The sad part about me watching this movie has a couple of parts. One, the acting was horrendous. I wouldn't pay to go see these people on screen in a theater, or even rent from Hollywood Video. Two, the cinematography was weak and a little jumbled at best. The cameramen and director just didn't know what they wanted to shoot, because you would get a split-second's worth of something blowing up, or a chase scene, or several other common elements of an action movie. The last and saddest thing about me watching this movie, is that I COULDN'T STOP. I missed a couple other of my favorite shows for this thing, and I couldn't help it. I am so weak! The only redeeming part of this movie was that I love a good-looking bald man with classic style. Don't even get me started on Yul Brenner. Jeez, what is wrong with me? |

Is that like Average Joe? I wanted to rip my hair out because the guy was so ignorant. I watched 10 minutes of the first episode, and 6 of that was commercials. |
Joe Schmo, Season Two, however: different story. I miss TV. I have no TV right now. I won't for quite some time. I miss my TV. downloading shit all the time isn't quite the same. it's always more fun to watch things when it's a limited time offer. |
Kazu and I then recently caught an episode of season 2 and were instant fans. It's a great source of gayface. Bryce the stalker - how awesome. and the whole falcon thing is great. |
Bryce is so amazing, but the best line of the season came from Tim. When Piper and Austin were in a fight and went outside, Tim smirks to Amanda and in a hilarious and sarcastic voice, says "Soooo? Hows your steak?" |
In the first season, Matt was the star, such a nice guy. This season, it's all Bryce. That guy is a tremendous actor. |
|
plus, on the whole, I thought the actors in season one were Much more convincing. |
|
and season one had way more sleaze. There were like a dozen stripper games it seemed |
|
They take someone and put them on a cheesy, stereotypical, over-the-top stupid, reality show. But the show they think they're on is actually fake, and all the other contestants are actors. Most of the fake contestants are based on well established reality show star personalities. There's the gruff old veteran, the dumb chick, the "gotta be gay" guy, the arrogant surfer who refers to himself in the 3rd person, the bitchy black woman, etc. The first season's star was a guy named Matt, his setup was this "Lap of Luxury" show, like Survivor but in a mansion. He was probably the nicest and most genuine guy on earth, really a joy to watch. He played right along too. His reaction to finding out it was a setup (he screams "WHAT is going OOOON?!?") is the sound my computer makes when i turn it off. The second season's plot is a "Bachelor/Bachelorette" type show called "Last Chance For Love". Contestants compete to win the love a statuesque girl and guy. Still, all actors. This time there were two stars, Tim and Ingrid. But Ingrid figured it all out within 4 days! So they offered her a large sum of money to stay on as an actor, and they brought in a new girl named Amanda. Who is much more naive. It really is a good show. And it all ends on monday night. Me sad. |

I've missed the last two episodes. except I saw the last few minutes of the one where they got rid of Tim, and I was flabbergasted. so the next week I called Ron up at 9:30pm, a half hour before the show starts, and ask him to tape it for me. "No problem," says Ron. 10:45 Ron calls me back and says "I forgot to tape your show for you. I'll get the end, okay?" boooo. |
