Wink, according to TVGuide there's a show next week, just no description. TVGuide could also be wrong, but I'm betting we see some one-on-one dates next week. The following week is two hours: one hour recap and then the one hour "pick and tell". Then the third week is the follow up.

Unfortunately this show isn't live.. if it was live we could ferverently hope that
Joe Millionaire: The Aftermath would end with Evan and the Producers in the hospital at the hands of the women, while Paul gives a lovely gift to HIS favorite, she accepts and it is revealed that all along, he was the millionaire.

So much for fantasies..

Joe Millionaire Ponders Future
Feb 3, 8:58 AM EST

LOS ANGELES (AP) -- If someone were to offer Evan Marriott a part in some TV show, he'd take it.

He said he'd "be stupid not to." Now that "Joe Millionaire" is nearing the end, Marriott is thinking of his future.

"If nothing happens on the TV end when the show is over, then I'll go back to construction," Marriott told reporters. "I'm not expecting anything to happen in TV." But the reason he wanted to do the Fox reality series is because he was "at a crossroads" in his life where he wanted to do something else in his career.

"I felt guilty as the show went on," he told reporters. "Because I thought as you become closer to the people that you're interacting with — the people being the girls — you want them to know the truth. That's a natural human reaction."

By the end of Monday night's episode, there are just two women left.

Marriott said before the Fox hit, he wasn't sure what he wanted to do for a living.

"I was entertaining the thought of become a personal trainer," he said. "I was entertaining the thought of maybe starting my own construction business again, somehow. And so, then this came along. And it's gotten so much press and it's gotten so much media attention, that if something did come of it to do another show, I'm going to take the opportunity."

How sad that he seems to think of himself as a potential "star". I'm not watching the show because of him, I'm watching the show because of its train wreck appeal. And when it's over, and the train is off the tracks, I certainly won't go looking for my "Joe fix". He is delusional.

a long time ago i said he should 'strike while the iron is lukewarm', because that is all the lummox is going to get. and that was before i disliked him as much as i do now, after having seen him for a few more weeks! talk about 'milking it for all it's worth', his cow should drop dead by now!

he is the perfect example of 'no lights are on, and if he's home, he doesn't know it.' it's one thing to think, okay, the producers edit the hell out of the show and decided he needs to act contrite and upset by his 'lies' to the gals...the whole, contrived show...
but to see him on anything, and everything, and he's still a lumbering, neanderthal in dirty clothes and with nothing intelligent to say; it's just embarrassing to watch! i'm sure he'll end up at belly's as a bouncer or something soon. as long as they leave the lights on and tell him where he is.

Hmmmmm...I wonder where he'll show up next?
Maybe he'll be asked to audition for an upcoming installment of "The Surreal Life" since they need to cast a former reality star.
And maybe he'll come off alot differently-kinda like Jerri is! She has really come a long way in the personality department-which is a nice suprise!
Don't mind me.I'm just tryin' to be positive here,LOL!
Maybe I'm positively on the wrong track!!

He did look like a homeless person on American Idol last night. Not only were his cloths dirty and wrinkled, they totally lacked any kind of style. Can't Fox afford a stylist for this doofus?

I can't believe he thinks he's going to be an ACK-TOR. The only reason I watch this show is that I want to see him get kicked to the curb when the "girls" find out he has no money. I still think Paul is the star of the show!

Maybe he'll find work on a Soap Opera.The medium has resorted to casting former models and inexperienced actors since they don't require large salaries.
I give up! I don't know where he could end up next!

He could get a part as the giant brother who fried his brain with drugs or something equally traumatic that left him mute and braindead...

I am hung up on the fact that the producers said that America would find the ending very satisfying. What the heck could it be?

The only thing I can think of is if he finds out the girl he picked is a drag queen.

That would be pretty satisfying to me.

Satisfying to me is what I already said.. that they let all the women lose on Evan, he is hospitalized and Paul makes the choice and goes off happily ever after :)

Wouldn't it be ironic if the "twist" to the show is that Evan is exactly what Fox has said all along and the reason he is such a duffus is that he really is just an average "Joe" who would rather dress in ratty clothes and drink beer and oogle girls nippage, than dress natty and wine and dine high class, and has never been taught how to open a bottle of champaign, or be graceful on TV. We are all so sure that there is a double twist, we would really be surprised. Of course I am not sure if that would fit into the "America will be satisfied" category.

hey, if they think each 'rose choice' at the end of bachelorette is 'the most shocking one yet', they might think america would 'be satisfied'!

Good one Tabby!
Yeh.. I see Evan as a (less than) average guy, and we will be satisfied when he picks Zora, who is really rich herself (or will inherit when she marries) but she dumps him because he lied! She's so insecure because her family put her on the back burner all her life and she was raised by the housekeeper.
LOL.. Don't know.. :)

Here's a link of our favorite "Dorkalufagus" (thanks Babyjax ) watching Sarah's foot fetish video on an interview show.

I am convinced that once they find out he's not a millionaire, if indeed there's not some double twist, they'll be out the door. I just don't see any of these women falling in "love" with Evan. Almost everyone of them has commented that he's kind of rough around the edges and needs work. Somehow I've always gotten the impression that they're really saying "Show me the money and I'll work on the rest.....".

I think the irony is that both Sarah and Melissa would have said yes to him, when he declared himself a pauper, but not meant it. Zora will say no to him when he tells her, but not because of the lack of money, but because of the fact that he's been lying about it all this time. You can't expect someone to be honest with you when you're not being honest with them.

I think that person (sorry, can't find the post) above has a great idea: if the girl says yes to Evan, he can chose her or $1M but not both. Or the girl can chose Evan or $1M but not both. Nyah hah hah.

"Zora will say no to him when he tells her, but not because of the lack of money, but because of the fact that he's been lying about it all this time."

Actually..if Zora is anything like me..I'd be insulted that he actually thought money mattered to me..not the fact that he lied about it..but the fact that he believed "I" would be the type of woman that it would an issue..

They are making all of these women to appear to be gold diggers..when I honestly don't believe they are..stereotyping women that the 50mil matters in some way..

Even if Evan had 50+mil..he's a dofus who views women with "hot rocket bodies"..absolutely shallow..and the attitude "does she want me or the money" when it doesn't appear that he has even tried to get to know these women..just the basic assumption that the 50mil is important factor..

I don't know any woman personally who would date a man just because he had money..not saying there aren't women out there that would..but for the most part women aren't that way..and I just want to bop who ever created this show..and if you were going to do this..have someone who has a bit of class..most men at the age of 28 don't refer to women as objects..I have too much respect for men to believe that this "joe" is an "average joe"..

rant over..

"I haven't gotten any 'Daddy, where are you?' cards on Father's Day," Joe told Nancy.

Am I the only one who doesn't find that in the least bit funny and also finds it rude?
