Are you guys still watching this show? I know the ratings dropped. Moving it to Wednesdays didn't help.

Tonight, I was surprised Linda was chosen to leave or the model chick.

But no one, as of yet, really sticks out for me. Many of them are talented, but no one, in my opinion, is outstanding.

I like this show more each week. I was surprised Linda and Harold are out. I loved Harold, I think he will have a career in comedy, he seems like a great guy.

I like Jeane and Corrine...Jared is getting on my nerves.

Does anyone else think Jared looks like he could be Billy Crystal's brother? Everytime I look at him, I expect him to start cracking jokes instead of being serious. :-)

That's who it is, thanks watch....every time I saw him I knew he reminded me of somebody but for the life of me I couldn't figure out who....now I can put it to rest.........I think he should have got the boot last night I think he did horrible, much worse than the guy that got the boot. But then again, what do I know, I'm no casting director.

When it came down to House and Jared, there wasn't a doubt in my mind that House would be the one leaving. The only guys left that I like are Mark and John, but my eye candy left with House.

I'm glad Linda is gone. The only women left that I like are Corrine and Mae. I don't care for Melisande or Jeane at all.

I'm really sad that House left.... I hope he does still get a career, maybe in comedy. I don't care for Jared at all, he's too arrogant. My favorite female is Corinne. I didn't like Linda at all, glad she's gone.

Dang I forgot about this show!! Now that I hear House left, I guess it doesn't matter as he was one of my fav's. Which one was Linda? All the women run together in my mind.

Linda was the Italian one. I liked her and thought she had an edge the others didn't. I'm liking Jared less and less but still think he's the most talented of the males, even though he did so badly last night.

I liked Linda a lot. She was m,emorable, not another model like Melissane. Also reminds me off Martina Navratolova. Jared totally reminds me of Billy Crystal. He's intense, but I was on his side in the debate with that hunky guy, whoever he is. I I hate when people insult you, then claim they were only "teasing" and you're a bad sport for not going along with it.

I can't watch anymore! :-(

I work out on Wed. Nights. Not switching to Tues and Thurs (because of BB), so I don't get to see it... I hear Mae is still on there though! lol

OK I watched tonight for the first time in a while and that Corinne girl is getting on my nerves. Jared makes me sick.

I like Corinne. Jared seems to get more insane every episode.
I thought it was stupid they didn't kick anyone off.

Well Jared went over the top for me tonight! He was SO bad in his acting class and then how he talked about how they did - he was so arrogant. I thought he was a good actor before, but since he reminds me of Billy Crystal, he doesn't do it as an action star for me!

I guess I don't like Mae because I keep thinking about what Feary told us about her! :-) I like Jeanne the best out of the women. I like Melisande's personality, but don't think she'll cut it as the action star either. Corinne is getting on my nerves lately. She has so many hangups.

I like John and Mark the best, and Sean was more endearing during this episode. I also thought they should have just kicked someone off. Talk about a way to drag out the show!

Hip, Corrine is my fav also. It is fun watching Jared self destruct each week.

Totally can't stand Jared now. Where before I cut him a break, he's totally psycho, and I've rarely seen worse acting. The way he kept grimacing and twisting his lips to represent anger had ME grimacing in disgust. And his mocking of the chef was totally uncalled for.

What did Feary say about Mae?

Disliked Corinne's issues with the professional stylist, too. What is she, a diva in training? You're not famous yet, so try to get along, 'kay?

I'm still watching every week. I really like this show. I'm surprized that there is not so much interest here.

Jerad is kinda challenging to like right now, but overall, he has a good look.

I sincerely like all of the rest of the remaining contestants.

These folks, unlike ALL the rest of reality show contestants, have a defined objective of having a feature film as their goal. Others hope to get a future in show biz, these folks are guaranteed at least one shot.

I think it's a lot more real and a lot tougher. Did you see the promo for next week? The stunts look horrific.

This ain't no wimppy BB, TAR, Survivor, etc (and don't get me wrong, I LOVE LOVE all those shows)
but this show is the real deal. They really ARE trying to get a REAL, defined job in show biz. Everything they have is on the line.

I also think it's pretty honest. All of the "TYPE" kinda people are being eliminated. It appears to me that the judges are really looking for an original look and talent.

Anyway, just my .

I hope more of you will check this out.

Hey, we've been watching this show as well.
And you are dead on about the show actually being about actor wanna-be's and real to the purpose of the show (as oppose to BB where most of the "real" people are actor wanna-be's who think the show will make them famous).
Jared is getting an ego that is too big for his head and his 'acting' has gotten worse instead of better. Which is such a shame.
John has grown the most since the start (and physically appears to have changed the most as well). Sean is great eye candy, and could play a thug right now (but not the hero).

Good news is that the two parts they are going to get are not "leads".

I too have been watching it (although I'll have to tape it this week due to guitar lessons) but I don't see the Billy Crystal thing with Jared. He has reminded me of Vince Vaughn from the beginning.

I like this show too and watch it over Last comic standings's repeat (even though I miss the original every week because of BB)

Corinne has always been my favourite..she felt really "real"to me.

NOw, after watching Etalk Live and Canada AM today..for sure she will stay my fav!!!! Who knew she was a Canadian born in Scarborough and former cop in Ottawa!! Yeah Corinne.

I hope this isn't the kiss of death for her.

Speaking of kissing...

I love this show. And the reason why I love it is because it has proven to be a cut above other reality shows. To me, this show has a dignity and class others don't.

But watching Jared and Melasande (sp?) get hot and heavy pretty quickly--with Jared's girlfriend being mentioned repeatedly--brings in a sleaze factor this show doesn't need. And it's sad.

(I also feel sad for Jared's girlfriend. What a crappy way to find out your boyfriend is a loser.)

Mark and Mae's elimination was justified. They didn't do well.

Next week Melasande (sp, again?) better be asked to leave. I don't know why she's still there. I don't think she's a good actress at all.

I really like how they have to go through the stunt work AND the acting classes. It said the next time is the finale, so I'm assuming there's going to be a longer show since there's so many contestants left. I really like John a lot. I like Corinne a lot better this episode. I don't think Melisande will hang on much longer.

I really like this show too. I agree it has so much more class that BB. But I also think that TAR has class too. I don't care for Jared tho, to me he just looks very mean. I would be afraid to meet up with him on a dark, lonely street at night. I like all the rest of them and don't really care who wins. I thought next week was the last show. If it is they have a heckuva lot of people to get rid of.

My fav's are Corinne and Sean..man I just think Sean is GORGEOUS!!!! (now you know my taste in men ) I like John also.
