This show confuses me. Some days I choose to believe that the sheriff and friends are really looking for intel. Then I remind myself that all they really need to do is watch the dang videos and they will see all that we see. It's usually at that moment that the light bulb shines a little brighter and reminds me it is for our entertainment. The "in"mates (outmates? fakemates? ) aren't really helping anyone but themselves.
And yet I watch it. Every. week.

I kind of get Monalisa's attitude towards the system. The truth is that everybody is not treated equally under the law. If you are the "wrong" color or nationality, you'll be treated differently, that's a fact. Sometimes law enforcement, and juries perceive people who look a certain way, differently, even if they did the same crime.
I don't disagree with how things are sadly. But as far as Monalisa, my impression was that it was more towards authority as a general rule. Look at how she reacted to Quintin when she found out he was a cop - it was the same look sudden contempt.

I'm so IN! I really liked the first 2 episodes. It looks like they learned a lot from the first season and made some improvements. They are bringing them in 2 at a time, other officers know about the program, and it seems like they got more training. Especially with going over and fine tuning their cover story.
Monalisa was the one who really stood out to me as being the train wreck to watch. I would almost bet that her attitude towards authority existed long before her daughter was arrested. It may have even influenced her daughter's decision making. After all, she was only robbing for drug money...not because she's a bad person. <insert ginormous eye roll>
Robert 2.0 actually showed a lot of self awareness with his emotional intelligence comment. I can't remember exactly how he worded it, but he knows that he doesn't pick up on social cues. That's a step in the right direction for sure.
Former CO - I'm worried about her. She just doesn't seem cut out for this at all. It is so hard to picture her working as a CO. I wonder how long she actually did the job and what her role was. She seemed very overwhelmed by the craziness of intake, so I suspect she may have been in a more cushy job??? I don't know but her actions don't match her experience.

I turned it off after 5 minutes when I realized all they were doing was rehashing everything we had seen already. Silly me, i thought maybe it was going to be Tami admitting that she wasnt a cop all those years, but nope it started off as "I was a cop for 21 years" Blech.
I did the same thing. I couldn't listen to more of the same crap.

I feel so badly for the girls...the males they have to choose from are absolutely terrible. Gio definitely seems like he could be dangerous. Narcissism and self delusion on that level rarely amount to anything good.
I'm pretty confused now, because I thought a lot of the locked-in pairs on this episode seemed like they could be right. Are they not allowed pens and paper in that house? It seems like mathematically you could figure out who to match up based on the information they have so far. And it seems like it would be more fair to give them a chance to think it through instead of "follow their hearts", because so few of these people are having any real connections with each other. If by week six you don't have more people pairing off just based on feelings and nothing else, then the chemistry just isn't there.
It took 6 weeks for Emma to show that there is a fun side to her personality? Ouch.
I was wondering about the pens and paper too. On a previous season they used the red cups to figure it out. It's like a giant logic puzzle. I think the reason they added the black out rule the past seasons is so that they can't pair up strategically to eliminate matches. Getting a blackout now means a loss of money, but it helps tremendously in narrowing down the matches.

I need someone to diagnose Robert for me please. He is just such a bizarre person. What's with him? He is clearly acting delusional, but is he in on his own act? Or is that really him? Inquiring minds want to know.

I always find it so jarring to see people in makeup after we've seen them beautiful and bare-faced for so long. Same thing happens on the Survivor reunion.
Next week looks really good. This week - meh. I enjoyed Zac's interview and Tami's interview. They seemed to take them a bit more seriously and treat them with more respect than they did with the other participants. Hopefully they'll beef up their training so the co's can be more effective at their job.

The whole moody artist vibe who talks in circles without really saying anything....was a bit much. I absolutely loved the death card. That was so amazing.

I hated it too. I wasn't cohesive at all - it was so all over the place. I watched it about an hour ago and I can't remember why the guy killed the family, or even if we saw him earlier in the episode. And I love the cage, but really people? Electric shock? So disappointed.

For me, this way by far the best episode. Their faces when Barbra had her list were priceless. I loved her for that.
Who else was it that suggested they offer the inmates classes or something to do with themselves during the day? Was that Barbra's mom? Anyway, the Sheriff's blew her off, so I suspect they'll do the same about Barbra's suggestions. Although I'm sure the med guy is going to be talked to.
I so wanted Zac to find that cell phone, but oh the irony when it buzzed in front of the guard. I hope the guard is okay. It's seems a bit irresponsible to have just one guard go in at night looking for the phone. I'm assuming that's what the guard was there for, but maybe I misunderstood.
I really want to see Zac and Isaiah find out they were both in the program. Same with Yaz with Tami & Barbra.

This was such a great episode. I loved the humanness of it. It seemed they were all just being themselves and put aside a lot of the bravado and posturing. I loved the story Jessie told about his creature - such a creative mind. But I'm glad that Anthony won and hope that he wins it all.
So when they were in their teams of 3 and the judges said Christian...Jessie, James, did anyone else want the judges to say, "Team Rocket blast off at the speed of light! Surrender now or prepare to fight!"

Has anyone taken a gander at Sam's 2016 collection? (Yes, he has one.) Talk about your one way monkey!
Oh my. It reminds me of the scene in European Vacation where Clark is driving and can't get out of the roundabout. "Look kids, Big Ben. Parliament. Look kids, Big Ben. Parliament."

Good thing Barbra didn't "flip out" on Yaz like she was feeling too. Maryam surely would have gone upside Barbra's head and blown her cover. Maryam would have laid a Hella right cross combination and given herself up. The other ladies would have known immediately anyone who punches like that must be kin to Muhammad Ali.
I don't know what to feel about Isaiah. If we're still pretending that this project was to weed out corruption what would have made Isaiah a good candidate as a spy? He is tragically meek and easily led. Isaiah is the one you give your package to on the corner when the cops are coming. He's the one you get to take the fall when you're in the wagon on the way to the precinct. He's not built for this. Has he even spoken to anyone but Treshawn? If he's not w Treshawn, he's just sleeping. He's a recent high school grad, maybe signing on to this reality show was a way to get his motheroff his back about going to school or getting a job.
Leaving with Jeff would have been his best moves. They should have quiet cubicle jobs together.
This. This is what stood out to me the most this episode and it made me so mad. Isaiah is not the kind of kid who can hold his own. WHY is he a good candidate for this program? He's not. That's why I am convinced that this show is totally fake. If they were serious about gathering intel, they would have selected people who would actually do a good job. Isaiah, dress shoes, and Robert are horrible choices to meet their "goal" of getting insider info. Ugh, ugh, ugh.
But of course....I'll keep watching.

Every time I think of Nina as a guest judge, I am reminded of Dmitry's awesome quote, "You know who doesn't like Nina? People who suck." That gives me endless joy.
More Dmitry please.

I really enjoyed Julia's video. I feel like we got to know her so much more as a person. She's very well spoken and introspective for such a young age. I have to say, I had a smidgen of second hand embarrassment for the guys fawning over her. She was definitely their main topic of discussion. I'm sure she brightened up the place. Wish Debbie had shared her thoughts on Julia. I'm sure Debbie is a past high school guidance counselor or maybe she taught sorority girls to juggle....something relevant. I'm just sure of it and wanted to hear all about it.

I kind of enjoyed the departure (see what I did there...) from the usual story line, but do have to agree that it was a shark jumping episode.
Max surprised me at how quickly he got on board. I was all "yeah Max isn't falling for it!" and then he fell for it. I think Courtney is a fake, I think she has some ulterior motive, and I think she knew Frankie from his past. Maybe he was the one who got away, and this is her twisted way of being in his life? I don't know, but something is so off with her. She's too nice, too syrupy, and too out of the blue.
Was she the only one who called him Frankie or did everyone call him that?

As far as this show being scripted, if seems almost impossible to script since the inmates are so real. But I can't get past that one scene where the guy with the glasses who befriended Robert gets hit while he is eating. He doesn't have his glasses on when he is "attacked" so it makes me think it was either reenacted, or staged completely with an actor "inmate". Or maybe a combination of the two.

I have watched every single episode of Project Runway that was ever made, and I didn't recognize half the people on that clip. I might or might not be getting old.

S02.E12: Blood, Debt And Tears
in 60 Days In
I must have completely missed it. When did Monalisa find out that Ashleigh and Sheri were also in the program?
