YES YES! I love this show. Can't wait to see how the band is doing. I re-watched a whole bunch of episodes this weekend, loved it even more the second time. I think P. Diddy picked the exact right people, so glad he chose Fred and Chopper, they're amazing...

The only making the band i remember was making O Town. I haven't watched the shows with P Diddy cause I don't like hiphop or rap. And what's up with celebrities changing their names on a whim?? Prince to something nobody can say and Puff Daddy to P Diddy. At least I can say P Diddy. LOL

O'Town was the first season, P. Diddy's was the second. I guess if you don't like rap you might not like it, but it's got all the makings of any reality show, drama, fighting, struggling, competition. I happen to like rap and think they are amazing rappers, this season looks insane just from the clips, fighting and stuff... I love P. Diddy, think he's amazingly talented and funny also, can't wait to see this.

No, no.. I don't really like rap and most hip-hop, but the show was fascinating to see how Puffy/P.Diddy (or as he signed a quote on the wall in their house "Me Diddy") set up the rules of the house and took them to task if they didn't follow them. He had them working out and competing all the time, really testing them personality-wise as well as talent wise.

These kids also have plenty of life issues but instead of that being glossed over, it was part of the show. (one girl 0

(will return, cable guy here.. I'm getting broadband!!)

Sea, I just got DSL literally two hours ago. After painfully suffering through AOL, I feel as if I'm in internet heaven!

Monkeyboy, I'm with you. 5th season?! Surely it hasn't been five years since that boy band debuted, right? I remember one Puffy season, but that's all. When/where/who were the last two?

I got roadrunner cable broadband.. \

Actually, what I was starting on was that there was the girl who discovered she was pregnant mid-season and the guy who had a court case and yeah a couple of the others were booted. But it was handled on the show, not hidden away.

So, even if you aren't a fan of the music, the show is sitll compelling, IMO.

Dang it, I was about to go to bed when I happened to start channel surfing....I would have been pissed if I missed this, I thought it was starting on Monday!

Oh well, can't wait to see crazy Chopper, I love him!

Kinda short for a first episode, but P Diddy certainly has their number.. big egoes galore so he's testing them again..

He's a smart guy! Not coddling anyone here.

Well, you have to admit, Puffy is way easier to look at than that icky guy who moulded O-Town--Lou Pearlman.

Oh man, I couldn't believe those brats... I know the walk to brooklyn was very long, but for them to all go back and expecting P. Diddy to say forget it... RIGHT! I loved it when P. Diddy said, "go get the cheesecake or go home... good luck to you".... lol, not pissed off, just matter of fact. Then for them to all stand there bitching about it, I was thinking GET WALKING! Then when they finally get the cheesecake, Babs goes and drops it, talk about careless. They were all so outraged... gimme a break!

I can tell, I'm gonna love this season, it's gonna be no cakewalk for these guys.

I liked the wake-up call of the Best Western with not so many beds when they fully expected to sail right into the posh crib :)

I also liked him calling out the guy with the biggest 'tude and reminding him that he had gone out on a limb for this guy and it kept him out of prison.

I agree with you Sea & Laura, it was amazing to see him put them in their place while letting us know that they are doing this because there is *stuff* he has to do everyday that he doesn't like to do. But he does it with a smile and moves on with it...

Looking at the highlights of future episodes, this looks like a season full of egos & drama. I am not a big Puffy/P. Diddy fan but I have to give him his props on this one. I enjoy watching him mold a crew of nobody's into potential somebody's...

I watched last season and it certainly gave me a more well-rounded view of P.Diddy. That's why I was so happy that they were running another season with him.

These guys are a trip.....waaah, they don't want to be at Best Western, waaah, they don't want to work out at 6 a.m. (actually, it wasn't at 6 a.m....BECAUSE THEY WERE FRIGGIN' LATE!), waaah, they don't want to get Diddy a slice of cheesecake....OMG!

Diddy said it best; there are plenty of things that he doesn't want to do sometimes, but he just smiles and does it. Every entertainer didn't have it easy, they had to pay their dues to get where they are....these guys need to stop crying like little girls and get that eye of the tiger, like they had during the first season.

I know! Do you think Dylan would be happier sitting in jail?

This group really disappointed me with their attitudes last episode, I re-watched it this weekend, I loved Frederick before, now he's all mad, not one of them had a good attitude about it. lol, I just had a thought, imagine if Mysterious had actually made the band, she would've lost her freakin mind if she had to walk to Brooklyn, lmao... I would almost pay to see the freak-out session she would've had.

Aw man, this show is off the hizzook!!

I've never been much of a Diddy fan, but I admire his dedication....he wants the group to eat, sleep and live hip-hop! After all, he didn't make the money that he currently has by just deciding that he wanted to be in this business, he really paid his dues and he wants them to do it, too.

I thought last night's show was a breath of fresh air (not from the kids, until maybe the visit to the shelter and when they finally buckled down and learned something as a group, but from P.Diddy) after surviving Fame.

He cracks me up when he gets in the car and then uses his pa system to make a parting comment :)
