I'm mildly dreading the results of his makeover next week. I keep thinking Mindi's going to go 'urban cowboy' and turn those wide-hipped pants into full-fledged chaps.

My eyes! My eyes!

I don't which is worse. Those wide-hipped pants are really making me want to hurl a brick through the TV.

OMG yes!!! I was sooooo hoping Richard would be the one to go last night! I thought because they showed him & Mindi so much that they were goners!

What do you think he carries in his pockets to make them stick out so much? I'm banking on a graphing calculator and maybe a palm pilot!

I'm *crossing my fingers* that he goes next week!

What was the deal with the lip on the guy that got eliminated? I have a really hard time remembering the names of these guys - I should take notes.

I was kind of sorry to see him go and Richard stay. But it would be nice to see Richard actually learn something. I don't think he'll learn it from Mindy, though. She's pretty rude. And not much of a "beauty" IMO.

Hi Ellecar,
You think Mindi is rude?
Wow, I missed that.

I think she's got girl next door beauty.

I thought the girl who got eliminated wasn't really beautiful...
but, that's just me.

I love the show!!!!!

His name was Brad - the one that hooked up with the annoying blonde "Life-size Barbie model" from last week.

I think it was herpes on his lip.

Looked like herpes to me too! That's what a cold sore is!

Wonder if he got it from the blonde?

Watched it for the first time last night, and yeah, I really like it too. There are a couple of pretty sexy geeks, IMO. The guy who lost last night was very cute.

I like the competitions. It's fun to see how each group performs when they have to do something that is so foreign to them.

I think getting bathing suits that would look good is a really tough challenge, even when you're picking out your own. We all know our own size but most of us still have to try on tons until one really fits well. So getting ones to fit well for the girls was not easy. Scarlet did look great in both her suit and evening dress. I agreed with Caitilin, who I really like, that the judges were way too harsh. It was as if they'd forgotten who these guys were and what the aims of the show are.
I also wonder if it would have been possible for the two teams who picked who to send to the elimination room to have picked the same team. This was the first time that two different teams chose. We didn't see them conferring on who they would send so it seems they could have picked the same team. I wonder what would have happened then- if they'd have been given a chance to go out and confer again.
It was interesting that one team chose Richard (who's really getting annoying) because they felt he was incapable of change and the other team saved him because they felt he needed to stay there longer.

LOL, you're right about picking out bathing suits! I agree Scarlet did look the best, plus she went out there with confidence and had a good time which made a difference, IMO.

I don't think they could pick the same team because two teams have to compete against each other in the elimination room.

I guess I should clarify what I meant. Could they have gone into the hallway with that amazing staircase, each having decided on a team, only to find out it's the same team and then the second team would have to re-confer, or do the producers allow the two teams to confer with each other before they give their decision.

Nutz, Scarlet did really seem to have a lot of confidence. She had all the model moves down pat. I wonder if she's done any modeling.

I was so disappointed with Richard last night. Last week, my favorite moment was the one between him and Chuck. Chuck was obviously disappointed, too. I think he'd hope to have a positive impact on Richard but Richard does seem to have so little confidence in himself that even when he's asked to tone it down, he can't. It's really pretty sad to watch.

Oh, silly me! Thanks for clarifying!

I guess, in that case, as a team you have to decide ahead of time who your second choice would be in case the first team chooses the one you would've picked. Just guessing. I mean, all of the teams are there when the others are chosen, so it's not a secret once they are in the entryway, they could be discussing that ahead of time though (between the two teams).

Won't it be interesting to see what happens when they're down to only three teams? They are going to have to change the format somehow, unless one team wins both picks.

Sillier me! You're right. If every team is told to choose a first and second, there's no problem. I didn't think of that. It will be interesting to see what happens when there are only three teams. It might be fun if they reshuffled the teams since that could show that the guys have grown and can now go outside their comfort zone by having to work together with someone new. I know that Chuck (whose nose hasn't bled in weeks ) and Scarlet would love that!

There's a fun trivia series on the B&G website:

Scroll down to the bottom. It's on the bottom-right side of your screen.

I only missed 4 overall (*pats self on back*). The massage one was the most foreign to me, but I made a lot of good guesses.

One thing I liked seeing was how supportive the girls were with the guys clothing choices, even if they knew things wouldn't fit or were not exactly "beautiful".

Caught this one for the first time last night.

Two things:

1) What's with the wide eyed, "AHA!" experience - that even geeks can be nice, interesting people? What planet have these idiot women been living on? It's not as if they're all that gorgeous. The cutaways are hilarious.

2) Richard.Must.Go. There's a difference between being a geek and being purely annoying. Richard is the latter. Even when people are giving him some "getting along" tips, he refuses to comply. Supremely annoying + Being an egomaniac = A$$

Everyone is entitled to my opinion.

I agree with your assessment of Richard, chatt. Everytime I see him, I think Jerry Lewis at his lowest level.

Ham and eggs - a day's work for a chicken, a lifetime committment for a pig.

Ill be the only one who supports this idea, however here are my reasons why: A) two of the dudes are just barely there boring and the other one is a judgemental prick.
B) Chuck needs to grow a pair. The only reason why he didn't go after richard last week is because caitlan didn't say that he could. besides hes no more annoying than the rest of these people
C) With rich gone this show would get boring really quick.

Thank you for giving me honor in hat form.
