Julieboo | Thursday, May 16, 2002 - 07:48 am     Anyone able to fill us in on any Early Show or Rosie appearances? I forgot to set my VCR so I missed seeing my Team Smiley, etc. |
Seamonkey | Thursday, May 16, 2002 - 08:01 am     I'm watching the Early Show now, but they said the winners would be on.. soon.. Jane is mentioning "all the winners" and presenting a million dollar check.. |
Seamonkey | Thursday, May 16, 2002 - 08:25 am     They sure are stringing this out.. but they just said "when we return".. The winners of Amazing Race. Too bad I'm so annoyed with the winners, AND the second place AND not having Danny and Oswald there. |
Webkitty | Thursday, May 16, 2002 - 08:29 am     I was so mad at how Jane treated Blake and Paige. She is still stuck in ~they cheated and turned off the Grannies alarm clock~ mode. Get with it Jane! |
Hippyt | Thursday, May 16, 2002 - 08:33 am     What did Tara and Wil say? |
Seamonkey | Thursday, May 16, 2002 - 08:40 am     Well there they are boring and boring.. Paige with strange hair.. Jane says C and A never fought.. Wil and Tara.. Jane tries to make it a joke.. At least they don't have those hats on.. Now to Paige and Blake. Yes.. Jane mentioning sneaky.. Blake gets in.. "that's what YOU've been saying, Jane".. exactly.. They didn't turn off the clock.. Wow.. [paige has very strange hair] Funnest moment? C/A bungee jumping Phil shows up with the check.. Says last hour most dramatic reality television. (yawn) What will they do.. One says quit job, .. but no.. They actually do see clueless about what they might do with the money!! Julie.. it is a good thing you and Jane aren't in the same room.. I do believe you might just get violent, and who could blame you? |
Seamonkey | Thursday, May 16, 2002 - 08:42 am     Tara and Wil.. joked about not arguing, that they just played the same tape over and over.. Wil said it is hard being a separated couple on the show, that by the end they knew they weren't getting back together.. Tara said they knew that 3 and a half years ago Actually all six of them seemed subdued and incredibly without much personality.. which I blame on CBS.. and Jane. Phil at least tried to include all three pairs, talked about what a great accomplishment it was, etc. |
Fruitbat | Thursday, May 16, 2002 - 09:54 am     Very dull I agree. I am not fond of TAR to begin with. I watched it but in a removed way and really didn't care who won. It is tiring to travel and it is tiring to watch people travel. Nothing like the Mole or Survivor. |
Lurknomore | Thursday, May 16, 2002 - 10:10 am     Oh Fruit, my old BB compadre, I totally disagree. I thought the first TAR was the best reality show ever...maybe one of the best all around shows. With Kevin and Drew you got standup, sitcom, drama all rolled into one. I still think this TAR was pretty darned amusing as well. Problem is they need to get a better mix going on the editing of all these shows if anyone asks me. This TAR focused on too much airport running and sitting and too little interpersonal stuff. We'd all care more who won or lost if we got to know the people a tad better. But I still think it's better than this Survivor. And I'm just really grateful that Wil and Tara did't win...one more minute of them treating each other like dirt and I woulda lost it. |
Seamonkey | Thursday, May 16, 2002 - 10:10 am     I just flipped on the tv to Rosie.. and seem to have missed the TAR people in the intro.. Rosie just said the only more annoying person than Wil was Richard Hatch.. and then just billed her book as being "I hate Wil". Sigh.. I think she said they'd be back to get gifts? |
Seamonkey | Thursday, May 16, 2002 - 10:12 am     I love TAR.. glad there will be a TAR III and hope they'll listen to Lurk about more interpersonal stuff.. |
Seamonkey | Thursday, May 16, 2002 - 10:23 am     They just showed Paige and Blake and Wil and Tara waving from the front row as we then are subjected to "Mama got the magic of Clorox", seguing into a KMart ad, followed by a Wendy's salad ad.. I quickly read Dilbert.. And now TAR!! They show the final "race" with C/A passing by Tara. She introduces Alex and Chris. Who are dressed identically, well one has a tshirt under his shirt and one doesn't. Rosie then accuses Chris and Alex for not waking up the Grannies!! then says Blake and Paige are really nice.. One of the guys has some credit Cahd debts to pay off.. One repeats the fastforward experiences, the other says teh bungee-jump again. Surprises.. that wil was trying to screw them early in the race. Rosie asks Wil about how to treat Tara, vs how C or Alex did.. then tells Wil to shut up. Met on the "short bus" at school.. (haha?) Chris is a chef for the PGA tour in Florida, Alex is casting people for Blind Date. All six of them get a gift.. or maybe five of you.. asks Wil if he wants to say anything.. he says he apologizes for.. and Rosie dictates.. being a horrible little man and will never do it again. (bleh..) All six get to go to Barbados.. and they got Wil and Tara separate rooms (uh..l why not the siblings and the friends too?) OK.. I think the Wil-bashing went overboard but obviously Rosie isn't a fan.. She must have ragged on him in the very beginning because Chris and Alex said they were so happy she liked them, they wouldn't want to be on her bad side. So, that's over. |
Twiggyish | Thursday, May 16, 2002 - 10:28 am     Rosie really dug into Wil. She was very angry with him. I'll have to say in his favor (and this is hard), he took it well. She made him apologize for being mean. I have never seen her verbally go after someone this much. I wonder if anything will be said later. |
Grooch | Thursday, May 16, 2002 - 10:29 am     I will add this interview to my list of why I don't like Rosie. |
Fruitbat | Thursday, May 16, 2002 - 10:44 am     Lurk, I would not think it dull if they would cut down the tearing around and let us see some interaction with each other. I liked the first season. Something was different this time around other than casting. |
Car54 | Thursday, May 16, 2002 - 10:59 am     Tom Selleck- remember the gun control interview? |
Wink | Thursday, May 16, 2002 - 11:07 am     Oh my. Rosie is on here right now and Blake and Paige mentioned they are living together in LA then Paige said "actually sharing a room" together. |
Julieboo | Thursday, May 16, 2002 - 11:38 am     Are we still ripping on Blake & Paige? |
Fruitbat | Thursday, May 16, 2002 - 11:38 am     I missed it this morning. Please do say more. |
Fruitbat | Thursday, May 16, 2002 - 11:39 am     No Julieboo, ripping Rosie. |
Wink | Thursday, May 16, 2002 - 11:54 am     I'd never rip Rosie. |
Car54 | Thursday, May 16, 2002 - 12:01 pm     Sharing a room? |
Wink | Thursday, May 16, 2002 - 12:05 pm     Yep she said "Blake and I are living together in Los Angeles now. Actually we're sharing a room" |
Ocean_Islands | Thursday, May 16, 2002 - 12:05 pm     Tara also was mean. Did Rosie rag on her too? |
Fruitbat | Thursday, May 16, 2002 - 12:10 pm     Neither do I Wink, but some do. Tara was very mean. Meaner than Wil in my book. |
