Thank you. That makes sense. I presume the reason they don't use the music that originally aired is because they only bought the rights for a temporary time period that has expired. It makes sense they might use in-house music specifically for the show in reruns so they never have to pay for or worry about the rights to it again. That said, they did a better job on some seasons than others -- there are some real clinkers sometimes!

I'm a much more casual watcher than many of you, so I'm hopeful someone can answer a question concerning music. I'm watching reruns on Pluto and I realize the music they use on the soundtrack is not the same as what was used in the original seasons. On one of the most recent seasons - I'm sorry I can't say exactly which one, but I think it is when Christina finally makes the team - they play a song with lyrics that sounds like a female singer saying something like "If you wanted to change the world, that's what Jesus did, that's what Jesus did...." I've had no luck finding that song based on a lyrics search. Any idea?

We refer to the ones that look like Myrla's as "chesticles." And it cracks me up that my autocorrect keeps trying to call her Mylar.

Just like the couples brushing their teeth together to create the illusion of intimacy where there isn't any. So sick of seeing that over and over!

I was so wishing Gil would give her the same sour attitude back she always displays. "Are these vegan cookies? Gluten-free? What is the calorie count? They seem stale -- when were they baked?"

I guess I've watched too many cooking competition shows, but I was just sure when they took a bite of the obnoxious looking items they would turn out to be pastries or some other "food impostors." No such luck.

Yep. I rolled my eyes when the 2 staff members asked for help, saying they'd looked everywhere. Except for the accessory closet, that is, where one would reasonably expect it to be.

No kidding. I'm thinking between the hurricane that destroyed these place and the shoddy workmanship by the flippers fixing them up, no lender would finance them because of a lack of availability of hazard insurance. If you had to pay cash based on the appraised values, even if you negotiated the price down, would you spend it on one of these places?

We call it the junkie shuffle...you can see them coming when you arrive or depart our office and pretty much predict the ones who will try to hit you up for money or cigarettes based on the shuffle. Especially when they also wedge their hands in the front pockets of their skinny pants.

I'd say DeAnna Pappas back in the early days. Wasn't she the one who threw a pool party for the guys and when she showed up, not a single one of them stopped what they were doing and greeted her?

I'm thinking Grace (and whatever Sam's kid's name is) come home for the finale, and even though she's a Merriwick, Grace somehow saves the day.

I think downtown NYC dwellers can't even imagine how us common folk (even the wealthiest) manage to exist in the hinterlands outside of Manhattan. I was watching a rerun of one of those landscape makeover shows and the hosts -- used to staging downtown NYC terraces -- kept exclaiming how their "upstate" project was the first one they'd ever done with a yard having actual dirt, saving them from having to buy any. Another designer couple who has lost touch in my opinion are Nate and Jeremiah. On the last Rock the Block show, their design choices were made for magazine photos, not livability for anyone with growing children who doesn't have full time cleaning and nanny staff. I've also seen an increase in buyers who seem terrified of yards and trees on House Hunters. I guess desirable "outdoor space" no longer includes an actual yard?

Not that it will ever be an issue in my lifetime, but there is zero possibility I would enter any financial transaction with him based on his immature behavior.

I got suspicious of her early on, but didn't settle on her for good until the clue about the retainer. She was the most obvious candidate based on the appearance of her teeth. Then as Angeleyes said, she talked too much toward the end and her vocabulary and bossiness gave her away.

I kept hoping one of the guys would step up and ask Katie to turn her dildo over in return. And I wish Justin had said, "I appreciate that you want to play dress up, but marriage is significant for me and I don't wish to participate in a fake ceremony. I'll see you at the rose ceremony instead."

Not to mention her totally dodging any announcement that she was letting Blake into the house before just sending him over there to tell them himself.

Hunter reminds me of a very unsexy Zach Roloff. When Katie's chipmunk cheeks and his mug come together for a kiss, I have to use the mental bleach. There's sex positive, and then there's just plain indiscriminate.

Can you turn your powers toward killing off the Cheetohs "it wasn't me" commercial with Ashton K, Shaggy and what's her name?

Believe it or not, there was a time when the Noid was a big fad. One year at Halloween we trick-or-treated at a house that was giving out Domino's coupons with little Noid plushies. and we thought it was awesome.

What put me on to her was that at the beginning she said she worked at a gym, and then there were clues along the way that said the Hustler owned a sauna bed, was an industrial vegan, and had modeled for before and after photos. If she had said a different occupation at the start, I might not have locked on to her early enough. I suspected the other woman for about the first half of the game.

I've generally found on this franchise that when what's primarily shown is drama between the men or women in the house, it's because they had a hard time getting any footage of the lead being remotely interesting to watch.

The worst written recipe I ever encountered was waaaay back in the 1970's when I was newly married and trying to impress my new husband. It was a dessert with canned cherries from a recipe that came on the underside of the label of the can. Buried more than halfway down the recipe was this little instruction: blind bake crust the day prior to using. I was so new to cooking that I hadn't read the whole recipe through first, just the list of ingredients so I could shop for them. Lesson learned!

Seriously, at this point I would just tell Matt to send the stuff to my lawyer and if I decided to sign it, I'd do it in there. Absolutely NO reason for them to meet in person other than TLC wanting to film their burning hatred for one another. By now Amy should have watched herself last season and realized how pathetic she comes off clinging to the past.

It reminded me of a costume I had to wear during a summer waitressing job on the Alaska Railroad where we portrayed Klondike Gold Rush Girls while serving tourists.

I don't know if it would be accurate historically (although the show often isn't), but I keep thinking it's the railroad coming through and dividing up the town, complete with reopening the coal mine and revisiting the trauma of the mine collapse or explosion or whatever the disaster was early in the series.
