Texannie - My wife and I noticed the same thing about the coat and purse. Also noticed that there was some "stuff"...maybe bags, luggage...stacked next to the front door. It didn't seem to make sense then or now. Maybe it was a mistake in editing the video and it gives away the choice of Zora though the overall content of the video last night made it look like His Dorkness was leaning more toward Sarah. Quite frankly I don't care and would pick Zora only because she has more of a "I could give a poop" attitude and might be the least impacted by finding out Evan is more of a dud than dude.

I thought Sarah looked like she was about to push the beverage cart up the aisle of a 737 and hand out peanuts.

Lol Mama, either that, or she looked like she was the head housekeeper of the manor. I wondered why she had her coat and purse with her too.

Ok, I realized too late that my theory of what the twist will be made no sense, but I think it will be something big. The thing is, by the time it is revealed, no one will care

Since Fox is having Even show up everywhere, I am now wondering if the twist isn't that Fox will hire him in some way. I can't remember a reality contestant being given this much coverage before. (I never watched the bachelor, where those guys plastered all over the media while the show was going on?)

Alex just keeps getting worse. I didn't think it was possible she could say her limited lines any stiffer, or dress any worse than when the show started, yikes.

Anyone watch Regis and Kelly? They are as ticked as we are about the waste of time last night!! LOL

I was thinking about it last night after that "waste of an hour show". Maybe Evan tells his girl, then she accepts or denies him and then fox announces that Evan really is a millionare because they offer him the cash for being on the show. Any takers?

Oops, that should have been Evan, not Even in my post, duh.

Wildone, I'm sure EvAN will be paid for the show. I am just wondering if he will get hired by Fox (in addition to that) The problem is, who will want to watch him now?
I have a feeling whoever he picks will be secondary to the "twist". (since my original theory that Zora is the millionaire doesn't make sense)

Could it be that the "discarded" women select either Zora or Sarah ? I cannot believe I wasted a whole hour watching that crap last night. I need to get a life.
When Evan is sitting down, freshly shaved he truly is a babe........

I agree with you all! What a waste of time. We get 10 mintues of new stuff last night, 50 minutes of recap and then next week we get another hour of recap. How stupid does Fox think we are? Wait, don't answer that... :)

I wondered about Sarah wearing her coat too. Maybe she wanted to be dressed and ready to flee if she was rejected.

Needbylifeback - I think it was Mojo who said that.

I can't imagine what the "twist" will be. With all the hype it better be good.

I am annoyed because there already is going to be a recap show, the first hour of next week. No doubt at least half of the second hour will once again recap everything that has happened. I can't wait for this show to end. I think it was a bad call by Fox to put in a clip show, my interest in this show has already been waning, and as a result of their antics I probably won't watch the first hour next week. I can only hope that others feel the same way. Unfortunately, they will probably get huge ratings.

Yep, it was pretty boring. I think it is so funny how long it takes Sarah to put on some eyebrows, Vanity is her 2nd name. The girl is as fake as a three dollar bill.
These two girls could not be more oppisite of each other, and Evan can't figure out which one he likes better? Does he even have a type? I hope he picks Sarah, it will serve her right.
Mojo was his only chance of love, lol.

I was very peeved with Fox last night...what a waste of time!
As far as the "twist" goes...my thoughts are that after he chooses his girl, they offer her the opportunity to stay with him or take one million dollars. That will show us if she really is money hungry or if she really did fall for this doofus. Just a thought...

In reference to Texannie's comments

Regis and Kelly were hilarious this AM. I would suggest anyone watching them the day after "Joe Millionaire" or "The Bachelorette." They have the nerves to say -- on National TV -- everything we are thinking and posting!!! It is the best... :)

I thought the recap show was a wasted hour of my life, too. Fortunately, I was online doing some other things so I wasn't totally tied up to the TV.

I agree, Forggiegirl, last night was a waste of time - recap and recap. Nothing new actually happened, what a drag. Well they had to make it 2-hr finale next Monday, with probably 30 min of excitement..

also of note, on the preview for next week, one of the rejected ladies says something like "I can't wait to see him again so I can punch him ofr lying to us about the 50M." Not an exact quote, but she did say she wanted to slug him, and not because she was rejected.

I know they showed that "punch him" scene in the preview for next week, but is it for the recap airing in hour 1 of next week's 2 hour show, or is it for the reunion show airing on 2/24?

I think it is for the reunion show. The recap hour is probably going to go into who got cut at what point in time, along with the same tired clips and interviews. They are going to save all that other stuff from the rejected girls for the reunion.

I hope I am strong enough to force myself not to waste another hour of my life by watching the recap hour.

Hmmm over 900 posts for a show everyone loves to hate? Fox is doing something right we are all still watching :P

I am still enjoying this show - sure there are tons of recaps & play backs - I agree that gets old but then alot of these "reality" shows have that.

I still like Evan as well - he seems like most of the construction workers I have know from working in the industry for the past 20 years ::::: shrugs her shoulders ::::::

I just don't find him as unappealing as the rest of you seem to.

I haven't really said much on this topic - it appears that everyone seems to enjoy flinging around hateful words about him & I don't think he is that bad - they wanted someone to play the part & he is doing his best. Just my opinion.

::::::going back to her quiet corner now :::::::: LOL

Vixen, I don't hate Evan. He's not my type and he's really not either of the finalists' type if you ask me, so he's fun to bash on. He's a bit dull and not too bright, but he certainly has people tuning in!

I'm mostly annoyed with how Fox is milking this. Imagine how tighly edited the show would be if the ratings were bad. But since they're getting killer ratings they are draging it on with recap after recap. There's a funny article about last nights episode here: http://tv.zap2it.com/news/tvnewsdaily.html?30105

I forgot to comment earlier on Sarah's comment to Zora after Zora said Sarah had a geographical advantage. Sarah says: if he doesn't like either of us he can pick you and use your geographical location as an excuse to ditch her. What a <> It was an underhanded dig at Zora.

If either girl is offered 1 million or Evan she'd be an idiot not the take the money and run. They've only known Evan for a few weeks at most? And only spent a few hours with him during that time? I don't think real, lasting love can bloom that quickly.

Vixen, I'm not sure if I "hate" him. "Hate" is a strong word, and he's never done anything to me personally.

But I can say that I'm really irritated with him - the hair, the stupidity, the manners, etc.

And I fully agree with Brenda: "I'm mostly annoyed with how Fox is milking this. Imagine how tighly edited the show would be if the ratings were bad. But since they're getting killer ratings they are draging it on with recap after recap."

That's the part that annoys me the most. And it annoys me that I find myself continuing to watch it.

The article really sums it up. I don't hate Evan either, I just wonder when the facade is over will Evan and his choice have any common interests. The only thing that will bind them is their vacation in France. Will that be enough for a love relationship? I think not. That's why I feel Zora would be the best choice, because she would be happy just to remain friends with Evan. Her conversation with him last night seemed to reflect that "I've had a good time and it's all good" attitude, Guess we will have to wait until next week.

I'm sorry if I miss-spoke - I didn't mean that anyone said they "hated" him - I just said alot of hateful words have been said about him - i.e. dork, dufas (sp??), stupid, unkempt, on & on. I usually save the mean stuff for mean people in these shows. To me Evan doesn't seem to have a hateful personality. Rough around the edges, yes - sometimes not "PC", yes - unkind - no. Hey we are all alowed to our opinions - that is what makes these boards fun. I don't begrudge anyone theirs just as I expect to have the opportunity to express mine. Sometimes its fun to cheer for the underdog & he seems to be it LOL

I don't blame him a bit for getting out there & stretching out his "15 minutes" as far as he can -god knows 99% of the people in these reality shows would do the same if there was an interest out there in the media for any of them. My guess is that once next week is over he will probably fade away quietly into the sunset.

Vixen,I hope you continue posting here.I enjoy everyone's opinions about the show,even when they differ from mine.I know I was in the minority during the last Survivor because I didn't think that Robb was all that bad,(just misunderstood!)and couldn't understand the ShiiAnn lovefest(yuppie snob!) Who knows? If I ever had a chance to really get to know her,she and I could very well have great conversations! We know these "stars",but we really don't.. But I digress!

I also don't hate Evan.I do admit that I get a kick out of laughing at the show.You are right-he is playing his part after all,and I hope for something good to come out of this,for everyone involved.

I hope you don't feel singled out for expressing a different opinion.I always enjoy hearing the other side :)

Vixen, I also worked around construction guys for a while and agree with you that he often exudes those stereotypical characteristics. And every week I find myself cheering for him and cringing (sp?) at the same time. And absolutely you get the same opportunity to express your's.

Ty Magi - I also have fun reading differing points of view - it would be boring if we were all alike. (Magi - I also kinda liked Robb "Two B's Dude" - LMAO & the "She-Devil bugged me)

Northstar! Yes I do the same - sometimes I wanna shake him for the silly things he says but I continue to cheer him on.

Kinda like the "did you bring that breast with you" question - I was cracking up. But then at the same time feeling bad for him cuz I can relate - I'm always doing those slip things where what you said isn't what you meant to say - out loud at least LOL

I must admit I was very hesitant to post what I did but now I'm glad I did :)
