Scorpio I caught a few minutes of her on Larry King the other nite. In addition to the weight loss she sounds like she has lost a few gazillion more brain cells. Scary.

I saw Anna on the Regis and Kelly (I think) yesterday...She sure does look stunning and slim, even tho I like her chubby too. She was always gorgeous....Wink, I agree with you, she seemed to lose a few more brain cells...but she was blaming it on no sleep from all the early morning stuff she is doing lately...lol

I'd never heard this expression before: "Dropping your kids off at the pool". It took me a few seconds to realize what he was referring to. That is one of the funniest things I've ever heard. Am I one of the last people on earth to hear this expression?

I only heard it a few years ago - for the first time on the Jamie and Danny show in LA. Jamie loves to say it. And recently I've heard Jessica say it on Newleyweds.

Sky...I didn't even realize that the "dropping your kids off at the pool" was an expression for anything else! LOL! I guess I do learn something new every day! I honestly thought maybe he was married and had kids and they just hadn't mentioned his wife and kids or shown them at all!

I'm loving this show more and more every week, I sure do hope they have a second one of these shows. Can't wait till the end though when Steve gets to tell Randi it was all a big set up, I want to see that look on her face.

"Dropping your kids off at the pool" made me remember a funny moment with my sister who died 2 yrs ago. We were hanging out at a sports bar one night and she went to the restroom, after a while she came back and I asked "Did you have to drop off a few friends at the pool?" And she said, "Yeah, except one of them was afraid to go down the water slide" I was ROFL! She was quite a funny girl! Zules, I think the oldest brother is creepy too. Something not quite right about him.

Surfgirl & Carrie--sorry about your siblings. My brother died 9 years ago during Christmas time. His funeral was Christmas Eve. Each Christmas does get better. Sorry--this a little bit off topic.

Why did you guys have to remind me about the Anna Nicole show!! I had successfully blocked it from my memory!! AAARGH!!! As for the family not having a clue what's going on.....my only question is: How could they have cameras IN the Coy household when Randi called and said she met a guy, and wants them to come down? Did cameras just knock on the door, and say "Hey do you mind if we film you in case you get a call from your daughter?" And how could a family think it is WORTHWHILE to film anything for TV that wasn't outlandish (like a spur of the moment engagement-slash-wedding). Thinking to herself: "Hey, these cameras just want to film me in case I get a call from my daughter.....oh look my daughter wants me to come meet her new boyfriend....yeah THAT'S great TV.....especially if they wait a year to get married......" DUH!! PS - I think the older brother is kind of hot in a dopey-jock sort of way....

Ok, now I get what "dropping the kids off at the pool" means. I had everybody at work trying to figure out what it meant. The answer will make a big splash when I tell them tomorrow.

Instead of #1 or #2, it is "did you pay the water bill" or "drop the kids off at the pool."

I like Randi's parents now. They were very supportive tonight. The siblings are being selfish. The show was more sad than funny tonight. I am glad the family only has to "suffer" two days. They are really unhappy. The finale should be great.

Randi's older brother, Pat, looks like a total (beep)hole. He may not be happy about this situation, you can't help but get the sense he is always that intense. Was there were a shot of him without a beer in his hand?

Maybe the siblings know and were told to make it hard on her.

Pat is being much more obnoxious than Steve could ever be. Randi's an adult and can make her own decisions. I can see her family having reservations about her marrying such a crude guy, but he doesn't seem dangerous or anything. They should express their concerns, and then support whatever decision she makes. If she wound up divorced, the marriage would be her mistake to make. The family shouldn't *telling* her what to do...especially not a sibling! The other two seem like followers. I think Mr. and Mrs. Coy are being pretty fair (Mrs. Coy in particular). Mr. Coy does need to develop a sense of humor, though. I thought the joke about Lincoln at the tuxedo shop was pretty funny.

The line I wrote: "Was there were a shot of him without a beer in his hand?" Was suppose to read: Was there ever a shot of him without a beer in his hand? Carrie92: Exactly!

I am just not buying the whole thing. I'm sure there must be more to this. Her family's reactions are so phony and so is Randi. I think some or all of them are in on the joke. If they weren't clued in in advance, they surely figured it out.

Her brother comes off as having a giant stick up his bottom. Given that we were provided a sneak peak of yet another big twist or surprise to come that Randi apparently is not aware of, I am hoping that he has been appropriately paid to behave like a crybaby about the whole thing. I am now joining those in the category of not believing that we are in possession of a full set of the facts.

Yesterday on "Good Day Live" the actor Steve was on, just good naturally talking about himself. The hosts were grilling him, what about Randi? He stated over and over again about her crying, her families reaction, all was "real" He compared it to a huge "practical joke" and some people dont like practical jokes, and Randi and her family seem to be in that category, he often changed the subject back to "me" "I'm a waiter, writer, and actor" he talked about the Hungry Man commercials... again the hosts would bring him back to the show, he was in no way embarrassed, quite the opposite, it was a practical joke, and I"m a "fun lovin guy" He talked about his wife (dated 5 years married 1 year) and they bothed laughed at the show. Randi's in a different place. I found it more interesting what wasnt said, because he couldnt speak to her feelings obviously. They asked about her losing her job, he didnt comment... I loved the Joe Schmo show, this is worse than a train wreck, when its obvious she doesnt have the background to stand up for herself and walk out!! All for money.... its a sad commentary

I read in a magazine (can't think of which one) that Randi lost her job as a catholic school teacher and her relationship with her family has really suffered from her appearance on the show. I try to put myself in their place and I just can't imagine holding a grudge.... or not supporting my daughter/sisters decision to get married. Unless of course she indicated that she wasn't sure, was being pressured, ect..... otherwise it's HER life!

Did you notice how quick we went from 36 hours until the wedding to 18 hours? I think the producers realized that they may have gone too far with some of the family members and just let everyone chill out. There wasn't much intermixing between the families except the rehearsal. After all, if they hopped a plane the whole thing would have been a waste of money, They must have really applied pressure to keep the Coy kids around. The coming attractions make it look like the kids will not show up at the wedding and Randi loses. But I'm sure FOX will give her the money anyway. They have it budgeted. If I was the family, I'd be relieved and laugh the thing off. I don't think they could be that mad at her because they obviously signed release forms and got paid good bucks so that the show could air. It might be that Randi is mad at them for not trusting her and supporting her. After all, it was a reality show and she kept telling them to trust her and to just bear with it. That older brother is just an idiot. I hate to stereotype people without knowing them, but... naw, I'm not going there.

I can only hope that Pat sees how much of a jerk he came across as on the show, and feels appropriately remorseful. Yeah, they are having the biggest April Fool's trick played on 'em. Still, it is NOT his decision to make and he has no business being such an idiot about things. If RANDI is happy, that should be all that matters to him. I am really glad her folks came to their senses and decided to support her, even though they don't necessarily like her decision. But her siblings? A piece of work. Raise your hand if you are ever so glad you are not part of THAT family! Based on how Randi's siblings have been acting, I no longer feel sorry for them, for having this prank played out on national TV. They act like self-involved children, and that's exactly how they are being shown. On the plus side, I think Randi is finally starting to act a bit more real about this whole thing. Although I did think she might've blown it when she said "bear with me, just bear with me" (like, why would someone need to "bear" with her if she was madly in love and truly wanting to marry Steve?).

I still truly believe that not only Steve & Steve's "family" but more importantly, Randi's ENTIRE family are in on the joke!!! I would bet that Randi is the only one not aware of what's really going on & I think that will be the twist at the wedding!!!! JMOP.
