They are all talking about how much they smell. LOL Now the bushtucker trial comes down to between Cris and John. They draw cards.....low card goes. Cris draws the low card. He has to reach into a box full of snakes and pull one out at a time and transport it to another box. He has only 3 minutes to do it. The experts come in to tell him just what to be careful of and how to pick them up.

Sorry, just got in this area. I am laughing my head off.. This show is hilarious!

The only sad part was seeing Julie go. They all really got along very well at the end.

i started out not too thrilled with this show: too mean, too serious,too boring but they have really come around in the editing and it has been really great the last few times..

Tonite was excellent! That buttsniffing was the most hubby and i have LOL'd watching tv in a long time!
And last nites letters from home segment was really sweet..

I dont think there has been a celebrity show that has done such major work in changing celeb's images.. Melissa Rivers will never be thought of as a stupid, superficial spoiled little girl again.. she has been amazing... and Stuttering John is really kickstarting a whole new career i think... I have always liked him the least of all the Stern show members.. thought he was mean, overly competitive and just a plain a**h*le, but he has come off as Americas Sweetheart and I love watching him on this show.. He will soon have more houses than Howard... And Cris Judd... who hasnt fallen for him?..he is like the nicest guy ever on TV.. the next reality show: 'America finds
Cris Judd a Nice Girl'...
Even Tyson, who I didnt really like, was loveable tonite.. It was worth the price of admission for this show just to have seen a world where Tyson Beckford and Robin Leach are bestest buddies..that tearful tribute was just unbelievable!
So is Melissa the automatic Queen, or can a guy be the Queen?
well, sorry for the long blab, but i barely ever get here anymore,so I had to get out all my reality show musings tonite..
I was gonna watch the Aaron and Helene fiasco on ABC family, cuz i missed it, but i didnt feel like being brought down after the Celeb show...
so I watched Spaghettio's on food network.. i am sure it was much more fun..

LOL, Donut!! Don't be such a stranger!!

I agree that Melissa has definitely come out as a real person, likable. And Cris is amazing.

I don't watch Stern, but John certainly seems like he's sweet in person. I also enjoyed Robin.

Donut, I agree. It was the funniest thing I've seen in a long time. I enjoyed their friendships. Their images have changed for me, too.

I've really grown to like this show a lot, too. It got off to a slow start, but I like how we've gotten to see the different personalities. It's kind of like Big Brother in that way. And everyone that I really disliked is gone, so there's not even anyone that I'm rooting against.

Loved the part where they were smelling each other. Funny stuff. :) And I was even liking Julie somewhat in the past few episodes (although I didn't think too much of her saying that Alana was so wrong for swearing, since I thought Julie was far worse by making threats).

Tyson behaved himself pretty well in the post-boot interview. I'm sure a good part of his emotion was due to the stress of being out, though.

I would say that my opinions of John and Melissa changed, but they didn't. I never thought Melissa was that bad (didn't mind her at all, really). And I didn't know enough about John to have any opinion of him at all. The same goes for Cris. Now I *love* Cris and John, and am still okay overall with Melissa.

Put me on the I love Cris bandwagon. He is a total sweetheart. It also looks like Melissa has a little crush on him too. Tonights show was very good. I've have grown to like everyone that is left...even Julie. John has got a great sense of humour. And poor Bruce...it was funny when Julie said she left in such a hurry cause she didn't want to hear anymore Bruce stories. It was a little reminisent of BB1 with them standing there at the end yelling we love you Julie. It reminded me of the guys screaming we love you Brittney when she was voted out.

I think this episode had me laughing the hardest. That smell contest was hilarious.

I'm wondering more and more about the editing, though. I never would've guessed that Julie was so anxious to leave. I also noticed that all her campmates had wonderful things to say about her, which the producers didn't air until after she was voted out. Maybe since they knew she wanted to leave they were trying to help her get ejected.

I had noticed from the beginning that Alana was the person who had the most bleeping on the show, but didn't realize this was why the others were getting irritated with her. I assumed it was just because of the whining and sarcasm. Now it makes sense that after the others had agreed to have that talk with her to air their grievances they showed a clip of them talking about the use of 4-letter words. At the time I didn't make the connection and thought maybe the producers had complained about it the way the Big Brother people did.

Add to this the way everyone seemed so shocked that Tyson was ousted and you have to wonder what they're editing out. There must've been some reason they were all assuming Tyson would win. There must've been a lot more to him that we didn't see.

Well, Robin did warn that the editing wasn't giving an accurate portrayal. I just hate that. Now I'm even wondering what Chris is really like.

Muse, i agree!
It is kinda like BB, esp. the first season where we voted so they bonded while we booted..
and whats with julie not liking alana for swearing, when she is pals with John, the swearing king??
by the way when you mentioned Tyson and the "stress of being out"...my mind jumped to some articles I saw online which contemplated his sexual orientation...(he did get awfully jealous when he thought Bruce was trying to 'take away' cris..

Julie really tends to use tunnel vision.. she was so worried about her daughter being hurt but not Alana's daughter??

I think it was just her hate for Alana, not the actual swearing, that bothered her so much.

Seamonkey, I agree with you.
Donut, I am coming away with way different impressions about the celebrities. The ones I thought I would like, I don't and vice versa.

Editing, Editing, Editing....

We don't know how much Alana swore or not.

Alana did threaten Julie before Julie threatened Alana. Alana's threat was only shown once. Julie's was shown repeatedly because it made better TV....

I didn't end up liking Alana or Julie much but I thought Julie was unrelentingly snarky to Alana, petty stuff like refusing to celebrate when Alana got 10 stars, refusing to even LOOK at her. She did EXACTLY what she later dissed Tyson for doing. But anyway, both are gone.

Cris is the best surprise of this whole thing.

Bruce is actually as annoying as Alana but he puts it in a rah-rah package. Both are pretty high maintenance, needing attention and approval.

I wonder if the bushtucker trial tonight will be what John fears most, having to eat creepy crawlies?

Ya gotta think they are going to make him eat creepy crawlies just 'cause he has shown such an aversion and fear of doing so....

I feel bad for him. That is one challange I know I'd have a hard time with...
