First, I would like to say thank you to those who post in east coast time without giving away major spoilers... If I'm lucky enough to watch on the night it airs, I'm guaranteed to be at least three hours behind.
On the episode- I actually liked the vampire thing. I think they could've taken it WAY cheesy and they didn't. Probably not my favorite photo shoot ever, but it didn't bother me. And considering one of the primary demographics, they were spot on considering all the Twihards out there.
I agree with you AlphaFrog- Jay kept fawning over most of the shoots, yet the photos didn't match up. Kind of makes you wonder if the photos just weren't translating after the shoot, or how they choose photos.
The challenge in Times Square was really cool- one shot, one take, live, no memorization... no crutches to fall on here. You either do it or you don't. Oh wait, unless you can't hear the instructions
yet don't ask for clarification. The challenges seem to be pretty good this season- sometimes they are way over the top but these seem a little more practical to modeling. Hopefully that continues.
I vote for getting rid of the drama queens- Alaysia is #1 (darn her decent photos) and Brenda is #2 in my book for being annoying. Anslee comes in at #3. Seriously... let's focus on the modeling and not crazy drama. We can watch the Real World for that (and I don't, for that reason).
