It is totally unfair that Paul got voted off. I think he got voted off because no one in the NY area could vote. Because of a sports game, Cupid was aired around 2 am and voting was closed. It's funny how Paul and Renda (who are both from NY ended up in the bottom three).

I just watched the episode of Blind Date that Robert was on and he was a totally different person. He was not one bit shy like he claims to be on Cupid. He was all over this girl and all he could talk about was her breasts and if she was ever in Playboy. It was like watching two totally different Roberts. Mr shy guy (not) and a very aggresive date. I'm beginning to think he was just put on Cupid for our entertainment. Ann

Thank you, Dahli. I am not normally a vicious or vengeful person, but this show brings it out in me! Maybe because of their idiotic assumption that all us lunkheaded viewers out here will do as we're told and vote with "Lisa's best interests" in mind. They have no idea who they're dealing with . . . hehehehehe....

I mean, seriously. Who is Lisa to me? Nobody, that's who. Same with her awful friends.

Warrenn, at the beginning of the episode they showed clips of the guys at the house. Someone mentioned that Hank, Evan, and Dominic seem like the biggest competition. Renda said that Hank is like Jekyll and Hyde. We see Hank saying that whoever hasn't done the dishes yet should get over in the kitchen right now. Dominic says that Hank is not the best match for Lisa, and America should see that. Oh, and earlier in the episode the guys were joking about ants in the kitchen being Lisa's friend (someone hit at one, saying it's Kimberly). Hank pretended another was Laura, and mentioned the kiss not being passionate.

Personally I still like Hank. The dishes stuff seemed reasonable to me, and the ants were obviously a joke. I got the vibe that Dominic just doesn't really like the competition (he seemed kind of resentful when he said the stuff about Hank). Not sure about Renda since they didn't show him explaining his comment, but for now I'll just go on what I see...*shrug*.

I don't think Hank is perfect, but I still like him better than the others. For Lisa, at least. Renda seems nice, but he should be matched up with someone very different. Evan seems like fun and there's obviously chemistry with Lisa, but I still get the player vibe from him. Maybe if they don't opt for marriage it'd be okay, though.

Robert is the best thing this show has going for it. We just can't wait to see what he does next (and isn't that just what the producers want?). Watching the three of them squirm was extremely entertaining.

By the way, what happened to Simon - it's like he's vanished (sorry if this has been discussed already)?

I think Simon is off doing AI3 auditions. I wish he would still do a 30 second intro but I guess he's too busy.

Simon wasn't even going to appear on the show, until the producers realized we viewers expected to see him, since he was in all the ads! Duh.

Well, that answers my question about the voting! Just as I expected--some of us have evil, twisted minds! I like that in my friends! And you are right, this is no way to really chose your mate, they all have other motives for being on the show, her friends are too cruel, and (I am ashamed to admit) it was entertaining to see the girls' reaction on the last show. Surely they will figure out what is happening?

I agree with Jannk. Robert is acting...making fun of reality dating shows. It's all an act and I'm loving it.

I want Robert in Laura's face week after week.

I saw Ken this weekend. At "Sunset Junction," a street fair in Silverlake. He was standing around by himself all day trying to look like he was waiting for someone. I almost went to talk to him to ease the pain. But I wanted to go watch the bands. He is VERY TALL. Like 6' 5" or something. Maybe taller. Very good looking in person.

RS lover........although I may be mistaken I thought Paul was from Miami not NY. Because all I could think of when he first came on in his pink suit was "how appropriate......art deco" :)

Heard Paul on a local radio station this morning. He sounded pretty nice and had all good things to say about Lisa. When asked if he thought he could have married her, he wasn't sure. Said she was nice but they didn't have enough time together to decide.

He said they all live in the mansion and are not allowed to watch TV. Just listen to music and watch movies. Said Robert just works out and talks about Lisa. Said Robert is in love with the picture of Lisa hanging in the mansion.

He said there's very little alone time with Lisa. Just when the cameramen are around the corner or something. Said when they went horseback riding, the camerman was on foot so he and Lisa made the horses trot a bit so they could be alone. Said the cameraman was yelling "Hey! Wait up. Not so fast!"

He's back to working on his play. That's about it I guess.

Darn, Kellsma, I guess we have to wait for the actual show;( Please, please, let it be Robert!
He may actually be sincere, but nothing good could
possibly come of America leaving him in the competition.

Oh bummer, I don't want to wait. I think Ken is going tonight, but who knows. Well the East Coasters know. Wanna share with us, please!

Ken is out. Ken, Renda, and Dominic were in the bottom 3.

Kellsma

Tuesday, August 26, 2003 - 06:15 pm EditMoveDeleteIP
Thanks! Renda always seems to be in the bottom 3. Poor guy!

What are the date plans for tonight?

Tuesday, August 26, 2003 - 06:16 pm EditMoveDeleteIP
Just noticed, Robert still hanging in there. No bottom 3 again. She just might have to marry him!

Lisa met all the guys' families. Actually all the dates went really well...even Robert's family date went okay in a really weird way.

hahahaah!!! I bet they were pissed that Robert isn't in the bottom 3 again! LOL
I think if they stopped being so mean to him people would stop voting for him, either that or america just wants her to suffer! lol

Watching Robert's date was just painful. I think the girls were being nicer to him in hope that America votes him out. I hope it works, it was fun for awhile but its been long enough.

After watching tonights show, I've decided Evan is my favorite. There is just something I don't like about Hank and Joe that I can't put my finger on. Renda and Dominic are cute and sweet but they just don't go with Lisa.

Robert argues with Lisa in a very creepy, scary stalker way, like, I got the feeling that I'd want someone to watch my back after that...ewwww. Someone please, put him out of his misery. Evan's the one....for me! j/k I think he seems the best for her. Hank creeped me out when they were making out on the rooftop....the 'I want to take off your clothes' thing was just weird on top of the other comment about her being with the other guys. I sensed a little weirdness there, like possessiveness?

I think they were trying reverse psycology on the tv audience because they were being nice to Robert this time.

Hank creeped me out too saying he wanted to take her clothes off and make love to her. Talk about one extreme to the next

Evan is the one she wants but I like Renda!

I missed the autopsy of the date with Joe. The phone rang and I watched it on mute. It did not look as though the women were as enthusiastic as they have been in the past. Could someone fill me in, please? Thanks

The producer may have told them to back off on attacking Robert. Whoever hatched the plan, I think it is wise. He has no personal power to gather his wits and present his best side. He is totally off balance from the harsh treatment. I don't think he is a good match though. Let's not forget before the attacks began he groped her on the first gathering by pulling at her bikini after grabbing her to his lap. Not good. He only has himself to blame for negative feedback. Not saying the women have done this well, but then again this is entertainment and probably have been told to go for it.

I favor Evan and that is it. I am totally turned off to Hank. He has very sharp edges, a bad haircut, and all the men in the house cannot be off base in their perception. It is more than not liking "a couple of the guys". His inability to do what is necessary to get along in the house says a lot.

Dominick is a kid. Renda is sweet but I do not believe for one minute that Lisa would be happy with a street hustler despite what she said. He is a kid too. The women have a strategy so he does not end up at the bottom of the heap. Praise him and hope the votes shift putting Robert at the bottom.
