4. "RE: Charm School 2 - VH1 10/12"
I've got a number of early problems with this series, but they all break down to this core issue:

For the original series, we had a couple of people who went on the show not just for the prize money, but for the opportunity to change themselves. As Ginger pointed out, Saaphyri recognized this as potentially being the one-and-only chance she'd ever have to pull herself up, and Leilene wasn't far behind her. There were people there for camera exposure, cash, and chances at revenge (I'm glaring at you, Larissa) -- but there were also those who were honestly trying to better themselves and their lives. Two of them wound up as the F2: best-case scenario right there. Decent series, satisfying conclusion, turn out the lights.

And in this group? We have the classic Season #2 Syndrome on full display: everyone is here for the camera exposure, revenge, and extra media time. I can't spot a single person who's actually in line with the series' line of thought: change yourself, rise above the idiocy that got you tossed from your original show, be complete. No, every last one of these people is here for the $100,000, and those who need change the most are the ones least likely to. The one who needed help the most (and arguably our Saaphyri-intended for the season, as she also never made it to her original ouster) was Courtney, and she went out first, hopefully towards a different kind of help -- leaving behind Lacey, who's just there to see how many people she can get thrown off the show without having herself tossed at the same time.

Sharon may wind up shooting someone before the end of the series. It just might be herself.

If I had to make an early guess, Heather could be the winner. Inna's our Goldie: no reason to be here.
