Kailas | Wednesday, September 10, 2003 - 02:32 pm     ....Is nerve-wracking! First of all, no one wanted the blimp ride. Secondly, no one wanted to compete in the obstacle course and then to make misery worse, we had to listen to all the fake cheering and "carrying on" by non-actors who had been coached beyond their ability to be believable. Then....no pictures of what they were seeing. Just "inside the cockpit" non action. It was a good idea that should have been discussed early in the DR to get HG reactions and thrown out before all the money was spent. Something else would have been more worth the money and worth our time. The HG or public could have given them better ideas if they had asked. |
Crossfire | Wednesday, September 10, 2003 - 02:37 pm     Robert was genuinely excited about the prospect of a Blimp ride. |
Stingerman | Wednesday, September 10, 2003 - 04:55 pm     I don't think so Crossfire. I think he was told in the DR to go promote it and make it sound like the best thing since sliced bread. All these yahoo's want is Cash "COLD HARD CASH" and that's it. It was pretty easy to see they were faking it even on the TV edited version. |
Gina8642 | Wednesday, September 10, 2003 - 05:20 pm     I don't think any money was spent. And, if any did - it went from GoodYear to BB/CBS. It was one big advertisment for GoodYear. I still say a blimp ride was an excellent prize. So was just getting out of the house. So was getting to spot Jay Leno. Maybe not a big deal to someone from L.A. - but I think it's pretty cool. |

Busydizzle | Wednesday, September 10, 2003 - 08:47 pm     I think the fake acting was supposed to be sarcastic. They made it pretty clear that nobody was really excited but Robert. It was hilarious when Jun was cheering for Erika and talking about how fast she was going when she obviously wasn't. LOL |
Chy | Wednesday, September 10, 2003 - 09:36 pm     I thought you were going to talk about Ali's fake crying when she did the send-off speech to Erika. Dave & Amanda promoted T-Mobil's tex-messaging in tonight's show also. At this close to the end time, cash has to be on everyone's mind. Each of them made it this far, when the prospect of the Big cash wasn't that clear, it makes sense Hgs would rather have other more tangible prize like a brand new car or cold cash. |
Whoami | Wednesday, September 10, 2003 - 09:49 pm     Fake acting? Isn't acting and fake the same thing anyway? So how can acting be fake? That would make it a double negative, and therefore what you are seeing is real!  |
Kalekona | Wednesday, September 10, 2003 - 09:58 pm     maybe it should have been "BAD" acting instead of fake acting... |
