Scorpiomoon | Thursday, January 23, 2003 - 07:52 pm     I still can't believe I am watching this show. But each time I watch it, the more I am convinced: Cory is a turd. Hammer is one of the most kind, genuine people who only wishes the best for others. I can't wait to see what they do while in Vegas next week. |
Seamonkey | Thursday, January 23, 2003 - 09:28 pm     Vince didn't get into the spirit of things when he just paid for the tickets, BUT, since the show is obviously letting them have leeway, it worked for me.. and his talent was definitely the most natural, on the spot and good for such a talent show.. I assume Jerri's poem was longer than two lines, pretty bad, but still in the spirit of the show.. But yeah, lame episode. What really bugged me about Corey was when his GF pointed out that he's hanging out at the mansion, she's trying to plan this wedding, and he said "It's my JOB".. like it was a real job or something. gimme a break. rat turd. Interesting watching people with Manny.. the host guy at one poing started to put his hand on Manny's head, like to pat it, then changed to the shoulder. I think at the end when Vince just got down so they were side by side that was a cool thing to do.. I got the feeling that Vince really enjoyed the little show, wanted to be super cool and kinda dismissive but since he went to some effort to write something original he kind of liked winning. Corey was just pimping his song and I think Vince was right on that Corey wanted to use him. |
Pamy | Friday, January 24, 2003 - 08:33 am     Just like OZzy, I am so surprised that I like Vince. I have never been a fan of that music, but I really like him. He seems like such a good person. I thought he did a great job on the song, considering he had to help/baby the rest of them and didn't have a lot of time for his. Corey...he gets worse each week, he could learn alot from Vince. I agree he was pimping his song, but it backfired cuz he sucks! Where's Simon when ya need him |
Laura11103 | Friday, January 24, 2003 - 09:00 am     This show cracks me up! Vince looked so embarrassed when Corey pointed to him and Vince had to do the background, god that was funny. I thought Corey sounded alright but he's such a total cornball albeit probably the biggest star out of all of them. I loved his movie License to Drive. Anyway, I enjoyed last night's show, but I do agree, it should be an hour, but then again so should Real World and The Challenge and just about every reality show IMO should be an hour. |
Rslover | Friday, January 24, 2003 - 09:54 am     Vince was great in the talent show. The women were pathetic. |
Squaredsc | Friday, January 24, 2003 - 11:39 am     i <14> missed it. darn. still like vince. |
Brenda1966 | Friday, January 24, 2003 - 12:32 pm     I'm liking Vince the best too. Don't know enough about Motley Crew to dislike him (even though that's not my kind of music). I noticed Monty Hall starting to pat Lewis on the head too. I think it would be real hard not to baby him since he is so small and sounds so young. Cory is a horrible singer! He wouldn't make it past round one of American Idol and yet he has a record. Poor Cory has such a hard life! ICK! This show is very entertaining. I wonder what if they'll do it again and what 'celebrities' they'll have next time. |
Weenerlobo | Friday, January 24, 2003 - 12:39 pm     This show was cute. I liked how Vince was the "soccer mom" for everyone re: the talent show. I never thought I'd like that guy as much as I do. He seems the most down to earth. When he told his girlfiend that he won the show and the master suite and Play Station, he was cute. They sound so real and mature next to Corey and his girlfriend. Corey is a selfish little thing, ain't he. Wonder how he can really believe that he is the most important person on the planet. I wish the show was an hour long too. |
Pamy | Friday, January 24, 2003 - 02:01 pm     uuuhummmh Square, this isn't the Osbourne thread! LOL |
Curlyq | Friday, January 24, 2003 - 02:56 pm     I'll bet if they do this again they won't have as much trouble getting more celebrities to do it. With the success of The Osbournes I'll bet there are a lot of celebrities who'd like the opportunity to jump on the bandwagon without having to bring their families into it. Does anyone know how the ratings are for this show? At the show's website there's an amusing clip showing Corey getting offended when he found out the grocery store bag boy was commenting on their meager tip. |
Whoami | Friday, January 24, 2003 - 02:58 pm     Has there ever been someone as full of himself as Corey? The boy is completly delusional! He thinks he is so much more than he really is. Get a clue Corey. You're on a show of HAS BEENS! The rest of the cast seem quite comfortable with that status. What, you think they cast the show with all has-beens and one star? Oh brother! |
Babyjaxmom | Friday, January 24, 2003 - 05:10 pm     OMG, I felt so sorry for Corey's GF when she was stressing about the wedding and he went all, "You're raising your voice with me and I'm hanging up now." What an <>!!!!! If this poor girl goes through with the wedding, she must be <> than he is. I never thought I could hate anyone more than Jerry Manthey, but she's almost nice compared to him. I'm really loving Vince and MC. What a couple of sweethearts! Why isn't this show an hour???? |
Squaredsc | Friday, January 24, 2003 - 06:58 pm     sorry pamy, i keep forgetting that.  |
Pamy | Friday, January 24, 2003 - 07:10 pm     it's ok Square, see ya in the Osbourne thread! I love that thread!!! |
Scorpiomoon | Friday, January 24, 2003 - 10:42 pm     Baby: Re: Corey: I TOTALLY AGREE! |
Sweetbabygirl | Saturday, January 25, 2003 - 12:29 am     Corey, Corey, Corey.....YOU NEED A SERIOUS REALITY CHECK!! This <> actually thinks that he will be put on the A-list after doing this show. I'm still traumatized about that 'song' he did. I think Emmanuel Lewis should have won; although I admit, my cousin and I laughed our asses off at the 'Ruff-Neck' Manny. He and Hammer are the best things about this show. |
Lyn | Saturday, January 25, 2003 - 06:19 pm     I was just at the Jam TV Listings and they have the 90 minute Surreal Life as: Episode 1 - Camping (repeat) Episode 2 - Talent Show (repeat) Episode 3 - Vegas/Church Vegas/Church The housemates carouse in Las Vegas, and then head back to Los Angeles for a church service led by MC Hammer All of these are listed as 30 minute episodes. I was under the impression [from the previews] that the Vegas show was 90 minutes. Does Jam/Zap2It have it wrong? |
Sanfranjoshfan | Saturday, January 25, 2003 - 06:27 pm     The new tv guide lists next Thursday as having the camping episode (30 min), followed by the talent show episode (30 min), followed by the Vegas episode (30 min)....all back to back from 8pm to 9:30 pm |
Trulyscrumtious | Saturday, January 25, 2003 - 09:41 pm     Quote:Originally posted by Azlen: The guy that Simon sent out to find a singer worse than him, I think he might have found him if he was watching the WB tonight. Corey was just awful.
Oooooh, poor, poor Edgar...that <> is probably STILL out there searching..lmao! |

Essence | Tuesday, January 28, 2003 - 07:17 am     from http://www.realitytvworld.com/index/modules.php?op=modload&name=News&file=article&sid=906 'Surreal Life's Corey Feldman "shocked" at bad press and "has-been" label Wow, if there were any doubts about Corey Feldman's self-absorbed delusions before, this week's TV Guide Insider interview seems to have eliminated them. In an interview with TV Guide, Feldman says he's shocked at the bad press he's getting over his appearance on The WB's "The Surreal Life" series, claims that he's "not a publicity ," and takes some shots at fellow housemate Jerri Manthey of "Survivor 2" fame. "I've never had worse press over anything in my life - including drug arrests! - than I have over this show," says Feldman. "I have never been called a 'has-been' in my career, until I did this show. That's a true fact. I've been called a lot of labels, and last summer, I wrote my Former Child Actor album about that." "I've always been 'former teen star' or 'former drug addict.'" "With this, it's like, 'has-been, loser, C-lister, D-lister,' and I'm like, 'Why did I sign onto this thing? This is terrible!'" Never been called a "has-been?" Sure Corey... whatever you say. Psst -- just because you might not have been listening, doesn't mean that people weren't saying it. On the topic of his upcoming "ultimate publicity " on-screen wedding Feldman says " "The most important thing to be clarified above all is, in no way was it my idea to get married on the show," he insists. "I'm not a publicity . The producers suggested it, and we hashed it out for days." The wedding decision is apparently the cause of some of his friction with Manthey, according to Feldman "Jerri said, 'You don't want to get married on TV. These reality shows suck and they'll twist things.' I think the key to her resentment against me is that I didn't take her profound advice." "Now," Corey continues, "Jerri's just taking cheap shots at me, in an obvious attempt to get her 15 minutes in the spotlight. To me, it's a bit disgraceful. She's never done a real acting job and I think that's what she's trying to accomplish so I don't think her making enemies in the business is going to help her any." "The business" -- poor self-deluded Corey... the only "business" you seem to still be in is the "former child actor"/"former drug addict" arenas -- areas that I'm sure even Jerri is more than comfortable leaving to you alone. |
Lyn | Tuesday, January 28, 2003 - 11:12 pm     Seems to me that Jerri sees things (her fame, this show) as it really is. Too bad Corey isn't listening to her |
Ryn | Thursday, January 30, 2003 - 01:56 pm     mini-marathon - no High School Reunion 8-8:30 tonight - the Camping Episode 8:30-9 tonight - the Talent Show 9-9:30 tonight - New Episode!!!!! |
Niceguy | Thursday, January 30, 2003 - 02:24 pm     I want to watch all of Columbo tonite but I'm just hooked on this group. I intend to tune in the final half hour. That GET ME OUTTA HERE I'M A CELEBRITY...show just looks too bogus to spend more than five minutes with. |
Ryn | Thursday, January 30, 2003 - 06:08 pm     The church scene is on, they are all tearing up..... Corey cried earlier in Vegas too - over the group fighting ;) |
