I'm wondering if Meg and Adam are a real couple or if they just got together to do the show and try to win (then split) 1 mil. I have never seen anything that looks friendly to me.

Oh wait! The blonde couple - the girl looks like that real young one they had on BB4, forgot her name.

Juju, the girl looks just like Michelle (the underage X of Justin) from BB4. I knew she reminded me of someone, but couldn't put my finger on it. I'm rooting for breast implant/tatoo couple.

I was wondering if those 2 were brother and sister. She does look like Michelle and that other girl looks just like CHiara!

Did anyone see the previews for next week? It looks like Meg has a hard time with the spiders, like she did with the rats. I hope it is an elimintation round.

Next week is the finale, I beleive.

For me, this has been the most fun and interesting stretch of Fear Factor that I've seen. It makes a difference when you can get to know the players over an extended period of time.

Jim and Melissa, and James and Meghan would be the coolest to hang out with.

I've kind of grown a soft spot for Meg of the infamous Adam and Meg couple. I see instances where if she was paired with the right guy, she'd be veiwed a lot differently than she is now. Adam just doesn't deserve her, IMHO. These two will probably win the Million, though.

OMG!!!! Is anyone watching right now?? They have finally gone too far. They are locking the women into a box covered with over 500 crickets and TARANTULA(s). These women are getting hysterical@!

Oh,come on,it's not worse than eating eyeballs! LOL,this is good. Loved seeing Meg and Adam drive the car off the ramp. Now, it looks like she may just lose it all for them!

OK - was it my imagination that in the previews they showed Meg freaking out with spiders on her?

I wonder what kind of fight they had after they got eliminated?

So who won? NBC told TiVo it was 59 minutes long. I didn't see who won. LOL. I'm pretty sure it wasn't the blonds - but not positive.

I'm really sick of NBC's games with their times. I'm gonna just start boycotting everything NBC - it isn't worth it and most of their shows aren't very good anymore anyways.

Thanks for the info!!

Here's another reality TV similarity. I think the guy with the Tatoos could be Survivor Lex's brother.

Too bad for the blonds. I was really rooting for them. Glad they won at least something...

Too bad for the spider phobia girl too. That couple may not have been likable, but I felt bad for her in that spot. I also felt superior - that was one Fear Factor stunt I'd have no problem with. Heck, I'd do it for a lot less than a million too. Guess everyone had their phobias.

Gina, I read an article this past week which addressed the problem off all the networks getting wonky with their times. It's not just NBC. All the networks, including Fox, have been doing it this season. It's a real pain.

I wanted the couple that came in second to win. I thought they hadn't won any of the challenges at all. Did they finally win one of the later ones and I blinked?

Half the time NBC is lying about its times anyways. They say Law and Order starts at 9:59, but when I manually tell TiVo to start at 10:00 - it always catches the beginning anyway. Same for a lot of their other shows.

The trip to Russia included a ride in a MiG fighter plane which flies faster than the speed of sound -- breaks the sound barrier. I believe it's an older model aircraft. I'd like to experience that!

Didn't the MiGs they showed look scary? I just wondered when their last maintainence check was. LOL. Not sure I'd want to fly in them or not. I would love a trip to Russia - but I think I'd be more likely to try to sell the trip and keep the cash. Not sure how easy that is to do or not.

well at least the blonds won something...and you knew they were done when the final stunt involved swimming, as they really struggled with any swimming stunts. At least Adam and Meg didn't win...they were so obnoxious, and it was Meg who ended up stopping them..there was one stunt too many with animals crawling on them for her (remember, she quit a stunt ealier that involved things crawling on her, but it wasn't an elimination one)...A lot of people were rooting against them, so when she quit, it made the final stunt anti-climatic.

By the way, it's a 40 year annuity for the million dollar prize....

I didn't like them either but I could feel her pain - however - they did win alot of prizes so they should be proud that they did so well.
Megs bf was such an ass - he didn't comfort her at all - he didn't hold her until the very end - the poor girl looked like she might lose her mind and all he could do was shake his head.
I was also rooting for the blonde couple:-(

New Fear Factor tonight. Back to original formula, 3 guys, 3 girls, except it lasted an hour and nineteen minutes.

All I can say is OMG! Could Luis have BEEN any dreamier? What a bod, what a smile, what great teeth, what a great personality, what terrific cow intestine eating ability, what humility, what wonderful mini-motorcycle riding! Other than that, he was dogmeat. LOL.

But dogmeat for you would be a good thing, right?

What I want to know is why does the really disgusting part always have to come on when I'm eating dinner? Even when the show is on a weird night and goes 1 hour and 19 minutes. Still -- right in the middle of dinner. ack!

Suitsme, they had an article recently on how the show is doing well but not getting a lot of respect, and the producer said that the only thing the network has asked is not to use animal blood in the stunts anymore (last season in a gross stunts show, they had people searching for rings using their mouths in a huge tank of cows blood...it looked as bad as it sounds)

From a Child's Perspective

One afternoon while I was visiting my library, I noticed a
group of preschoolers gathered for story time.
The book they were reading was
THERE WAS AN OLD LADY WHO SWALLOWED A FLY.
After the librarian finished the first page, she asked the
children, "Do you think she'll die?"
"Nope," a little girl in the back said. "I saw this
last night on FEAR FACTOR."

A little late in replying to Danzdol's post...but a pre-schooler that watches Fear Factor??? Gotta wonder about the parental units discretion on that one.

Watched the Models this week. Nice eye candy, but the competition was a little weak.
