sanfran - To be honest, after describing the show to them, my friends are starting to say that they may have to start watching it. I just wanted to bring it up one more reason why some people may not watch it.

Word of mouth is a very powerful weapon. Let's hope it helps JS2 as much as it helped JS1.

Muggum..what do you think of that article!!???

I would think she could get in big trouble for saying all that stuff before the show aired.

If it is true, I don't think she cared if America laughs at her, she seems to have a great sense of humor.

Also, if it is true, I love that you can't fool a woman but you can fool a man..TWICE! lol

Therlin, I just don't think that very many people are like your friends -- not watching because they think the show is mean. There are other reasons for the low ratings:

(1) It's on Spike! Who watches that channel on a regular basis?

(2) There has been a lack of advertising or publicity to let people know it's on.

(3) Perhaps the people who would watch Joe Schmo are the same folks who are watching the Real World or Queer Eye. Tuesday night seems to be heavy on reality TV. And then the same audience my be attracted to Nip/Tuck, also on at the same time.

This addition of a Monday night airing may be good for the ratings.

Ingrid reminds me of the friend (I can't remember her name) of the "star" of Boy Meets Boy.

The story contains at least one major inaccuracy. That's all I'm really allowed to say. Always read at your own risk!

I am just surprised she gave an interview at all until after the show, I thought that sort of thing was frowned upon and could cost her

Can I just say how annoying spikeTV and the JoeSchomoe show is??!!!??? The show was just on - but did they bother to list it? No. My TiVo easily could have recorded it, it updates to the newest schedule every night - but apparently SpikeTV doesn't bother to update the schedule service, leaving it's viewers with NO CLUE as to when to tune into see a TV show.

Very, very annoyed right now!!! I saw the last two minutes because I happened to click by....

You were?

Gina maybe you should complain to TIVO; my cable company seems to have the information and since I told it to record any showing, it happily recorded tonight's show, which I'll watch tomorrow (having already seen it once).

Pamy, I caught the tea-bagginf reference too :-)

And it was clear from the start that Ingrid was catching on, but that just makes it fun for us to watch her wonder and to watch the others scrambling to make it more "real" while maintaining the "over the top" parody.

I think Therlin is referring to the fact that MTV shows episodes of Joe Schmo also, and it was on last night.

ummm.... TiVo said it was on at 8:00 - not ~11pm (EDT) (which is when I happened to flip by it). I couldn't record it at 11(ish) - it said the Godfather was on instead - which it wasn't. No guarantees you will actually find "Joe" on your recorder. BTW - TiVo does not keep it's own schedule. It uses the same service everyone else does.

It came on here at 8pm on Spike and either 10pm or 11pm on MTV.

So the new episode is going to air tonight? This would be great news for me -- Tuesday nights are TOO FULL! Last Comic Standing is on as is Sex in the City on TBS. Not to mention Queer Eye. There's too much airing on Tuesday. Monday could prove to be a good move.

yeah....but a warning if you're taping it....the show starts at 11:05 EST give or take, not at 11, so give it a few extra minutes (I'd go with from 11-12:15 myself)

If you have a TiVo season pass make sure you pad it (say 30 extra minutes) since WWE tends to go long.}

Well, maybe TIVO uses the same service, but right now, I brought up my DVR schedule thing.. put in 60 for Spike.. went up to 11pm and there it is..

The Joe Schmo Show. 11:05 -12:00am

We don't seem to get JS on MTV here,k at least that I can see, but it repeats on Spike, so it works for me.

So perhaps the difference is how the services use the info..

Not saying my cable company always gets it right of course.

My Tivo has the show tonight ok. What it didn't get was the repeat of the second ep shown last night around 10 or 11pm EDT. I still haven't seen the second ep - but apparently it's getting played all over the place, but it isn't showing up on the schedules. So, unless I happen to see a promo or flip by it, I don't get to see it. I wouldn't mind missing it if it conflicted with something I prefered, but it ticks me off that it was showing when my TiVo was idle, but spike didn't bother to keep the service updated.

If Spike doesn't keep it updated, someone at Time-Warner is doing it for us.. mine caught and recorded the sunday repeat (and if you can find a repeat, it is worth watching.. and it is listing the new ep late tonight and then the repeat on Tuesday at 10. But nothing listed for MTV here..

Hey look who got a plug on the offical show blog......and I think this week and next will be interesting. I do wonder what the "major error" on that article is.....but I think NEXT week would be more important...why else would it be 90 minutes?
