Tuesday Reality TV
Cupid spoilers later in the post....
But first BB4. These people are so boring. The X Factor is a fizzle. There is no one I want to stick around to watch and no one I love to hate. Yawn.
Cupid is hands down my favorite reality TV love and marriage show. The biggest reason is because the guys get involved in setting up the dates and they do different things than on Bachelor, Love or Money, Joe Millionaire etc.
Speaking of Love or Money, my cousin called me to help her friend with a legal problem just when Cupid started and I accidentally taped over Love or Money. Can anyone fill me in on the Return of Rob and who got the boot?**
Cupid Spoilers below.....
Poor Scott got the boot. Probably a good thing because it was clear Lisa wasn't into him but I can't believe Robert wasn't even in the lowest 3 vote getters. People must be voting for him just to keep watching him bumble through his dates. I still get the feeling he is putting on an act -- when he gets booted he'll probably reveal that he's from New Jersey and fooled everyone.
I think I figured out what bothers me about Ken's looks -- lantern jaw. His face is so long and thin, his chin is in a different area code than his eyes.
This week the guys had to buy clothes for Lisa to wear on their dates. They got $1,000 for both the outfit and the date. Sounds like a lot but they dropped then off at what looked like Rodeo Drive where I suspect that wouldn't go far. And the shopping and date were after going sleepless for 30+ hours. Too flipping funny. Ken bought a pink lace bra for a backless strappy dress and several of the other guys bought bras that didn't work with the outfit. I don't think the producers told them what size she wears because they seemed to be guessing on the size for both clothes and shoes.
Robert once again gets the award for creepiest date. He bought the ugliest yellow thing and shiny metallic flat slippers/skimmers. And in the store he sprayed perfume on the underwear he got and then smelled them. Eeeeuouw! The topper was that he started crying on the date. If he isn't putting on an act, he is one strange dude.
Hank. Mercy me. If I were Lisa, I'd just jump him and then beg my family and friends to vote early and often for him. He is so my type.
Joe is not especially good looking but he's such a nice guy, he'd be my second choice.
**The friend's ex-BF took her credit card and forged her signature on about $5,000 of stuff (she has a clearly feminine name -- don't clerks even notice when some guy is signing as "Pamela?"), she made about every wrong choice she could in dealing with it and is getting sued by the bank. I called a couple of the local credit counseling places but they can't do anything once suit is filed so I gave her the name and number of the bankruptcy lawyer to whom they send clients who they can't help.
