Scorpiomoon | Monday, February 17, 2003 - 12:53 am     Thanks for the Jerri info guys. I have to say, judging by what you guys wrote and from what I've seen of Survivor, Jerri could be the most interesting person to ever be on that show. And if it weren't for Hammer being as extraordinary as he has proven himself to be, Jerri would have been the most intriguing person on this show too. |
Ryn | Monday, February 17, 2003 - 09:08 am     ohhhhh - I have to say Richard and the other characters from Survivor I with the most interesting award. Richard, Susan, Rudy - can't top that combo ;) |
Lizadee | Monday, February 17, 2003 - 09:22 am     I do believe hearing that Survivor Jerri dated Jeff Probst Mybe that has helped her out !! |
Mak1 | Thursday, February 20, 2003 - 06:18 pm     Surreal Life marathon this Sunday, in case anyone missed the wedding tonight. |
Scorpiomoon | Thursday, February 20, 2003 - 06:50 pm     I have to admit, I'm really going to miss this show. I went into this show really cynical. But these people surprised me. They were all decent people and really enjoyable to watch. Even with Corey and all his bagagge...he was fun to watch. The wedding: Is it just me or does what Suzi's mom said about her seeing Corey in "Stand By Me" and writing down that she was in love with him seem a tad bit creepy and make the whole relationship seem premeditated? While they were saying their vows, I was cracking up (Corey "nuturing"? Please!) and started to laugh even harder when one of Hef's chicks was tearing up. What I will miss the absolute most is hearing the guy who does the voiceovers list the show's highlights then pause then say, "Corey Feldman". That cracked me up every time! |
Nathalia | Thursday, February 20, 2003 - 07:28 pm     Scorpio- I am so glad I wasn't the only one laughing through the ceremony when everyone else was crying. When they showed Hef's g/f crying that was priceless! All I could think of what was going through her mind was, "I'm stuck with this old man and I'm never going to get married". Plus when Corey was getting ready and he said he had to go put on his makeup! Corey's face at one point during the ceremony was I think one of his best poses from that horror flick he made, you will see with the teeth. And when he started blubbering I was laughing so hard. I did like this show and wished it had been an hour instead of a half hour. I hear there will be a SL2 will be interesting to see who they get. |
Seamonkey | Thursday, February 20, 2003 - 07:38 pm     I'm thinking I'd like a cast including Corey, with others like, say, Mike Tyson, Puck, oh and I 'm sure there are others.. I'm just gonna wait for the weekend marathon since only seen one of these episodes. Tonight is er for me... (and survivor and csi and... taping i'm a celebrity, might even watch that. |
Lyn | Thursday, February 20, 2003 - 07:55 pm     The only thing I could think of during tonight's show was that we should've had a pool on how long it would take for Corey to cry and how many times in the episode. I know, I know...I'm heading to the corner  |
Surealityjunkie | Thursday, February 20, 2003 - 08:40 pm     I was laughing so hard at the beginning of the show when Corey called the meeting... the looks on everyone's face was priceless! And then when Brande asked Corey if he wanted her to help him pack his bags -- I was gone! The voice-overs were classic tonight and I'm really, really, really, gonna miss this show. (I would have paid to watch live feeds because I liked it that much!  ) |
Kaili | Thursday, February 20, 2003 - 09:25 pm     Was Corey's wedding outfit just the ugliest thing ever? He looked like he was trying out for Interview With A Vampire with all his ruffles. I have to admit though, Suzy is very pretty. |
Seamonkey | Thursday, February 20, 2003 - 09:41 pm     I saw the wedding part, and of course it was emotional but when that guy said to look at all the people, i thought.. jeez they don't really know about a third of them. Yeah I can't figure out why they put Corey in that outfit. I also think Corey is one guy who should NOT bleach out his hair.. it really enhances his naturally feral look, part of that is the way it is combed/styled.. I just noticed that he looked so much less unappealing when he was wearing a dark ball cap and bet that darker hair would look better, he could still have highlights.. I think the goodbyes were pretty genuine.. and I did feel good for Jerri, after all, she didn't come out of Survivor win many fans or friends and going into this show she was greeted with hostility, but she definitely felt better about the whole thing in the end, which is pretty nice to see.. I'd wish for her a softer hairstyle, a do-over, a fresh start. Suzy is pretty, her mother is very strange, almost as strange as Hef. |
Sweetbabygirl | Friday, February 21, 2003 - 05:08 am     Sad to see this show end; I can't believe I won't be seeing 'Manny-Mo' anymore, sob!! I hope he guest stars on Hammer's new show when it comes to the WB. Now, let's get to the comments.... Prince, I mean Corey - WTF was up with that suit? And his crying expressions almost made me pee my pants. Unpopular opinion, but Suzi is not attractive....all I can say is, thank GOD for makeup!! And we won't even go there with her father, I mean mother....eesh, I'm still traumatized!! Hugh Hefner (and Melissa Rivers) must look in the mirror everyday and say "I'm the LUCKIEST person in the world!!" I just don't get them at all. Biggest surprise of the series has been Jerri - I didn't watch her on Survivor so I'm not familiar with her alleged bitchiness. When she initially arrived, I thought she was going to be a pain in the butt, but I think she has turned out to be very cool, especially with Manny-Mo and the girls. |
Mak1 | Friday, February 21, 2003 - 09:46 am     Brande's line "Do you want us to help you pack?" was priceless!....perfectly timed and exactly what was needed in that situation. Corey's outfit made me laugh. His mother-in-law scared me. Suzi calling him "nurturing" had me ROFL. Jerri tearing up at the wedding made me laugh, then saying she wasn't entirely sorry to see Corey leave that night made me laugh again. Corey's facial expressions made me laugh. Vince's g/f scares me. I was surprised at how small Corey looked during the group hug, not that much taller than Manny. When Corey said "All my family is here today", and the camera zoomed in on Hefner and his Bunny, then on the SL housemates, I laughed. When the little ring bearer had the good sense to turn and run away, I laughed. When the dog barked to drown out Corey's "I do", I saw it as a sign, and laughed. It was a pretty wedding, but I have my doubts that the marriage will be. I hadn't planned to watch this series, but am so glad I did! It was good for lots of laughs, and the people were enjoyable. |
Kaili | Friday, February 21, 2003 - 09:55 am     It was fun. I wonder who they will get next time to be on the show. Haha- I loved it! Oh- and Jeri feeling important cause she was asked to tape the wedding and then she wasn't taping through most of it. that wouldn't make me feel included- it would make me feel like part of the staff (caterers, etc). |
Squaredsc | Friday, February 21, 2003 - 04:16 pm     i hope i can catch the marathon. i enjoyed this show but hope next time its not on the same nite as survivor or tar or bb. |
Jhezzie | Friday, February 21, 2003 - 05:39 pm     I'm so glad there is a marathon on Sunday. I totally forgot this was on last night. Ack! |
Niceguy | Saturday, February 22, 2003 - 07:44 am     Hammer may be getting a show for the next fall season. If he can achieve a moment like he had with Vince at the church on a twice a season basis he'll be on for a long while. |
Babyjaxmom | Saturday, February 22, 2003 - 06:44 pm     Okay, I finally watched the tape this afternoon and I have to admit I actually got teary a couple of times. Poor Corey is so pathetic. What did Vince say, he looked like a "cobbler"? And yes, Vince's GF is scary. She looks like a guy in drag. I felt sad when they were all saying goodbye to each other. I think it's like when you were a kid and went to summer camp and made all these intense friendships over a short period of time and then you had to say goodbye and go home. I think they'll really miss each other. I, too, thought this show was a lot more entertaining than I expected it to be. It should have been an hour, though, instead of a half hour. We want more Surreal Life! |
Ryn | Sunday, February 23, 2003 - 07:00 am     The last 4 shows will be repeated tonight at 8pm (Eastern) on WB. |
Scorpiomoon | Sunday, February 23, 2003 - 10:07 am     Two final thoughts I had to share: 1. You guys have written about Lia--Vince's gf. Whenever I saw her, I would always remember how she sounded when he talked to her on the phone. She always sounded really cute, but, man, she looked very over the top. 2. Does anyone else remember, ages ago before this show ever aired that Corey got some media time because of a song he wrote (that is on his recent album)? Apparently, he was in NYC on Sept 11th with Michael Jackson. When things got intense, Michael Jackson hired limos to get his other friends out of the city but he didn't help out Corey. Corey was hurt and pissed and wrote a song about it. I couldn't help but wonder what Corey thinks of MJ these days and what a friendship between Corey and MJ must have been like. |
Heyltslori | Sunday, February 23, 2003 - 10:12 am     Stop!! You'll give me nightmares!! |
Seamonkey | Sunday, February 23, 2003 - 12:30 pm     MJ and Corey.. dysfunctional Vince and Lia.. hey, if it works for them.. either he likes over the top or he sees through to the real person inside.. |
Whoami | Sunday, February 23, 2003 - 12:48 pm     OK, Corey is one of the most annoying people I've ever seen on TV. But, if I were a multi-millionaire, and he and others were in a city with me that had just been hit by terrorists, I certainly wouldn't help everyone else and not him. That would be equivilant to leaving him there to die (since, nobody knew what else might happen that day). I think I would have been hurt and pissed if I were Corey too. But, I certainly wouldn't write a song about it! Maybe MJ thought Corey could afford his own limi, while the other friends couldn't? Who knows. Anyway, the image of MJ and Corey having a friendship freaks me out too! |
Rslover | Tuesday, February 25, 2003 - 10:39 am     Scorpiomoon, Yes, I agree. I thought Lia was stange looking - looks like a man but with big implants. Couldn't believe that low cut dress she wore to the wedding. She looked so tacky. Later on she had a shawl draped over her. Someone must have covered her up. And, what was with the houseguests, couldn't they have dressed up a bit. That Corey is high maintenance. I hope Suzi is happy. |
Brenda1966 | Tuesday, February 25, 2003 - 12:06 pm     Whoami, do you remember when Corey used to dress like Michael Jackson? He wore the red leather jacket and wore one sparkly glove. It was frightening. I watched the final two episodes over the weekend and Corey was just unbearable. This kid needs to get a sense of humor and get over himself. He creates 99.9% of the stress in his life for no reason. I noticed when he was sitting and talking to his fiancee that they both had their arms crossed and had very negative body language. She must be pretty nutty too to be with him. With that said, I'm going to miss this show! |
Jhezzie | Tuesday, February 25, 2003 - 01:19 pm     Brenda, I too watched the wedding over the weekend and OMG. Corey is unbearable. I can't imagine living next door to him, much less marry him! I do remember an interview with Jerri before the show started to air, and she said he would sit there and invent drama because it would be "good for his charactor." He approached it like an acting job, lol. She was like, what charactor?!? It's a REALITY show. |
Brenda1966 | Tuesday, February 25, 2003 - 03:15 pm     When I see Corey Felman, the 13 year old kid who starred in Stand by Me, I think "what a brilliant little actor". When I see the poor-poor-me Corey of today, I think "what a self-absorbed little brat". It seems he never matured beyond age 13. I think he liked the drama, not just for good TV, but in real life too because he then gets the attention he craves. He's so enthralled with his role as "celebrity". |
Seamonkey | Tuesday, February 25, 2003 - 04:10 pm     I managed to tape the wrong channel so I missed the marathon.. oh well.. Isaw a few bits of it and it was always Corey, Corey, Corey.. (the softball game..) |
