Texasdeb | Tuesday, July 08, 2003 - 04:12 pm     I agree Avrey, Live Feeds & this show would have the potential to become really big especially if they showed it where it didn't contrast w/bb. Hope the producers read tvch. Maybe, we'll see what we want if there's a 2nd season. |
Tashakinz | Wednesday, July 09, 2003 - 12:26 pm     Does anyone who watches this not watch BB? (Just wondering if someone could spoil tonight while I watch the hamsters...) = ) |
Avrey258 | Wednesday, July 09, 2003 - 12:43 pm     I will be watching BB4 tonight but I have a dish so I'll catch Paradise Hotel on the west coast feed. I do know it is 90 minutes tonight and I need to check and see what time it starts. <Please address questions about moderation to tvchmoderator@hotmail.com. Thanks.> (c) |
Ryn | Wednesday, July 09, 2003 - 02:23 pm     Just to repeat.... 90 minute Show Tonight - starts 30 minutes early!!!!! |
Jan | Wednesday, July 09, 2003 - 08:19 pm     anybody watch the show tonight or was everyone watching BB?? Anyone know what happened? |
Grooch | Wednesday, July 09, 2003 - 09:03 pm     It was so freaking bizarre and so much happened, I don't know where to begin. If this show had live feeds, I would dump BB in a NY minute. In a nutshell.... The new guy picked Charla to live with, and Amanda is playing EVERY SINGLE GUY!!!!!! She may decide to leave on her own next week because her ex boyfriend asks her to. |
Surealityjunkie | Wednesday, July 09, 2003 - 09:39 pm     I agree with Grooch... this show got more t.v. time in my house than BB4. It was a wild ride tonight and if they keep up this pace I will have a hard time choosing what to watch each Wednesday! I am actually looking forward to Monday's show. On a side note, I will be glad when I learn everyone's name on Paradise Hotel & BB4. It is hard to keep up with them all -- feeds & live -- when none of know who we are watching! Argh! |
Grooch | Wednesday, July 09, 2003 - 10:00 pm     SJ, lol! I want Dave, Toni, Zack, Amanda, Charla, & Amy to stay. Any of the others I will be fine if they are voted off, because their personalities haven't stood out to me after all this time (excluding the new guy.) So I have no idea who they are. I am wishy-washy to Beau though. He doesn't stand out at all, but he is such a fool with Amanda, so he could be considered a key player. I feel bad for him. I think he really, really likes her. |
Avrey258 | Wednesday, July 09, 2003 - 10:25 pm     Great show tonight. Looks as though we will soon learn how this show will wrap up. After tonight's show I didn't think I could dislike Zack anymore and yet, I do. What is his story? When he told Amy early on that his Mom left him in a grocery store, he made it seem as though she abandoned him as a child and he grew up parentless. Tonight he told Amanda and Kristin that his parents had a bad fight when he was 13? What? O.K. I give up. I think Beau is really hurting over Amanda, otherwise why would he keep harping on it? I don't think I quite get Charla. I did feel sorry for Dave tonight because I think he was hitting the sauce upon his arrival at the hotel and now it has come back to haunt him. I'm a little confused about Amanda's boyfriend showing up. Guess I'll have to stay tuned to see if she goes. I wonder how happy her ex will be when he finds out that she lied to him about only kissing Beau? A silly lie since he is her ex-boyfriend. Well, I'm out until Monday. Guess I'll head over to the BB4 board. Hope things get more exciting in the BB4 house. Anyone else a little disappointed in the BB4 show so far? Cheers, Avrey |

Well, if you were Amanada and cared about Zach, wouldn't you have taken the time to ask him about it? I think that's what Zack's whole point was tonight. No one cared to ask for details after he told them the beginning of his story. Very sad.  |
Hobbs | Thursday, July 10, 2003 - 05:57 am     Zack needs serious counseling and he shouldn't be trying to get it out of a bunch of TV star wannabes. |
Avrey258 | Thursday, July 10, 2003 - 07:38 am     Grooch, I understand what you are saying but since we only hear Zack's side I don't know who really said what to whom. O.K., so let's give him the benefit of the doubt. I assume people don't want to ask Zack about his past because he seems so angry about it. After all, they did just meet these people. Maybe they think it's to personal to delve into. I just don't see why Zack is constantly screaming at Amy. I think she is just trying to not stir the pot so she just says "nice" things to Zack. I agree with Hobbs though, Zack has some serious issues and he has chosen to bring them out in the open. After all they are on television, playing a game and hopefully, to have some fun. I also think Zack needs to feel validated all the time. He needs reassurance about his looks and body but in my opinion there is alot of other stuff going on inside. |
Grooch | Thursday, July 10, 2003 - 07:47 am     <smacks myself upside the head> I agree with you guys. What the heck was I smoking last night? lol! |
Laura11103 | Thursday, July 10, 2003 - 08:23 am     Zack is just coming off like such a big baby. He looked so PO'd when the new guy came in and starting giving his assessment of everybody. Right now I think Matt is the biggest player there. He's so bad! All over Charla, then all over Amanda... of course they seem to like it. Two times Amanda almost got caught in bed by Beau, first with Alex (that was hillarious, 2 seconds after he left the room, Beau comes in) and then Matt in her bed, but then Beau did see them in bed together... obviously Amanda doesn't care about Beau, she likes whichever guy in that moment. Personally, I think Alex is pretty cute. I'm glad to see Dave's not the new guy anymore, but I have a feeling he'll be gone next. |
Djgirl5235 | Thursday, July 10, 2003 - 09:46 am     I've heard that there are live feeds on Yahoo Platinum... at least we're starting to learn that there is a prize in all of this and not just the summer at a hotel! Oh and the bonus in all of this, is that the channel that covers BB4 also covers Paradise Hotel, so I can watch both and not have to tape anything - they just push BB4 back an hour! |
Oregonfire | Thursday, July 10, 2003 - 10:27 am     I'm addicted to this show. So much drama! Funny to see Toni back after "The Love Cruise." Toni scares me; she acts like she's in the mafia, all the emphasis on "the group." I think she's just jealous of Amanda. Speaking of, why don't they just call the show "Amanda's harem"? Every guy seems to be interested in her, except for Zach and Amy have something going. One thing about this show: If these people are a reflection of the dating scene in America, well that's just sad. So much fear and neurosis. Or maybe it's just a show, I don't know. |
Laura11103 | Thursday, July 10, 2003 - 11:22 am     What's funny to me is, don't they ever wanna go home???? I've been to club med a few times and it's always fabulous, but by the end of the week we're usually ready to go. In club med there was much emotional upheaval because everyone's hooking up and then getting ignored, a lot like this show, lol, it hurts a lot and I'm just surprised that no one just wants to get the hell home already. Yeah, it's fun to be in a beautiful resort, but if you're miserable with the people and being hurt emotionally, the fun goes real quickly, you can go swimming at home too. |
Kappy | Thursday, July 10, 2003 - 11:23 am     Grooch ~ please don't smack yourself. You made a valid point coming from a different direction. But I think what the women here are reacting to is the anger in his voice and, IMHO, what I see as potential violence in the future. Whenever he gets mad at Amy and there isn't a valid reason for it, he turns it around and uses his sad-childhood story as a way to make Amy the bad guy and to say 'that's why I got mad at you and that's why it's your fault'. In other words, in his own mind, it's a valid excuse for being verbally to women. But the reality is that these women did not cause his anger and they have no obligation to fix him emotionally. At this point, he's using it as a tool to manipulate them and it's a sick tool at that. The fact that he made it out as if his mother abandoned him very young and implied his father was not in the picture and then now we find out he was thirteen before they even seperated?! I, for one, have stopped buying his story of being abandoned completely. In fact, I thought he was doing a very bad audition when he went into his crying. So Djgirl ~ Please ~ WHAT is the prize? Is it a part on a soap opera? Because I swear the only excuse I can give Amanda or Zack at this point is that they know this is an audition. |
Avrey258 | Thursday, July 10, 2003 - 01:37 pm     Laura11103 and all, Regarding Matt. Wasn't that moment priceless: "I watched you guys on T.V. doing push-ups before you went in the pool"! Of course he had to add that Zack went back for one more push-up while the tape was rolling of the whole incident. I love how they do that. The same with Amanda telling her ex that she only kissed Beau, oops! there goes that tape to prove her wrong. Priceless! |
Gymrat | Friday, July 11, 2003 - 11:41 am     Does anyone know anything about Matt's band? |
Surealityjunkie | Monday, July 14, 2003 - 05:57 pm     Shall I attempt to spoil tonight? |
Realitynut | Monday, July 14, 2003 - 06:01 pm     Yes Please! |
Surealityjunkie | Monday, July 14, 2003 - 06:02 pm     Will do! Right now they are recapping last week... which man will be forced to check out??? Horrid theme song... |
Surealityjunkie | Monday, July 14, 2003 - 06:09 pm     Amanda talking to Amy about Jason being in Paradise Hotel. He wants her to go home tomorrow. She wants to be with him but doesn't want to leave paradise. They broke up because she moved and they couldn't keep up a long distance relationship. Beau is saying that Amanda didn't cheat on Jason and according to her standards he would be a good one for her... Recapping how Amanda told Beau she thinks her family would like him... Beau and Jason talking... uh oh... 8 hours after knowing her she said she would be jealous if anyone hit on him (Beau telling this to Jason, I believe.) Charla and Matt talking. Charla doesn't feel as comfortable with him as she was the first night. He likes to LOOK at her. She says she is kinda "aloof" because she doesn't open up to people. Matt touches her on purpose and then tells her to deal with. She gets up off the bed and walks off. |
Surealityjunkie | Monday, July 14, 2003 - 06:12 pm     coming up... Toni and Beau have a big fight. www.jakll.com video game coming soon... "American Wedding" coming in August new show on Fox -- The OC premieres Tuesday, Aug. 5 That 70's show... Bernie Mac moving to Friday's this summer along with Boston Public. Bonzai show...
