I kinda lost it for Alton back when his girlfriend at home called and thought she was pregnant (so she hadn't been an ex very long for him) and he was badmouthing her (and the women in the house were too)..

I like them all in one way or another but some are awfully catty.

Yes.. in Boston and in Chicago they worked with kids, mostly a good thing (except when Montana let the kid drink wine and was canned)

The group in Hawaii had a similar gig for Local Motion but they actually worked at it. Every season has slackers but this season takes the cake.

Did anyone see the previews for tonights show? I saw more hurling (of objects) than I recalled.

Based only on the previews, if Irulan is not tossed for her antics then its only because Alton decided to let her get away with it.

They had to decide amongst themselves when there was that problem with Brynn, so perhaps that'll happen with Irulan too. If it was a majority decision I'd have thought the three girls at least would be on her side.

Another one of those "don't believe the previews" episode. What seemed to be billed as a major fight was just them playing around. Sheesh...when will we ever learn.

Exactly.. probably never will we learn.. amazing how Irulan didn't get her chance to baby-talk to Gabe and was rather abrupt when he didn't come to heel..

Loved the way Gabe responded to Irulan, and loved even more the way she held on to the phone after he hung up, like she didn't believe he was actually gone.

She got more annoying tonight.. sounded like she walked out on a partially paid for bed at home, told her mom she told her to let it go but mom felt she owed her money on it. Then mom called to tell Arissa there was a bench warrant out on her, which Arissa didn't really want to hear.. then her uncle showed up unannounced (called) and he was in Vegas.. he tried to talk to her about having a bench warrant at home, if she was stopped in Vegas she'd be held (i highly doubt that) but she did allow to us that maybe she'd call the court at home to tell them she wasn't in town. Then she got mad because her uncle wanted her time and her roomates were taking her out to dinner for her birthday.. So.. she'd getting an Irulan style birthday and presents (after she hinted about it).. I'm guessing there has to be more between Arissa and her uncle or she'd have simply invited him along.

Frank had a friend visit, it was all angst..

Yeah.. the uncle is yelling at Arissa for "blowing him off" (she TOLD him she was going to dinner).. then he pouted that she had stuff to send home with him but now he couldn't.. so he guilt tripped Arissa who is now taking the stuff to him.

He's hassling her for choosing her friends over him.. (Well in my unqualified opinion he's a total jerk.. and now it comes out that she invited him for dinner.. I can see why she feels the way she feels).

So after Emily (Frank's friend) is back home, he calls her and tells her he wants a relationshhip with her.. snork.

Mom is back on phone with Arissa.. mindgames.

OMG.. I know why Arissa stayed in Vegas, if she did.

Next week.. looks like Trishelle's coming on to Frank bigtime.. guess him telling her he now is in relationship with Emily is a big turnon :)

YAY.. Osbourne time!!

(More entertainment in 30 seconds of Osbournes than RW.. Ozzy got some icy-hot in a rubdown but it got on some tender private areas.. he stumbles out to tell others and Jack tells him "now you can hit the high notes")

I wanted to amend my statement above, actually I don't mind frank, or the gal that hasn't been seen nor heard much since she had the two guys out for a date.

but the rest of them are nuts.

Arissa has some serious family issues - loads of mind games there.

i felt sorry for arissa, and her family, as ryn said, has issues. if the mother returned the bed why should arissa pay her for it? and how could there be a warrant for her when she is in vegas and not in boston to do any harrassing(sp)? im sure rw's legal department is doing something about that. and i can also see why she stayed in vegas, hopefully she got a job or something.

Arissa seems to have what I would call a "toxic family." Lots of dysfunction and manipulation going on there. I felt bad for her and hope the Las Vegas experience opened her eyes to her own inner strength and the reality that she doesn't HAVE to deal with all that stuff. Just because you are related to someone doesn't mean you HAVE to have a relationship with them. Sometimes the family you CHOOSE is much healthier for you than the family you were born into.

wow, poor Arissa, her mom was just awful last night. Seems like her mom practically hates her. Her uncle is a total idiot. He expected her to blow off all her friends on her birthday to spend the day with him???? what's that all about? She invited him, he said no, that's his problem. I feel sorry for anyone with such a screwed up family.

As for the previews... Trishelle obviously needs to be "wanted" all the time and it's obvious she'll throw herself at anyone, obviously she's gonna do that to Frank next week, not cuz she's a bad girl, just who she is. Hopefully it wont ruin his newfound relationship.

Yeah I agree re: Arissa's family.. you could see my 'tude changing directions as I watched (I was typing while watching).

The bed.. I don't think it was a matter of returning it for a refund, but letting it be repossessed and the mom apparently had fronted the money already spent.. but clearly there is bad blood all round in that family.

If Trishelle ruins Frank's relationship, he'll be partly to blame.. no one told him to climb up on that mechanical bull behind her :)

Maybe she's not a bad girl, but she's a girl who should know better.. she's pretty free with her opinions about all the others..

Ah well, a new episode in a week...

Last week I got back from visiting the same resort in Australia (Contiki's Great Keppel Island Resort) where the Real Worlders vacationed... where Alton allegedly had that "threesome." (By the way, for what it's worth, the staff members I met all remembered Alton. They said he hung out with the staff and they uniformly said that he was their favorite.)

I wrote a review/article about the resort for a Web site. Here's the link:

Dates me, but I watched the First Real World way back when .... something about this contrived reality show, keeps me returning. This show is just plain sleazy though ... but I still watch .. anyway - Arissa surely has issues - what with that facilitation/trust outbound thingy and the fight - and the boyfriend's visit - and all the tears and fighting - and then there is the Mother thing - and the uncle - but as to the bench warrant - there probably is/was one issued because she was summoned to apepar in court to answer to the harassement charge - certainly RW legal will be able to "guide" her to clear it up - but it is a real warrant issue by the presiding judge/magistrate when she did not appear to answer the summons.

Soooooo

Frank kisses trishelle and feels bad and calls his g/f and tells her. He explains it to trishelle and she tells the camera she thinks he was being melo-dramatic, "it was only a kiss"

umm yeah trishelle and for you that might not be much but to some people its a big deal - lol

OK.. watched my tape this morning.. Arissa breakes up with Gabe, Arissa cries.

This week.. Trishelle (and I KNOW some of you feel sorry for her, but..) is more than a bit hypocritcal.. She's being so "responsible" but goes off to California to play with Frank but she accuses Arissa of slacking off.. even though it seems that the others worked quite well with Miss Tease out of town.

She seems to have insatiable needs to win every guy and other relationships be d&mned..

What Trishelle needs is to GET SOBER and then feel her feelings before she continues grinding and sleeping her way through all available and unavailable men..

And it seems that Frank isn't the voice of reason anymore.

Bleh.
