Well, I finally got to watch last Sunday's episode so I guess I will start the convo on it.Wow, there was definately a lot of tempers flaring or should I say tentra tamprens? After all that's what Tawny called it. I can now see why this lady had to make a career based on her looks because she can't talk!
First Alexis was upset because Tawny put him on drums and asked if she could wear his wig. Alexis didn't want to be on drums but wanted to lead sing and she felt it was rude for Tawny to ask to wear something that is a part of her, like she wasn't validating who she is. But after Alexis threw the drums around and tore some stuff up and ran outside to rant to Maven (who seems to be doing Flo's job alot more than Flo) Tawny caved in and gave Alexis the lead singer role and Alexis allowed her to wear his wig as leverage. So, I guess the symbolizim of the wig was not that important after all?
Then after having to tell Tawny about a million times that there was no need to get someone to play the keyboard, because there was no keyboard in the song, Steve short circuted on Tawny (can't say I blame him).
Seriously, Tawny really knows how to crawl under a person's skin. She runs around acting like she's great and can do no wrong and she ends up having no clue as to what is going on or needs to be done. I think Tawny needs to learn that spreading her legs on a car, being married to a rocker, and listening to the radio all day does not qualify her as a "music girl".
Of course the ever so lovely Flo (note sarcasm when I type this) happens to roll on in after all the drama is concluded. Alexis has her way and Steve apologizes so there is nothing left for Flo to do besides announce the Surreal Life Band and give judging looks to Andrea. Honestly, when is this lady going to do her job. From what was shown on next week's show she apparently gets the cast together, shows them clips of themselves, and tells them what she thinks is wrong with them. This is basically the job of Sally Jesse Rapheal so what sets Flo apart from a talk show host? Why hasn't she pulled people aside and talked to them one on one in a comfortable and non-judging setting, isn't that the true way of a therapist? And if Flo goes harder on Andrea than crazy Tawny, well that just goes to show she has more than a few marbles missing in her head as well.
So, if there was an award to be given it would have to go to Maven. He is the one who is there for those in the house. Letting them get whatever they need off their chest without making them feel like crap about it.
