Am I the only one who watched this, or just the only one to admit watching this?

The host (and that was the worst effin’ hosting job I’ve ever seen – he’s reading off the cards in his hand and he still couldn’t get out a coherent sentence) neglected to make it clear what the deal was with the $1 million.

Did they need to get married at that moment, on the show to be eligible to get the money in a year? (BTW, it occurs to me as I type this, that it wouldn’t be a legal marriage anyway, because of the lack of a marriage license – I’m pretty sure the City of Los Angeles wouldn’t let Lisa apply for four and say, “well, I’ll pick the one I need later.”) Or will it be sufficient for them to get married within X amount of time?

And, while I’m throwing out questions into an uncaring abyss – do you think they’ll really get married? He’s really into her – I can’t tell if she’s really into him or not, despite naming him as her choice.

And damn I wish we’d gotten percentages on the final vote.

And isn’t she a ridiculously beautiful woman! Those eyes – could they possibly really be that color or does she have tinted lenses? (Yikes, I’m getting cynical in my dotage.)

Shit, I missed it, after watching the entire season too. Grr, is there any chance it will be reaired? Or is there any way to obtain a copy from CBS or something. It really blows to watch the entire series and miss the finale.

I watched it.

  1. Goddamn those sisters are the bitchiest bitches to ever live. Especially the one on the left. I want to smack her hard. The other one is bearable.

  2. Oh Lisa. Lisa. Beautiful Lisa. Please, oh please, when the nice Playboy people come around, say yes. Practice with me: “Yessssss”.

  3. Did anybody not think it would be Hank?

  4. Goddamn I hate her sisters.

  5. How did Arnold’s younger brother make it to the finals?

  6. Did I mention the sisters?

1, 4, 6:They’re not her sisters – they’re her best friends. The bitchy one is, I believe, like a workout buddy or something, the other is a (present or past) coworker. The one on the left needs to GET OVER HERSELF. Though – speaking of the incompetence of the host – why didn’t we get her answer when the rejected guy put the moves on her?

  1. Gotta love America – anything for a laugh. I’ve actually discussed this at length with one of my online reality junkie pals – my theory is that because people weren’t voting against, but were voting for, there was some skewing of the vote – the people who would have voted against him split their “for” votes, leaving room for those with a really, really twisted sense of drama to keep voting him in. (I was talking on the phone, with the show on, but muted, during the infamous panty-sniffing episode, which, in retrospect, I think is probably a good thing for my ability to sleep at night.)

Oops. Well, I guess friends isn’t too bad. At least they kissed Hank’s ass the whole time.

I never saw the panty episode, except for the clips from last night. The funniest part was when he put his hands in the bra cups and said Hmm, that’s about right. . ." :smiley:

Yes, I watched.

I do believe what Crappy Host was trying to say was that if they didn’t get married rightthenandthere, that they wouldn’t get the money. And they didn’t care!!

Here’s a quote from the www.cbs.com synopsis of last night’s finale:

(bolding mine)

So it does seem as though getting married on live TV was a prerequisite for the $1 million. Oh well!
