Pantageas | Wednesday, July 09, 2003 - 03:24 pm     Now that 1 of the 3 we know are destined to leave has gone, who do you think the other two will be? I vote Donell & Cara. Him because he can make himself dislikeable so quickly. Her because she seems to be the "weakest" of the three girls. Too bad I can't think of a way for you to make a poll game of this one Puttergirl(the AI2 game was too much fun!). |
Cricket | Wednesday, July 09, 2003 - 06:06 pm     Seamonkey stated: "If one is sent home, both should be sent home." I agree completely, Seamonkey. That would have been the only fair thing to do, as the fight wouldn't have happened without Donnell's bullying and antagonistic remarks. I was sickened by the outcome of this situation and especially by the girls (except for Christena) taking Donnell's side. They just don't get it. I think Donnell is a very unhappy person with no self-esteem and he doesn't like himself much or he wouldn't need to taunt others to make himself feel good. Wasn't it Abe who helped Donnell through that mission with the stairs and the high building? How quickly Donnell forgets. After the last episode, I hope this group loses the rest of their missions and don't really care to watch anymore. |
Puttergirl | Wednesday, July 09, 2003 - 06:47 pm     Pantageas, I think my BONUS question would be "who will Donnel turn on next!." And then there is the "how many missions will it take for Donnel to lose for them". |
Puttergirl | Friday, July 11, 2003 - 04:12 pm     Just got this from: http://realworldroadrules.blogspot.com/ "Cara and Dave (South Pacific) are rumored to be DATING. Yes, Dave is at the MTV message boards, talking about (amongst other things) that he and Cara are together. Seem kinda weird? Definitely... Especially after the fact that we hear that Marybeth and Dave were supposed to be the two lovebirds of this season. We might see something on these two, we might not." |
Seamonkey | Friday, July 11, 2003 - 07:53 pm     That's almost as thrilling as the news about various wannabes in that play (see RR/RW challenge thread. Almost. |
Realitynut | Monday, July 14, 2003 - 03:11 pm     I missed the part of the show that dealt with the fight, so I didn't know that Abe had gone. I've been reading some of the posts, and I must say I think Donell is a little punk. He said so many times that he liked pushing Abe's buttons. It's unfortunate that Abe resorted to punching him, but man, did Donell ever deserve it. If I were Abe, I'd be waiting for Donell when the show was over, and I'd beat the crap out of him. Don't get me wrong, I didn't like Abe either, but when Donell or anyone else needed help with the mission, Abe was there. I don't think I'll be able to watch this show again till Donell is gone. He makes me want to hit him, and I'm not a violent person. |
Puttergirl | Monday, July 14, 2003 - 04:18 pm     We could see him go as early as tonight. It looks like they could possibly fail their mission. |
Realitynut | Monday, July 14, 2003 - 05:58 pm     That would be great. I don't think they can pass any of their missions without Abe. Maybe once it's up to Donell to carry his own weight, they will all see how useless he really is. |
Kappy | Monday, July 14, 2003 - 10:28 pm     I watched part of tonight's episode but only three of the team really had the pressure to succeed on this particular mission. And of course, Donnell was not one of them. He was in a position where all he do was be there and the other person would be to blame if he didn't reach him. The team did fail the mission but they have to fail one more for another person to leave. But I have to say that I could not even enjoy watching these people with Donnell still there. I think Christena is the only one left that I have any respect for. Reality, I think Abe is above waiting outside to beat Donnell up when he gets off the show. Abe will move on and continue to grow up and realize where he needs to change. Donnell, on the other hand, will most likely to continue going through life blaming others for his own actions. Whereas I do think Abe learned something from all of this, I don't Donnell learned a thing. Too bad. |
Seamonkey | Monday, July 14, 2003 - 11:06 pm     I had an uneasy feeling watching.. at the beginning Donnell was acting like he could go off at any time and when the first jump didn't work, Donnell looked almost happily disgusted. But, the made it through this time. I have a feeling that he wasn't allowed to be the jumper which forced the two girl team. |
Misslibra | Monday, July 14, 2003 - 11:48 pm     Realitynut Abe don't have to wait outside to kick Donell's butt he already kicked his butt pretty good inside. LOL I really hope when the finally have to vote someone off Donnel will be the one to go. |
Grooch | Tuesday, July 15, 2003 - 04:39 am     I think from reading Wanda's columns at E, before the show started, that Donnell makes it to the end and they all respect and like him at the end. I do know there is one more boot, but it is not Donnell. |
Laura11103 | Tuesday, July 15, 2003 - 07:26 am     That was one scary challenge yesterday. I felt so badly for Christena, but they really seemed to pull together as a team anyway. Donnell and the new guy seem okay, passing that challenge together I'm sure helped. So they've now got one more mission to fail before someone gets booted and from what I read above it won't be Donnell... I guess it'll end up being the new guy for that reason (he's the new guy). All I know is Dave is gorgeous! |
Grooch | Tuesday, July 15, 2003 - 07:27 am     Laura, I believe it will be a girl. I just can't remember which one. |
Max | Tuesday, July 15, 2003 - 08:58 am     They said at the beginning of the season that three of the original cast members would end up leaving, so we still have two to lose. |
Sweetbabygirl | Tuesday, July 15, 2003 - 09:03 am     Unfortunately guys, the girl voted off will be Christena....Kristin said so in her just updated column. |
Seamonkey | Tuesday, July 15, 2003 - 09:08 am     I'd rather not have known that in advance, but, whatever.. Sigh, she's the only interesting and thoughtful one of the whole group. |
Sweetbabygirl | Tuesday, July 15, 2003 - 09:10 am     Sorry, Sea (SBG slowly backing out of the room); I'll know to zip it the next time. |
Seamonkey | Tuesday, July 15, 2003 - 09:13 am     Oh, no.. I just came back, but too late, to say.. that wasn't a dig at you, SBG.. I know enough about the internet that these things do leak out.. had you just included a link, I know I'd have clicked on it So, please, come back into the room, and not slowly I was more just sad .. this season has be ruined for me already and knowing that Donnell may go to the end and be made to feel he's a hero, probably sealed the fate of the girlfriend back home. |
Sweetbabygirl | Tuesday, July 15, 2003 - 09:20 am     SBG gleefully skips back into the room. |
Grooch | Tuesday, July 15, 2003 - 09:23 am     Thanks, Max. I thought they only were going to lose 2. Wow! I can't believe they get rid of Christina. I wonder if she failed another mission and that is why, or is because of a clique thing. I really hate this voting off thing. |
Laura11103 | Tuesday, July 15, 2003 - 11:14 am     How they could possibly vote Christena off before Donnell is beyond words to me. Maybe Christena wanted to go? That's the only thing I can think of. What a mess this season is turning out to be. |
Kappy | Tuesday, July 15, 2003 - 01:07 pm     I'm also sorry to hear about Christena if that ends up being true. She was one of the three yesterday put in the position of holding all the responsibility of the challenge and it was a tough challenge! You'll never see Donnell being put in that position. During the challenge, when the new guy was teamed up with Donnell, Donnell was screaming at him to MOVE UP, MOVE UP! And all I could think of was how Abe literally pushed his ass up all those stairs and did it without screaming in Donnell's ear. But so far, he's not harassing or taunting the new guy. It makes me wonder if the producers read him the riot act about how close he came to being kicked off along with Gabe. I hope so! I can honestly say that I cannot even stand watching him now and if Christena goes before him, it just proves how vapid and shallow the rest of the team are. |
Seamonkey | Tuesday, July 15, 2003 - 05:12 pm     Sigh.. yeah.. well this has become such a downer show for me that I think I'll just flip to it during commercials for the marry my dad embarrassment because it may be less upsetting.. I thought the original spoiler was that they had to boot three people, so.. we will see. But, Christena is my fav. |
Puttergirl | Saturday, July 19, 2003 - 03:35 pm     Am I the only one that didn't know this? (from www.realitytvworld.com): "The New York Post is reporting that about a month before Mary Beth Decker spent weeks traveling through Fiji, Tahiti and New Zealand in a tiny RV with five castmates last February as part of MTV's new "Road Rules: South Pacific" series, she was the Playboy Cyber Girl of the Month. The magazine reportedly originally discovered her for its 2002 Girls of the Big 12 pictorial. Decker said she told the show's producers about her deal with Playboy early on. "It was mentioned a little bit here and there but not too much," she said." |
