Scorpio - My sister and I discussed that at lunch today. We do not remember her ever talking about what a great guy her fiance is....didn't she tell Ron in a previous show that if she was not engaged she would like to be with him? And maybe it was editing but I thought it was horrible that she was so proud of the money he earns. Money is great and I would certainly love to have more of it but it is not a reason to be with someone. Very lonely for both parties involved.

I thought Traci asked him if he wanted her to change.

I really got a chuckle out of Andy Dick and Ron Jeremy talking at the end of the night - they both were left hanging. I wonder if Ron will ever get to see Traci's chest? I am also wondering how long it is going to take Traci to figure out that she can rent one of Ron's movies and see "it"....

Another good show. It was so good to see Rob loosen up and have a good time. I would have loved to see him sing!

I am a total sap! I got the tingles and nearly cried a bit when Rob started singing. All this time he has been rebelling against his past. And then to see him accept it and be proud of it was just so cool to watch.

He really does a charisma about him.

Rob's moment and Tammy's moment (at the bookstore) have been the best this season.

I think it was downright cruel to bring Tammy to a nudist resort. See, this is what I don't like about reality TV--those contrived situations intended to purposely upset someone. I felt so bad for her.

Of course the funny thing was, everyone else seemed to be as uncomfortable about the nudity as she was. They just went along with it. As much as people may think Tammy is a nut for having such strong religious beliefs, at least the woman has strength, integrity and stands by her beliefs.

Traci is so pathetic.

Did anyone notice Ron tries to ignore Trishelle as much as he can?

And Erik, once again, comes across as a really good guy.

Next week is the final episode. I'll miss this show.

I have to wait until Thursday to watch. They moved American Dreams from 8:00 to 9:00. I just have to know if the previews from last week showing Traci and Trishelle singing Ice Ice Baby really happened and was it done in a mean spirit? Or was it just editing?

Sherrie: Traci said they wanted to "honor" Rob by singing the song. Being the total ditzy chicks they are, Traci and Trishelle butchered the song. They didn't do it on purpose. I think Trishelle was drunk, Traci was tipsy and neither one can sing/rap. It all turned out well though. Erik gave a mic to Rob and Rob did part of the song. Everyone cheered and was totally celebrating Rob. It was cool.

That sounds great! Thank you! This show is really turning into a positive for Rob. I think that Eric has had a profound effect on him, don't you? During the first few episodes I will admit I thought Rob was a time bomb waiting to go off but it seems that he has worked through some demons.

I can't wait for Thursday.

While I initially felt that Erik shouldn't have given Rob the mic since he was obviously uncomfortable during the butchering of his song, I was really touched that he eventually did it....that was cool, right up there with Tammy at the gay bookstore.

I'm going to miss Erik, and I hope that a network snaps his crazy ass up for a sitcom or drama....he's a really cool guy!

Trishelle - I don't get her....honey, liquor is not the answer to everything. Dang, a good chunk of people had a crappy childhood or whatever, but drinking like a fish and kissing anything that moves doesn't make things better. Really pathetic young woman.

Traci - I wonder if her fiance is a couple years older than her, I doubt most men would put up with her flashy tease shtick.

Sucks that next week is the last episode.

I thought that Tammy was acting like she knew what the nudist resort was before the guy walked from behind the counter but maybe it was just editing. Was she behaving the way that they expected her to or the way that she really is? I don't know about that one but I'll give her the benefit of the doubt because she seems like a very nice person.
Trishelle is wierd, I mean she doesn't act like anything really fazes her. Is that because she is an alcholic or what? She seems to be fairly smart but she needs to check herself with that drinking habit. Yikes!
I thought Traci had a crush on Ron and she finally admitted it. He seems like a nice guy just eternally horny.
Traci is such a tease, I don't see her marriage lasting if it even happens.
Rob and Estrada are funny, I like them.

I don't know. I almost felt like I needed to shower after watching this show. I had to fast-forward through the volleyball game. Too many pixelated people! It just seemed so sleezy to me. I thought it was really slimy that they would put Tammy Faye in that situation, knowing how it would affect her. She was saying how sweet they were to pay for her hotel across the street, and I was thinking, "They'd damn well better!"

I don't consider myself a prude, but I just think most people look better with clothes on. I'm with Tammy Faye. The only naked man I want to see is my hubby. I just don't care to get that personal with everybody else.

That one older (naked) guy with the cigarette hanging from his mouth all the time made me want to vomit.

I have seen it in movies <uh, I was forced to watch once!>....anyhoo, it is a nice size, but I've always been more impressed by his other talent.

Okay, Puttergirl, I'll admit I was curious--but not enough to go rent one of his movies!

And SBG, sorry to be ignorant, but what is his other "talent?" Does it have anything to do with the protruding tongue on your smiley? ^^^ (Uh, oh! I think we're stepping into TMI territory!)

There has been a documentary about Ron Jeremy on HBO On Demand. It was pretty interesting.
He was a pretty good looking dude in "the day". I didn't know he was still making movies or has been up until recently. EEWWWW

And yes - he is pretty well hung but he's not John Holmes...

Luvmykitties is right the HBO documentary about Ron was interesting. He truly is a "real" guy. After seeing the documentary and then seeing him in this show, I find myself feeling neutral about him because he is exactly the same on the show as he was in the film. He is what he is.

I watched the Ron Jeremy documentary too. He seems like a pretty normal guy. I think that was why they said he did no well in porn. Other guys wanted to see a regular guy getting to have sex all the time.

I would be more curious about his other talent rather than his equipment. Nice guy, but he has definitely spent too much time eating whatever he wants over the past few decades.

Tammy Faye - I never would have thought that I would like her. She seems to be so nice. I always thought that she would be very intolerant, but she has a great following and lets people have their own beliefs, she just won't follow along if hers don't coincide.

Erik - gotta love that smile (twinkle)

Have you guys noticed Tammy always has something positive or encouraing to say no matter what the situaiton is or who it is? At first, it may come across as too "Mary Poppins"-ish, but after awhile you just wish you could be around someone who was always so kind.

I do love Tammy Faye. I just wish she'd lighten up on the mascara. She'd be sooooo much prettier. She really dresses cute for a lady of her age, too!

I think Tammy, Ron and Erik are coming off the best in this show. They have all been shown to be kind and considerate of their housemates. Ron gets a little sleazy sometimes (always wanting to see the girls' boobies! please--what is he, 12?), but he really does have a good heart.

I wonder what Traci's fiance thinks of her behavior on this show? Says a lot about his level of maturity if he's okay with her actions.

Someone needs to do an intervention for poor Trishelle! She may be cute now, but if she keeps hitting the booze she's going to look like she's 50 in a couple of years--not to mention what she's doing to her health! I love a glass of wine myself, but drinking herself into sloppy oblivion every night is going to take its toll.

For a short time in 1996 Tammy Faye had a talk show. I only saw it a couple of times. However, I was surprised to find that I liked her too.

Her co-host was Jim Bullock from an old 70's series, "Too Close For Comfort".

Jim is openly gay . They were quite the couple to be hosting together. That's when I first saw the true kindness of Tammy Faye (even though she was a bit wacky at times.)

A few years back I remember her doing some sort of photo shoot with this famous photographer. He has worked with famous people and his work is very well respected.

He tried to have her eye make-up toned down. But there was no way she would do it.

I heard her once say (on a talk show) that even her husband has not seeing her without her eye
make-up.

My guess is that she has no more eyelashes of her own. She just has 2-3 pair of eyelashes glued to her eyelid?? I can't imagine her having any eyelashes left of her own.

Anyway, she really does come across as a very sweet, caring and kind person.

Here's a picture of Tammy Faye Baker, Jim Baker and Jim J. Bullock around the time of their talk show.

thanks puttergirl! btw, how did you find that photo? i still haven't figured how people here find photos of people so quickly. "my way of doing it" is to go to google and type (for example)..."tammy faye, photo". This might work..but not always.

did you happen to see the show?

eta: regarding Ron Jeremy....i have to admit my curiousity is now peaked. i do want to see it...just once :>).

Any search engine will do, but don't put photo into the text like you have above. It will cause your search to be limited to sites where the word "photo" exists. I did a search for:
"tammy faye baker" + "jim bullock"
