"Episode 4 (**contains spoilers!**)"
Posted by Rabies on 07-06-04 at 00:28 AM

What a great episode. First of all, why were people saying it would be 90 minutes? It was only an hour, like usual.

Anyways, I loved how they handled Ingrid.
I loved the "twist" they added as a result. We were all saying the show would be boring with just Tim, but they sure solved that problem, didn't they? (By the way, speaking of Tim, where the hell does he come from, that mean still come and part their hair like 50's Dads did? Too weird...)

Now, on to my complaints: Why toss out Bryce? He was easily one of the more believable characters and really made for interesting storylines. TJ is almost a non-entity. I thought that him kissing Piper's mother and his shallow speech would have made for the perfect reason for him to get booted.

Can't wait till next show....

Because that is what the preview said. You sound like a shill.

Shill:
One who poses as a satisfied customer or an enthusiastic gambler to dupe bystanders into participating in a swindle

A shill? Really?

IMO

This show really is... THE.BEST.SHOW.ON.TELEVISION.
How's that for shill?

Regardless of the "most shocking eviction ever", nonsense.
It was great to hear about Ingrid's NEW "character" involvement.
Just knowing that you're "NOT A SCHMO!" is reason enough, for Ingrid (and for me)to continue to Dupe a real schmo(aka TIM). She should be proud, and I'm glad the production team decided to involve her in the Aftermath.
The best part, for me, was hearing the "New Girl" talk about how Un-trustworthy she thought Ingrid seemed.
Oh Boy is she in for a ride! Now, that girl is a real JaneSchmo!

The playful symbolism and the seemingly obvious "Stealing" from other shows formats is soooo enjoyable. From "Meet My Folks" and "Who Want's to Marry My Dad", the Lie Detector. (But... how cruel to let the other "courting guys" stay and listen to the answers and see the results. Oooff!)
To the PornSoaked innuendo of the challenges and the "Pearl Necklace" and "Dip your wick" ceremonies. These are priceless TV moment in ALL OF HISTORY *echo* HISTORY *echo* HISTORY *echo*.

My real question is... why are you taking it all tooooooo seriously. Laugh. Have fun. Enjoy.

I'm hoping the producers still pull some kind of practical joke on Ingrid. It probably won't be as funny but *something* else should happen to her.

I taped the show last night and watched it this morning. I guess the wrestling ran over time because I didn't get the very end of Joe Schmo. I missed who she evicted, so I'm glad that you mentioned it was Bryce. I came here to check. Agreed: terrific show!

Screw SpikeTV! I also missed the eviction because I Tivo'd the episode and I think it purposely ran over to try and keep viewers, which sucks because I didn't want to miss Bryce's eviction, although I figured he would go next due to something Ingride said in an interview.

I agree, gotta love that new girl. I was thinking at first "Is the point of this series to show that men are dumb and women are less dumb?" But the addition of a true Jane Schmo, so very clueless, will present both sexes as equal-opportunity idiots.

Tim is too much! Really! Unbelievable!
I also agree with tribephyl, Joe Schmo is currently the best show on TV (counting only network and basic cable) but there isn't much competition during the summer.

Was Ingrid ever really a Schmo? or was she a plant from the beginning to sucker us in?

....oooooooooooooOOOOOOOOoooooooooooo.....

...I like the idea, but, no - she was meant to be a Schmo. The role just didn't suit her!

>Why toss Bryce?

Maybe Bryce will pull a "Trish" and come back to stalk Piper. I don't think we've seen the last of him.
