I guess we'll see.....

But I do not think it's been lame at all so far......I am such a sucker, I've been crying my silly head off for the last half an hour! I LOVE SCHMO!

He is giving the money to his mother to <i>invest</i> for his entire family... So they can "build an empire"

Yeah that line really nailed it in my opinion. No, it didn't nail down that Matt's "sweet" and all those other adjectives that have been assigned to him, but it nailed perfectly how much of a dumb ass he is. "Build an empire"? With $100,000? That won't even buy you a house except in remote back-country swamp lands!

And besides that... He recently announced that he's moving to LA to "act"! HABAHABAHbahaahahaa holy crap. He's gonna blow through that $100 grand so fast, we'll be hearing about him living in the gutter by 2005.

I saw a thread where someone had suggested that Matt knew the whole time that the show was fake. I think now that the final episode is almost over that he didn't really know.

It came from the same place as "Don't miss the first 15 minutes of Joe Schmo"--the first 15 minutes were a recap of the previous episodes.

we know now why he did'nt do pre show pub becouse he was'nt mad and would ruin the joke. this guy has been to too many phish shows.

Actually, I can kind of see how matt is pissed. He probably changes his attitude towards the whole thing every other day.

He had to go through all this for a measly $100,000. (probably more like $50,000 after taxes).

You can't really build an empire with that.

If he had gotten 1 million dollars I could see him be content, but $50,000 no royalties, I wouldn't be suprised to see some kind of law suit to get some more change. After all the Joe Shmoe show, and Spike TV have certainly benefited from him.

I don't think he got more money.. I really do not think he did..
He got two trips, a flat screen tv and a trip to the playboy mansion...

are y'all kidding? this guy is the nicest guy. the whole show was how he was the nicest guy. why would he sue spike? there is more money to be made, and biting the hand that feeds you is certainly not the way to go about it. besides, its not in his personality. he's the greatest guy. i loved this show cause i loved matt. so nice. who knows? i wish i could shake that guys hand. he's the best.

call me a matt lover if you will. call me sappy. i don't care. matt is cool.

I agree.

This guy is not meant to be a lawyer. . .hence why he probably dropped out of law school. He dosen't like confrontation. He is laid back and probably very content with what he got. I'm sorry but he doesn't seem like a guy who would want to waste his time against pricey lawyers from a TV network. . . if he didn't want to be a lawyer, then he probably doesn't want to spend more time than necessary dealing with lawyers. He's enjoying that money with his fanily

Well.. he was pretty ticked off, some of the things he said clued me into that, but since he is such a nice guy, he didn't be open about his anger, and didn't show it. Some of the things he said though, woah.. They were kind of scary coming from Matt, really scary.. But I am glad I got to see that side of him, shows that he actually IS human and not some creepy android thing made to be the "perfectly nice human"
And Its probably not that he doesn't want to spend time with the lawyers, its more of the price if anything.. I don't think he'd want to sue either way.. Maybe a more quiet way to vent his anger.. But Lawyers are WAY too expensive, the fees can be more than you make out of the entire thing.. Unless he got a friend who actually completed their time at law school and was willing to take the case.. but a small unkown laywer against the multi-million dollar law firms Spike could hire? not worth the money..

it was spike that bit the hand that feed them, matt was the reason they got the raitings they got if we did'nt like him it would get .5 instead of 1.5. matt talked yesterday of hosting a show so i'm still thinking he worked something out with stone stanley to guest in one of there shows.

the 96x interview matt says he's not mad and never was mad. so the show failed in pissing him off.

Him, for one. He told his friends that they only gave him the 10k for showing up and that he wasn't very happy with being called a schmo. I'm guessing he was told to do so until the show was over. I'll see if I can get an update from him.

"they only gave him the 10k for showing up and that he wasn't very happy with being called a schmo."

sounds to me like he was playing the what I say versus what you interpret game.

They only gave him 10k for showing up...they gave him everything else for staying.

He said in the interview on final episode noght that he didn't like the name "Schmo".

I'm glad even though the show is over the posts are still coming!

Well, get over your ego Matt! We've all had our schmoments in life. The sooner you embrace your schmoness, the sooner you'll break out of it.
