Not to be sarcastic or anything, but if then would you like the explain the season finale of The Hills?

That ending scene sure did look staged.

I really can't because I don't watch it. I also do not know anyone affiliated with the show. But if you notice, I did mention that the Laguna Beach did have "suggested" conversations. I am not aware of who are/were the producers and/or show runners for the Hills. Tried watching it, but....too vapid.

"Suggested" conversations and "suggested" hanging out and "suggested" altercations are staging. I firmly believe that all reality shows have done that since the first few seasons of the Real World. LOL.

Ahhh I see. I was just curious cause I know there was a lot of "drama" about it.

I hadn't seen any of the previous episodes, but I did catch that last scene. Apparently they staged it to appear like they were on a regular street saying "goodbye" to each other, and when the camera panned out, you saw they were actually between warehouses, the car never drove away, and all the backdrops were moved.

But ehhh.

That was sooo stupid. LOL. I thought they were trying to be funny.

If anyone cares, Teresa and Joe's home furnishings are up for auction. There's a full list with pictures here

I don't think it's funny. I just think it's sad.

Wow.

Agree, I was looking at the list and it has things like their bedroom furniture on it. I can't imagine how difficult it is to be loosing everything.

This is not funny, but I can always tell there is a problem when you ALWAYS have to use cash for everything.

I told you there was an embarassed smile on Teresa's face when Danielle clowned and said her house was in foreclosure. There was something Teresa was pretty defensive about and it SHOWED!

joliebelle · #**328** 08-01-2010, 01:23 PM

I think that I would be more sympathetic if she and Joe lived within their means. Yes, it is sad that they're losing their belongs (even their mattress!), but what do you expect when you go on 2000.00 shopping sprees for your children?

MUSK81 · #**329** 08-01-2010, 03:06 PM

Wow - so are they just going to sleep on rollaway beds and cook in the fireplace? ITA about the paying with cash - that raised a red flag for me too. And I don't think I've spent $2000 on clothing for my kids over their entire lives!

PeppyGPhiB · #**330** 08-02-2010, 02:13 AM

Wow, so much of their stuff is ugly. And who the hell really has a suit of armor in their house? I think they were trying too hard to look rich...or they just have bad taste.
