I'm not sure of that one myself. Just a bunch of kids arguing. I'm too old to listen to that anymore. The concept sounded interesting, but the commercials don't seem to follow that thought. May have to watch the first and see if I can sit through it.

My sentiments, exactly..been there done that...LOL

Didn't any of these TV producers have English in high school?
Didn't they have to read Lord of the Flies?? Seems to me kid's in charge didn't turn out so good!!!

It doesn't matter... I'm still hooked on Wife Swap. However... I just found "How Clean Is Your House?" on BBC...I'm not usually a fan of British TV, but this is great!

I like feeling that my house isn't even close to the worst!!

Bethany

Oh yea, Bethany
Nothing like that show to put our reality into perspective. Whoa, I think those ladies have an american version on tlc or something during the day.

I haven' watched that one but TLC had 'Clean sweep' and Style has Clean house'. Necie Nash (Sp?) is the host on Clean House and she is a bit irritating. But I do enjoy their shows. What I can't get is why they can't agree to give up their mess. They called the show to get some help but yet they don't want to get rid of the mess.

Another one of my reality shows ended tonight. The ventriloquist won on 'Americas got talent'. I would have preferred the young girl, Julienne, but he was my next choice. David Hasselhoff sang and I wouldn't have voted for him at all.

Today is the day that pirate Master puts a new episode online. Yeah, that's weird. For anyone that has been following, they were down to the final 4. So when the captain blackspots 2 of them, only one eprson can vote. So that one person can choose one of the pirates that have the black spot or mutiny the captain. So that person carries a lot of weight. During the challenge, Ben and Jay agreed that whoever was on the team with Louie would throw the challenge so Christa could win and stay Captain. So Louie was set to lose which ever way it went. Fast forward to the Pirates court. Ben has to get it off his shoulders. He tells Louie that he threw the challenge. Jay votes to eliminate Louie. So next week its Christa. Ben and Jay. But the preview show that the whole crew come back, all 13 eliminated pirates. It doesn't show what role they have. But the 3 left are on thier own next week, no crews.

We didn't watch any TV tonight. Our daughter had the boxed 7 season set of Star Trek Voyager and we watched the first and final episodes of that tonight. I don't know if it will ever be the same for me now since I know who got married, etc. But I went to the BB8 website and saw that Jen was evicted.

there was stuff on cnn about kid nation. i missed it. soemthing about expoiting kids. anyone see that?

article in ny times:
http://www.nytimes.com/2007/08/22/us...rssnyt&emc=rss

part of the article

But after the production ended in mid-May, the parent of one child in the production complained to state officials that the children's treatment bordered on abuse. Four children received medical treatment for accidentally drinking bleach, one child was burned on her face with hot grease while cooking in an unsupervised kitchen, and most of the children were required to work 14 hours or longer per day. They received a payment of $5,000 for their participation.

but i agree...not a show i would watch. i have 2 at home. :wink: and neighbors down stairs have 4 under age 7. :eek:

On BB Jen did get voted out, 6-0, she got a penalty vote from big brother because she broke her slop requirement and ate real food. Before breaking the rule she packed to leave.Then she all took Evil D's cigs, all 4 cartons, broke them all and put bleach on them she said. We didn't see the bleach part. Jessica got HOH again.

Amber and Daniele won a trip out of the house at the last POV event. They both appeared on the new Power of 10 gameshow. That will air next week.

ABC National News on Thursday had a story about Kid Nation similar to CNN's, but didn't state that they got paid. They also said CBS still plans to air it and that they are casting for Kid Nation 2.

Thanks for the BB update, Beth. I missed all but a few minutes of it last night. It really is getting crazy in there....

Wow, thanks for the info about Kid nation. I know I'm a reality show freak but that takes it to far. FYI, the bios on Survivor China are up on its website. Some interesting characters, even a grave digger

BB was really lame tonight. Dani and ED had arguements. And overhearing the 2nd argument Jess/Eric together in HOH bed decided 2 fights in 2 days they must be staged.

They had the first luxury competition. Divided into 2 teams by Jess she chose boys v girls. They dressed in clothes, and each piece had a letter on it. They had to spell 3 words by taking off their clothes and hanging them up on a clothesline. Soap bubbles were dispensed on both sides of the wall where the teams hung their clothes. The girls won. The prize, a 2 minute shopping spree. They could keep all they put on themselves.

Jess put up Amber and Zach for eviction.

I've not watched Design Star yet. I lost control of the remote.

I still haven't watched Design Star from Sunday. After the news tonite.

On BB, lets see, Eric finally put the moves on Jessica and kissed her. Then as America's Player, Eric, was challenged to kiss a housemate picked by America. They chose Jessica, surprise. He got that task completed pronto. I think it's so funny watch Eric and his mouthwash just before he goes and kisses Jess.

They showed scenes on the Power of 10, that Dani and Amber were on. I've got that one recorded, but Amber be Dani and got to play for the big money. She got to the $100K question, missed it and dropped down to $1000 won.

Eric won the power of veto. He chose not to use it. Jess wanted him to use it so that D i c k or Dani would get backdoored to the block. On Thursday either Amber or Zach are leaving.

So were the players on BB8 actually nude? PM finished this week. My cable company, Sigecom, switched over to WOW network on Monday and I guess they were still having trouble on Tuesday cause I couldn't log on until 2PM today!!!!!!!!:eek: So I finally was able to watch the finale. Luckily since it wasn't that popular of a show it wasn't mentioned on amy of the networks. Ben won. Last week when he was black spotted by Captain Christa, he confessed to Louie that he threw the challenge so that they would loose. So he and Louie talked in this episode and Ben offered him the money he got from Christs last week which was $12,500. Louie was pretty far down in the money winnnings so he readily agreed.

The show started out with Jay, Ben and Christa all competing individually. Ben won which put the other two on the black spot. So here come all the ghost pirates back who are the jury. They choose Christa to go up against Ben on the final challenge. So the two get to pick 3 others for a crew. I felt so sorry for Louie. He wanted to go so bad but he is a liability instead of an asset due to running so slow. I think Ben won in the end because he, being a man, was stronger. They had to lug a heavy crate through the jungle by themselves.

Yep, Doydie ...
 

on BB, the players were nude except for soap bubbles and stratigically placed gray spots edited in before airing.

Thanks for the PM finale info. It sure turned into a dud of a show. I would have thought with the successes of the pirate movies with heartthrob Jonny Depp and Survivor tv show, it would have been better. Oh well.

I've got to watch Last Comic standing to see who was eliminated. Then the final 4 completed tonight too.

How are all your shows going? It's been kind of quiet on this thread. Only one I'm watching right now is HGTVs Next desgn star. I think the season has gone quicker this year. Next week will be the final challenge and then America votes. Up till now the judges have done all the eliminations. The final two are completely different design styles. One is wild and the other conservative. It will be interesting what America thinks.

I watched BB tonight (Sunday) and Zach won HOH in the marathon competition, narrowly getting by D i C k. Noone wanted to see his HOH room. He nominated Jessica and Jameka for eviction.

Eric told Jessica he was the one to cast the misleading votes most were blamed on Nick or Jen. He also copped to the mustard incident. Eric said (to America) it was because he wanted to come clean on the chance they have a future. America wanted him to get Jameka nominated, so that task was completed.

Eric won a phone call from family to keep or give away during the HOH competition. He gave it to Jessica. Jessica got a call from her 20yr old brother who just returned from Iraq last Friday. He feels really bad that he didn't use the POV last week to take someone off and have D i C k or Daniele put on the block. That may have prevented Jessicas nomination today.

Design Star is way quicker this season. I've not watched it yet tonight.

I am still watching the crime show on Spike, Murder. I enjoy it. It is way more difficult to decide what evidence may be important to get the murder solved. If you like CSI you may like the show.

On BB (Tues) everyone participated in the veto competition, HOH, 2 nominees for eviction and the 3 other housemates. Janelle from BB seasons 6 & 7 was the host. It was called Jannellivision. One by one the players sat in a big comfy chair and were spun round an round for 60 seconds. They then had to run a path to the other side of the wall. There was a screen with 2 houseguests swirled together and you had to guess as many as you could in the time allotted. Dani won the POV. Later she decided to leave the nominations as they were.

Eric is really worried (and rightly so) that Jessica will be voted out. He had a convo w/D i C k to try and solidify the alliance between the four of them. ED and Dani are wanting Jessica out. They are the only two voting besides Eric. America wants Eric to vote out Jameka, which he would have done anyway to save Jess.

Eric's task as Americas Player was to mimic the houseguest selected 3 times before the veto ceremony. He had to mimic D i c K. ED just laughed at Eric and Eric enjoyed teasing ED.

The preview said that Thursday is a Double Eviction, so it will be a surprise how they do that. That will bring the house down to the final four.

So on double eviction, do they just evict the two that are nominated or is there usually some suprise eviction also?

No it's a surprise. Sometimes they do a quick HOH who then the winner has to nominate and they vote again on the live show. Then another HOH competion as would happen as usual. Remember the shows motto: Expect the Unexpected. :D

The only double eviction I'd like to see right now, is Ed and his DD Danniel. The two of them make me vomit.

I'd like to see Eric win and then he can share with his girlfriend Jessica..

Looking forward to tonights festivities...LOL!

Sally

I agree, those two gotta go. Eric creeps me out a bit with the nipple rings. Since someone pointed them out to me, they are everywhere. Yuck!

I'd love for Jessica to win. Her voice still annoys me a bit, but she has a good heart and that goes a long way in my book.

May have to watch it live tonight instead of waiting for it to record and avoiding the commercials. We'll see. A nice mindless diversion sounds like a perfect evening to me. :hug:

OK, can't wait. What happened???????

Biggest Looser starts next week. They will have all three trainers on, but it comes with a twist.

On BB, Jessica and Eric are gone. Too bad, too sad.

I cant believe that the evil twins are still there (Dad and Danielle)..Yuck. I hope the final two will be Zack and Jameca, or there is no justice.:D

Here's the long summary, to go with Sally's cliffs notes version, of Thursdays BB. :D

All were told of a double eviction that night. By a vote of 2-1, Jessica was voted off. She told Julie Chen she Loves Eric.

HOH competition, D i C k won. After commercials had to announce nominations, Eric and Jameka.

POV competition, Dani won. She chose to leave the nominations.

Second eviction vote. Eric was voted off, 3-0. As America's player for every 5 tasks completed he won $10,000. For a total of $40,000. The second place runner up on the show only gets $50, 000. I'd say he made out like a bandit.

The final four are D i C k, Daniele, Jameka and Josh.

Design Star finished up its challenges tonight. Anyone else watch it? I thought both rooms had their worth. I would be more pleased paying that amount of money for Kimms room though. Todds room would have been nicer in a more modest hotel/resort. Also Kimm listened to the judges suggestion, Todd did not. But that's Todd. He believed in his vision and wanted to stick with it. I will be visiting with the grandkids :circlelove::OuttaHere::Crazy 2::Heart::Excited::inlove::partytime2::trampoline: :crazy::Head-Spin::BeamUp::Dancing-Chilli::Grin-Nod: next week when the have the finale and reunion show. Can you tell I'm just a little excited. It's been about 6 weeks since I have seen them. I got a new camera this week and I sent it with my other daughter this weekend so she could get some pics. I know, silly of me, I'm going to be there in 7 days.

The camera. My husbands employer gives nice service awards. When we first started there it was just the customary service award jewerly. But starting our 25th year, they had a nice catalogue to choose from. This was his 35 years and we got a nice digital camera. It's my first. I have been more than satisfied with my Advantix camera for about the last 10 years. It's a Sony Cyber shot w55 and has several buttons and each button has a menu under it. It will take a lot for me to get used to it. Oh, in case you are wondering, we started work on the same day. That's how we met.

I'm proud of Zack for nominating D ick and Danniel for eviction.

Please don't let either of them get POV and don't let either of them win the prize. I'd loved to see Zack and Jamika as the final two.....Yes!!!!:D

I missed Sunday's Design Star and Big Brother cuz I was moving. I went to DS web site and voted for Kim, then I looked at the rooms. Todd seems a bit juvenile to me, so I hope Kim wins.

So on BB, the two D's are nominated. That's cool. Does that mean only Jameka votes? Did I miss anything else?

So what happened tonight on BB? I watched the first episode of Biggest Loser. I don't know how those guys do it, I guess they have such a controlled diet and excersize many times a day but the biggest weight loss for the week was a guy, 62 years old, with 30 pounds!!!! There's a twist this year, don't they always. They started out with 18 people, they had a contest to choose red and blue captains which chose their two teams of 6 apiece! So that left 6 people on thier way home! Think again. Jillian showed up, so they now have a black team that the other teams don't know about! And boy is she working them.

After Zack put up both of the evil Ds, danielle won the power of veto....took her Pop off the block and Jameka went up and since Pop was the only one to vote, Jameka went to the Judges House.

Somehow those two will get rid of Zack and then....WHO CARES who wins.:rolleyes: the only way for Zack to survive is if he wins the HOH compitition tomorrow night......Keeping fingers crossed for him, but with the luck of the Evil Twins, I'm not holding my breath.:p

On BB it's Donato vs Donato, hmm. I hope the younger gets the top prize. I'm ready for Survivor to start, it's just a week a way. Yes!

I am embarresed to say that even though BB has to be the foulest show on TV, I did have some interest in it. I also will be glad to have Survivor on. On Survivor you have some of the name calling and back biting but nothing like what I have seen or read about on BB. I don't know how CBS gets away with it, especially at the hour that it is shown here in Southern Indiana, 8 PM.

Survivor China starts Thursday night!!!!!!!!!!!! Is there a smilie for a happy dance?

It's not a reality show but Prison Break starts Monday!!!!!!! Now if I can just get Medium, ER and Numbers to start the new seasons.

I don't really give a rat's @#&* which one of those evil Ds win tonight, on BB8, but I'll watch just to see what the others have to say about them. It'll probably burn your ears...LOL!

I saw on tonights Entertainment tonight that Evel D, won. He going on a trip around the world and wants his daugher to come along. She seemed to want to get away from him. :D

Tomorrow is Survivor and I'm so ready, for the new season to start next week. There's Dancing with the Stars and House, for sure.

I agree about Survivor. When does Dancing with the stars and House start?

So Evil D won. What did the others say about him, or will that burn the computer up

I was surprised that the jury on BB were pretty calm when they were talking to D & D. When Julie Chen asked D's son, Vincent if his Dad was acting different while in the house, He said NO. So, he must talk and act like that all the time.

Bet he goes thru the money like it was water...

Survivor, Dancing w/the Stars .. here we come.....:)

Dancing w/Stars starts Monday the 24th, I think it's on 2 or 3 nights next week. Cable TV guide doesn't go that far to check or set to record, maybe today it will.

I still haven't watched the final BB. Going with Dad to clean up his parents gravesites and get ice cream and enjoy the view of Lake Erie this afternoon. It should be a beautiful day, again!

Survivor starts TONIGHT ! YEAH! China here we come!

:hug:

Kid Nation started last night. I just couldn't stay with it. Boring and a bit abusive I think...:confused:

I probably won't be a religious follower of survivor.. It depends on what is on opposite it..:D

Have fun with survivor tonight!!

SURVIVOR started !!!!!!!!! Can you tell I am just a wee bit excited. I was kind of suprised about the first person being voted out. Being an older person and the experience he has, he should have been a leader. I must say that James rocks! That man has it all, beauty, braun, everything. I guess what he lacks is social skills. The radio talk show host, can't remember her name. It's going to be interesting how she does. She couldn't stay in the Budhist temple and do all the things the locals were asking her to do. But the Immunity idol looked kind of Budhist. They were kissing it and everything. If the individual immunity is also the same, will she wear it? The two teams are so different, one has a goood structure, physically and team wise. There sure are some boobs, literally, on this season.

Oh, I watched another reality show tonight that I have never watched. I watched the second hour of Beuaty and the Geek. I hope it isn't opposite of Survivor cause it seems interesting.

OK, I didn't want to do it but I watched another reality show tonight, americas next top model. A couple of weeks ago I watched some reruns of the previous season and that's all it took. There must be some 12 step program for this or something. And I don't know what I'm going to do Tuesday night. Dancing with the stars, which I've never watched but want to is on opposite of The biggest loser. And there are a couple of other season premiers that night. My VCR will only record so many show at a time.
