  1. I was at a taping last year at this stage of competition at this location. I got to see only 5 acts and we were like, thats it?? They filmed the into, a few takes (with Nick), they pretape all our reactions, the 5 acts perform and we're shuffled out. The judges take a break and then then the next 5 perform but thats it for one day. They must then have to wear the same outfits the next day to make it look like its all filmed at once. TV taping is weird.
  2. Really?? Bello Nock the clown?? He's the famous Ringling bros clown!!! He's out of a job so he goes and "tries out" out for this amateur competition show?? Wth?? Edited to add: Ok, went and did research. He was with Ringling Bros. In the early 2000's which is when my i took my son. Thats why i remember him. The circus even named their entire tour one year after him: Bellonation!!!!! He was The star of the show!! Since then, he's been rather busy doing stunts, featured on morning shows. Why is he competing on THIS show????
  3. Its funny you mention the audiences reactions. Ive been to a few tapings of AGT and they pretape ALL reactions before the show!!!! A producer comes out, and will say, "Pretend you just saw something so funny!!" or "Now, act shocked, then laugh, clap and stand up!" And there are cameras swirling all over the audience filming these reactions that they'll splice in later. You're doing this while looking at an empty stage!! Its all manufactured, but actually fun.
  4. Omg, me too. I was Social Service major in college and took a Child Abuse and Neglect class and we talked about this subject in length. Since then it has always fascinated me and boggled my mind. Even in the movie, The Sixth Sense, remember?? I shouted out, Munchausen by Proxie!!!!
  5. Seriously. Driving in the car and shoving pepperoni pizza into her mouth. Who does that with their kids?? Snacks, yes.... crackers, pretzels to tied you over until you get real food. Not a full greasy meal IN the car, driving. Gross.
  6. Ok....Jessa puking in the toilet. Then that smile at the end when she buzzes Adam up?? Could SHE be pregnant too?????? Gah!!!
  7. I'm so happy people are feeling the love for "the baseball guy" David. Or as us diehard Cub fans call him Grandpa Rossi. That winning Cubs team is a young team and they all looked up to David who had been to the World Series before. It has been said, that during the the 7th game of the World Series, game tied, in the 10th inning and a much needed rain delay...... in the locker room it was David who gave an inspiring speech to the Cubs who went back out there to win the championship!! All of Chicago love him and it's great to see him shining on this show!! He's a great guy!!!
  8. "It's a building that turns into robot. What's fun about that?? Can't be, like, a bug???" "You don't just walk into a meeting and say, "Bug."
  9. I'm sure everyone's gonna get tired of hearing from us "bookworms" claiming "the book is better! The book is better!" cuz, we'll, it usually is. I'll give this a chance though. All of Liane Moriarty's books are set in Australia, as this book was and it was kindergarten, not 1st grade. Don't know why they made that small detail change. The book was pretty spot on about the different types of moms at schools. We'll see how this show plays that out. If your a parent you know those types and what type you fall into!!
  10. Yes! Takes me back to his comedy movies like "Twins". He's very comedic, like his jabs with Jon Lovitz!
  11. Oh, I like it!!! The visuals are stunning. There are times the light is shining bright on him in his white suit and then when he was standing next to Sister Mary in the big meeting room it was like they were in the shadows. And I truly believe his confessional at the end is true. Something very sinister with this Pope and Sister Mary!!
  12. How about her appearance on Saved By The Bell as Zachs girlfriend??? She was practically born into scientology. It seems once you begin with them it all seems well and good. By the time you figure out what nut jobs this "religion" is you've" already invested too much of yourself and your money to leave. It's rather scarey. I adore Leah.
  13. Ok...I'm college educated, consider myself a rather sharp tool in the box, I watch the Profit pretty regularly but if I was told to "go do research" I'd probably hit up the Internet first, too! I'm not a marketing major and either is Adelo. I feel like Marcus was rather harsh in critiquing him. The guy makes tortillas. Marcus saw how he ran his business....did he really think Adelo was gonna have a strategic marketing strategy with charts and graphs and visit 50 stores and ask all the right questions?? Marcus kept saying he was very clear with his instructions but unless more was said off camera , I don't think so. I felt bad for Adelo. I think he was trying very hard and doing the best he could but doesn't have a head for business. And Marcus exploited that for his show.
  14. A pseudo seizure?? I looked it up. It's a fancy word for panic attack. From a pageant!!! I don't understand these parents who say it's all or nothing. If they don't get the grand ultimate super nacho supreme then it was all for nothing! Money blown, waste of time, it's rigged. And no fun at all. There's only one top prize! The odds of winning that ONE title is slim to none! So what if you get a different title. Doesn't make your kid any less beautiful. Gahanna! These parents slay me!!
  15. Kaye, not Faye. Yes, I stand corrected. Faye didn't sound right. It was Kaye! What a stick in the mud.
  16. Well, the Imogene Coca episode. Of course, she didn't play herself. And of course they spent most of the show slamming her looks. So...yeah. I guess Alice was it for role models. And Faye. "Come on, dance with us!!" "That was Alice. I'm Faye."
  17. That's funny!!!!!!! I think it would be more entertaining!!!!
  18. What. An ass! That owner!! "What if I call you a 'mistake'??" What the what?? I wanted to kick his stupid head with that stupid hair cut. The kid is only 23....he doesn't know anything about business but acted more adult than his "dad". I knew guys like that dad in high school. Screws all the girls, gets one pregnant and runs away like nothing happened. I wouldn't call him dad, either. He pissed me off to no end. After thisshow was Marcus's tea business is gonna go through the roof. The other dudes?? Yeah, good luck with that.
  19. As soon as mom started sniffing and tears started to come, I muted the tv. Why do they think we want to hear it???? "And then, and then my baby was born with two heads..." yawn. And I can see using the shoe lights when I walk my dog at night. I tried the lights that go around the collar but my dog hated it and it was a pain putting it and taking it off. I may try the shoe lights if I see them in stores.
  20. Those bloody dangling things were pig tails? Are you all sure?? I thought they were parts of the intestine chopped up!! But pig tails makes more sense! Either way.....ew.
  21. This makes a lot of sense. Or he just filed for bankruptcy. I doubt TLC would allow a registered sex offender on the show. I just can't with Nicole! She acts 12! "I don't eat zucchini or vegetables and stuff." Why not?? Know who else doesn't?? A 2 year old toddler. Seriously , why wouldn't you eat veggies. Sure there are some you might not like but ALL vegetables? If their sautéed in garlic and butter?? Who won't eat that?? Ugh. She's disgusting. I love it.
  22. This show bugs. I agree about just seeing the art of the tattoos and skip over all the hatred for each other. And....I LOATHE when the camera continually cuts away to reactions of the contestants who either look like a) shocked and awed or b) shaking their head "no" I'm complete disagreement when someone gets praised. It's either a great tattoo or it isn't. Would it be so terrible to agree and say, "Yeah, they did do a decent job." You rarely, if at all, hear any encouragement or praise from one contestant to another. Why not?? Why all the hate and disgust?? Does the show think that's what makes "good tv?" It's doesn't. Makes me forward through those parts so I just watch the actual tattooing and the judging.
  23. Nope. The deals all have contingencies and back out options. Marcus loses the physical stuff that was spent....usually on the renovations. This happened a few years ago with the toy company (they hated the NASCAR association). Marcus spent tons of money on 3D printers and office equipment. I *think* he took some of it back or left it and took the loss. But if he backs out, all his money he offered up to wipe out debts and pay off vendors goes with him. That being said, I loved this episode. I wanna know who wrote into the show for help?? The owner was resistant the entire way. And his wife??? Creeping up everywhere! Marcus, "Why the hell are you here?? Again??" It's was all so awkward. I love soup but that place, those soups, that icky thick bread just looked gross. I LOVED the pretzel idea. Otherwise get fresh crusty bread to dip. Wonder how their doing now.
