"Larissa: "Soon as I find out who it is, they're gone."" |
I caught one of NBC's promos this evening for Average Joe (while watching The Apprentice, of course .... lol).Anyway, that's what Larissa says about the guys who blew up the boat she was in with Tony. Will she find out who it is? Will Brian tell her? Will someone else tell her? Will the guys fess up? (It's two of the nondescript himbos, who did it, by the way.) This should be a very interesting episode! lol

They actually blow up a boat she and Tony are in???? wtf??? If they do that, they should not only be gone from the show, they should be arrested. That goes way beyond the typical Big Man on Campus high school prankster stuff we are used to seeing from them.

I suspect the producers leave a very suspicious-looking detonator in the middle of the house with a cryptic sign: "DO NOT PRESS!" Who could resist? I mean, surely the detonator won't affect Larissa on her date, right? Right?!?!?!?!

LAST EDITED ON 02-06-04 AT 02:06 PM (EST)Yes of course it was set up by the producers. Yes, it is indeed very cartoonish, and yes it probably does have some silly sign on it that says "push me," or "don't push me." lol Or at least it ought too ... he he In my original post above, I was anticipating the drama that this will create when Larissa finds out who did it. Two of the nondecript himbos pushed the plunger, and it was Italian Michael "Corleone" who urged them on. I hope she eliminates all three of them with a sneer on her face. loooooool To see Larissa read the riot act to these himbo jerks will be extreeeeeeeeeemly amusing. At least that's what I hope happens. Another possibility is that she won't find out who did it right away, and will end up being perhaps a little bit bitchy for an episode or two until she finds out. And then she REALLY lets them have it! We'll see..... lol  I'm not usually a fan of such ridiculous "drama," but since that appears to be what the producers have in mind for this silly show, I figure ... what the heck .... go for it! lol "Revenge is a dish best served up cold" Ricardo Montelban as Kahn Star Trek II

The unfortunate thing about the painting is that is really doesn't look like her (from what I can see), and it basically kind of sucks. This guy makes his living as an artist? I guess it's the thought that counts.

Here's what Larissa said on the show last night about Michael:"Cardemone, I think he does things without thinking about it. However, he seems like a funny guy. He seems very sincere. I always have to go with my instincts." Without a doubt Michael did a good job of talking himself out of a mess when Larissa brought pizza and confronted him and Michael Kline about what had happened. He apologized well and Larissa bought it, whereas Michael Kline gave the lamest "unapology" that I have ever seen! Larissa has a good heart and gave Michael the benefit of the doubt this time. But as we all know, Michael did not deserve that. Hopefully he gets his ass sent packing the next time he screws up. >Yeah I think that Larissa should >have eliminated Michael C too! >

I wouldn't be surprised to see Michael C"orleone" in the Final 2 (with Tony). He has a silver tongue (I mean his way of talking himself out of trouble, don't get nasty!) and women go for that in a big way. Plus, he seems a decent sort at heart, genuinely remorseful for any mistakes he may have made. He's shown more depth as a human being than any of the other himbos and I think Larissa looks at him as a puzzle to be solved. Again, the right way to "position" yourself with ANY woman!

Again, the right way to "position" yourself with ANY woman! << I hope BeaverBoy doesn't make it to the final Two. If Larissa is that kind hearted, or he that smooth, each of us might be looking at a serious debacle. What i'm really worried about is that, he does seem like the kind of Jerk to pull it off. He's one of those @$$holes, who gets the girl and you and everyone knows he's just WRONG for her, but she can't see through it, and So far, Larissa has like missed every cue.. Kudos for getting rid of Michael Klein, he was an @$$! The minute he paused to think about her question or that he was pointing fingers, i was like, you're GONE! Dude! You don't even know it. The Sad thing about the episode was the placement of the bomb. What keeps the producers from Adding a button to the next Average Joe? That gives each of them the chance to ruin the date. I think it's just wrong, but you know the direct thing, i think it was poetically apped. None of the Joes pressed it, and i heard Fredo directly say., "Iwouldn't touch it.. i don't think we should." which was so funny when they were pointin fingers afterwards. He shoulda just say. "Are you dead Paison, i know exactly what i said." I gotta say, Tony's a good sport, and i'm pullin for all three of the Joes. Michael C is a sleeze. I'm prayin he don't get to the final two. God no, not to the final two.. I'm hopin they allow her to bounce more Jerks (jocks) so it comes down to 2 Joes. I think the last three got a shot.. Seriously. I'm thinkin Michael C will open his mouth and blow it for himself next week when Larissa is dressed up as the mother. Michael C don't mess up when he's before Larissa. Cause he's slick Mickey... Yep, he'sa smooth talker. Half the time, i just want to scream! Larissa, listen to what he's sayin! IT's no sincere, it's fluff! He'd make a great politician... Michael C: "What i meant when i said that things would be better with Segregation, um is that most Blacks like havin their own groups, you know? Like Italians and spicks, and Japs and Limeys, you know? They like havin their own room and sittin on the back of the bus? You know? I think people like not causin trouble and being in their place? A lot of Black kids were suddnely confused, being made equal and all and being able to use the bathroom any time they wanted. You know? That's all i mean." Sorry i wasn't clearer. Women like being called symbolic animals that represent innuendos ..." Larissa:
"I can see what you mean. Yeah, well i accept your apoligy. I'm goin with my gut here. I' m cuttin Fredo, and Tony. (Tear). I know she's not that bad, but thats how i feel about Michael C.

Oh I don't know. I think Larissa just hasn't had a chance to go on a date with him yet. She likes to do that before she kicks a guy off. She said that Michael had asked to be given a chance, so she will give him one. I've seen relationships like the one you were talking about. I just don't think Larissa is going to fall for it. As she said in the previews for next week, "some of these guys are really on thin ice already." >The Sad thing about the episode >was the placement of the >bomb. Yeah .... but did you notice that the incident actually seemed to bring Tony and Larissa even closer together?

LAST EDITED ON 02-10-04 AT 07:04 PM (EST) Michael dodged a bullet, but he is not going to win in the end, in my opinion.
>I wouldn't be surprised to see >Michael C"orleone" in the Final >2 (with Tony). Well that's just your speculation... >He has >a silver tongue (I mean >his way of talking himself >out of trouble, don't get >nasty!) and women go for >that in a big way. Yeah ... until they realize that what he is saying is just talk and not the truth. >Plus, he seems a decent >sort at heart, genuinely remorseful >for any mistakes he may >have made.

No doubt she does ... I hope she figures him out before the end ... for her sake. >Again, >the right way to "position" >yourself with ANY woman! God I hope not! LOOOOOOOL But I see what you are saying. The key question: is Michael just a screw up? Or is he ruthless and Machiavellian? I'm not convinced yet that he doesn't know exactly what he is doing and just has the gift of talking his way out of it. At any rate, if it's Michael and Tony in the final two, Tony wins hands down!

29. "RE: Gil and James" |
Does anyone have anything to say about either Gil or James? What do you think their possibilities are of making it further in this game vying for Larissa? They haven't really gotten much onscreen face time but Gil seems to be kinda laid back and in chill mode...kinda nice. James..I dunno what to think of him. Any other opinions on these two?

31. "RE: Larissa: "Soon as I find out who it is, they're gone."" |
I'm worried about Larissa's compulsions too. She's really prone to occasional boughts of losing control when it comes to the Himbos. Watching the Pool fight a couple of nights ago, was in my opinion like watching some bad Teen movie from the 80's. I fully expected Sex to Soon ensue. IT's pretty sad, how much intensive contact she gives to the Himbos, who are as friggen BLAND as they come, in my opinion, in contrast to the occasional Hand holding, pecks she occasionally, and less often give sthe AJs? I really hate the whole, let's get in a hot tub thing they constantly do on these shows. You know? it's so Cheap. What i actually like is how Brooke Burns made her a little jealous. Heh. "what is she doing hanging on my guys?" Oh? Now they are your guys? Oh, they'll be glad to know this. They're hanging on for their life here against the Himbnos! Reality shows really do bring out the truth about people. i sensed the same sort of stuff when i was watching Paradise Hotel. It's like a train wreck, you know? you want to scream, you know, if you have a great body you get exactly what you want. I hope I'm right about Michael C. I really hope he blows it tommorrw. I'm sad to see Fredo Go,, but I"'d REALLY REALLY REALLY prefer if it came down to Two Joes. Iknow it won't happen. Does anyone know what the success rate is with many of these relationships? I know Joe Millionarie is the one that apparently can't hold a relationship, and the Bachelor has a lot of cheating and broken relationships, but i'm wondering aobut the Fox stuff, including Mr. Personality... I also wonder if Maleena is actually still with her, Hunk? Mojo/

LAST EDITED ON 02-11-04 AT 04:29 PM (EST)I think Larissa is actually very sympathetic to the Joes. The himbos are just a flash in the pan to her, by comparison. >I'm worried about Larissa's compulsions too. > She's really prone to >occasional boughts of losing >control when it comes to >the Himbos. Yes, but later in the same episode she admitted that she was not proud of herself for some of the dates she'd had. She realized that she needed to get away from all of that and get back to just being herself and really getting to know the guys. >Watching the Pool fight a couple >of nights ago, was in >my opinion like watching some >bad Teen movie from the >80's.
Sure, but even that was an example of getting away from all the kissey kissey hot tub stuff and just being yourself. >I fully expected Sex to soon >ensue. IT's pretty sad, how >much intensive contact she gives >to the Himbos, who are >as friggen BLAND as they >come, in my opinion, in >contrast to the occasional Hand >holding, pecks she occasionally, and >less often give sthe AJs?
Yes, but that's because she actually connects with them on a real level, especially Tony. >I really hate the whole, let's >get in a hot tub >thing they constantly do on >these shows. You know? >it's so Cheap. Yes it is. >What i actually like is how >Brooke Burns made her a >little jealous. Heh. "what >is she doing hanging on >my guys?" > >Oh? Now they are your >guys? Oh, they'll be >glad to know this. >They're hanging on for their >life here against the Himbnos! I don't know how long you've been watching Average Joe 2, but again, after watching all the episodes, it seems to me that Larissa is actually connecting quite well with the Joes, and views the himbos as being very superficial, eventhough she admitedly indulges for a while with them. Then after that, she sends them home. For example: Todd, whom she sent home on Monday. He couldn't understand why Larissa sent him home after he had so much kissy face with her. >Reality shows really do bring out >the truth about people. >i sensed the same sort >of stuff when i was >watching Paradise Hotel. It's >like a train wreck, you >know?
Oh My God! Don't get me started! Paradise Hotel was the biggest reality farce of all time! But not because of the bodies and the hot tubs, just because they changed the rules constantly with so many twists each episode that by the time it was over the conclusion had become meaningless. >you want to >scream, you know, if you >have a great body you >get exactly what you want.
On some shows, maybe. But I don't think that's where Average Joe 2 is headed. >I hope I'm right about Michael >C. I really hope >he blows it tommorrw. Even if he doesn't, I don't think Larissa will chose him in the end.
>I'm >sad to see Fredo Go,, >but I"'d REALLY REALLY REALLY >prefer if it came down >to Two Joes. Iknow >it won't happen.
It won't happen simply because the producers are requiring Larissa to eliminate equal numbers of Joes and Himbos each episode. >Does anyone know what the success >rate is with many of >these relationships? I know >Joe Millionarie is the one >that apparently can't hold a >relationship, and the Bachelor has >a lot of cheating and >broken relationships, but i'm wondering >aobut the Fox stuff, including >Mr. Personality...

They say that he and Maleena see each other about twice a year. As for the Fox stuff, it's all garbage in my opinion. lol

44. "RE: Larissa: "Soon as I find out who it is, they're gone."" |
LAST EDITED ON 02-12-04 AT 00:39 AM (EST)I would agree with what you are saying about Larissa and the Joes, except in the case of Tony, where I see a true romance. Tony's first date with Larissa was intimate and personal, in a way that none of her dates with the himbos have been. It was also romantic in a way that none of her dates with the other Joes have been. And I think it was also more romantic and electric than any of the dates she's had with the himbos. Why? Because Tony and Larissa touched base on a spiritual and artistic level. That in turn made it romantic and just a little physical. You don't see all of those elements in her dates with anyone else. This alone was the total package. Their second date, although cut short by the bomb stunt, reaffirmed all of those things, and in a way brought them even closer together as they reacted together to the stunt. By the way ... thanks for the comment about Paradise Hotel. LOL Talk about true romance! That was a show with absolutely NONE of it ... he he But as I said elsewhere, what *really* bothered me about that show was all of the twists. One week the originals were winning, the next week the barbies, and back and forth. That would have been fine if it was the result of genuine competitiion by the players, but instead it was just manipulated and controlled by the producers. Who needs it!
