The shit has hit the fan, spread across the hotel, drained into the pipes, maneuvered its way to the depths of Hell, only to be regurgitated back onto FOX by Satan himself. I prepared myself mentally and emotionally for the return of Zach but the sight and thought of all of the losers returning to Paradise Hotel has made my head explode but I want to pick up the pieces just so I can watch more shit next week.
Why are they bringing back everybody (sadly, I recognized them all)? The answer is simple - because they (the producers) can. This show makes itself up as it goes along but that is why it is the best show that has ever been created.
Paradise Hotel defies definition. “Trainwreck” does not adequately describe the attraction that one feels when watching this show. But now that they are bringing the losers back, for whatever reason, it has turned into something different. The nightmarish level that this shit-fest has sunk to (risen to?) gives me a pleasure unlike anything I have ever experienced. Paradise Hotel is what the term “fucked-up shit fiasco” was created for and this genius move is the best example.
I am sure that those who have never seen this show, or even caught it mid-way through its run, will think I am mentally retarded for liking this shit but I urge that one soul in SDMB-land that has endured Paradise Hotel from the beginning to come out and join me in appreciating this latest “plot” development. You can’t look at this as another reality show or dating show or television show. True fans of Paradise Hotel know that you have to watch this show through special eyes to appreciate it rather than roll your eyes at it. Loyal viewers don’t cry about how unfair this development is; instead they salivate at the thought of She-Man Toni screaming “Yahtzee!!” again.
I already thought Paradise Hotel was the greatest show ever but they somehow found a way to make it even better. Why, God, why does this show have to end?
yeah, it has a trainwreck-like quality to it. The one time I actually liked it was when they got rid of Beau and he said, “You know, I’m actually glad about this. You’re all the most immature people I’ve ever met, and it’s nice to be rid of you once and for all.” And then he jumped in the air and clicked his heels on the way out!
But what I can’t understand is this: what, exactly, is the prize they’re all competing for? I don’t think it’s ever been mentioned, even though the concept of “winning” has…
Not only do we not know, I don’t even think that they know. They are being fucked with. They strategize and try their hardest but they don’t know what for. It doesn’t even matter. Two people got caught cheating, talked about it openly in front of everybody, bragged about it on camera and nothing happened. There are no rules, only madness.
Okay, okay. So I love this show too, but only because I can’t figure it out. I have to keep watching to see how in the heck someone is going to win this thing! It is the worst show, but totally addictive.
I gulp watched a few minutes of this show the other night, and I was really confused.
How can people cheat? How do they play? What are the rules? What is going on? Who is that guy with the big nose? What, besides getting laid, is the point of it all?
How can people cheat?
They were playing poker, the cheaters were stealing poker chips in front of the other poker players. Then the cheaters bragged about it to the camera.
How do they play?
The game is basically a ‘vote off’ thing. You are trying to stay at paradise hotel to win a ‘surprise’ prize. The opposite sex tends to have the power of vote off, but occasionally there are exciting twists.
What are the rules?
Well…there used to be rules, but they keep changing them. It used to be that each girl or guy would pick a girl or guy to room with. There would be an extra guy one week, an extra girl the next week, whoever didn’t have a roomy of the opposite sex pick them would be sent home…but they’ve been changing that. Last week they had the girls vote for a guy to pick off, before that the person with the most poker chips got to pick who would be kicked off.
Who is that guy with the big nose?
Dave is the guy with the big nose Go Dave! I love geeks No one thought he’d make it because he’s not a pretty boy like the rest of them, but he and Charla (also an underdog, she’s the pretty girl who doesn’t hang out with the rest of them) have formed an alliance with Tara and Keith which will hopefully help them make it through.
What, besides getting laid, is the point of it all?
To win the ultimate prize! You don’t need to know what the prize is to want to win it! Plus, for me, I’d just want to stay at an all inclusive resort…(but like Charla, if I were at Paradise Hotel, I’d probably be hiding in my room from the other guests)
Go Dave! I love geeks
