Tonights show was great!

I loved it when Rebecca wasn't picked by anyone. Hee hee. You could totally tell that it took her by surprise.

Yeah, Tim probably didn't pick the best moment to tell Cecile he wasn't interested. But it made for great TV! And, he was being honest. I give him big kudos for being gutsy. (and a super hunk, but that's a different story.........)

Proposal point was very interesting tonight, too. And poor Rebecca didn't get any pleas. I love it that these guys are willing to be such dorks. (the guy with the moose, Mr. Poetry aka Tim #2, and the guy with the fake teeth) It's quite endearing.

I really like Sissie and Brent. I suspect that they'll end up engaged at the end of all this.

Next week looks good. Looks like Christian gets some competition for Andrea. That will be good. He doesn't really want to marry her, does he?

I loved how Rebekah didn't get picked, too. I don't think it really made much of an impact on her because she's gotten so much attention in the past, but it was still good. And speaking of Rebekah - no more backless shirts, please.

I like Sissie and Brent a lot as well. They seem so normal in comparison to the rest. I thought it was sort of sweet how the one guy (Terry?) gave Sissie the $2000, but told her to keep Brent. Might as well, if he isn't really interested in any of the women. Kudos to the guy who picked no one, too, though. Nice to see some people being honest, and not just looking for camera time.

I don't understand Andrea. I find it difficult to feel sorry for her, because Kristian told her straight out how he feels. But she is very mixed up.

Tim should have probably lied, rather than dump Cecile in front of everyone. But of course she ran with it...hello, drama queen.

Karen's social skills are lacking. I don't really blame her for that (I get the impression that she's just a bit shy - although she could cut that baby voice - lol), but sheesh - why does she stay with a guy when there's obviously nothing there? I get the impression that she just wants to play it safe...I'd be shocked if she got a proposal at the end of this.

I have two words for Rebekah. EAT SOMETHING.

I also loved when (I believe his name was Doug) said that noboby floated his boat-so to speak. I wish him well :)

I still don't get how they make pleas for women they didn't date? Can anyone explain that to me?

Muse and Ketchup I agree. Did anyone else find themselves counting her vertebrae?

Ewwwwww, speaking OF...

And what's with the I'm "dressed like a woman" talk? Lots of 16 year old girls underdress in backless shirts too!

Arrgh.. I wish my tvguide wouldn't list this as
"Looking For Love" ; it just doesn't register with me at all.

I seem to have missed the first quarter of it tonight :(

But I'll watch the rest at least.. and look forward to anything that bugs Rebekah :)

Too funny.. Sissie followed Rebekah and purposely took the same guy, probably wanting to stay with her guy and that Rebekah would get picked and she didn't.. nyah nyah nyah!! And R probably expected she'd be picked first. Wow is she easy for me to dislike.

:) Yes RebekaH Please EAT! Her spine poking out like that was horrible.
I thought it was so cute for that guy to do the fisherman song & "give" Sissie & Brent the $2000. I agree that Sissy only went to the same guy as R did. as R normally does so well with the guys. LOL that she didn't get any offers!
I was not upset that Tim said he was not interested in Cecile in front of everybody...Christian set him up by asking him the question....I do not like Christian at all.

The spine poking must have been in the part I missed. And, that is a good thing, too.

The honesty is a refreshing change in a reality show. Seems reflective of Alaska, the "real men" aspect (i.e. not the Hollywood fake face-time-seekers). Yes Tim could have been a bit more tactful in his timing but he had been looking for the opportunity to tell her, and I think he just went with it. Most men seem to be somewhat less sensitive about personal issues in general. Not all, but most (IMO).

HAHAHA I laughed when Cissy got picked over Rebekkah, hooray. A dose of humility please. She handled it well though, beyond the first initial outcry.

I am so glad Cissy and Brent seem to be keeping it together, they seem really right for each other. I love happy endings. I hope we see a real proposal (although it may be too soon, but I am a die hard romantic)...

Cristian is a world class jerk for taking advantage of Andrea, and Andrea needs a reality check and a backbone. I hope the previews pan out and there are some changes made there.

Rebekkah's statement about being a "real woman" I found both amusing and insulting, of all the women there I find her far from the most womanly, by several different criteria (modesty, maturity, looks and demeanor to name a few).

I like this show but I wish they would revamp it a little bit and take the hokeyness out.

I will be watching it next week thought!

I saw the spine poking thing. How is that considered attractive by anyone? It isn't to me, but that's just me.

Besides, she is not attractive to me by virtue of her behavior. Her looks are secondary.

I missed the spine! (missed the first half of the show actually) When did they show it?

The only thing I would like to add is, that lodge they are at is REALLY nice!

Don't worry, Webkitty, it looked something like this:

Eeewwwwww! Missed the spine and boy am I glad.

Ok, look I miss the first 15 mins every week, so would someone please explain how someone becomes a "man on ice"? I usually come in when they are catching fish or shooting or something. Then they pick and I am not really following.

Abby,

Take a verrrrry tall glass, fill it with the desired amount of man, and add ice till the glass is full. Voila, man on ice. Stir and serve.

Seriously, though, the man on ice is either the first guy each woman picked back on the first show, or the man she replaced him with after one of the pleas. I guess they're called that because they have to wait "on ice" the following show while their woman goes out on a date with a new guy.

Chiming in too on the Rebekah's spine issue - I remember in third grade music class learning to play the xylophone. Last night gave me flashbacks!

Screech!!!! I'm glad I missed it!
What was she doing that her spine was showing like that?
Was she in the hotub? I've only seen bits and pieces of this show and everyone has their clothes on when I'm watching so I haven't noticed that she is that skinny.
Do you think it could be a deformity? I've know skinny people that don't have their spines sticking out..........

BTW, Webkitty, Rebekah was wearing a backless shirt, and later did a backbend as well. I'm glad she's comfortable with her body, but why do we see so much of it?!

Well Sunshinemiss thought that Andrea needed a backbone.. maybe she could borrow a cup of spine from Rebekah?

Is Cecile not the biggest drama queen you've ever seen??? She just loves being the center of attention, especially when everyone is feeling sorry for her. What he said wasn't so terrible; he was really very gentle with her. Sure, it would have been better in private, but she asks for it. And then, in the coming attractions for next week, they show her getting all dramatic about her next "Tim" also!!!!

She's a beautiful woman, but I think after each guy gets over the initial shock of her beauty, they realize there isn't anything of substance there!!
