Hi Owl. I just saw your post about what I could do if I wanted to see the show. I assume you mean cause you had recorded it? Well, anyway, my main reason for wanting to see this show is I want to hear this guy talk. I just love the Aussie accent on a man. I taped tonights, so I'll finally be able to do it. Don't really think its all that important for me to see eps I've missed.

If that's what you were offering, thanks. Very sweet, but not neccessary to put you through the trouble.

Loved Marissa's expression when she was told she wasn't leaving. What a sly smile!

I'll be speaking with Harmonie (eliminated week 2) in an hour - if you have any burning questions to ask let me know - I will check back before the call.

I missed it again! :-( The bad thing is that TBS doesn't repeat this show at all any other day. Tuesday is too busy a night.

Yep Who, that's what I meant. I've deleted alot of the shows that I was saving in case anyone wanted them, but I still have all of this show in case you wanted it. If you're sure you don't want it, let me know and I'll delete it. It's no problem at all if you do want it, though.

Thank you again MsOwl! I appreciate the offer, but just don't see a need for you to go to the trouble (even if you say its no trouble). Like I said, I just wanted to hear this guy talk.

As far as the women go, and who I may have missed so far, I'm not invested enough in it to go to an extra effort. I do admit that what I saw last night was one of the better "dating" theme shows I'd seen. I loved seeing the pampered princesses have to tough it out!

Thank you again.

Careful a bit of a spoiler in the last paragraph of the interesting things that happened when the cameras weren't rolling.

Things Get Wild Behind the Scenes of TBS's New Reality Series OUTBACK JACK

TBS OUTBACK JACK
OUTBACK JACK puts a group of pampered city women to the test as they vie for the affections of their rugged leading man Vadim Dale. The series combines fish-out-of-water comedy with romantic adventure, making for plenty of fun twists and turns. In episode 4, which premieres Tuesday, July 13 at 9 p.m., his camel is sick, so Vadim travels on foot leading the girls instead of riding.

ATLANTA, GA USA 07/09/2004

OUTBACK JACK Tuesdays at 9 p.m. (ET/PT)

ATLANTA, July 9 /PRNewswire/ -- Things are getting a little wild behind
the scenes of TBS's new reality series OUTBACK JACK, airing Tuesdays at 9 p.m.
(ET/PT). OUTBACK JACK, from Bruce Nash's Nash Entertainment (Meet My Folks,
For Love or Money, Who Wants To Marry My Dad?), puts a group of pampered city
women to the test as they vie for the affections of their rugged leading man.
The series, hosted by JD Roberto (Shop Til You Drop, Shark Chasers), combines
fish-out-of-water comedy with romantic adventure, making for plenty of fun
twists and turns.
(Photo: http://www.newscom.com/cgi-bin/prnh/20040709/CLF025 )
Here are just a few of the interesting things happening when the cameras
aren't rolling:

- Australia's rainy season left three of OUTBACK JACK's six camps
flooded until just one week before production started.

- The girls had no hot water for their showers at camp. The first time
they had a chance to shower in hot water was their first night in
Perth, three weeks into production. The water for their camp showers
was pumped directly from nearby natural sources and could not be
heated.

- On their first night at camp, Jack's friends treated the girls to a
local feast. They were reluctant at first to try crocodile burgers and
kangaroo kabobs, but they were so hungry, they finally dug in.

- It took one full-time employee to deal with the girls' luggage
throughout production.

- Originally at the end of episode 2 and the beginning of episode 3, Jack
was going to drive the girls in a large jeep. The production team
decided on that course of action after concerns were raised that the
girls would not want to drive their own vehicles, especially since they
were stick shifts. Once production got under way, however, the team
realized the girls were much more capable and gung-ho than they
thought. So the production team tracked down several more "bull
catchers" for the girls to drive.

- The tree house in episode 2 took four days to build.

- Jack literally protected the girls from the dangers of the Outback.
The girls may not have realized it at the time (because Jack did not
want to alarm them), but he would always put his cot between the water
and the girls' cots in case a croc decided to come out of the water in
the middle of the night. In the area where filming took place, there
had been a recent story of a croc pulling a visitor's tent into the
water. Jack also intercepted several poisonous snakes, and with a
security guard, chased off several hungry dingoes in the middle of the
night. To arrive at the second camp, the group had to cross a river.
That night, Jack and Maria saw several crocodile eyes shining right in
the area they crossed just hours before.

- Because one of the camels was sick, Jack travels on foot leading the
girls in episode 4.

- Before shooting the end of episode 5, Jack changed his mind at the last
minute regarding whom to eliminate. Jack informed the production that
he changed his mind from one girl to another. The girl he was
originally going to eliminate still does not know how close she came to
leaving in episode 5.

Nash is one of the most creative and prolific producers in television. His
company, Nash Entertainment, is responsible for some of the top-rated reality
programs on television and is expanding into scripted series, with such
recently announced projects as If the South Won the Civil War, as well as

contemporary comedies as Sex and the City, Seinfeld and Friends, with
Everybody Loves Raymond, Family Guy and Yes, Dear joining the line-up this
summer; high-profile original reality series, such as the upcoming projects
The Real Gilligan's Island and The Mansion; blockbuster movies; and hosted

I'm so excited over this show I find Tuesday's take forever to come. I loved to watch these pampered girls fight over this hot guy in such an atmospere. I think this show is halerious and suspensful. I think Marissa likes Jack the most out of everyone. i think she should get another chance to get back in the game. It should be Jack's decision, not the other girls'. I can't wait to see the rest of the show.

I can't wait to see the girls' expressions when they find out that Marissa isn't really gone afterall! I thought that was a great twist. I think she really is into him, too, and I think he's really into her.

I must be dense, since I really don't get the "spoiler" part of the article above. If the girl doesn't know he changed his mind, will WE know? I guess we'll have to see when that show airs.

If it helps anyone w/the Tuesday night lineup - I taped this show at the 11pm showing when they rerun it after Sex & The City. That's helped clear up that 9pm slot.. slightly! LOL

Great show. Unfortunately, our recording stopped just after the host told Marissa that she wasn't eliminated (the boomerang comment). Did they show anything interesting after that? Thanks!

Thanks! We're looking forward to next week. We don't normally watch the dating reality shows but we found this to be a fun show.

Vadim Dale (outback Jack himself) is on Regis right now.

Before the show he was a foreman on a construction site. His friends heard about the show and talked him into auditioning (for the money). His favourite things are outdoors, ? , and kids (I forget the second thing). He seems like a really nice guy. He did NOT say that he fell in love with anyone. When asked he just said he connected with a lot of the girls.

Jan, I saw him on CNN right before the show air and he also said then that he hadn't fallen in love, although the show is making it sound that way, but of course, they would do that! :-)

Did anyone else think last night's show was over the top? That was crazy, bringing on these obviously buff and wildnerness (and totally) fake women to compete with the "city girls." I was impressed with Adrienne though. If it was only her she would have won.

This show is just so bad that it makes me laugh. I can't help watching it. And I have to say that I'm glad that Mary is gone...watching her pooch up her lips all the time was really getting on my nerves.

I think this weeks Outback Jack was proabably the most suspensful so far. I was pretty much falling out of my seat when the teams were competing in the challenge. I really wanted the girls to win, not the buff girls... I can't wait for next weeks show, I really want to see the looks on all of their faces when they see Marissa again. Especially Adrienne's, they had a big cat fight before Marissa left. I'm very excited for next week. It's going to be halerious, I don't really like Meri-de that much either. I don't think she deserves to be there, she wasn't there in the beginning...

Yea... He looks good the way he was before...I wonder what he'll look like when he's all waxed up. He'll proobably be the one who's the most tired after ALL the SHOPPING those girls are going to make him do. LOL. I'm not too sure about Meri-de? Does anyone think he'll vote her out next week?

I've been enjoying "Outback Jack" from the beginning of the series, too--and just today made cutie-pie Jack my wallpaper on my p.c. DH asked if he could download a picture of a topless woman that he could slobber over, but I said he couldn't.

Jack's hair always looks wet, whether from sweat or water when they cross the rivers, etc., and I'm anxious to see him polished up by a salon in Perth. He will be a doll, and I'm hoping the stylist will give him a "dry-look" hairstyle at least once. Mmm, Jack!

Wonder why the aborigines chose Mary as the most compatible girl for Jack? I didn't find her the best match for him, and it's interesting that their choosing Mary didn't seem to weigh heavily in his decision when he let her go. In fact, he didn't mention anything about his aboriginal friends having chosen Mary, did he? She was too blatantly sexual, imo, for Jack. I think he prefers a more reserved woman than Mary. She was too out-there, if you know what I mean.
