Rabbit | Monday, January 06, 2003 - 07:28 pm     Webkitty, I would have asked but I didnt see your post. Besides Fruitmum feels I still need her royal advise as I am still pretty new at this Prince thing. |
Webkitty | Monday, January 06, 2003 - 07:35 pm     Right you are Rabbit, I will bow to HRH on this, carry on.......... |
Seamonkey | Monday, January 06, 2003 - 07:43 pm     LOVE the link!!! "California MUSCLE??".. well I know SOME call that area muscle, but... with pants that tight, who needs a jock strap? I'm taping PBS (Lance Loud! A Death in an American Family. This is putting closre to the original reality tv.. from 1971.. never saw it but this sounds interesting) and will be watching 7th Heaven and Everwood (will blip to Joe in commercials) and then watch RR/RW battle of sexes at 10. So.. I don't think I'll be missing much with Joe and based on posts here, I hope Heidi is out soon However, I'll read any details posted here.. "Mouth breathers" That is priceless!!!! |
Ryn | Monday, January 06, 2003 - 07:54 pm     Will I watch it next week - if I remember, Actually my Reality viewing night went thus..... Fear Factor (candy - not very filling)) Joe Millionaire (veggies - not very good...) RW/RR Battle - Desert (the best of the 3 - ohhh Puck is baaaackkk - lol). Hard to top 36 former RW/RR's on one show  |
Muse | Monday, January 06, 2003 - 08:09 pm     Okay, I've gotta admit it...I really enjoyed the show. It was cheesy, but it kind of made fun of its own cheesiness (kind of like the whole premise of the show). It's a nice break from The Bachelor, where everything was treated sooo seriously. I totally agree that the butler was great. I was also amused by Evan's slipups - like when he tripped trying to get on the horse, and when he panicked when someone asked what his middle name was. Didn't get a strong impression of the personality of the women (although that might very change as after a few more episodes), hated Alex and her stilted lines. Other than that, I liked it. I'm still undecided on whether I like Evan or not, however. |
Juju2bigdog | Monday, January 06, 2003 - 08:22 pm     Here's a thing that didn't ring true for me. I don't think 28 year olds in construction get to run the bulldozer. 28 years olds in real construction jobs do the backbreaking grunt work. Fat 55 years olds run the bulldozers. |
Kady | Monday, January 06, 2003 - 08:35 pm     The only two girls I liked was the curly haired one and the one she traded dresses with. The rest seemed like real witches. It must be a short run with 8 leaving tonight and 7 next week. |
Ladytex | Monday, January 06, 2003 - 08:39 pm     I was pleasantly surprised. I really expected to hate this show, but I didn't. I'm waiting for the catfights! |
Pamy | Monday, January 06, 2003 - 08:58 pm     So far the butler is reminding me of the butler in Arthur, and I loved him Heidi= Jerri with a splash of Nicole |
Pamy | Monday, January 06, 2003 - 09:00 pm     I also like the fact that the girls are not all lily white |
Cyn | Monday, January 06, 2003 - 09:01 pm     He's all over the TV here in NYC. The announcers - men and woman - are gushing all over him. They are saying he is so nice and so sweet. The local FOX channel did an interview with him tonight in their sturdio. He gave a hint that the woman he chose was the sweetest, but he did not have plans to marry her. He said, "I love NY woman." |
Jhezzie | Monday, January 06, 2003 - 09:18 pm     You would think they could have washed his hair for the ball, ya know? It looked like he had been camping for days and got back too late to shower. |
Max | Monday, January 06, 2003 - 09:49 pm     My favorite moment was when the butler was teaching him about what wine goes with different kinds of food and he asked, "fois gras?" 'Joe' looked at him and said, "What's that?" The look on the butler's face was priceless! He seems like a pretty sweet guy, but kind of dense -- as in not a quick thinker. It was entertaining and of course I'll watch again! LOL Alex McCloud sure had a terrible job as "host"! They hardly showed her at all, instead showing the women as she clearly READ her lines. Her delivery was so bad that it seemed almost like she'd never seen the material before. Geez, what a terrible role to land in after hosting Trading Spaces. |
Jhezzie | Monday, January 06, 2003 - 10:08 pm     No kidding about him not being a quick thinker, Max. When that girl asked him his middle name, he about came apart, lol. |
Misslibra | Monday, January 06, 2003 - 10:53 pm     Jhezzie when he couldn't think of his middle name that was funny. And did you notice the girls didn't even notice how long he took to answer the question. He stumbled a few times. And the girls didn't notice a thing. To busy gazing into his eyes I guess. Webkitty after following Grooch's link and reading your post about him needing a blow... then dryer starts a new line, well lets just say my thoughts were not pure. And I have that link to thank for that. I wont blame it on Grooch this time. LOL |
Hummingbird | Monday, January 06, 2003 - 10:54 pm     I missed this because it is on opposite "Third Watch." Dang! I'll have to remember to tape it next week. |
Seamonkey | Monday, January 06, 2003 - 11:18 pm     MissL.. I had the same "distraction" over WebKitty's blow... dryer post.. I caught a few snippets tonight during other commercials (I was watching Everwood and also flipping to MTV) and his hair is GROSSLY greasy and looks like he let a five year old have his way with it with some dull scissors.. twice I heard him muse about being in up to his waist.. odd choice of words. shrug. |
Misslibra | Monday, January 06, 2003 - 11:23 pm     Sea I'm glad I wasn't alone. |

I dated a construction worker once, and believe it or not, he was a dead ringer for Evan, they even sound alike, same deep voices and everything. Anyway, my point was that yes, as long as you have your lisence to operate heavy equipment you can operate the big boys. Especially if it's a smaller company like my ex's place. Everyone there did a lttle bit of everything. Thank GOD he made more than 19 G's a year. That's just insane! My ex made 18 dollars an hour...and that was years ago. What does 19 G's a year (based on a 40 hour week) come out to per hour...a little over 9 bucks an hour I think? And that's if he's lucky enough to work somewhere where the weather permits 52 week work years (minus the month long mandatory construction holiday, that is). 9 bucks an hour...it's insanity I tell ya!  |
Seamonkey | Tuesday, January 07, 2003 - 12:02 am     I never heard of any mandatory construction holiday here.. but in California the weather permits lots of weeks of work.. specially southern, where he apparently is now. Capistrano Beach according to his driver's license on The Smoking Gun. |
Trulyscrumtious | Tuesday, January 07, 2003 - 12:37 am     Really...? Weird. Maybe its just a Canadian thing? Or a Quebec thing? Or maybe, if you don't work in the field or know anyone who does you just have never heard of it before. I know I had zero clue what he was talking about when he mentioned it. I was like...YEAH....RIGGGGGGHT!!!! And he was like....I'M SERIOUS!!!! And I was like...NO WAY!!! And he was like...WAAYYYYYYY!!! And I was like...SO WHERE ARE WE GOING ON VACATION...ITALY??? And he was like...KEEP DREAMING BABY!!! And I was all ---> - TS  |
Ryn | Tuesday, January 07, 2003 - 05:17 am     Just an FYI, someone mentioned this show won't last long since they are cutting the #'s down quick. Per the official site, the show is seven episodes, so just six more to go. |
Trulyscrumtious | Tuesday, January 07, 2003 - 05:35 am     Thank God, I'm not sure how much more of Heidi I can take without climbing the nearest Bell Tower and venting a wee bit...  |
Weenerlobo | Tuesday, January 07, 2003 - 05:46 am     Juju - that's funny that you said that. D.h. saw Evan with the front loader and said if he's got a license to operate that he ain't makin $19,000/year. Hmmmm. Yep, I'd like to see Heidi get burned but good. It was funny to see all the other girls roll their eyes whenever Heidi spoke to Evan and when she received her necklace. Grooch, nice find with that Smoking Gun link. And his hair looks much better there too! |
Conejo | Tuesday, January 07, 2003 - 05:54 am     I think the back of this Guy's head looks like it's flat - or something! Don't think he is all that attractive - then again look at some of the women. So I guess they did a good job casting the women. JMHO |
