I thought the "did you buy that breast in Paris" slip was hilarious.

It's his other comments about "hot rocket bodies" and such that turn me off. I can so see him on a construction site participating in the hooting and whistling at a woman as she walks by.

The clip of him eating a sandwich while sitting on the bulldozer makes him look particularly unappealing.

I don't find Evan attractive, but he seems to be a really nice guy. I think he's kind of miscast for this role, but he's really not that bad.

Evan isn't a bad guy, actually he seems very sweet. I think he's just a simple guy, he is very testosteroni at times, but what guy isn't? I think underneath it all he really means well. After this is all over, he'll probably end up on celebrity fear factor or something.Vixen I'm glad you posted what you did as well. This forum is very therapeutic for us, I mean we can't just sit there and yell at the tv week after week.

I don't really understand why he is popping up all over the place because I don't see his appeal, but I don't fault him for that. He may as well see what he can get out of this.

He just doesn't seem like he has a lot of depth. I like men who are multi-layered and fascinating to "unpeel." I think he is perfectly fine for his role on the show. I think anyone playing this part would get a lot of criticism. It is not a classy show and practically invites us to make fun of it on many levels.

The only real satisfaction I get when they do these rip off episodes is cuz I tape it and double fast forward through the commercials!! No way I'm even considering these sponsors! LOL

Well said Hermione! I agree. I to do not understand why this guy is being shoved down our throats,but I guess it is publicity for the fox network. It's not his fault.

I agree with Vixen, too. There is something about him at times. When he is sitting down and clean shaven, he does look different than when he is walking or just standing around. One thing I keep reminding myself about is that he is not an actor and therefore doesn't come off as one. Just a regular person trying to be an actor. Granted they probably could have found someone better but they chose him for whatever reasons. Maybe when the "BIG TWIST" is known that will help us understand all the things we have questions about!! I sure hope so. This is one of those things that you keep watching hoping that somehow it's gonna turn out to be really good!! See, I am always a romantic and think the Cinderalla story is how it's gonna end! LOL

A little off lopic but not really...

Did you guys know that Evan made his tv debut on the soap opera "Days of Our Lives?" He was a mover moving a couch in a living room. The lady says, "Oh, move it back over there" and he says, "Isn't that where it was the first time?" or something to that effect. It was a segment on our evening news after Joe Millionaire last night. We, once again, found out things that we didn't know about Joe... That one I actually had not heard.

I am hearing more and more that the twist will be one of the girls was really rich, not neccesarily the last 2 girls, but one of the original 15.
If you live in LA are, KROQ does the funniest recaps on Tues mornings

The endless romantic that I am agrees with you gran. I hope that there is a happy ending(not a Darva C ending) The big twist might be a ploy to inflate rating (anybody remember Dallas)?

Maybe it isn't a twist, but.... a Pepsi Twist and at the end Evan reaches up and

ZZZZIIIIIIPPPP! he reveals the real person under that dorky facade.. with an actual hairstyle...

Hey, you never know!

So - do any of you have opinions about what Sarah and Zora think about Evan? I was a bit surprised by how cool they both were to him. Seems to be no real connection there for either of them.

I think Mojo was more engaged with him, even if she did seem to be a gold digger with her million $$ cheque.

LOL Seamonkey! I like that twist ending!

Brenda thanks for the website. Loved the article and totally agreed. I had to go back and check my tape of the show though. I didn't hear Sarah suggest he might pick the one that lives farthest away if he wasn't interested in either girl. Yep, she did and then said to Zora, "That would be you!" I wanted to reach into my tv screen and smack that smirk off of her face! I really dislike her. If he picks Zora,aprove I think they could be happy together. If he picks Sarah, disaproveit serves him right for picking the "reble" that will dump him the moment she hears he's not rich... and HA HA on her!

I was quite pissed that the show was all recap last night.furious We've seen Sarah be her usual b!tchy self and we've seen Zora be herself and ignore Sarah's tauntings. We've seen them nervous, and bored... get on with it! You won't believe the ending of Joe Millionaire? You won't believe how long they'll strech this sh!t out!

TVjunkie, gotta say that I just love your "flaming mad" smiley! At this point, I don't care for anyone anymore. But I feel like I've invested too much of my time in this piece of $h!t to not see how it turns out.

I am saying right now that I REFUSE to get sucked in by Fox into watching their "Married by America". I probably would have watched if I wasn't so ticked off at them for Joe Millionaire.

Wildone - the "very testosteronie" made me LOL! Unfortunately, I was eating my lemon chicken rice soup at the same time! I gotta remember that one. Is that Italian? LOL

Hey, I'm liking the idea of one of the girls being an heiress and Evan missing out on that. That'd be an ok "twist." However, what I'm really thinking is that no matter what kind of twist it ends up being, it's never gonna satisfy. I mean, look what happened with the last episode of Seinfeld. Lotsa deflation there.

I agree Weenerlobo. They've spent so much time and energy building up this "twist" that it's just going to fall flat. The only twist that would satisfy me is if a spaceship swooped down and took every one of the girls, Evan and Alex to the farthest reaches of the universe.

Did anyone see in USA Today and TV Guide that a Fox executive apologized for duping the viewers into thinking the choice would be made last Monday?

Has anyone else heard the gossip about Zora being an actress? My radios station said something about it. Here's my twisted scenario:
Zora is the surprise. The producers planted her there without Evan knowing the truth, just to see if she could full him into picking her.

Denecee, haven't heard that rumor before. How would the producers know that she last long enough to wind up at the end to be the surprise?

Wildone

Wednesday, February 12, 2003 - 11:57 am EditMoveDeleteIP
Zora could be the surprize. Maybe fox knew she was a psychic, and put her in the show to see how she would do. She already knew the truth so she was just stringing the others along for the sake of the show. just a thought.....

Pamy

Wednesday, February 12, 2003 - 12:07 pm EditMoveDeleteIP
I think Zora will be the one with the money, maybe that is why she always acted like she was out of her element.
The best twist would be that one of them was a man!!!..maybe that is why Zora didn't want to be seen in a bathing suit
The KROQ morning show guys are so mad at that waste of time show that they are calling for anyone with inside info to call them about the twist because they want to reveal it and take some of Fox's thunder out of Mon show

Pamy, that would be great if one of the women turned out to be a She-Man, He-Woman or however that goes!

Denecee

Wednesday, February 12, 2003 - 12:52 pm EditMoveDeleteIP
Conejo, the producers could only hope that she(Zora) stuck around long enough or they could be encouraging Evan to keep her.

The twist could somehow involve Paul, remember "the butler did it?" After working for the wealthly community he's bound to have learned a thing or two. Maybe he's the millionare and gets to pick the girl that would be right for Evan.
Thank God Only one more day until Survivor!

Last night on David Letterman, he supposedly had received another video tape of Osama Bin Laden. When he "shared" it with the TV audience, it was Bin Laden (obviously dubbed) complaining that the Fox network had duped everyone into watching Joe Millionaire on Monday night and lead them to believe his final choice would be revealed. But no!!! What's up with this sh!t? (Or something along those lines.) It was very hilarious. Wish I could remember word for word. Seems even Letterman's pissed off that Fox is stretching this out another week.

Vixen, I'll agree with you that at times Evan can be very attractive, even with the crazy hair. Unfortunately, as soon as he opens his mouth (or yet another bottle of champagne), the illusion is shattered once again. Poor guy!
