I hope that spoiler is right, but it must be SOON.

Anne should have been booted last night.. not only is she at the bottom but she's really really negative.

Yeah, the spoiler said that she feels her boyfriend got voted off unfairly. Doesn't make sense since the guys vote off the lowest scored...

I wasn't surprised by Emily, you've gotta admit, she didn't lie, she said it was personal, she gave her reasons, if the other girls had their own minds, they would've just said "no" and went for Anne. In a way, I kind of admire Emily, she pulled no punches... she put it out there, and they went for it, hey, she wanted Veronica gone, of course she's gonna try to convince the other girls to vote with her on it. She did what she wanted to do, at least she can say that, unlike Ruthie and Ellen.

I was sorry to see "Sy-Dog" go... but it's nice to see the guys with next to no drama having so much fun out there.

My question is, WHY is Colin still there? He is on crutches and hasn't been in a competition since he was injured, if I'm not mistaken.

sweetbaby, Colin has competed in every competition and has done well enough to stay in the inner circle. I think somewhere on this board someone said that Colin actually wins, but I secretly hope its Lori (she seems to avoid the drama, even though she has dropped a few points in my book for dating square-headed Kyle from the Chicago season)

Melissa seems to not think Emily was honest and straightforward at all..

I think Emily was only honest and straightforward to the confessional camera, not to Ruthie and Ellen. To them, she just kept saying stuff about how Veronica was mean to everyone and no one liked her and she shoule leave and yadda yadda yadda.

She manipulated them and then bragged about it to the confessional camera and said she wouldn't lose a wink of sleep over it.

Now, that said, I still think Ruthie and Ellen were really naive and silly to listen to her. They've been in the inner circle with her before and seen how she works. How could Ruthie forget about Emily's reaction when Ruthie told her about Aneesa wanting to get someone to team with Emily and throw the competition so they could boot her out? Emily was told that and turned right around and wanted someone else booted instead. At the time, Ruthie seemed to have her eyes opened about Emily, but she seems to have forgotten all that.

BTW, and I don't mean to be catty (O.K. maybe just a little) has anyone else noticed that Melissa likes to mention how "tiny" she is?
I know she lost weight since she was on the RW New Orleans but she is really bugging me with the "I'm so little, I'm so tiny" stuff.

I don't blame Ayanna for wanting to go....that mission was the women in a nutshell...everyone for themselves, and nobody trusts nobody. The men have a plan and for the most part are sticking to it.

Yeah that mission was a total mess. Funny how Emily always manages to be on top, she's definitely tough.

For a minute I thought maybe that spoiler about one of the women, who's doing well in the competition, dropping out, being Ayanna, but it referred to a boyfriend so it's gotta be Emily (who I assume is due to drop out any time now).

Anyway, I was surprised, but obviously much more must have went on, and into Ayanna's decision, than what they showed us. It just seemed sudden for her to just wanna drop out. If this was Survivor or BB, no one would just get annoyed and drop out, kinda weird IMO.

Bye to Blair, he's a real hottie, huh?

This group is sure dwindling down, still seems to be a LOT of them still there though, lol.

woohoo i caught 2 episodes in a row on their first showing. these women are idiots. ayanna was trying to explain how to play the game and they just wouldn't listen. and i wanted to slap anne, i really can't stand her. im sorry to see ayanna go but she was absolutely right, why bother if no one is going to listen and trust each other. every girl is out for themself and not realizing its a team sport.

Love Ayanna, will miss her a lot.

Anne certainly had a bug up her butt tonight; plus she was pushing Ayanna. It is bad enough that she couldn't be bothered to listen when Ayanna was only trying to help, but to be all up in her face afterwards? She would have gotten a serious beat down.

Anne's butt has been bugged for awhile.. she should have gone last week instead of Rachel, since she was dead last.

Ayanna did say she wanted to leave, but she also was last, partly because the guys specifically targetted, first Ayanna and Ruthie and then Ellen. Notice that Emily wasn't surprised that she was the last one standing? Think she had some help from the guys? Maybe, maybe not.

I wonder if Anne was trying to push Ayanna over the edge.

Can we say I don't like Anne? and Emily?

We can say that..

Oh, I didn't realize Ayanna was last. Okay, now that makes sense.

I take everything that happens with a grain of salt. Especially this show. It seemed like more than just Anne were not happy with how Ayanna was trying to explain how to play. Who really knows anymore, the way they edit, our judgments can be so off base.

But I like Ayanna a lot also, always did, she's got spirit, she's a fighter, but a good friend too, I hope her and David get back in touch, they made a good couple IMO.

ooh thats right the ayanna/david thing, yep hope that blossoms nicely. and yes sea we can say we don't like anne and emily, but we can't say what we "really" feel about them.

sbg, beatdown was exactly what i was thinking.

Tuesday, April 01, 2003 - 05:03 pm EditMoveDeleteIP
OH yeah!! They seemed pretty suited to each other in my opinion.. That would be really nice. I think David's mom would be good for Ayanna too.

No, Squared, we cannot say that because we would be punted out very fast.
Faster than even you can say aubergine

Well, I've been so sick of these Real World / Road Rule challenge shows, that I had told myself I wouldn't be watching anymore. But on a lazy Saturday afternoon here on the West coast, I got sucked in once again by the always-on MTV marathons.

I must admit that I did find these shows somewhat intriguing, despite it being a pretty blatant rip-off of Survivor. I didn't sit through all of them but watched enough to get me wondering.

Forgive my ignorance if these points/questions have already been brought up. I'm too tired to read the hundreds of archived posts above.

Do any of these 36 people have REAL JOBS? How is it that every year the same RW/RRers can take time off from their life to do one of these shows? I only watched a few episodes of the marathon, but it certainly does seem that they would be in Jamaica for a long time. Are they all wanna-be actors and this is simply great and continued exposure for them? Do these now annual "all-star" shows now become a part of your life if you're lucky enough to be picked to be in RW/RR?

What is with the beard on Jamie? Is he now acting in a Civil War drama?

In the few episodes I've seen, I am amazed at how strong and mature Ruthie has become since the Hawaii show. Way to go Ruthie!

beach, i can't answer all of your questions about if they have "real" jobs. i think they do have some kind of employment though, like last season i think sean was on and he's a lawyer. i really don't know what these folks do but im sure they do something and they are getting paid to be on the show too.

as for jamie's beard, i don't know if there can be any explanation about that, lol.

puttergirl, thanks for the updated pics. i still don't know how melissa, anne, and genesis are still there.

Beach, I read somewhere that the deal with Jamie's beard is that while he was in New Orleans they portrayed him as a clean cut fraternity boy and that really wasn't who he truly was. So if he shows up on the show looking and acting completely different then the "character" they decided he was, then they won't be able to portray him that way. In such, they sure have left him to the background. That's the bad thing about reality shows, you only see a snippet of a persons' personality. They don't really have the time to explore their "whole" personality.
