Twiggyish | Sunday, May 19, 2002 - 01:38 pm     Let's not see Louie Anderson or even Santa Claus for that matter, because they make it acceptable for overweight people to be on TV. Gee they'll have to go have surgery to make them look like all healthy people out there. Yes, indeed, we'll only have thin people on tv. Yup, that's the ticket. Oh and also, be sure to check their blood pressures, be sure they don't have cancer either..but then..oh yeah..thin people don't have health issues!! |
Angelnikki | Sunday, May 19, 2002 - 01:42 pm     yeah my step mom is skinny as a rail and has diabetes. im overweight and i dont. most people think its an overweight disease. lol twiggyish |
Karuuna | Sunday, May 19, 2002 - 02:19 pm     Well, before we start worrying about not watching overweight folks on tv, maybe we should not watch those who have affairs, take drugs, are alcoholics, who gamble, and those who just earn too darn much money.... wait, those are professional athletes... hmmmm..... |
Webkitty | Sunday, May 19, 2002 - 02:28 pm     Rosie is: http://www.norbert12.com/images/groovy.gif She will do fine. |
Spygirl | Sunday, May 19, 2002 - 02:37 pm     I'm LOVING this thread. Keep up the good fight! hehehe.... |
Gail | Sunday, May 19, 2002 - 02:48 pm     Celebrity Survivor? Sure!! Can we vote on who the contestents will be? I vote Dennis Quaid, Nicolas Cage, John Cusack, David Duchovny, Keanu Reeves, Dean Cain, George Clooney, and Ewan McGregor for starters. Some place hot and tropical. |
Prettywomen | Sunday, May 19, 2002 - 02:56 pm     look guys I said I was sorry about the weight thing. I am fat too but when your fat you don't throw yourself around like you know it all and wear tight clothes...I am 5ft 6 inches and I weight 200 pounds. I am big and I look nice...I just got tired of watching her for Kmart and then her own show and then the kids shows on that one channel...She has her hands in everything I think it would have been nice too see someone else hope she doesn't have a big part to play in it .....Whether you fat or thin you can have health issues and whether your out spoken or not doesn't make you a better candidate....Anderson Rules sorry but I just love him...Any one else I would have like but NOT ROSIE........I am sick of Rosie...She helps kids so what????? Many people do alot of things for people but they go un-noticed. Well folks there is nothing I can do about them getting her but I just wished they would have gotten someone else....I am so excited maybe I will not notice her...I hope Neleh wins and Pappy is second I am cheering them until the end... |
Prettywomen | Sunday, May 19, 2002 - 03:00 pm     Good luck every one hope this final survivor is what you want...Hope the shows is a great sucess and I hope they get a better host for the next survivor....Also I am a diabetic and all I said I wished I could go on survivor but I don't think a diabtic could because you have to eat and take insulin...But I would make a wonderful survivor....IN a way this is not fair people with disabilities can't go on...O well take care all and enjoy the show.. |
Gina8642 | Sunday, May 19, 2002 - 08:14 pm     Ok, til now I couldn't get why anyone wouldn't want Rosie hosting this thing. Now I get it. Did anyone else think that was kinda lame??!!?? Everything she showed was old news. If you were a fan, you already knew about it. How 'bout some insightful questions? How 'bout teasing out some info we didn't know about? How 'bout just hearing some thoughts from Kathy? I barely watched any of the last 30 minutes. Maybe it got better, but I don't know. It was more like a second recap episode. Don't they know ratings go DOWN during recaps. Show us something, anything NEW. URGHHHH!!!!!! . |
Squaredsc | Sunday, May 19, 2002 - 08:25 pm     i think she did an ok job, but way too many commercials but she has no control over that. glad she talked about the mint though. |
Gina8642 | Sunday, May 19, 2002 - 08:28 pm     The mint talk was good. I think she is right. That very well may have cost Neleh One Million dollars. |
Twiggyish | Sunday, May 19, 2002 - 08:29 pm     I thought she was a riot! |
Squaredsc | Sunday, May 19, 2002 - 08:30 pm     i hate to say this, but i liked the gilligan's island song, im into corny stuff what can i say. |
Gail | Sunday, May 19, 2002 - 08:47 pm     I thought she was pretty good! |
Prettywomen | Sunday, May 19, 2002 - 09:05 pm     Ok guys Rosie did do a great job I am eating my hat.......It was great ...She was great...Rosie you did do a great wonderful job... |
Spygirl | Sunday, May 19, 2002 - 09:13 pm     She was terrific! That was the best interview show I've ever seen of all the reality shows. Why can't Rosie like Big Brother? She is exactly it needs to gain more viewers. |
Lancecrossfire | Sunday, May 19, 2002 - 09:13 pm     I wonder why not a single word was said to Robert, Zoe, Peter, Patricia or Gina?? Or why they didn't get to say anything. (they did show Giona laughing once) |
Sia | Sunday, May 19, 2002 - 09:15 pm     One of Rosie's annoying traits: she doesn't interview anyone, she YELLS QUESTIONS AT SOMEONE AND THEN CONSTANTLY INTERRUPTS HIM before he can complete a sentence!! She gets all hopped up and just acts really off-the-wall. Also, normally Rosie isn't a bad singer, but tonight she couldn't find the right note to save her life. I found her singing excruciatingly painful. She also demanded a kiss from Colby. Did she even ask Patricia more than one question? It seemed Patricia and Peter were overlooked for the most part. Poor Peter seemed to hang back from the others at the conclusion of the "Reunion Show." Poor guy, he must find it hard to live down being voted out first. I was pleased that all the Survivors received a vehicle, but did Sean get a second car? That would be great, but he probably would refuse a second vehicle, wouldn't he? |
Lancecrossfire | Sunday, May 19, 2002 - 09:17 pm     Sia, he might sell one to pay the income tax on the 2 cars? |
Sia | Sunday, May 19, 2002 - 09:26 pm     Right, Lance, that is a troubling issue, the tax you have to pay on prizes won! That shouldn't be! You know, I can see him giving one to his mother; he seems a very loving, devoted son. |
Muse | Sunday, May 19, 2002 - 10:33 pm     Of course on Survivor you get paid sizable prize money based on the time you're there. Sean made it to fifth place, which could easily buy him a few more Saturns if he wanted. I'm guessing that he'll either sell the second one (and possibly the first, if he doesn't want it) or give it to charity or something. Sia, I agree about Rosie yelling at someone without letting them answer the question. It's not a big deal, but it gets annoying after the first few times she does it. I felt bad for the Survivors who didn't get to say anything. They barely even got shown. Overall I felt Rosie was okay. Not great, but not horrible, either. About the same as Bryant, actually (totally different styles, of course)...but I know a lot of people absolutely *hated* him, so I'm guessing a lot of you guys thought it was a huge improvement with Rosie (?). |
Mygetaway | Sunday, May 19, 2002 - 11:14 pm     I've stayed off the computer all weekend, (avoiding spoilers, LOL)and am now trying to play catch up. I admire Rosie and what she has down with her "celebrity". I think she was a good choice, considering Bryant (who I disliked as host) wasn't doing it. I do wish she would have had more time to ask some other questions. Way too many commercials! I felt bad for Peter, and Patricia too. |
Mssilhouette | Sunday, May 19, 2002 - 11:17 pm     What seemed to be needed was a meld of Bryant's news style interviews where he gets to everyone and is professional but with a bit of Rosie's fan humor and insight. I'm sorry but Rosie did a crappy ass job. I didn't like Bryant's being stiff and aloof but at least he talked to EVERYONE or said something to them. Heck if I didn't know better I would have thought that Neleah won what did she ask Vee about 2 questions..sheesh. I'm sure I'll hear more about Vee on other inteviews but all that time was sucked up with Rosie doing that silly Gilligan song. That was precious interview time that was wasted. I wanted Vee's family to at least greet her on stage but all I got was few seated shots then a bit time showing of Neleha's family. *Sigh* Sadly rosie will be back next survivor. She did not do that great of a job...We want to hear about the Survivor's not what Rosie thinks about them. All she can do is ask the question on stuff we don't know about. I was not thrilled with this woman being the host. I actually felt sorry to see Jeff leave. |
Sunshinemiss | Sunday, May 19, 2002 - 11:34 pm     I liked Rosie.. not perfect, but definitely better than any other so-far. She shows some enthusiasm (maybe over-the-top sometimes, but better that than not at all....) I agree that there could/should have been more time on each person. Why not break it up into two nights, and have the reunion show be entirely separate, after the hype and heat of the moment is over, calmer heads can prevail and we can get more of the inside juicy details that we (or I, anyway) thirst for. It was fun, and enjoyable. I like this Survivor best of any so far. |
Myjohnhenry | Sunday, May 19, 2002 - 11:45 pm     I agree with Mssil....I personlly didn't care for the show...wasted time on Rosie and Colby, wasted time on a "production number" that was the worst part of the whole show, not great interviewing or humor, didn't even "interview" everyone... (the above reflects the opinions of the poster and does not necessarily reflect the opinions of management or the general membership) |
