know, I always look ahead to the DVR scheduling for the next day and finagle and move things around that conflict (rescheduling things that repeat episodes, prioritizing those that air an episode only once). This show was getting put on high priority as it airs each episode once, and I was having to move out other stuff to record a repeat. Then I realized what a hassle it was, and how I actually could care less about this show anymore. I'm so over the Speidie and Janice drama, and that's all this show cares about. I'm done, and this has gone off my DVR schedule for good. I'll just focus on SYTYCD, and drop by here from time to time and catch up on things through you all! I know, I know, let you do the hard work of watching this thing, and I'll reap the benifits of your posts.

You have to eat small meals because you already have ulcers. Fasting does not cause ulcers. There is no study to support this. Bee, don't feel alone. I thought I was the only one who wasn't thrilled with Sanjaya, so I never commented on him. And for those of you who think you're finally free of Heidi and Spencer, tonight's episode(s) will provide footage of their "isolation" and information on their "final fate." So you're not free yet! (This is according to the gossip section in my local paper.)

I think Sanjaya is sweet and cute. I noticed the two "Frangela" has a small bit part on the movie "Hes Just Not That Into You." I thought it a little odd that Fran left bc Angela wasnt there anymore.Did that thought not occur to her before she signed up for the gig?

Maybe they thought they were competing as one? I didn't know much about 'em before this show, but they cracked me up when they were riffing together (the bit when talking about the snake setting up a condo or Torrie's face was hilarious!).

Although I wasn't fond of his singing when he was on American Idol, I'm enjoying Sanjaya on this show. I think Frangela was clearly supposed to play as a team but that got messed up with all the Pratt hijinks. I am kind of disappointed though that Angela couldn't stick it out on her own. The rest of them don't have partners (well except the Baldwins).

Yeah, I think Frangela were a team too - that way there were equal numbers of males and females (with Frangela counting as one female) at the beginning. I think they split them when Speidi left as they only could find one quick replacement, Daniel Baldwin so they needed one more girl. They did say early on they could never do it without each other.

Did anybody besides me get the feeling that Stephen wasn't completely thrilled to see Daniel there?

I definitely got that same feeling Nerovh, I also thought it was interesting they are not playing for the same charity, and when Stephen was on celebrity apprentice he played for his mom's charity.
