PLEASE NOTE: The Reality TV World Message Boards are filled with desperate

be fooled. Trying to get everyone to agree with you is like herding cats,
but intolerance for other viewpoints is NOT welcome and respect for other
posters IS required at all times. Jump in and play, and you'll soon find out
how easy it is to fit in, but save your drama for your mama. All members are
encouraged to read the
complete guidelines.
As entertainment critic Roger
Ebert once said, "If you disagree with something I write, tell me so, argue
with me, correct me--but don't tell me to shut up. That's not the American way."

That might be the funniest thing I've ever seen. Oh my God! I'm in tears. Fabio is a deal-breaker! There are a lot of things a man can look past...but Fabio?! Are you kidding me? I'm outta here. Man, you think you know somebody. And then they spring Fabio on you! LOFL.

2. "RE: Fabio! " |
LOL! I hear you!I couldn't stop laughing......and then they play the melodramatic music and have Larissa musing that this must be "how Brian Worth felt"....I was seriously rolling on the floor! THIS is the big secret? I have to say I was truly hoping, once she picked Gil, that the "big reveal" would be that she used to be a man. That would have been SUCHHHHHHHHH better TV than "I used to date Fabio". MM Maybe this world is another planet’s hell

9. "What a waste of time!" |
What a stupid ending! Really, get over it Gil. Who cares who she dated.He is weak, insecure and has no personality! He lead her on until the very end and never had any sincere feelings for her. Talk about being there for the wrong reasons. All he wanted was to become an actor. I hope he gets blackballed by the entertainment industry and we never see him on tv again. Realisticly, I never really saw her with Brian anyway. He has a heart of gold but, is just a little too geeky. The show failed her by not really finding any good matches for her. I mean all the Joes were weird looking geeks and all the jocks were assholes. She never really had any good prospects. Where are all the real Joes in the world? I feel like the show wasted my time and Larissa's time. What are your thoughts?

I think you summed it up pretty well. They seemed to go out of their way to find the geekiest Joes and the most obnoxious jocks. My biggest complaint with Larissa's choice is that she wasn't choosing the guy she was going to spend the rest of her life with. The only consequence of her choice was a 4 day vacation together. It seemed as though she really liked Brian more than Gil. She could have dumped Gil and spent a few days with Brian before giving him the "let's be friends" speech.

He'll be 45 this month on the 15th!! Write it down so you can celebrate!He's Italian, not French by the way. And lastly, I'm a guy, but I'd have to say even at 45, Fabio's better looking than Gil, and probably has a better personality (okay, I've gone too far, but how about he's just as vapid as Gil!). Cibao P.S. Thanks for the heads up on the outcome. I'm on the West Coast, and came here to see if it was worth my time to watch the show. It isn't.

...that had to be the funniest 10 minutes in the history of reality television! And for the few idiots in this thresd who didn't throughly enjoy those final ten minutes you should NEVER for the rest of your life attempt to watch anything that might be construed as funny, cause you obviously can't grasp the concept of humor, let alone the beauty that occurs when satire and parody happen unintentionally.
Those last ten minutes were like art. BEST. ENDING. EVER.
P.S. I have never seen a media whore dumb b!tch look any more b!tchfullness than Larissa did by the end of that show. Truly priceless.
And as stupid as Gil was/is, the guy was right on two counts. One, dating Fabio is definitely a deal breaker and two, he shouldn't have to explain the reasoning to any self respecting guy in America.

gee shakes, I thought you'd been banned.Anyhow, here's the ironic part (and not in that feeble Alanis Morrisette way)... When Gil and the rest of the steroid monkeys came in on the ship, with his shirt unbuttoned, abs rippling and his hair blowing in the breeze, Gil was Fabio. The show finally came full trapezoid.

The whole thing was an act! Larissa is an actress. All of her tears meant nothing! She'll get a newscasting job somewhere (probably Missouri) and marry an up-and-coming politician. Her whole life's goal is probably to be the next Maria Shriver.

38. "The other creature who rode Fabio's face" |
Fabio Takes It on the Nose by Joal Ryan Mar 31, 1999, 6:55 AM PT Fabio. So, what's up with him these days, anyway? For all those who asked (and the millions more who didn't) comes the strange-but-true answer: The world-famous famous guy suffered minor facial cuts Tuesday after being clocked in the nose by a bird during a roller-coaster ride in Virginia. Really. The odds of the above circumstances (Fabio in Virginia; Fabio riding a roller-coaster; Fabio colliding with a bird) converging for one--single--police-blotter item seem incalculable. But the long shot came in. Here's what happened: On Tuesday, the beyond-strapping spokesmodel, best known to TV audiences as the I Can't Believe It's Not Butter guy, was booked to appear at the Busch Gardens theme park in Williamsburg, Virginia. The venue was hyping its new roller-coaster, Apollo's Chariot. The park people apparently thought it would be cute if Fabio tried out their new toy for a "Modern-Day Adonis vs. Ancient-Day Sun God" promotion. (Um, Fabio was supposed to be the modern-day Adonis.) So, anyway, Fabio--tearing himself away from his butter-alternative advocacy work--agreed. He showed up at the park. Got strapped into the ride, seated amid several adoring female fans. Then, the roller-coaster rolled. Early in the ride, a bird--by some accounts, a goose--flew into Fabio's big-target face. The spokesmodel was bloodied--as were his adoring female fans. He got cut. They got splattered. Fabio, 38, was taken to a hospital, where he was treated for a one-inch cut to the bridge of his nose. "He's fine, no serious injuries," park spokeswoman Deborah DeMarco assured the Washington Post. No word on the bird's motives--or funeral plans. (Its broken body was later retrieved by park officials.)
The goose and Larissa. Some guys have all the luck!

I think its easy to judge her in the situation that this show presented itself to her...who here can honestly say that physical attraction isn't or has not been a strong influence on whomever they find themselves interested in?....let alone have to grapple with that dillemma on a national television show....to all...ask yourself...am I as pure of heart in my own life...would I choose someone that i'm not physically attracted to over another because they really liked me?....and for that matter....would Brian...great guy....choose someone he found not physically attractive...over larissa....i guess we are going to get a taste of that with the upcoming sequel of the first installment of this show.....the fact is we are all human and its easy to throw stones from the cheap seats...look at yourself...perhaps...a little more deeply....before you judge someone whom you might find that you are no different....

Very astute observations, Gina. She really flip-flopped on the "be honest, except for Gil" business. And when Gil said he wanted to be an actor, she gave him a look that said, "You idiot. We talked about that in the production meetings, but you weren't supposed to say it on camera." But when you hang with Fabio, you have certain standards.

I completely agree. I was in histerics when Larissa revealed the Fabio secret. The only two dorks here are Larissa and Gil. She contradicted herself and he was as deep as a frying pan. Brian looked like the better kisser to me. He'll have plenty of dates after this......

I have to say that the final twist was the most disappointing ending ever! I had already heard that Larissa had dated Fabio so it was no surprise to me. I am glad she didn't pick Brian though because he really irritated me...and I wouldn't have picked Gil either...but it is pretty obvious that he never was really that interested in Larissa, but I think that was the case with most of the "hot" guys...personally I would have gone for Michael Klein...sure he seemed arrogant, but he had a reason to be...at least he didn't take the show seriously and make himself look pathetic like some of the other guys did...especially Tony, he had to be the most annoying of them all...but I can understand why the "hot" guys didn't like her, because she has to be the most annoying person..she makes bad decisions and overanalyzes the stupidest things...I think she needed to realize coming into this thing that a lot of her suitors weren't there to fall in love, but to make a television debut...it makes sense reality tv love is a hoax and she had to be stupid to think otherwise. Anyways, Gil obviously thought that Fabio was a great excuse to get out and I agree!! It was funny and it really serves Larissa right...as for Brian Worth I'd be more than happy if he lost that accent...

I loved that ending. !!Fabio!! Wow! How good is that? Rockon!!Now, don't be jealous, but I actually was in the same room as Fabio two years ago. I was at an art gallery opening in Los Angeles and he was there with some guy perpetually on a cell phone (his agent? body guard?) Mesmerized, I think I followed him around (at a safe distance of course) for about 20 minutes. He was uber cheesey. Had on these pointy reptile cowboy boots, tight off white pants, ... he has this huge chest ... very thick guy. Still with that flowing mane. I know, I know. It was one of those moments of a lifetime. *Sniff* I'm getting misty-eyed, must go now ...
