I think she finds Eric intriguing simply because he pretty much worships the ground she walks on. Whether she likes that in general or whether she likes it because it increases the probability of him choosing her over the money at the end (and thus putting $2million in her pocket) is hard to tell.

I agree with you Jasper. That head tilting and hugging bug me too. Also, the words she uses and the way she talks during the elim. ceremonies bug me too. I've only see some of the elimination ceremonies for this instal. of the show. I don't know if she'd bug me earlier on in the show, but she sure does during those elim. ceremonies. Also, watch out if she says something really nice to you right away, you'll be dumped!

I liked her ok in the first installment. Those little speeches she gives at the elim. pt. are barely more eloquent than Rob's.

yeah, she's "no trista" in the speech department, thought erin is attractive in looks, her movement/body language on camera maybe a bit unnatural.

I didn't see anything about a twist either, but I was thinking I might have had a min-stroke or something.

I hope they aren't bringing Rob back to tell the guys that Erin had been there before, and money is involved in her return. That would be mean on the producers' part. Rob's such a doofus he'd botch it anyway.

I'm not all that fond of Erin, either. I don't think she's all that bright (or eloquent!). She's OK, but I think even she knows she's not going to find luuurve on this show.

The bit about the carnival game was funny. Like women are really impressed when a guy wins them a stuffed animal at a carnie booth?!? What generation are these people? What age? I'm so SUUUURE! LOL!!

I also don't like Eric much. The guy she went to dinner with (Wade) is probably too good for her. He looks like a soap-opera star but acts very mature. To think Erin wasn't impressed that he "puts it all out there." Isn't that what most women want, a man who is open and communicative, and not playing mystery games? Well, it's what I value, anyway.

I'm in the minority again. LOL! I like Erin better than Trista (I didn't see Trista on the Bachelor -- just on the Bachelorette).

Trista was more polished and seemed a tad fake to me. I think Erin is sincere and I blame the awkward ring ceremony on the show and what they're asking her to do. Trista didn't have to give a speech to each guy saying what she liked about him or why he didn't fit. She just asked them to accept the rose. If she had said a speech I'm sure it would have sounded odd too.

I also think Erin is more attractive physically. And a BIG plus: no baby talk from Erin! :)

I missed the end (recorded it). Are they a few minutes over again?

Max

Tuesday, July 29, 2003 - 01:21 pm EditMoveDeleteIP
yeah, they go like five minutes over. it's irritating

PS Eric is creepy, what exactly does she find intriguing about him?

Mmmmm...I had read that Eric is a virgin. I wonder if that is what she finds intriguing? :)

Max

Tuesday, July 29, 2003 - 02:09 pm EditMoveDeleteIP
I don't know, Kady. I tend to think that men are more fascinated by virgins than women are. But maybe that's just me. :)

I, too think Erin is more real than Trista whose laugh just annoyed me. I also don't think Erin is looking to become a celebrity which was written all over Trista. I don't dislike Trista, just not a fan. I think Erin is sincere, but realizes that with $2 million at stake, she'd forgo the romance.

Did anybody notice that she will be paid for her appearance on the show. Learning that made me think she wasn't as big a gambler as they had led us to believe.

Her comments about intrigue and mystery just baffle me. No wonder she has been unsuccessful in the romance department to date -- if you can't figure them out, they "ain't" for you. Sure you want someone who will occasionally surprise you, but intrigue and mystery don't just don't seem to be compatible with trust.

She's definitely got alot going for her. I think few sessions with a counselor to determine what she needs would go along way to dispelling the romantic and foolish notion of mystery and intrigue, lol.

(Hi Bracken!)

I missed the show Tuesday because we had a power outage from severe thunderstorms. The twist will be next week, right? I didn't watch FLOM first time, but heard Rob was pretty slimy. She is going to die when they bring him into the equation. Seems a little harsh to me. I wonder if he will be given directions not to talk about the first go-round otherwise it would spoil the dynamics of the show and the surprise? But if so, what is the point of his appearance? Just to throw her off-kilter?

I like Erin. I also find her more genuine than Trista. I grew less and less fond of Trista as the Bachelorette progressed, although it does seem like she and Ryan are making a genuine go of it and I give her kudos for that.

The promo said someone will reject her. Anybody think they will bring Rob in saying "since (whoever) left, we are bringing in another guy. Erin meet Rob." That really would make it about love or money between him and her and for her in this show. See? Because he got nothing out of the last show either. Then it would be an unspoken secret between him and her and she would know with him the money would be a for sure but if she chooses love it really is a gamble. Just a thought.

The promo said someone takes money to leave. I would just like to know exactly how many tube tops does that girl have?!!! She spends all her time pulling them up. And is that the way anyone would really dress to walk on a high wire? What's the idea?

I saw on tvguide.com that the guy who was in the first one becomes a contestant on the second one. Oh this sucks! I hated him!

I hated him too.. He lost.. he doesn't deserve to return, not to mention that he'll spread his slime everywhere in this version.

And for me.. I like Erin better than I like Trista.

Luvtrash...I was thinking the very same thing re: the tube tops. Why in the world would anyone wear one during a strenuous activity! Too funny! She has tons of those things. I haven't seen them in any stores lately, but of course I am certainly not looking for them! :)

well, TV Guide and some other sources had some stuff on the spoilers coming up. I'll white-font them if you don't want to know....

Apparently love can be awful cheap.....the guy who leaves tonight is bought off for just $10,000!! I mean, in Mole 2, even they offered $50,000 for someone to leave...

Can anyone give any spoilers on tonight's show?

Not for about 2.5 hours here, but you can check out what Wilson spoiled above, such as it is.

Ok, so who took the money? I missed the last five minutes as usual. I know it was Chad or Vic. I think Vic, cause the hand looked like I imagine Vic's would look.

My recording was just cut off as they said something like Erin drops a bombshell of her own...

What did Erin say ?

Iceprincess

Monday, August 04, 2003 - 09:46 pm EditMoveDeleteIP
It was Vic...and he said he felt she had more of a connection with the other guys. She basically said that he wasn't going tonite and she was disappointed. big whoop no dramatics. They over played it as usual.

Gina -

Yes, it was Vic who took the money in exchange for eliminating himself from the competition. ($10,000)

Her "bombshell" was telling Vic that he would not have been the person eliminated tonight had the elimination ceremony proceeded as it normally has.
