Who do they think they are pitting it up against the season premiere of 24? AND a commercial free 24!

<--- can't wait 😀
 
I've seen it a few times...the blonde girl and the brunette are pretty hot on that show. Show is hilarious though.

If they're going to show it again tonight, i'll have to tivo it. Worknight 🙁

About 24, I thought the first half of Season 2 was excellent. After that, it got kind of unbelievable imo. Still liked it enough to buy season 2 on dvd 🙂

Zim Hosein has a thread somewhere with a recap of Seasons 1 and 2. Here it is.

A) They're putting it on twice in a row to allow for the conflict.
B) 24 is replayed every week on FX so it's not a big deal to miss it.

Joe Schmo has been a great show.
 
Finale tonight!

I watched most of the episodes and I felt really bad for the dude. It was just so horrible and yet so funny what they did to him. Even the cast at some point was having second thoughts.
I think he's going to go ape sh$t.
I know I would.

Does anyone know that does he at least get a cash prize or something?
Joe Millionaire got money and he was a putz. They should at least give this guy something.
 
Dang, I'll have to watch it later. The Avs are retiring Patrick Roy's Jersey tonight...and I think that's a bit more important 🙂.
 
i thought the ending was ace. Joe is a genuine tool and that's what makes him likeable. he cried through the whole revelation.
 
First he was crying because he got paid. Then he was crying because he realized what a tool he had been. Then he cried because he remembered he was a tool with a big check.
 
I recorded and just finished watching it. Pretty good episode although rather subdued.

I think it was pretty obvious that while he was crying from happiness and an overflow of emotion due to the MAJOR revelation that hit him, he had a different take in the interview they did later when he'd had a chance to step back and think about everything. It seemed like he was glad to have been on the show and have the experience, but that he was a little torn because he felt manipulated and betrayed by the actors whom he'd seen as real friends and companions. That was especially true for the actor who played his best friend. You could just see his face twitch and stiffen whenever the recap showed a scene involving his 'best friend Brian.' In fact, he flat out said at one point that he was still having to reconcile the differences between the REAL Brian and the CHARACTER Brian before their friendship could continue. I bet that last night they stayed in the mansion must've been VERY akward as it began to sink in for him. I bet that's why they didn't have any more candid footage of that last evening after the first 20 minutes or so that he found out what had happened. He probably went from being thrilled to feeling embarassed and betrayed pretty quickly once he started to meet the 'real' people.

Even though I thought it sounded lame at first, I enjoyed this show. It was funny and the fact that the girls were easy on the eyes made it all the more watchable.
 
It was interesting for me. They sure picked the right guy for the schmo, I could easily see the whole project backfire on them just by choosing the wrong guy. Could really see how Matt was hurt by Brian being a fake. I think he could have absorbed the shock from the other characters but Brian was just too much for him.. As a viewer I felt somewhat better that the actors weren't all about lies -- apparently Brian was truthful of his life experiences and Earl was really in the military; I read the guy's profile somewhere and he's really a military consultant for tv shows and such.
