Clipgasm: Rosie blesses hick couple, upstages Amazing Race

Industry

It’s the television appearance of the day that’s gotten the most talk but fewer views because most of us don’t get to watch The View (only because we’re at work, right?). So here’s a look at the cleaned-up and coiffed Amazing Race losers, Kentucky coalminer Dave Conley and his lovin’ wife Mary, as they hit the sympathy jackpot in their second tear-wringing appearance in forty-nine hours. There’s a bit of interesting trivia on display that diehards might already know: Dave originally tried out for Survivor and the Race producers had wanted him to team up with a second coalminer (that way the title under their names could read simply “Coalminers”). But what we we find most viewable is the sight of little Lizzie Hasselbeck, dwarfed by her co-host, peeking around the cartoonishly rotund Rosie O’Donnell like Boo Boo with Yogi or Gilligan hiding behind the Skipper.

    if 6months ago someone would have told me that rosie odonnell would win back my heart by giving two hick kentucky coleminers from the amazing race a new house on the view i wouldve called them a liar and a whore… and i would’ve been wrong…

    Mary looked more excited about the confetti than anything else…

    I adore Mary and she is quite possibly the most genuinely nice person ever on reality television and I hope to see more people like her on the Amazing Race and other shows. She deserves everything she gets and I totally teared up again since watching the that last show.

    Never thought I would almost cry watching a clip from the view. I hate myself-BUT I love Dave and Mary!

    That’s the American way Steve! If a C student can be President, why can’t two hicks from the sticks get free stuff? It’s better than being stuck in Iraq- isn’t it?

    Loved that KFC asked if the Cho Brothers could come with them on the cruise (but not the Mommy Bitches).

    So, Rosie…you couldn’t have thrown in a set of veneers?
