This show is kinda of sad. It is obvious the Brigitte has a real drinking problem. I am glad there are cameras on her...while she is smoking at the point of passing out (a fire waiting to happen.) Jordan did not do himself a favor by 1st refusing to let Ryan have the couch room and then barricading the door. I noticed when Bridgette fell and hurt herself, Ryan took off while Flava stayed around to see if Brig was okay. Dave seems like he would have a nasty temper in real life. The look he gave Jordan after the olsen twin comment was scary.

In Ryan's defense, I have had mixed experiences with male strippers. I love the shows where the guys just get on stage and do their act, but I have seen acts where the guys run through the audience and start throwing body parts in your face and that is just too much. I mean, you have no idea where those parts have been, and *I* would kind of like to make the choice if I want to get any closer to them.... I did not think that I was going to like Flavor Flav from the previews, but he seems totally sweet if a little frantic. Being around someone that "high energy" is probably hard in real life but dandy for an hour of TV! Jordan - huh?? That guy seems a little strange to me. Note to future celebrities - WATCH the show before you sign to go on it. He is probably one of those guys that has to be completely alone in the bathroom. Brigitte I liked - I had a different impression of her from reading the tabloids. The tough girl act seems so obviously a halfharted defense for her loneliness and neediness. I hope that she and Flavor do become friends, what a pair! Dave seems like an all-around nice guy. Charo has been a favorite of mine for years and I will enjoy watching her on this program. At first I thought I was not going to like this cast as much, but I am already bought into them!

Jordan said something about he wouldn't mind getting one of the twins and Dave said he's known them since they were in diapers and he takes offense when anyone talks about them since they are 18. I thought that was really neat that he is so defensive of them.

What I like about this show is that each season there is at least one person who blows me away in terms of being great when I expected them to be NOT great. And then there are people I might THINK I know about, or have an opinion about and here they are in three dimensions and I get to re-evaluate. (Corey was worse than I'd feared.. I ended up loving Tammy Faye, and this season, just from one episode, I'm learning much more about Flava and I'm liking that Ryan is filling a role.. they need someone young to be IN the house to react.. and also to see how they react. Last year Trishelle was the young one and the rest of them were really a bit concerned about her with the drinking and the coming on to Vanilla Ice (see the VH1 special for more about that, sheesh), but they also protected her (Tammy Faye especially, when Sally Jessy Raphael jumped all over Trishelle). This season it looks like Ryan will be more the voice of reason but I suspect she'll come to be more open, while still retaining her good sense. Actually at this stage in her career, she is making some very interesting connections. The ones who come on to this show acting like it is so beneath them, to me, are the most desperate.. I'm guessing their agents have told them that they really need this shot of publicity.. pretty sad that some of them actually bury themselves further, while most of them emerge with some new fans. Love Charo! She's like Dolly Parton. They each know that people will make fun of them but they have talent and confidence and laugh on the way to the bank. (I'm guessing Dolly has more in the bank to laugh about, but same attitude).

Lol,Sea! Charo rocks. Tonight,Ryan kinda showed her immature ass. She wouldn't get in the pool? Jordan is just a uh,yuck. It's over dude,my hubby is hotter than you,and older. The fact that he would even think Ryan would hook up with him is hilarious,and so self-involved.

I didn't like when Ryan thought Dave was coming on to her--and he totally was not.

Ryan is just a kid. She doesn't know how to act around these people. Brigitte just looks wasted all the time. I don't think it has anything to do with being European like Dave said. Jordan , I think, is still living in his mind, in his NKOTB groupie days.

I think Ryan sounds like a sheltered, spoiled brat. I was the biggest New Kids fan. I camped out for tickets, I slept on their bedsheets, I wrote my name with Donny Walbergs last name a million times...If you told me that Jordan would end up on a show like this and acting like such an ass, I never would have believed it. He is completely unlikeable. Charo is great. What more can I say? Dave does look like he could snap. He doesn't get alot of airtime. Brigitte reminds me of Anna Nicole on her show a bit. It is hard to watch her because it is almost painful. I feel embarrassed for her. Especially when she asked Jordan for a kiss. Flava is quite a surprise. He is this seasons ROn Jeremy and I love it. That is what I like about this show. They show you another side of someone who seems like a caricature. I think he is a sweetheart.

I think Ryan is gay. Flav probably has the right vibe about that. Yeahhhhhhhhhh Boyyyyyyyyyyyyy! I also think some unflattering things about her--like that I hope this is the apex of her entertainment career and worse--but that's neither here nor there. I still maintain that Dave is a mess and he's just trying desparately to hide it. He was nasty about Ryan, Charo, and Bridgette last night during the "dates." And I didn't see him interact with the guys much either. I sense that he believes he's above it all, but he's not. He's an out of work actor just like the people working at Abercrombie and Fitch at the Grove. I don't mind Bridgette at all. Flav knows the deal. I call a cab 'cause a cab will come quicker The doctors huddle up and call a flea flicker The reason that I say that 'cause they Flick you off like fleas They be laughin' at ya while you're crawlin' on your knees And to the strength so go the length Thinkin' you are first when you really are tenth You better wake up and smell the real flavor Cause 911 is a fake life saver So get up a git git git down. 911 is joke in yo town. hi sbg!

I like Flav's upbeat attitude and I am glad he is there, but I don't like the way he is taking advantage of Brig's drunkiness. I know she is the one making the advances but is he so hard up that he has to take her up on the offer when she obviously seems to be having some drinking problems. I don't think this season is gonna be that good. Dave, Ryan, and Jordan seem to have problems interacting. Dave was great when he called Brig on using the European excuse for her bad behavior, but other than that he seemed like a real downer. Ryan was rude to all three men. Jordan did not seem to socialize alot so I was glad to see him playing pool with Flav...but I had to laugh at Jordan when he hit up on Ryan and was shot down. Also, I must state that I hate when a guy throws out the "are you gay?" question when a girl does not automatically fall for there charm.

Call me a prude, but how many of you would want to get in the pool with 2 people who appeared to be on the verge of having sex? Like Ryan, I would also wait until they had finished their business before I went in and hoped and prayed that the chlorine killed their cooties!!

Finally saw the second eppy, very cute. Note to Ryan: Honey, you aren't Mariah Carey, knock it off with the attitude. I can understand her ick factor with Flav and B. in the pool, and definitely the "Are you a virgin?" question. I can even understand her annoyance at Flav's pool playing at 11 p.m., but other than that she really needs to calm down. When you've had a few hit albums, hell in her case even three, THEN act the diva.

I find them all sickening. I think Brigitte Nielsen is pathetic and Flava Flav - ewwwwwwwww, the rest are just desperate for attention. The only one I find mindly amusing is Charo.

Flava comes across better and better every episode. The kids really seemed to like him and he seemed to enjoy spending time with them. I just wish he would stay away from Brig. LOL to the boy who said Charo should dress her age. Although if I looked that good I would wear outfits like that too.

I love Flavor Flav !!! He's sweet and friendly and takes the tasks assigned to him seriously without being soo uptight...are you listening Tiffany? (heh) He's the reason I'm watching the show! What's wrong with a little nookie? There are hook-ups on pretty near every reality show!

Flaavor Flaaaav! Flavor Flav definitely shined in this episode. He was so good with the kids. He is the main reason [so far] that I'm continuing to watch the show. Jordan and Ryan appear to be spoiled brats. I wish Jordan was on with Eric Estrada. I think Eric would have taught him to be more of a gentleman. (side note - is it just me or does Jordan remind anyone else of Christopher Knight - Peter Brady?) Dave...just is. Charo is... well, Charo. I watch with Closed Captioning and I still can't understand what she's saying half the time. But she is amusing. I hope Flavor Flav doesn't really dig Gitt (Brigette) and is just in it for the nookie, because she appears to crave the attention of any and every male. I guess that's because she's European We'll see how he acts next week after she hooks up with some other guy.

Wonder why they never showed Jordan singing during his group's practice or performance? Maybe it's a contract issue? If so, how thoroughly ridiculous.

Good show. I am enjoying Flav and Brig's growing friendship, even if they do hook up, I believe they have a real friendship. He's crazy about her for who she is, she cares enough to get to know him and they're having FUN! That's what it should be about IMO... Don't know what on earth Ryan is doing there.

FLAV TO COMPETE WITH NIELSEN'S FIANCE FOR LOVE Flamboyant Public Enemy rapper Flavor Flav is set to star in a TV first -- a reality show where he'll battle with Brigitte Nielsen's fiance for the statuesque Dane's affection. The 45-year-old hip-hop star -- real name William Drayton -- and 41-year-old Nielsen, ex-wife of Sylvester Stallone, have caused a stir in the latest season of reality show "The Surreal Life," where they've been locked in ongoing displays of affection. And now they hope to appear in their own spin-off show for cable network VH1, in which Flav and Nielsen's 25-year-old bartender fiance Mattia Disse will try to win her heart. Nielsen tells the New York Post, "They're both gonna ask me to marry them, that's what I think. We're starting the next show on October 4, Mr. F and myself. "We're just going to be hanging out. He's going to pick me up in Italy. We're going to his mom's. Then we're off to Los Angeles for two days and then we go to Vegas." Nielsen, who got engaged to Disse shortly after taping "The Surreal Life," is currently in the middle of a divorce from Raoul Meyer. http://www.sfgate.com/columnists/dailydish/ All I can say is, the woman certainly gets around. And I can't believe she's only 41! All that booze and the cigs certainly do age a gal!
