Mameblanche--You should!!! Check your local listings. As far as I know it's only on on Monday's.

I just remembered something else funny; when Jonny was asked about why he had so many gold necklace's in his car and he said," Ya, I like to change it up a bit depending on my outfit." Then to us he says,"I didn't want to tell her the real reason, I needed some cash one day so was going to pawn them then forgot about them in the car." What a winner eh?! LOL

I was looking through a hotel magazine last night (they put them in the rooms) and the cover story was about the local Chippendales show (at the Rio). I turn to the page and VOILA - totally recognized Billy in the line up (that arm tattoo gave him away).

Gave me a fit of the giggles cause I had just watched that episode last night.

I don't think the guy who was on True Beauty had much of a future with the woman he ended up with... she's not his 'body type'?? Oh, she's too big for his taste @@

Updates on this week's couples, from ABC.com --

Nikki and Jonny have gone on a few dates and still keep in touch. Both of them loved the opportunity they were given, and glad they made a new friend all around.

From the same episode, Chelsea and Billy have seen each other a few times ("in the light") despite living in different cities. And although distance and jobs have kept them apart, they have become very close, speaking to each other on a weekly basis.

Billy actually really surprised me on Dating in the Dark. (I guess I shouldn't judge a reality show person by his/her appearance on a previous reality show...)

Nobody watched last night?

Was it just me or did you guys find the 'beach' theme ridiculous?!! I mean it's awkward enough in the dark as it is but then they had to sit in a blow up baby pool with like 2 inches of water that all the other couples sat in too?!! Gross. Not my idea of a nice date at all.

Also that Internet guy had NO CLUE how to talk/act on a date with a woman. Totally socially awkward.

I hope the other guy who had the 2 women interested lasts with her, they seemed like such a good fit; so many of the same interests.

The dark haired couple, nothing really to say; kinda boring.

ROFLOL Miz - they so lost viewers in this household with that pool set up - at first I thought it was the idea of the "nerd" looking dude - then I saw they all had to sit in the pool!!

The dark haired couple tho did seem like they would have things in common

Internet guy - with the 2 girls, the one girl I knew once she saw him there was no way she would ever date him!! As she sat in the piano room, I thought, well she isnt fooling me, just making a good show for tV- then she left, that surprised me, that she was honest enough to leave... or she figured out he would go to the other girl and she'd be "stood up"

Finally got to see about the last 20 min of it. It was okay. I think I have to sit through a whole ep to make a judgement call on it.

Update on this week's couples --

Jill & Brad



Jill and Brad are still dating, and even though the two live in different cities, they are making it work. The two feel very strongly about each other because of that intimate connection they built up in the Dark Room. Jill and Brad are a great example of how personality and an intimate connection is all two people need to fall in love.


Katie & Drew



Both Katy and Drew keep in touch via Facebook and relished the opportunity to "date in the dark."

Thanks for the update Jezzedout...not surprised about either.

It seems everyone who gets together is from other areas.

Happy about Jill and Brad! I think so far in the 2 seasons they are the only couple still together, but I was really hoping they would stick it out - they seem perfect for each other!

Jason in tonight's episode. Looks are in the eye of the beholders, but Jason is a model, etc. . . . Huh? I don't see it. I think Melanie had it right.

Agree with Colordeagua regarding Jason. Glad Melanie took the front door.

I guess Jason would make a good 'underwear' model, nice body, but he's not all that otherwise. I didn't like the way he used the 'strawberry' trick and then to top it off, did it AGAIN to the next women. Doesn't he 'get' that women talk? I think it was the episode before last where a guy got busted for kissing two women and ended up with nobody. lol

Kyle (I think that's his name??) did have a distinct voice. He also came off as a player.

I'm thinking the Chad (cowboy) and the curly haired woman may just have a chance!

At least he told the first girl that he had strawberries and whipped cream. The last thing I would want in the dark is for a guy to give me something to eat w/o telling me first what it is!

I wish they'd all go meet each other in the light. It's not like they have to get married! It's just one date!

Finally saw an ep from beginning to end AND it went the way I wanted it to go with the sweet, insecure gal getting the hunky guy and the smug, bitchy gal getting bupkis. Sweeeeet. ;) Although I felt sorry for the twins.

Ya, I thought Kayla was stuck up too. I felt like she only wanted him because the other gal wanted him. She seemed to be happy to cause the other gal pain by telling her they kissed.

I thougt the twins were rather socially awkward.

The blond Sunday School teacher sure was a chatterbox! She wouldn't let the guys get a word in edgewise! lol I was even saying 'be quiet for 1 second' so he can at the very least answer. She said she was a 'good listener' well maybe she is because she doesn't let them talk! lol

I felt like she only wanted him because the other gal wanted him.

ITA - she was a typical 'mean' girl. And what got me is that Kayla was the least pretty of the 3 women but she had the most (misplaced, haha) confidence.

So glad the guy wasn't shallow and went with the gal whose company he really enjoyed the most.

And I suppose the chatterbox will learn from her mistake(s) when she sees this ep. Once she gets over her embarrassment she'll probably become a better listener.

I found the awkwardness of the twins, kind of endearing and 'real'. Was surprised how down to earth the other guy was too. My initial judgment was that since he's a big bouncer, he's probably a sexist meathead, and yet he recognised that about himself and wanted to change. I found myself really rooting for him and so happy with his choice. She'll really appreciate him and their relationship, whereas the other gal found him a 'challenge' and would likely tire of him and seek other 'challenges' once they got together.

Mameblanche--Totally agree with your feelings about the bouncer, I too thought he would be a big 'meathead'. lol

I really hope they work out. I'll check if they've posted an update on them yet.

Here's the update posted on ABC's website:

Though Kahleel and Harrison dated for a while, the two have recently become just close friends. They both thought it was great that two very different personalities could come together and form something close in the "dark room."


Oh well, at least they gave it a 'go'.

Kahleel did get a little dig in. When she was walking out the front door with Harrison she turned a little toward the balcony and said, "Bye, Kayla."

That's the end of it for this summer.

Did anyone catch the "Storm" fella on "Keeping up with the kardasians" last episode? He still looks good but seriously Kris, you actually thought Storm was hitting on you? Hamming it up for the cameras maybe, but I wouldn't say hitting on you.
