P.S. The previews show the Hinkins wife getting on the McMorris wife about saying she wouldn't vote to eliminate the Hinkins. All of the eliminated couples are back. Some are talking about how they tried to get rid of the Corlisses before...

I watched this show, this season, with half an ear and eye. But watched for real last night and I sorta am bummed that The Newberry's didn't make it to the finals. I found the other 2 couples a bit hard to take. Please, someone tell me that the Newberry's weren't the good "normal" couple. When watching half heatedly I thought I liked the McMorris' but last night they rubbed me the wrong way.

I was glad the McMorris's won. Now watch the Corliss's beat them in the final. That would be kind of funny since they were almost out so many times. I thought all the couples were pretty congenial towards one another.

I think it was a bunch of tv editing - and I definately think they are trying to "nice it up" by saying they want the "strongest couple in the end with them" I dont buy that for a moment - I completely agree, Reader. They voted their friends the Hinkins out because they figured, as the Newberrys did, that since the Corlisses were nommed every week, the couple that stood next to them in the F2 would win. At this point, I want the McMorrises to win; however, seeing how deadly against (could be editing) the McMorrises the Newberrys seem to be (at least him) who is to say if the evicted couples are allowed to talk he doesn't sway the votes toward the Corlisses? Also, what if the Hinkins vote against them? It's not a shoe-in for them quite yet, so that makes me nervous. They had to make a gameplay when they booted the Hinkins. I didn't think it was the wisest decision exactly for the reason the two women told Mrs. McMorris she and hubby would most likely go if they didn't win the comp.; however, it worked out for them. Lilfair, I saw the Newberrys in a different light last night. I was shocked when he said "NO WAY will the McMorrises win." Wow! I didn't know where that came from. Mrs. McMorris was right to be nervous when the gals told her she and hubby were very well liked, so they would be the strongest competition. If they hadn't won the comp, they would have gone home for sure. It would indeed be ironic if the Corlisses were to win the last comp, but I thought the prev. HG's voted for the winner. How does the final comp play into that?

how many couples were there to start with? An even number? Maybe the winner of the final comp gets to cancel out one of the votes? Does anyone remember this last year (or am I dreaming or confusing Survivor or some other show? BB?). I want the McMorris's to win as well, but I don't think it's a lock.

I said way up thread that I'd laugh if someone brought the Corlisses with 'em to the end and the Corlisses won. So far, anyone who's gone up against 'em has gone home. If the McMorrises thought they'd be the easiest team to beat, they may have another think coming.

Costa, you called it. The Corlisses won. It was a good episode, I enjoyed it. Mr. Corliss gave a really nice speech to the couples who'd been evicted.

Why, you already know, Costa....it was the Corlisses! You were right. I'm sooo upset. I didn't like her at all. I really wanted the McMorrises to win. They should have let the old people choose. The McMorrises might have been better off keeping the Hinkins and letting them win when there were 3 and letting them boot the Newberrys. I still think the Newberrys (esp. the husband) may have badmouthed the McMorrises before the voting. It was just too fake that the Corlisses were always up and then all of a sudden they are the winners, esp. when Mrs. Newberry told Mrs. McMorris she was a huge threat because everyone liked them. Did anyone see who the Ieungs voted for?

typical reality tv - when the couples are given the "instructions" it sure reminds you that they will all hold grudges!

Yeah, I thought the McMorrises keeping the Corlisses would be a mistake and I was right. Dumb move... anyone who was up against the Corlisses always went home. Ya think there was a pattern there? While I think the McMorrises were well-liked, I think people voted for the Corlisses because they'd overcome a lot to get to the final two. While Marlo Corliss wasn't my favorite (her personality was just too brash for me), I was glad they won. Actually, either of the final two couples was fine with me although I'd have preferred the Newberys to win.

After the "what is too much to spend" competition I really wanted the McMorrises to win. I figured they would spend the money wisely and wouldn't pay $400 for a pair of jeans! Not happy with the results at all. Boo.
