Rumor has it That Bonnie from Season 2 decided not to do LCS3. The folks from Season 2 were told that they could replace her with another female from the Semi-finals. So they picked Jessica Kirson. All Season 1 contestants are returning and I am hearing that there won't be any of the "in the house" kind of stuff. Just comedy. Ralphie May says that they will be able to choose their opponent like a Red Rover, Red Rover kind of thing. I think I am going to like that.

I am hearing that it will be head to head competitions....with America voting every week! It sounds like an American Idol kind of deal. It sounds to me like lots of good comedy...but I think Season 1 will have a definite advantage being that they have had a whole year to write new material!

I don't want to spoil anything for the west coasters, but Ralphie May's performance was the most gut wrenching performance I have ever seen. For him to go on stage and try to do jokes after losing his father yesterday, is one courageous act. What a true professional. The show must go on.

My heart was breaking for him, God love him. Then (this sounds bad)the thought crossed my mind ..what if he was making it up...like Jon from Survivor. It was just the way Jay kinda smirked when he was giving out his #....although..that smirk could have been a look of holding back tears..not sure

I was thinking it wouldn't help him to lie because even if he got sympathy vote this week..if ppl found out he lied it would piss them off and would vote him out next time. I am sorry I even brought it up. (((Ralphie)))

That's okay Pamy. I can completely understand your skepticism considering the Johnny Fairplay deal. We had the same thing at our house. Hubby was a total skeptic, daughter was stunned, and I was a basket case. Ralphie posts at another site with us, and he is an IM buddy with one of my IM buddies so I took it pretty hard. Knowing Ralphie a little. I can tell you that he has never backed down from a challenge and has always been willing to put himself out there. He told us that he never repeated material in season 1 and had all new material for this season and wouldn't repeat any of it. Tonight's performance simply wasn't his style. He hasn't posted since the show, but he was on the board reading. I felt really bad for him, because there was a lot of skeptical people and it had to be hard to read that people just weren't buying it...or that you should have just cancelled your performance and gone home to your family. Ralphie is a true professional and didn't want to let anyone down. I admire him for putting the show before his own needs. I am sure it is what his father wanted and what a remarkable way to honor him.

Mary, I believed Ralphie. I didn't think he'd be a person who would pull a Johnny Fairplay.

I thought Ralphie's routine was an act. I didn't think of it as a "Johnny Fairplay" kind of cheat for votes. I thought of it as a brilliant comedy routine. Kind of like the old Andy Kaufman stuff where you weren't sure if he was kidding or for real. Either way, I felt Ralphie deserved a vote. For either being brilliant or for being courageous.
