the "Replacements"

Um, one question...

are they purposely bringing in people who aren't as attractive as those already there? I mean, the people on Paradise Hotel aren't exactly "Temptation Island" material, but the members of the studio audience they are sending down there are not even "Price is Right" material!!

not to be mean, it's just that, I wonder if this is like the producers' strategy or something

Zack needs to be punted off the show now. The guy is an idiot.

My question is, what mechanism is in place to make the show actually end? Or does it just continue on for the rest of eternity??
Or maybe till all the "originals" are gone? (Hmmmmmm.)

LOL @ Price is Right material. That was good. I think that these reality shows are popular because there is much more randomness involved and people like that. To take it one step further, the producers are trying to involve the audience and viewers by letting them get on. They can't just say OK only the pretty people can watch our show and compete...they have to open it up.

Now, Kavita looked booty. While she's fugly, I think she got kicked off because she didn't add any character to the show. She was fake from the beginning with her hugs and her talk about being a player. Dave's got a bird nose and is nice but you can tell he's adding something to the show by saying random things when he drinks that cause people to fight. The new musician is gay as hell but he's supposed to hook up with some girls and bring something to the show.

I preferred the musician to Mini Me.

Ok, I taped Monday's episode and I haven't had a chance to watch it yet.

I'm not really rooting for anyone on this show. Charla is so fake, Zack is an idiot, Amy is dumb for not realizing it, Toni is way too smothering, cries too much, and all in everyone's business, Dave is a dork, etc...

Hopefully they will bring someone interesting to this damn show!!!

I believe Beau was wearing the Pi Kappa Alpha letters, and he is cute-- but I think Alex is the hottest one. The 2 girls from the audience who will be competing to be the next guest are both prettier than the current girls on the show, so it should mix things up.

OK I was sitting there today a little bored. There wasn't that much going on. I think I'm only entertained when Dave does things. When he annoys people it's pretty fun to watch. The new gay singer is kinda weird in my book. I just realized who Amanda reminds me of...the girl from Seventh Heaven.

I think Scott is a really cool guy though and has a really solid character. Everyone else kinda sucks.

--I'd probably pork Amanda and be mean to her on the show if I was her ex.

Yeah, I was watching it last night with my roommates [even though this show is totally and completely morally wrong... but I still watch because my roommates watch it and I dont have my own tv... but anyway I digress...]

Yeah... Beau is so cute!! I was like.. oooh he's a Pike [my best friend is a Pike here]. I think it's funny that now since Amanda's ex-boyfriend is here [did you notice how she said, 'I love you'] now Alex and Beau are best friends again, and were like... "yeah if he comes and tries to say something, we're gonna tell him EVERYTHING". I was like... "yeah, you go boys!!"

Man I hate this show

*bump*

Is anyone still watching? I have... everyone who had been kicked off came back in the last 2 episodes. The way those people were acting was disgusting. They were so incredibly mean and vindictive! I couldn't believe how Kristen was like we haven't done anything wrong, we haven't screamed at anyone or done anything. The guys can vote a girl who was kicked off back and the girls can vote a guy who was kicked off. I don't know who they'll pick... I could see Charla and Tara picking Matt just because he's not an original and he's been nice to them, but Desiree, Amy, and Holly would probably pick someone else, maybe Beau (at least Amy would, since Zack can't be chosen since he threatened Keith). The guys would pick... no clue, all the girls who were voted off are scary and suck, Amanda's okay.

I'm still being sucked in...uh...watching. Been reading the Television w/o Pity threads and what they are saying is dang hilarious. I hope they see through Andon's BS next week & do not select him...I think Holly may be going over to the "Barbie" side after the way Scott was acting...I foresee Matt & Amanda or Kavita being asked back.... Desiree is a vaccuous fool & Amy.Is.A.Complete.Beeyatch.

I love Keith having the last line last night (re. Zack not being eligible to return) "I feel like I kicked him off again." 'Nuff said.

seriously, check out the TWoP thread-those people are insane.

I still watch it and I was so disgusted with the behavior and actions of the returning guests! I hate how Amy thinks she's such hot s*it because her "friends" are back. Is she forgetting that they're leaving and she'll be left alone with only Desiree on her side? Desiree is a moron! I'm interested to hear what Tom's opinion on everyone is. I think Holly will be swayed over to Dave's side too. I'm excited to see what will happen next week and happy that Toni will be gone!!!!

I don't like Holly, she needs to get a brain of her own. She seemed lost since Scott was paying all that attention to Melanie.

Y'know i looked all over the main parts of Twop and i could not find paradise hotel. Is it going by a different name or something? Or is it not that big of a show so they don't feature it? Can someone give me a link or something. Thanks.

Oh... hooked on the show. Still. Man I thought Zach was a hottie but what a f***er. Amy... yeah I liked her too before she started throwing her own "im the only original left" pity party. Charla... yeah she may be "real" to everyone else, but on TV she seems whiny, spoiled, and is pulling the whole damsel in distress thing (Save me Keith cuz Dave doesn't cut it...)

Tom's monkey should win the whole thing... I agree with Kristen on that one.
