I purposly let a few days elapse before posting my final thoughts.I will begin with Paige, since she is the reason I watched FLOM in the first place. I was clicking along on my way to the BBC channel in order to listen to factual news, when my eyes were arrested by Paige. From that moment on, my 78 years old grandmother's heart wanted to know more about her. She has an 'old' soul and mind dressed in young envelope. Of all the ladies appearing on the screen, she and Alima were the only genuine articles the closest to reality. Alima was not given a chance to shine on her own, Paige was ignominiously trampled by both the media and the viewers, and lost a chance at happiness when rejected in favor of an individual who has as much personality as deflated balloon.
Rob Campos' biggest mistakes were first, to agree to appear on the show, and secondly to be totally inept at reading people's minds.
His basic intelligence is overshadowed by making wrong decisions and indulging a little too much in libations. He too, was badly portrayed by the network and wrongly treated by the media and the viewers. Nevertheless, he finally used his head when he decided to take the offer to reappear on FLOM #3. At least, he was able to be compensated for helping make the show popular.
Vic was also one who used his head. He got out when it was right for him to do so and for the right reasons.
Wade, I hope, realises how furtunate he is to be once again a free agent. He deserves far more better than an Erin Brodie.
If the latter does not watch out, she is going to look like an old prune before she reaches 40. She has the mentality of an aged Prom Queen and the mind of a scrooge. As well, she has no fashion sense and to those who claim her to be classy, compare her to a real class act, Grace Kelly.
All of us should feel sorry for Chad. Althoug I have the sneaky suspicion he ended up with exactly what he was vying for. A 'piece' of this and a 'piece' of that! For his sake, thank God they are not married as yet, there is time for him to escape from Ms Brodie's grasp. Unless she reforms, she is bad news for any man!
Please, feel free to disagree. All the best to each of you. EJH
