Anyone else start on-time?

visits to each other's home town? That's an interesting change.

I still wish I could figure out how they're picking the winners.

Any guesses?

Team members visit each other's home town.

Sam packs the least luggage?

>Sam packs the least luggage?

I'm pretty sure he was saying that Nicole had less luggage than him.

Jasmine is really blood-thirsty once she gets into role playing.

I really wondered how much of that was scripted. Jasmine giving David the elixir that revives him .... her coming up from behind to slay the bad prince. Just sayin.

I think they were polite hosts, and were going to let her "win",no matter what.

Sam has got The Matrix down pat.

the Matrix was rerun on TV here 2 nights ago. He's got the moves and the quotes. For the first time, I'm impressed with him.

I was impressed with Sam's "Matrix" too, but then I thought, " how much time did he put into that ... movie dialog and all", then it seemed kind of creepy.

Nichole is a singer? I thought she played an instrument.

Sam thinks Nichole's friends are geeky (they are) but sees that they also have lots of fun together.

America votes! Does that include Canada? Who are you voting for?


"RE: Nov.26 East Coast Thread - No Spoilers "
Posted by Earl Colby Pottinger on 11-27-07 at 09:03 PM
I want to vote for Nichole and Dave, damn it!

"RE: Nov.26 East Coast Thread - No Spoilers "
Posted by whimsey on 11-27-07 at 09:04 PM
Can we vote for others to come back?

"RE: Nov.26 East Coast Thread - No Spoilers "
Posted by Earl Colby Pottinger on 11-27-07 at 09:07 PM
Now that would have been a great twist.

Two teams get voted back and then competition continues, I like it.


"RE: Nov.26 East Coast Thread - No Spoilers "

Seems we are stuck with these four.

Nicole proves that women can be a pathetic a geek as men. Unfortunately, she also proved that a geek-girl is just as annoying as a geek boy. I put her in the came category as William(?) unbending, non compliant, obstinate.

Jasmine and David gave the best, most genuine appeal at the end. Give it to them.


"RE: Nov.26 East Coast Thread - No Spoilers "

First, there is no way that I see Nichole being the ash&(^ that William had been.

Second, she did have Sam as a partner, and his early nucky hunt did not leave much room for Nichole to open up.

Look at William's partner Jen, she also did not develop well because of a lack of help from her partner. Nichole was abandoned to fend for herself at first, only later in the series did they really work together.

If Sam had acted like a real team member from day one we would have seen even more changes in her.


"RE: Nov.26 East Coast Thread - No Spoilers "
Posted by lynkfri13 on 11-27-07 at 09:11 PM
I will second that. Let's petition to put Nicole and Dave up as a choice.;)

Huh! How do we vote? Or was that part not shown in Canada?

Text messaging to 72227(?)
A for Dave and Jasmine
B for Nicole and Sam

Sorry, I wasn't paying very close attention. I don't like either team well enough to pay $1 per vote.

On the one hand I hate the way America will decide this. Copping out to an American Idol format was not the way I wanted to see this end.

On the other hand, this means Sam and Nicole actually have a hope. If it was last years format where the prior contestants decided, they would have had no chance.

I think the show did a good job of making all 4 look good in the final episode. It could come down to which player has the most friends and family that want to vote for them. But I will be okay with either ending. I don't feel strong enough to vote for any of them.

"RE: Nov.26 East Coast Thread - No Spoilers "
Posted by whimsey on 11-28-07 at 12:25 PM
Agreed.
The public will vote for Sam over Jasmine, I think. Not sure of the demographic on this show, but it probably skews to females more than male. If anyone knows, correct me.

Why does everyone dislike Jasmine? For some reason, I find her to be adorable. She seems genuinely nice and caring, and open minded, which I think was essential for a show like this. Nicole is the one who bugs me. *shrug*

I've never disliked Jasmine. I always thought she was rather kooky and adorable. She has a more childlike quality than alot of the beauties do.

I don't dislike Jasmine, either. I'm really hoping that her and Dave win. I wasn't too sure of their partnership at the beginning, but they've both really grown on me the past couple of weeks. I was going to vote for them, but you have to register with the CW site and I didn't feel like doing that.

I also find Jasmine adorable and that she is basically a little girl in a woman's body. She is obviously very genuine, caring and sweet. Once Dave finally did a 180 and began working with Jasmine and got over his initial first-impression dislike of her, this team became one of my favorites.

I didn't vote, but I would have definitely voted for Dave & Jasmine for the win.

That said, as much of a tool Sam is, he really helped make the show this season. If it weren't for his antics and ridiculous over-the-top "metro man" personality, this season would have been a real snoozer.

If they are not going to do a separate show for girl geeks, then I think they should equally divide the teams with male/female geeks and beauties for next season, rather than just have one opposite couple. Either go all the way or don't do it at all.

Thoush I'd really just prefer the whole thing separate -- one show for girl geeks and one for guy geeks. I am a sap who actually looks forward to seeing if a beauty and a geek will fall for each other.

I have to agree with the half & half idea. Just having one girl geek and one male beauty(?) make some contests very uneven.

While Sam is so self centered he did not mind, Nichole did not bond well with either the girls or the guys. A few more girl geeks would have probably open her up sooner, plus I am sure a group of girl geeks would be more comfortable visiting the male geeks vs a single girl approaching a bunch of guys on her own.
