  1. Ohhhhg...I loved For Love or Money...Erin is still biggest prize winner in reality tv I think. Two million $ it was a neat twist and reality gold with many scandals haha I loved the resorts they filmed at also
  2. Carly and Evan...eww. He must be the least attractive guy ever on these shows...beady little eyes and so obsessed with Chad I thought Carly was ok but fugly on Bach but I couldnt stand her on BIP2...she was so SMUG.. .so sure of herself..."the couples".. So dismissive of the uncoupled women....so sure of her "relationship" with Kirk she didnt even comb her hair. i enjoyed her dumping Then she didnt seem to think much of Evan BIP3.. He liked Amanda ..no chance.. But they settled....as I said "Lowered Expectations" dating service MADtv...Thanks for correvting me haha. Carly was ready to settle for a plastic blow up doll if it meant attention and instagram fame and a place in Bachelor Nation haha
  3. Yay! Now...I hope they get rid of Corrine and any others who blatantly have a sig other back home Yes the show has evolved into a fame game BUT at the very least the cast should be single and at least somewhat looking for love I still feel that this was set in motion cause Corrine and her producer buddy wanted to clean up her rep.. Due to bf and possible future star role Selfish fake jerk...exhibitionist games with 4 hunks on the first day. I hope DeMario comes back and is redeemed. This was so unfair to him
  4. wow Corrines BF really looks like Nick ! If these shows continue they need to stop with the "drama plants" and stop allowing cast members with sig others. I said from the start that I feel Corrine was drunk and out of control and having FUN.. Showing off. Partying with 4 hunks in one day... I think her producer buddy freaked cause it likely meant she would lise her upcoming show.. Corinne flipped cause of her bf and family and loss of show... The reports from Jasmine and some other cast members seems to indicate this Please no Carly show... That pair remind me of old 90s SNL skits.. "Lowered Expectations" Matchmaking service haha
  5. Hmmm....and others just explain that Jezebels are former professional women that the commanders enjoy the humiliation of it Actually in a brutal place like Gilead I think Moiria would have been sent to the colonies or hung after she attacked an aunt and escaped. I also think problem people ...addicts...criminals....mentally ill...disabled would be killed...some more cruelly than others. As a new...and shaky....regime it is nit beluevable to me that they would not be more proactive
  6. They also sterilized mentally ill and disabled people in this country. A real good analogy to Gilead is Ireland in the 20s 30s 40s. ..like Gilead a "new" country...and dirt poor. They made Church and State one...and brutalized many women. Check the film "Magdaline Laundries"..."fallen" women...unmarried mothers...rape victims.. Sometimes just headstrong girls were kept by the nuns ....their babies were given to Irish American couples ...many in Boston..for generous "donations". Some got out but many spent their wholenlives there...wearing uniforms . living like the handmaids.. The nuns were like the aunts...older ladies in the laundry were like Marthas...and in the past few years they have found hundreds bodies buried under convents. It is a true story film...excellent but horrible and tragic.Sadly real
  7. What bothered me about this series is that the more it went on the more it relied on incredible superwoman feats and luck and more and more illogical bits In a dystopian or fantasy one should not have to rely on spin and maybes and explanations etc. I think in the closed in 1st person nature of the book it was more believable The writers MIGHT have addressed it ...the Mexico officials visit they could have had the Gilead fanatics point out that they had stomped out racism Like one consession they were proud of. I think they had many writers and directors and producers so sometimes the view changed. The episode about Luke escape felt like it was a different show. My opinion.
  8. My major problems are...Moria...luck luck luck...she never had a kid so ehy a handmaid? Please dont say "she never had sex with a man so they think she maybe fertile"...why wasnt she sent to colonies or hung like the other gender traitors? Why was she not killed or sent to tje colonies after her auntie escape?
  9. Read on DM that the day after C and M were ok with each other...producers cut off all alcohol to Corrine and she was UNHAPPY at that. Then they were both mysteriously taken away...the next day all shut down..party over. I do feel bad for DiMario. Maybe his fake bad girl gf will cheer him up?
  10. Sorry Janine. The problem for me is that every objection I and others make regarding illogical choices are answered but with convoluted reasoning. For me a good dystopia or fantasy world shouldn't need fan fiction explanations...the writers and producers should fill in the gaps. Why wouldnt addicts be Jezabels ? Drugs booze and cigarettes.Please dont say cause fertile.. Cause Moiria was fertile. Why were formerly high powered women given the "choice" to be Jezebels? It is up to the writers to create a logical world and create stories without so much obvious belief suspending luck. Now if they still have lotteries in Canada Moria should buy a ticket with the money they gave her. Lucky
  11. The acting was very powerful but my logical side cant get over all the coincidences. Just me maybe...I can get into a drama or futuristic movie or mini series but when it becomes seasons my questions start. The claustrophobic feel of the first episodes were more believable and more like the book. The Moiria storyline is where they lost me. After her escape wearing aunt uniform and capture I think they would have maimed her and kept her for "breeding"...or more likely sent her to colonies or killed her. I cant believe they made her a Jezebel. I also find it hard to think she made yet another escape. .and got to Ontario from Boston? Coincidincyyyyyy? I think Jasmine's stoning was well acted but poorly written.. The ex drug addict wasnt in "class" with Jasmine and didnt know her. In fact that character has bothered me anyhow...my.logical mind says how did they "cure" her addiction? I wonder what season 2 will be...much Mayday ? It would be interesting to see a teal wifey or two banished to the "colonies"...SJ preferably haha.
  12. James Connolly...Irish Rebellion leader....mortally wounded...April 24 1916...kept alive till May 12 1916...carried into the Kilmainham Jail courtyard on a stretcher...tied to a chair too week to stand bleeding and shot by firing squad. This event strengthed the Irish cause and was condemned by most other countries Everything in the book happened somewhere sometime atwood said. I shudder to think of the sequel since more rotten things have happened since she wrote it
  13. Ugh to Lexie and BGC...thanks for vid. This show has gotten so fake I watched every season...often fast forward especially last few shows The early shows were well to do guys...a good catch...the early season shows had more real women...yes some models and wanna bes but more real. Afterwards a few used the show for self promo but nothing like the internet instagram insanity today Many of the guys are models...trainers...wanna be musicians. Or like Nick just want fame Makes me think more and more that Corinne is just going for money since her so called career is ruined. DiMario was over the top and Lexie seemed like a fake ugly lil troll. Sigh. Oh for days of Trista and Andrew Firestone. Rachael is bringing class back but who knows what other set ups they have in store for her?
  14. I also think drunken Corinne and drunken DiMario went too far and the cameras rolled...bad. BUT I think her friend Shelby alerted her. ..and because of her boyfriend at home started the complaint..suit whatever This forced the company to shut it down...and then the 2 producers and maybe Corrine had 2nd thoughts but too late...no more show...no future Corinne own show...no more Bach nation....and BF KNOWS So now she is playing hardball..sue sue sue. Depending on whats on the tape...outcome is still up in the air
  15. I read that Jorge had quit working at resort and moved ...probably to a nicer place The producers had lured him back...I hope he still gets paid and isnt in trouble
