Glass House Internet Coverage: 5 Hours of Torture!

I feel like I’ve been locked into that awful room in that movie, A Clockwork Orange. It was torture, pure torture! I watched the The Glass House on ABC, at 10pm on the east coast. I have to say this, none of what they aired was what we viewed on-line last week. We were asked many of the questions that did get answered, including Alex’s question about becoming the biggest asshole in the history of reality TV. That idiot is so out of his league, it was pathetic to watch. Other than that, the two mediums did NOT connect in any way, so what was the point?

For example, I watched the streams Wednesday & Thursday and they split into teams to play games quite a few times. They picked captains for these games and there was a different captain each time. If there is any consistency to this show, wouldn’t Jacob and Jeffrey be captains for the whole week? Every game they played, they picked different teams, such as, girls vs boys. These were always determined by viewers votes. Again, what is the point? I feel like it has become viewer participation OVERLOAD, especially after last night. Let me tell you about last night…..

Everyone is in the kitchen decorating cakes. There is frosting everywhere. It’s Ashley’s birthday and the contestants are making four different cakes to celebrate. Viewers get to vote on which one is the most beautiful. Look how hard it’s going to be to judge.

The cameraman has found Holly’s boobs and zeroed in on them. The “bikini” scenes during the show, was never seen on-line. In fact, they dress quite conservatively during the feeds.

The cake decorating takes up almost an hour and a half. During this time, the “voice” has us, “the viewers”, make choices for things for them to do. First choice, (now you have to say this in the voice’s voice) “Viewers will now vote whether they want to know what you were doing 5 years ago OR what you will be doing in 5 years? You will have their answer in a few moments.” She comes back and says, “Viewers want to know….  ( the suspense is unbearable)…. ‘What were you doing 5 years ago?”

Jeffrey was living in Harlem 5 years ago with a lazy bitch for a roommate, who wouldn’t even clean up after herself. She was the start of a long line of horrible roommates to come. But now he’s got a great boyfriend and is in a great place. Hearts & Doves! Viewers vote and think his story is “really good” from other choices of “not bad” and “lame”. Kevin, the cop, says he was exactly the same, but his daughter was only 10 then and he was a cop in Toledo, Ohio. He got a ‘really good’ too. Andrea, the Mormon, said she was knocked up with kid #3 and that was about it, apologizing to viewers. They gave her a “LAME” vote!

Hollywood had just move from Florida to Chicago and hooked up with his cousin. He did nothing but “party my face off cuz that’s what you do!” He got a ‘really good’. I think there should have been a ‘BULLSHIT’ choice. That brings me to Irish Mike. Remember him, the bunny killer? After hearing his story about where he was 5 years ago, I’m SURE he’s full of shit. It was a long, drawn out tale that’s not worth repeating. I just know now that he’s a wise-ass.

Poor, nerdy Stephanie, praying to God that someone will find anything she says interesting, tells a tale of romance. Her and her fiance take classes over the summer, during their vacation, while planning a fall wedding. Then he will transfer to Germany for his new job. He gets news that he must leave for Germany much sooner, so they have to change all of their plans and get married sooner. It became her “perfect summer”. The viewers ‘really liked” it, so she was relieved.

    I feel for you Chooch, I really do. This show sounds so fucking lame, just a ripoff of the Big Brother format with just enough lame twists to make Big Brother sound like Masterpiece Theater. The whole “America gets to choose” angle is just plain stupid.

    For a good laugh, that asshat Alex’s intro/bio video is on youtube. What a douchebag. No. He’s the fluid that comes out after the douche. What’s that stuff called? It’s not santorum, but surely it has a name – palin?

    Oh, and I love Ethopian food. Especially because everyone eats with their hands. Hmm….come to think of it, I haven’t made any Ethopian food for a while now… mmmm…..

    You deserve a medal. A BIG ASS MEDAL. I missed the show, I think my DemonVR just refused to tape it. It makes those last couple of days in BB look down right ENJOYABLE. You know, when there’s only like 3 people left and they give them finger paints? I’d rather watch THAT any day!
    But I love you!!!

    I agree. Too much ‘audience participation.’ I understanding voting on the players in ‘limbo’, but voting on which cake you like best? Lame.

    @itchy: LOL @ “the fluid after douche.” I say, Alex is the fluid before the douche. Spooge. Just waiting to get flushed out.

    Know what I love about this show? Having Cooch recap and the awesome comments that follow! It makes me anxious for the Big Brother coverage on TVGasm (and the forums, of course)! Hope we get the forums in time cause BB won’t be the same without them…

    Chooch, what a sacrifice. Tell Flipit you deserve a raise for spending all that time watching this…this…this.

    Irish Mike hit a brain button. He reminded me of somebody, and that bothered me until I realized that he reminds me of the grandfather/douche on RPDR this past season. His name was Mike and he seems to be a fame whore, having been on another “reality” show. Can’t remember the name of the epi since we can no longer access old recaps (ahem, Flip). Does anybody recognize him?

    @SSC, it’s sadly not the same Mike. RPDR Mike was fatter and his face was better looking. They are similar though….couple of attention heauxs.

    This show just makes me all the more ready for BB.

    Alex looks like he should be lunching in a country club somewhere, not douching up my tv. He can go. Like someone said in the minicap…he’s not a villian! He’s just irritating and mean.

    I did watch yesterdays webcast – they spelled words and discussed “stay at home dads”.
    Luckily I didn’t have a razor blade or I would have cut myself.
    I hate Alex but now I am hoping he does come back just so I am not tempted to watch it again.

    No, Colton strategized and made alliances of teammates. Alex has no alliances in that house nor will he make any. He also lacks an immunity idol, lol.

    No one in the house seems to want Alex back, that’s for sure. His only friend was Jacob. From what I’ve read on-line, no one is voting him back into the house either.

    Can I say this…. I’m just SO happy to see all of my Big Brother friends posting. It’s been so long since we’ve been together. I feel like we’re having a BB reunion. The media is going to be allowed into the new BB14 house on Friday (June 22nd) so they can “play the game” for a day. This means right after that, there will be a flood of pictures and info of what the new decor looks like. I will get this info to you as fast as I can.

    Thanks, Chooch!! I’m looking forward to it. And if the forums aren’t up, we’ll still come out and hang on the main site. We’ll just keep the feed spoilers out of the first two sentences of our posts (as that appears on the front page) but we shouldn’t let it deter us. Who knows? it may even attract a bigger party of people who never thought to check the forums for cool happenings. All-in-all, I’m looking forward to BB even though watching/reading the feeds always makes me peckish. It’s something about watching people crunch, munch, and whisper that makes me grab the snacks! Weird, i know.. *hangs head*

    Hmm… who wants to bet CBS opened up their wallet for a few last-minute upgrades to the BB house?

    @itchy, did you see CBS’ passive aggressive press release? They said they are developing a new show called Dancing ON the Stars as well as a new sitcom called Postmodern Family. Lol! They are bitter… No need, BB has the proven fan base, why feel threatened? ABC doesn’t have the Chenbot!
