Lurk,

I went out to dinner with my husband one night and I swear my ex-boyfriend was sitting at the table in front of us. (He even had a brown glass bottle of beer like he used to drink...) If I hadn't heard with my own ears -- from his cousin -- that he had passed, I would have sworn that was him. Kinda freaked me out the rest of the night. I had to stop eating to call my friend and tell her about it. She told me to go over and ask his name but I couldn't even go there... so I know exactly what you are talking about!!!

ARRRRGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH I just got in from NY, spent the hour this show was on catching up on the BB boards (to find I hadn't missed ONE thing), TOTALLY forgot this was on tonight and for the first time I desperately wanted to see it (for reasons mentioned above). SOMEONE SHOOT ME! And could someone please tell me if that Munch is still there...I really wanted to see if the resemblence stayed the same when they showed more of him. I just cannot believe I missed this, especially when I was just here doing NOTHING!

And Yikes Junkie...so not just me. Weird experience huh? Least you were with your hubby...that's a positive.

I have to go scream at myself some more. I just can't stand I missed this.

I just don't see what she sees in Eric. Does anyone else think he's "all that"?

WAde and Greg would have to be the leaders at this point, don't you think?

None of these men are striking me as interesting. Maybe Greg or Wade but that is a stretch.

I do not like Eric at all. The fact he was on another reality show gives me pause. What is he after? Fame of some kind. I think he is looking for a career in the media.

I will be surprized if her choice skips the money at this point. Unless someone really falls hard it just wont happen.

All it takes is one and if he is lovestruck and she feels the same, details of looks won't matter.

Huge gamble. I think she went for the second show partly out of guilt that she took the money, like it was ill-gotten gains and so she didn't mind gambling with it.

I liked that a couple of the guys were uncomfortable with the "group jump in the hottub" scene and that Erin seemed to "get" that..

I think Erin will come out of this just fine; she's cute enough and speaks well enough that she can probably parlay this into some gig that will pay her without the 40 year annuity thing.

If she finds a guy and they get 2 mill.. all the better.

MsBat (hi) I agree that it is likely the chosen guy could take the money.

Just watched my tape a little bit ago. Did anyone else notice the disclaimer at the end (which we've all been talking about for weeks that talks about the 40-year annuity)? I just noticed that there was a statement right at the very bottom of the screen, something to the effect that "The primary participant [ie. Erin] will be compensated for her time, whether or not she wins the $2 million" (total paraphrase, can't remember the exact words). So don't feel too sorry for Erin, folks, she's getting paid to be on this show.

Personally, I like Erin a lot and hope she finds someone she connects with. So far a lot of the guys seem to be quite enchanted with her. I don't think it's beyond the realm that one of them would pick her over the money. I'm a romantic. I'm hoping for a happy ending!

Me too Babyjax, I dont see anyone in the wings yet. It is early though. Erin is very compelling, I like her. This show will open doors for her.

I wish I had Erin's abs, whooo. Eric is giving me the willies. I'm not sure why. None of the men stand out for me yet as a good choice. I think Thomas is darling as far as looks go, but don't have a feel for what he is all about. I'm quite entertained by this show.

Thomas, Greg and maybe Wade are the only contenders I see. Ditto on the Eric willies.

The first guy she kept sounded smitten.

I can't believe no one has commented on the new twists! So, who do you think takes the $$$$ and and what role will (Rob)? Play?

That is an interesting twist! Glad to see there is something there that Erin wasn't aware of!

Immikeswife: Could you please post the twist and what happened? Many of us have not yet seen the show and would love to be spoiled.

Just type "spoiler" then spill it! lol

I, for one, would appreciate it.

Sure....next week one of the guys bails out for $$$$$, not sure how much but Erin does find out and asks him how much he got. Then in 2 weeks Rob returns! Don't know for whay, but could be interesting!

Next week one of the guys accepts money to leave the show... we don't know how much. They show Erin asking (the producers/host?) can you tell me how much. Also, surprize guest, Rob, from Love or Money 1, who was rejected by Erin, is in the show -- we don't know in what capacity.

Thanks! I'm watching it now.

Always appreciate the spoilers. Many of us west coasters do...some don't.

hmmm, "what about Rob"?

I watched the show tonight and totally missed all this twist information! Was it on the previews for next week (because I did miss that)?
Wow that is a very big twist.

So who do you all think takes the money and leaves the show? My guess is Vic, because I think he knows he is on his way out of the door soon anyway.

Curious, you still there?

Every time Vic shows up on the screen he just makes me shudder. Do not like him.

Why on earth would they stick Rob back in there?

She's not going to suddenly choose HIM and if she did he'd gleefully take the million like she did.

Curious you might have missed the twists because this show runs overtime, which is extremely annoying in itself, and causes people to miss the end.

I just had a terrible thought about why they might be bringing Rob back. What if they brought Rob in to stir up trouble amongst the remaining bachelors, who all seem to think Erin is a really sweet girl who would be heartbroken if she found out about the million dollar twist. They'd certainly have to script things for him, cause he's not smart or subtle enough to carry off a little subterfuge. Hmmmmm . . . that would be pretty evil on the part of the producers, but definitely interesting.

I think Vic is cute. I had no idea he was so young and I thought she'd get rid of him because of that.

I can't beleive she got rid of the last guy because he was too similar to her. If she always goes for guys different, maybe it's time to try someone new? He seemed like a great guy. Sad to see him go.

I can't wait to see the twists next week. I wish this show would end at an hour -- going over into the next hour is annoying.

Sorry if this has been mentionned before, I watched the whole show for the first time last night and Erin just bugs me. Why does she tilt her head whenever she talks, it seems like she is trying to convey a sincerity that just isn't there and everytime she hugs someone her hands are in fists as she wraps her arms around whoever, reminds me of a little kid. Sooner or later one of these guys has to twig that she isn't as innocent as they think she is. Hope Rob manages to stir the pot a bit.

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