Do I really need a reason to not particularly like someone? The Corlisses are just a couple I'm not fond of. It may be because of the wife, but that's just how I feel.

I know what you mean Costa. That's how I am with the Newberry's and I just can't figure out why.

I like the Corlisses (as well as the McMorris couple). The Corlisses prove the old adage, "You can't judge a book by its cover."

His tats aren't what bother me. In fact, I kinda like him a bit. But I don't like her at all and I don't like them as a couple. That said I hope the catty Hinkins go next week!

I hope the Hinkins GO. They remind me of that couple from last year. The wife looked like Barbie and the husband had this big, bright smile, very cute. He was an airline pilot and they were only married a short time. They came in 3rd, I think. Anyway, the Hinkins are kind of like them, in my mind, and I disliked them a lot. I just hope anyone but the Hinkins wins this thing. Oh, and I don't mind the Corliss's, either.

yes, it's okay to just not like anyone ~ i was just curious since you seemed pretty adamant about your dislike. like i said, i don't like the wife either, and i agree they're not a strong couple by any means. but i think everyone seems to agree on most of the other couples. i'm actually enjoying this show more than i expected to!

I finally had a chance to watch this weeks episode and nearly died laughing at Mr. Corlisse when he called his wife both a 'floozy' and a 'hooker' in one sentence! lol I too am going to miss the Ieng's. They're so funny! Loved them packing their car and how the host joked it took 2 days. lol I also thought the host was funny when he told the audience after the breakfast challenge,"Just between you and I and I'm no doctor but I think Mrs. Hinkin's has a tape worm!" lol I really enjoy this host, he cracks me up. Also the week before he was talking to those kids about marriage, I nearly choked on my toast! Did he really say those things?!! LOL

I don't like the Hinkins either. bummed about the couple who went home this week, they were one of my favorites. I think I'm pulling for McMorris now. So we know how many more weeks of this show there are?

I think the host of this show is an absolute riot. Have I never seen him before in my vast reality t.v. experience? Good lord he's funny. I love the back and forth between the McMorrises and also don't care for the Hinkins - they are disturbingly cheerful with an element of evilness lurking somewhere in there . It's kind of refreshing to watch reality t.v. that's not totally backstabbing and bitchiness (not that there's anything wrong with that).

Smokey, I wonder if that couple is still together. It was very uncomfortable to watch when her dad came to visit. she was going to be a doctor or lawyer or something and married this guy she had known breifly. I dont think it will last

Lurkin, I wish I could remember their name. I thought I read that shortly after the show, they split up, but I am not sure on that. The wife definitely controlled the relationship. Remember how he would say something and then realize he was going to get her wrath? But like Cindylou said, they were very cheerful and all smiles on the outside, but you could feel the other stuff churning under the surface. I love this host, too. He's great. His voice is familiar. I remember wondering when I saw him on the first season, just where he'd been and what he'd done because he has great humor and a lot of appeal.

Smokey, I don't remember which couple you're talking about, but last years couples were The Moutras, the Holmes, Freises, Krashins, Woodwards, Bajways, and Jacobis. Hope this helps!

Oh, wow, thanks Gumby! I just googled their name and found them. They are the Freises, Cody and Dawn. I remember reading rumors that they split up not long after their show as over.

I really liked tonight's challenge with the couples designing a room. I thought they all did fairly well, but I really liked the McMorris' room. The Newberry's won the challenge. It really looked like the McMorris' would go home tonight, but it was the Hinkins' that were finally sent on their way. I don't think she took it very well and she confronted Mrs. McMorris about her vote. Next week looks a little tense.

Now we finally get to see who might be the behind the scenes orchestrators. It could be the Newberrys. They tell the Hinkins they will be safe if they vote for the McMorrises; however, it seems that the Hinkins and the McMorrises may have made a pact they wouldn't vote for each other (which is how the Hinkins stayed safe before.) However, the McMorrisses are talking to the Corlisses while the Newberrys ask the Hinkins to have a convo with them. I'm guessing the McMorrises and the Corlisses both voted for the Hinkins and the Hinkins voted for the Corlisses instead of the McMorrises as they were asked. It seemed that either the Newberrys wanted the McMorrises out or they were setting up the Hinkins to get the boot. I'm just not sure yet. Underneath all this, I think the Newberrys/Corlisses have a pact and they will boot the McMorrises next week, so the McMorrises were very foolish to be led astray and vote for the Hinkins. The McMorrises say they want to be against the strongest team @ the end; whereas the Newberrys say they want to face the Corlisses. I think they feel they can beat the Corlisses. I feel bad for the McMorrises and wish they would have voted the Corlisses out tonight. Then, they and the Hinkins would be in control. Even though some of us thought the Hinkins were the devious ones, I'm not sure that's the case anymore. I'm not liking the Corliss wife anymore and really wanted them to go tonight.

You could be right Cricket. I never thought of the Newberry's as the manipulators, but you made some really good points. They have never been one of my favorites, and I couldn't figure out why. I'm hoping the McMorris' win the final immunity next week and take the Corlisses with them to the end.

I have stayed out of the thread because the majority of you thought that it was the Hinkins and I never did. I have always thought that it was editing. That it is the obvious choice to make the sweet looking Mormon girl deep down the evil one. I don't have proof so I didn't come and debate it in here. But, my gut has always told me that it was really not them running the game.

I was sure the McMorrisses were going home last night, too, mostly because I really want them to win. They are such a great couple. I wonder whether the convo with the Hinkens couple will effect them--make them look shady to the other contestants. Hope not.

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 - and is it the Corlisses that were in the bottom 2 all but 1 week? why is that? Is that why the other 2 couples would rather stand by the Corlisses than the Hinkins? the alliances in the reality world get weird!! They all want to take a page from survivor! (in which they are the manipulators and they are the ultimate winners!)

I still think Sarin had something to do with things. I don't think she's evil, but she always started the talking against one or another couple. At any rate, I was glad to see the Hinkins finally go. Sarin was getting on my last nerve. I thought she was being fake sweet, and her reaction when they got eliminated last night proved it (to me). If I were the Newberys, I wouldn't want to be up against the Corlisses at the end. Everyone who has been in the bottom 2 against them has gone home. I wouldn't take that chance! I thought at first the McMorrises would go, but then realized there was TOO MUCH talk about it amongst the others and so it was typical misdirection. That was when I thought it might actually be the Hinkins finally. Of the three couples left, I like them all. I think I like the McMorrises best, followed by the Newberys then the Corlisses. (She still grates on me but I love him!)

Gumby, I could have it all wrong, but why did the Newberrys tell the Hinkins they would be safe if they voted for the McMorrises? That seemed like some real gameplaying on their part. I also don't understand why the Newberrys said they wanted to be with the Corlisses at the end. Perhaps they think since the Corlisses get nommed every week, they (the Newberrys) would be a shoe-in for the win. I don't think so. Please get immunity next week McMorrises. Do the evicted couples vote for the final couple or do the final two have a competition?

Ahhh, they do, eh? Thanks, Gumby. Wow, I feel even worse now that the McMorrises were talked into or decided to vote the Hinkins out. If they make it to F2, will the now have their vote? No wonder the Newberrys want to be up against the Corlisses. They've been nommed 4 times, so it would figure anyone up against them would win. I don't know if this was brought to the McMorrises attention to get them to vote the Hinkins off or not. I'd love to know after the game is over.

I haven't watched last night's show yet, but it looks like the McMorrises won the challenge and they picked the Corlisses to go to the finale with them. Mr. Newberry gave a very nice good bye speech (yes, I jumped to the end because I thought last night was the finale... silly me not to expect they'd stretch it out another week!).
