"My thoughts on this catastrophe"
Basically Moronic Productions (borrowing from Planet Sucks on that one) really screwed this one up. Their editing was some of the worst ever, the rules were unclear, the players that were shown the most didn't win, must I go on?

Bringing on the third couple was the absolute stupidest thing to happen ever happen on a reality show EVER . No matter who it was, that couple was bound to get votes because they bonded more with the jury. Gina and ADrian were able to work the jury (I have no idea if they did) because of this. They weren't on the boat the whole time, thye were able to get toknow the jury members in ways that the real final four hadn't. The final four was robbed.

Darin was never developed as a real player. We didn't get to know him well, never got to seehis thoughts and feelings. BMP robbed us of any rooting value for him. ALthough I think he had the best line of the show, "Don't call me brother, Anthony". ANd Gina? All we saw was her being sick and whiny, why would we root for her to win? Michael, Toni, ANthony, Melissa and Jeanette were the only people that were really developed. They were the only people that I cared about on some level.

BMP should have had cameras on 24/7, regardless if they werein a hotel or the boat. We should have seen the bribe sequence. That scene affected the outcome of the game.

The jury was one of the worst around. Most of them voted because of their personal feelings. Not for a moment do I believe they voted FOR Gina and Adrian, but against Michael and Melissa. The third couple was a cop-out. It would have been much more interesting to see Anthony and Toni have to decide who to vote for. No one voted on who played the game the best.

Simply put, we the viewer were robbed. The minute I saw that Gina and Adrian were added, it was obvious that they had a real shot at winning. This was truly pathetic. Michael, regardless of your vote total in the end, you are the true winner. At the very least, you did a hell of a lot better than Anthony, but you showed class and integrity. I truly hope you get some oppurtunities in the future from this experience. Best of luck to you. And I know you hate this but what the hell HUGS

GOD BLESS AMERICA

1. "Thoughts"
LadyT, I totally agree with this "third couple" argument. Either Michael or Melissa would have been deserving winners; they were the Colby and Tina of Love Cruise, protecting each other and staying on the boat.

The actual outcome was like getting Survivor down to Richard and Kelly ... and then bringing back Gretchen for the final vote ... guess who would have won? I guess we should be grateful for small favors (that Adrian and Gina DID NOT win), but BMP really needs to rethink the rules before they do this again. Either it's a GAME, like Survivor, or it's an UNSCRIPTED DRAMA, like Temptation Island and BMP's The Real World, but right now it's neither fish nor fowl.

Why we didn't see more of Darin is a mystery -- he couldn't have been THAT dull, could he?

2. "RE: Thoughts"
Darin (who?) didn't get much air time.. but I suspect that is
because he was pretty silent... he was too busy throwing
puppy dog eyes at Melissa (I like you so much, do you like me?
do you? do you?) while Melissa was busy trying to have her cake
and eat it too. (has a boyfriend, but getting all this attention
from another guy, why not tease him and drag him along to keep
him on your side?) (very manipulative... even if she did have
feelings for him, she was leading him on IMO)

I felt bad for Darin, he seemed to really actually like her..
(what? love on a "love cruise"?)
I've just known so many girls who have done that sort of thing
before, letting guys think they have a chance just for the
attention (or in her case, possibly also to make sure she
always had an "ally"). I guess we'll just have to wait for
the "reunion special" to see if there were really any true
feelings on Melissa's part... unless Mike wants to give us
the scoop now that the show is over..

I'm still trying to figure out why a girl with such a serious boyfriend would go on a love cruise without him. Didn't she/he understand it was called LOVE cruise and not buddy cruise or friendly cruise?

<<Their editing was some of the worst ever,>>

They were so cheap that they couldn't even mic the main players so that when Darin said,"I could have BAWLED when so and so did such and such.." they ran captions to make sure that the audience could understand what he was saying. Unfortunately, the idiot who worked the Cyron machine couldn't spell or didn't know the difference and it came out on the screen as, "I could have BALLED....." Yeah, Darin, we're sure that you could have and hopefully did, since you made her a hundred grand! You should have had a three-way for her mythical boy friend for that much!

A damned Stalk of Bananas had more charisma than Mr. Five O'Clock Shadow. He was right next to Sideshow Bob in the brains, personality and on screen presence categories.

This had to be the most horrible, disgusting piece of crap to ever see the light of a flickering television screen!

No wonder that Mike can write such witty, but bitterly stinging summaries of the other reality shows. He's been on the worst of the worst and is obviously envious of the better productions, oh, such as "Chains of Love" and "Temptation Island." In comparison, those were real works of art.

Since were all sharing our thoughts....

Mike, good strategy, poor follow through. Ralph and the rest of the Chitown crew let you hang out to dry and they all suck.

Melissa, date Darren(who?) or date you current boyfriend but not both. Else Monkemon is going to start a thread calling you a slut and unlike his last such thread he will have a point this time.

Toni, Let me get this straight. According to Lisa you bagged Anthony on your first night as a couple and when you got sent to loser island you bagged Greg. Where is Monkemon when you need him? Toni dear, you are one Psycho B!tch from Hell. When I saw you approaching the table with your friends last night and I saw all that silverware I was sure we were going to see a scene right out of Friday the 13th. You need therapy quick. Stop whatever you are doing and run, don’t walk, to the nearest mental health facility. I sincerely hope you are a bi-polar ‘cause I can’t believe that what we’ve seen is you actual personality. Drop a few lithium tabs and chill.

Ralph, I looked up backstabbing weasel in the dictionary and found a snapshot of you. You must have balls of steel to sit there and let Mike take what he did when you were just as guilty. Take of the shirt, you insult all law enforcement personnel by wearing it you two-faced pr!ck.

Andrea, go see a throat specialist. Your voice is neither sultry nor sexy. If Toni is Psycho B!tch from Hell then you must be her little sister.

Anthony, you are a joke, you poetry is a joke but the biggest joke I saw was your strategy.

Tony, what’s with the Mohawk? This isn’t high school.

Overall I thoroughly enjoyed the backstabbing and lying but like you all I found the rules to be almost as psycho as Toni.
