Sheesh! This isn't BB. You'd think they'd give them newspapers to read. I think that would be fun to watch. They'd read the paper and make off-the-cuff jokes and comments about current events.

yeah I agree! What would be the big deal to let them read the paper?

The following are just general comments and have no reflection on who won or who left tonight. I'll wait until tomorrow to comment on that. I'm still really impressed with John because no matter what situation he is in, he seems to have a great flexibility to adapt to it. Why Ant chose to use the "N" word is beyond me. I know what his explanation was but if it was really for that reason, he should have been a heck of alot more clear about it before using it. I've never seen this guy before so I keep trying to pinpoint why he bugs me so much. Imagine if they used this same camera voting process on BB! I'd love to see their reactions to what is said about them.

Okay, is it me, or is this show just not funny this year? Last year I laughed all through it. I hope this is what the producers wanted when they rigged the house. Maybe they didn't want a funny show. Maybe they wanted a dramatic reality show. I don't know. What I do know is that they have one more week for me. If it doesn't get better, I'm done. It's too bad.

I sure thought it was funny when Todd did his Knives infomercial. And I also thought it was funny, despite my dislike for him, when Ant was making up all those lies about the star homes along the tour. He sure could lie on his feet! And I thought all of the stand-up was funny. I will miss Todd - he was a scream.

Hobbs, I'm with you. I think last year's group was much funnier. DH thinks this group is funnier, and I think he's nuts! My cheeks hurt I was laughing so hard last year. Especially Dave Mordal. He was, and still is, my favorite. Remember when he and Rich Voss had their facials? Too funny! I'm gonna miss Todd too. At least he lost by 45%-not a total slaughter like last week.

On the head to head competition I liked Todd better than Tammy. Tammy's mafia jokes get old real fast. I didn't even smile at her jokes but did get a laugh out of Todd's. Did more happen between Ant & Corey than what they showed because I didn't get why Ant was crying and thought I heard when someone was talking about it later they made it sound like Corey struck Ant????

Even though he wasn't my favorite I couldn't help but feel bad for Todd! I'm not sure why Ant was so upset after his exchange with Corey, although everyone on the bus looked very uncomfortable. Maybe because he called him on it? Next week's episode looks like it has the potential to be pretty funny.

I felt bad for Todd too. He was the most "active" in the house (as far as doing funny stuff for us). I think he was nervous & it showed. He seemed to talk faster & faster into his act like he wanted to get all his stuff in - I think this is what cost it for him. I wish him well.

Ant is bugging me more and more! I thought Todd was funnier than Tammy in the routines. I was quite surprised that Tammy won. Todd got on my nerves at first, but was growing on me. I was sorry to see him go. I don't think Corey is that funny. His jokes on women have a mean feel to them, IMHO, but then I am the first to admit I am sensitive to that because of my past. I laughed at his schtick about how you can look at another woman by pretending to put her down, but after that part was over, it just seemed to get mean. Tammy's mob jokes are going to get old. Just like Ant's routine will get tired if he doesn't mix it up. He did a great job as tour guide, though! And I laughed at how he made it all up. I could never do something off the cuff like that! I don't really have a favorite right now. I feel like I am still getting to know them and their stand up styles. I am enjoying the show a whole lot!

In watching it on Saturday, both DH and I were bummed about the whole show. Todd was the only one who made us laugh. What's with the whole house thing? Why not focus on the comedy instead of this alliance stuff? I am truly believing that this is rigged...which is my whole hang-up with reality shows.

I'll continue watching this show but feel that if reality TV is some what rigged - this show proves it. I honestly think Ant must have been "fed" some info. to be able to win so hands down on the tourist challenge. It's obvious the producers want Ant & all the disruptions he seems to be instigating to be part of this show. There's no way Ant could win IMO if "they" make it where he is in the end.

Did Comic Shatter Todd Glass? by Ben Katner Dramatic headline, eh? But in a word, the answer is... no. Being booted from the Last Comic Standing madhouse last week didn't start Todd Glass thinking about switching to a career in Ginsu-knife sales. (He'd be good at it, though!) As another joker packs his or her bags in tonight's episode (9 pm/ET on Fox), TV Guide Online catches up with the funnyman who turns out to be — no kidding — as sensitive as he is silly. TV Guide Online: Let's begin with the end — were you glad that in your head-to-head with Tammy Pescatelli, the vote was so close, or were you like, "Damn those five extra people who picked her!"? Todd Glass: I have a joke where I go, "I laughed so hard, I punched you in the uterus." My brother goes, "That probably lost you five women right there; I'm glad you like that joke so much that it was worth losing for!" When you think about it, there's probably some truth to that. But I was happy that it was close. It was better than it being 99 to 1. TVGO: You were widely accused by your fellow comics of being too "on." Any regrets about adopting that strategy? Glass: It really wasn't a strategy. They can't make you look like something you're not. So that [goofiness] is a part of me. I'm very happy with the way they made me look. [The producers] showed parts with me being serious, too, like when I lost. I wasn't trying to be wacky and silly. It bummed me out! But most of the time, I'm in a pretty good mood. I mean, I get to tell jokes for a living. I should run around in a good mood! Except when I lose. [Mock sobs] TVGO: When is the dance remix of "The Attention Song" coming out? Glass: [Laughs] That song was like time and place. Bonnie McFarlane and John Heffron and Gary Gulman and I were just being silly. Most of the time, Ant and Tammy and I got along all right, too, but they chose to do an impersonation of being on a reality show, which is a shame. They shouldn't have phoned it in like that. They should have been there, in the moment, because if they were, they would have said, "Todd was so funny last night!" Other times, they would have said, "Last night, he was a little too much." But they thought that an impersonation of a reality-show [participant] would be to just complain all the time. TVGO: That Tammy is a killer strategist. Glass: Yeah, but she didn't need to be. Tammy won because of her act. All that strategizing was a waste of time. TVGO: Let's talk about the fracas on the tour bus. Even though you apparently started the argument, you managed to step back and let Ant and Corey Holcomb go at it instead. How?! Glass: It's the same thing. Ant thought he had to act upset about something I said. Who even remembers what it was? And he was crying. He didn't look scared on the bus, did he? Look, it's like this: I might not hang out with a guy like Alonzo Bodden all the time, but when we did hang out, I liked him. Everybody in the house got along. The only reason I didn't enjoy Tammy and Ant as much was because they were off forming their alliances. TVGO: They were playing Survivor while everybody else was playing Last Comic Standing. Glass: That's better said than I said it. I know it's just a show, but it's hard not to analyze what they were doing. TVGO: I'm sure they will, too, once they're off the show. Glass: I don't think they'll own it. They'll blame it on the editing. "The show made me look like this!" TVGO: When I spoke with Bonnie last week, she said there was incredible sexual tension between you and her, but you wouldn't give it up. What's the deal with that? Glass: Bonnie said that? [Laughs] Tell Bonnie she can have me anytime she wants. TVGO: I was kidding. Glass: Oh. TVGO: But I'll tell her you said so, anyway. Now that millions of viewers know you are the secret love child of Mel Gibson and Fred Flintstone, have Mel's people been calling, offering you parts? Glass: No, no. Ten years ago, I used to go into bars, and people would go, "Are you Treat Williams?" Hesitantly, they'd say it. So I would sort of play it up and take all the free drinks I could get! tvguide

Jan, I just checked Zap2It for you. LCS at 8pm is a repeat of last week, 9pm a new show. Last action star is on at 8pm on Wednesday according to Zap2it. I haven't watched that show. Is it good?

Oh thanks Abby  How nice of you. I like Action Star...but the ratings haven't been the best which is why they moved it! I won't be watching it at 8 on Wed though as I watch Canadian Idol then!

I thought the whole storyline with the tension between Gulman and Ant was very interesting. Even more interesting is the fact that those are the two who had agents working to get them in the house. So now I just figure the whole rivalry was rigged also - very disheartening.

I missed the first half because of BB5 but apparantly Gary Gulman and Ant had been fighting most of the episode and everyone had decided to nominate Gulman and Ant was going to let everyone nominate Gulman and Ant was going to nominate someone else so he wouldn't have to go up against Gulman (very cowardly) Anyway, Ant did vote for Gulman so the two of them went head-to-head and Ant lost - Woo hoo!!

One of the established comedians who tried out for LCS and didn't make it to the house was Will Durst. Happily, he has gone on to better things: he was on the CBS Sunday Morning show this a.m. doing political commentary, poking fun at the Kerry/Edwards ticket. He was nicely dressed in a suit and seemed perfectly at ease. He came on at 10:15, which was 15 minutes before the end of the show, so if any of you West Coast folks read this in time, you may want to watch.
