Hamsterlady: I think Jan meant we don't get to "see it all"--we don't see the behind-the-scenes stuff--so we don't why decisions were made as they were.

Oh, gotcha Scorpio! <was having a brunette moment :-)>

BTW, I like this show even better than I did last week. I can't wait for next week's show.

Well, I was sure disappointed when I flipped to the channel and they pre-empted it with local shows that ran not only for this hour, but into the next. I was so ticked off! They better show it sometime! I'm sure the station got a lot of complaints since it was a 2-hr thing of all the kids who were in musicals here and if you didn't have a kid in it or your school wasn't involved, I doubt you'd be all that interested.

Well, at least I know Dan didn't make it and I never noticed "Larissa" from Avg. Joe 2. Still - I hope they show it sometime.

I wasn't going to watch this show until I got a frantic phone call from one of my friends saying I have to turn on this show and see who's on it. Oh my god!!! It's another friend's ex Santino (he was the last guy picked for the top 20) I was cracking up! I was telling her there not showing him enough he's not gonna make the cut....and then to my surprise he did! He is hot though, what did I expect. It was funny when the casting directors got to his picture and the one woman said Santino..sexy, because every time my one girlfriend saw him she would call him Sexy Santino, never just Santino, but "Sexy Santino"

I can say he truly is a nice guy. My friend who dated him met him in a coffee shop and dated him for 2 months before she found out he was still in high school (we had graduated the year before). It was the running joke for a while and of course we had to poke fun at her for having to go to prom. They dated for 3 years and at the end it turned in to one of those relationships where they break up, get back together, break up,etc....till finally it got to the point that we didn't wan't to hear about it anymore, JUST BREAK UP ALREADY! They finally did and were actually able to remain friends.

I know he has been trying to act for years. When my friend and him dated, I know they took acting classes together. I believe he did a pilot that never made it to air.

I know they say his and his friend Matt (who didn't make the cut) are broker trainees, but that made me laugh a little. I have known Santino to be a hairdresser (a good one at that) and a bartender at gay and straight clubs. I bring gay clubs separately because I know some male strippers who work at the gay clubs and what's funny they ALL end up trying to be stock brokers (or get rich sugardaddy's) I don't think Santino ever stripped, he only did bartending as far as I know. Now his friend Matt, I bet he was a stripper!

Well just when I decided not to add another reality show with Big Brother and the Amazing Race coming up, now you know I'll have to be watching now!

LOL Hamster, I was having a real brunette moment myself. I had no idea what you were asking. I didn't even realize that what I had written could be taken that way.(ie "see it all". I did mean we don't see the behind the scenes stuff. Thanks Scorpio for helping out :-)) We get so used to phrases that we never stop to take a look at the real meaning of the words, I guess!!!!

Thanks for the inside info on Santino, Frog. I will have to keep my eyes on him:-):-)

Interesting stuff. I like this show. Viviana is a DRAMA QUEEN!! I was surprised her partner, Reggie did not make the cut. I'll be watching this one.

LOL I can see we are all HOOKED!

Aw, they kept the Drama queen for.......well, DRAMA! viviana has something special on camera but no more than some of the other women who were discarded.

What I like about his show so far is that it is about ACTING and modeling etc. These people are there because they want to be a TV/ Movie star. It is appropriate casting...unlike something like Amazing Race which I feel SHOULDNT be casted with wannabees.

Anyways, Santiago sure reminds me of a Schwarzenegger type even though his acting wasnt very good. Put him with the right woman and it could be a great movie.

I liked how there was some differences between how the couples used the script during the competition. Some of the couples had the Woman playing the Dominant part with the male playing the submissive. I found it very interesting and frankly, it is what got the talented guy with Viviana ELIMINATED in my opinion!

This show has the potential to be so good, but they just fall back on the typical--they put most of the focus on the one person who causes the most problems.

I'm tired (already) of Viviana--her breasts, her nipples, her outbursts, etc, etc. There are some people who made it through tonight who got practically no camera time at all. And judging by next week's preview, it just gets worse.

And call me an idealist, but these people have the opportunity to learn a lot from this experience. But it's totally diminished because Viviana sucks up all the energy and attention.

I can't recall seeing much of Corinne this week. We didn't see her at the salon (afterwards it didn't look like they changed anything about her look). And we didn't see her rehersing nor did we see her scene (who did she partner with - did he make the final cut)????

Is she gonna be the one to quit next week and that is why we didn't see her performance nor hear any spoken words from her this week?

Someone please give Viviana a spanish-language tv soap contract and get her out of this competition.

Ok, when do they vote someone off the island, because Viviana needs to go !

Watching her handle that gun during her teams scene was more then scary tonight, to say the least.

I was prepared to come here and vent about Vivianna. Thank God she chose to leave. That woman clearly has some psychological problems. I felt my chest tighten and my stress level rise just from watching her.

Now, this show will get interesting. With no one causing intense drama, it will be a true competition to see who has acting chops. That's what I wanted to see along. Vivianna's presence simply made this show trashy.

Vivianna's occupation is "club dancer". Is that a diplomatic way of saying she's a stripper?

Yes Beachcomber, Viviana must of heard my wish, she needed to go. It's kind of sad in a way, because you can see the girl has some problems that are a bit deeper.

I was a little surprise about Santino being pick to leave too. They all were pretty good IMO.

Club dancer = stripper to me in most cases that I know of.

I know one thing, if Vivianna had been chosen to stay tonight, I would have quit watching.

Its one thing to put her in the house over someone else more talented so they can juice up the drama in the house. The person they screwed out of a place in the house hopefully wouldn't have gone on to be a top contender anyway.

But if they'd kept Vivianna in the house after tonight to keep the drama going, it would have been beyond ridiculous. She has some deep rooted problems. Heck, when she was ranting on in her individual interviews, she was making no sense whatsoever. She was definitely in her own warped little world. Add to that her inability to focus, which made her a danger to the rest of the cast, and you reach the beyond ridiculous phase of things.

disclaimer....the following is pure speculation by me Of course, knowing how rigged Last Comic ended up being, for all we know Vivianna was an actress hired to do the drama. They put her in the house to draw the interest, and once they thought they had us sucked in, they decided she'd done her job and told her she could now leave the house. That would actually make more sense to me than thinking producers would actually seek to have such an unstable person continue doing screen tests. I think in real life she would have been cut in the first round. JMHO.

It might have been more satisfying for the judges to fire Vivianna, but I'm just happy that she is gone!
