Jana...in my TV book at 10 PM on TLC the show is listed as "Family Undercover: Living W/Camera". Is this the same show? I'll check it out. TLC usually has good programing. Thanks for the heads up!

Shmoopie....not to worry ! My computer & TV are positioned so that I can watch both ! Big problem is that the Band O-Town (watched on Friday nights earlier this season as they became a group) is to perform on "Miss America" (gag). So many things to watch and only so many !

Jana...well, that certainly was a different take on reality! I think I learned a little too much about the itty-bitty creatures in their (and ours I presume) lives! Overall it was pretty !!!!

Sylvia, did you actually LIKE O-Town's performance on the Miss America pageant? I thought they gave one of the worst live performances I've ever heard. Just curious.

I knew about headlice, dustmites and fleas. But OMG, I had NO IDEA about those very gross worm parasites that invade the scalps of balding men!! How gross was that.....!! Once they started on all those multilegged creatures....I was glued to my set.

Great program. A tad different than what I expected from the "24/7" grabber, but most interesting none the less.

Thanks for the heads-up!

Rooting4Curtis.....I'm glad you said that! I was horrified!!!!!!!!! After watching them come togeather as a band and hearing them perform during that process I was exstatic to be able to see them do an actual performance.

Well, I was sooooooo embarrassed...for them, the audiance and for myself! Besides singing flat and not in harmony of any sorts...the words of that particular song on that show was outrageous.

Basically the song was about a wet dream not exactly right for Miss America...would have fit right in with our BB boys conversation the night Jamie was banished (by the way...to me, a 53 year old widow, that was one of the funniest nights of my life! ).

Actually the Miss America show this year was quite good. Very peppy and fast moving.

Back to O-Town...no wonder I haven't heard anything about them since the show ended. I'm so disappointed ! So much talent wasted!

Sorry about the rant!

Sylvia & Rooting4Curtis, I also was a huge Making the Band fan. I loved Ikaika the most, but really like his replacement, Dan. I was so embarrassed by their performance. I am tone deaf, but I could even tell they sounded awful. My husband always has said they were not very good, when I would make him watch the show. He just shook his head after watching the Miss America performance. YIKES!!!

I did enjoy watching Miss America this year. I really thought Donny & Marie did a great job as the host & hostess. Donny's performance was much better then O-Town's. Also, we only had to watch 5 perform in the talent competition.

Did you know that Brian, Mike & Ikaika (other O-Town alumni) have formed a band called LMNT(pronounced element)? I found this information on Brian's website. They all have really good voices, so hopefully they will have more success then O-Town.

Bearcatuc....could you share any of the website URL's you have on O-Town and any alumni sites.

I had one for Ikaika (what a gorgeous guy) but managed to loose it amidst all the papers with websites scibbled on them for later purusal.

Thanks in advance!

Sylvia,

Here are a few websites you requested. Bryan's
site has a lot of links, so you could spend hours
viewing the various sites. Ikaika's family site no longer works.
