Ahahaha, he started off his joke with "The cool thing about terrorist bombings..." in a New York comedy club, what an idiot, he should have seen that one coming...

lol, WTF was he thinking? Terrorist bombing jokes in NY? And then he blamed the restaurant for not having enough time to prepare? what a jackass.

i was wondering, they said "season finale" is next week, does that mean that there will be another season? what will that be..."the normal days of a restaurant that has been open for a year"

Good episode today. Those two girls fighting over who is sexy is so hot.

I guess there is a season 2 for this show?

I think they are going to do 1-2 more shows next year since the premise of the show was to see if he makes it through his first year, and by the next time we see him it will be a year. ;)

the preview was like "and rocco unleashes the biggest surprise of all" or something like that

and all he did was take them to the beach!

and the only reason they weren't pissed at rocco, the management, and each other, was because they had been drinking for like 12 straight hours...including the bus ride up!

Did anyone see that girl and him making out in the bathroom?

I wonder how much they make in an hour.

Jason Giambi, it's weird to see him all business and shaved looking, unlike his wild and bearded look from A's days.

I read somewhere that the waiter staff was exclusively picked by the people making the show, not the restaurant staff. Basically they hired people that would make a good show, how good of a waiter you are had nothing to do with it. They might even be actors for all we know. That being said, I liked the first show I saw, missed last nights though.


Of course they did. Think how boring the show would be if they had real waitstaff working, making no mistakes. They gotta throw in some drama to keep you people watching.

Most of the money waiters and waitresses make is in tips. I doubt it is any different at Rocko's

I thought it was alright, compared to all the other Reality shows, i mean this actually is reality, someone opening a business.
