Happymom | Monday, February 17, 2003 - 11:54 am     For being a guest on the View, I thought Evan was a pretty rude guest! He even told Leah Remini (she was the guest host today) that she should be ashamed of herself or something to that effect. (That was in ref. to the editting of tv.) He said some other rude things also, especially to Leah. |
Pamy | Monday, February 17, 2003 - 02:15 pm     Less than 4 hrs to go! Are any east coasters going to post about the show while it is going on?? You all saved me last week, I came here and saw the show was a waste of time so I didn't have to sit thru it! |
Moondance | Monday, February 17, 2003 - 02:24 pm     HappyMom >He even told Leah Remini (she was the guest host today) that she should be ashamed of herself or something to that effect.< Why? What did she do? Why was he so rude... I like her on King of Queens. |
Seamonkey | Monday, February 17, 2003 - 02:45 pm     From my paper: Daydreaming of 'Joe Millionaire' ... What could the twist ending be? Here's some idle speculation. by Ellen Gray, Knight Ridder newspapers In the waning moments of Fox's bait-and-switch episode of 'Joe Millionaire" last week, butler Paul Hogan confirmed long-standing rumors of a "twist" ending for the already twisted show. Gee, what could it be? The obvious twists, of course, are the fairy-tale ones: Either faux millionaire Evan Marriott has had millions all along, or Fox will slip him a little cash once he's gotten someone to agree to marry him without it. But since we've had little to do since last week's debacle but to contemplate the vast empty spaces between Evan's ears, we've compiled a few more fractured-fairy-tale endings for tonight's show: * Evan the Uncertain, still unable to sleep, decides not to decide between substitute teacher Zora Andrich and mortgage broker's assistant and bondage-flick acresss Sarah Kozer. Next week, in Joe Millionaire: The Aftermath," all 20 of the original women reunite at the lovely chateau, where they kill and eat him. * Evan proposes to Zora and she tells him she wouldn't marry him if he'd inherited $100 million. * A crestfallen Evan then proposes to Sarah, who tells him that she, too, has fallen in love with Zora. * Paul the Butler is revealed to be a $50 million lottery winner, and HE proposes to Zora. * Paul announces plans to take in second runner-up Melissa and teach her to speak like a lady - or at least to speak english - within six months, then marry her off to an impoverished prince. The results will be aired in a series Fox plans to call "Pig-malion." * Zora, who's revealed Monday to have $50 million of her own - or at least more than $19,000 a year - offers to help pay off Sarah's student loans so she won't have to dress like a cheerleader anymore and be tied to chairs. * Alex McLeod, the hostess with the leastest (face time, that is), goes crazy and takes Paul the Butler hostage for stealing all the best lines. Sarah shows her a few knots. * Evan is revealed to be a Phi Beta Kappa Harvard graduate who's just been acting dumb for his whole adult life to see if people loved him for himself and not his brains. Zora, horrified that he's lied to her about being an idiot, rejects his proposal. * And in the most twisted ending of all, Evan proposes to Zora, who doesn't mind that he's both stupid and poor. And they live happily ever after. |
Ryanc829 | Monday, February 17, 2003 - 04:20 pm     Hi everyone, Just thought I'd check in. I miss hanging out here but school is way too hectic to have no life like I do during Big Brother, LOL. Can't wait to see what the "big twist" on JM is. |
Mygetaway | Monday, February 17, 2003 - 04:39 pm     I didn't think Evan was that rude to them.. but he did tell Leah to "zip it" ala Austin Powers. She was really giving him a hard time about the hot tub scene, and not going after Zora. He was trying to tell her that he did get out and go after her, they just didn't show that part of the tape. He said that Zora said she was cold, and that was why she was getting out. He also said that the scene where it looks like he and Melissa were going off to the bedroom, was actually just a foyer, and that they didn't do ANYTHING. He said he would never do something like that on air to his parents. One of the girls asked the parents if they were proud of him, and they said yes, very much so. |
Mygetaway | Monday, February 17, 2003 - 04:41 pm     Hey Ryan.. Nice to "see" you.. Good luck with school. |
Moondance | Monday, February 17, 2003 - 04:44 pm     Thanks MGA! |
Twinkie | Monday, February 17, 2003 - 05:12 pm     So far the show is a big yawnfest. Just interviews with all of the non-chosen girls. |
Mak1 | Monday, February 17, 2003 - 05:19 pm     Tonight's show starts with scenes of all the bootees and their comments about Evan. Asian girl felt it was a mistake to try to make a fashion statement on tv. She ditched the big sunglasses as the evening went on. She is a hula hoop champion, lol. Alison told him he should let her go, they weren't clicking. She told us that no amount of money would make her want to date Evan. Mojo said he gave up a good chance at love when he let her go, and she is NOT a gold digger. She heard people talking smut about her on the radio. Melissa had a lot of fun with him, thought he was a really nice guy, but felt something about his story wasn't right. She doesn't cook, doesn't clean, but she has other great qualities.....she's very caring and very loving. One girl noted that the last 5 girls have large breasts. This girl doesn't, and thinks it isn't an appropriate criteria for picking a possible mate. The other girls seem to feel Heidi really was a witch, but they don't want to bad mouth her. Heidi didn't see anything wrong with taking 2 gowns, we're not 5, it's not supposed to be fair. She thinks the other girls were childish, jealous when Evan helped her down off the horse. If she had been "one of the girls who decided to go into the woods with Evan" then she would have broken off with her boyfriend, of course. |
Mak1 | Monday, February 17, 2003 - 05:20 pm     LOL, I like Twinkie's summary better, that says it all. |
Mak1 | Monday, February 17, 2003 - 05:24 pm     Lots of face time for Heidi and her b/f. Evan's life before JM after commercials......childhood, underwear modeling pics. He said something about something being like an addiction, will see what that was after commercials, yawn. |
Mak1 | Monday, February 17, 2003 - 05:28 pm     Evan talking about his great upbringing, showing his parents now. He wants to be a father. The world would be a lot different place if all parents were like his. He was a loner in school, would stare out the window watching the maintenance guys. He was a skinny, unconfident kid, went in the military, got muscles and confidence. Modeling is like an addiction, didn't like it, but hard to get out, didn't feel fulfilled modeling. Feels wonderful to finish a construction job. |
Mak1 | Monday, February 17, 2003 - 05:31 pm     Evan complained a lot about the food while he was on the show. They are interviewing a couple of his friends now. One said Evan told him he would never lie to get a girl to like him, if she doesn't like him for who he is, he doesn't want her. Another friend said Evan is shy and is looking for love. Paul tells us Zora and Sarah have some very revealing secrets to share with us. Commercials...... |
Seamonkey | Monday, February 17, 2003 - 05:35 pm     Are they good commercials? |
Mak1 | Monday, February 17, 2003 - 05:37 pm     lol, even better than the show |
Seamonkey | Monday, February 17, 2003 - 05:38 pm     Can't wait to hear the "secrets". Is Paul on the show tonight?? |
Mak1 | Monday, February 17, 2003 - 05:39 pm     Sarah's friend suggested her to the casting agent. Sarah used to skip school w/friends, went to her college classes when she wanted to. She thought they had an innocent lovely time in the woods. After that the bondage film thing came out. To her it was no big deal, LA you always get all kinds of offers. |
Mak1 | Monday, February 17, 2003 - 05:40 pm     Adam Sandler and Jack Nicholson coming out in a new movie Anger Management, looks funny. |
Mak1 | Monday, February 17, 2003 - 05:41 pm     Yes, Paul is charming as usual. |
Seamonkey | Monday, February 17, 2003 - 05:42 pm     So there is a bit of redeeming value (Paul). |
Mak1 | Monday, February 17, 2003 - 05:43 pm     Tomorrow a special hour of the Best of the Worst AI auditions we haven't seen yet, should be good/bad, lol. |
Mak1 | Monday, February 17, 2003 - 05:46 pm     Paul is the redeeming value, for sure. Zora's best friend and mayor had great things to say about her. Lots of video of her helping elderly people. Shows her turning oven on to warm up her apartment, thought of selling one of the necklaces to get money to help aunt, who is ill. |
Hippyt | Monday, February 17, 2003 - 05:47 pm     OKay,I've never watched this before,just this one. Seamonkey I see you up there,isn't Alex from TS supposed to be the host of this show? It's an hour in and I haven't seen her! What gives? |
Mak1 | Monday, February 17, 2003 - 05:48 pm     Zora's people make her sound perfect, never did figure out what her secret was supposed to be. Maybe later? |
