The promo shows clips of George in some of his unique clothing and hair hues. I got a kick out of his statement that he WAS the Big Brother show.

Really?I couldn`t say for sure since i didn`t follow the first one regulary except a few segments and the occasional look at(then free)live feeds.I do recall a controversy erupting over his hometown placing a large number of calls to keep him in the house when viewers had the vote in that first season.He probably made an impact there,lol.

I'm watching this now. Just saw the Tonya interview. BTW, how many kids does she have? (said with sarcasm) Could she have mentioned it any more? LOL But then if I had her body, I'd probably mention it a few times too. LOL

I can`t blame her for that much either,lol.I noticed her saying she talked to Chiara,so they`re still close.Too bad the Playboy thing fell through,however,there is``Over 40``magazine.In a way,i was feeling bad for Tonya and the others featured,just grasping for straws that don`t seem to be there.

Me too, Triplexxx. Chicken George...he's lost his mind. He has lots of enthusiasm, though! And I feel so bad about Tonya. She was one of my favorite BB3 HouseGuests, and now she's greeting customers at a car dealership?? That is not where she belongs, she deserves better. I wish I could help her!! What a shame...hopefully things will look up for them all.:)

I wasn't feeling badly for Tonya or George, but I WAS feeling just "plum awful" for George's father, who "hated his job and never had the opportunities" that George had [insert George choking up]. That's right - he never had the opportunity to stretch a condom over his scalp and then cover it with a naked turkey carcass, all the while practicing the words "turkey testicle festival" in his backyard while the camera zoomed in on his big white belly. George, George, George.....

Thanks for the excellent recaps, everyone. I missed this show, but now I don't feel bad about it.

Thanks for that review, Bunny, glad I skipped another chance to see the chicken man!

I also posted my reactions in the other thread (link above).. I thought it was terribly sad.

Brought back just how I felt about George ( in my personal ALL TIME LOW for reality tv, I spent $200 calling in to vote him out).. (the shame of it all).

Totally deluded, all of them.

And Bunny has it right on.. I'm sure George's father was spinning in his grave.

Seamonkey, hahaha, LOLOLOLOL! I think I spent the same amount calling to vote him out as well. For me, I could NOT STAND George. I detested him on BB1. I have to agree with what Goddessatlaw wrote in the other thread; I, too, was secretly wishing the bikers would beat the crap out of him. Ugh, George and Roddy, two BB contestants who just bugged the living daylights out of me.

*deep breath* Ok, I feel better now.

I finally got a chance to watch this on Tivo and I was disappointed. The show was too long for the amount of material and number of reality stars interviewed. I think I would rather have seen a couple of minutes updating what many more of the BB houseguests are up to now than a long peice on Tanya and George. Tanya always irritated me talking about things that would send the camera to the FOTH. I don't care for George's over the top humor but I'm glad he is having fun and enjoying life after BB instead of whining about how it ruined his chances to be a star.
