On the nerd front, she is an active member of the forensic speech and debate community.

    @popephilly, I think the best way to differentiate between the Joshes is simply JF and JA. Or Gay Josh and Straight Josh. That’s how I think of them in my head, at least.

    I still don’t understand how Madison is on this show; every time he’s on the screen, he lacks the charisma and persona to do anything of merit. I honestly don’t know how he sells any property, but I’ve noticed over the past few seasons, his clients have mainly all been his hags. I get that he’s an attractive guy, but my goodness, there’s really nothing there.

    I love JF. But Grandma Edith is awesome! I can’t remember if she was even in this episode, but I love that woman. And, she’s the only one who can cut through JF”s weirdness to get to the qualities that make him such a great agent, as we’ve seen time and time again.

    JA is your typical douchebag, not much to say about him. For someone so arrogant, he’s the least memorable IMHO.

    Yay! Welcome to the Million Dollar Listing fam, Popephilly!! I loved the house on crack that was featured this week – even thought the owner reminded me of Dr. Brown from Back to the Future! Grandma Edith was not on this week but it looks like she may show up next week – j’adore her!! Have fun!

    Is it just me or do all these guys seem like young punks? When searching channels I somehow get sucked into watching and then hate myself afterwards.
    thanks for the recap….but I have to ask you: Is the detergent vinegar infused or do you add the vinegar yourself….if so, what’re the proportions?

    Ah, another guilty pleasure. Got sucked into million dollar listings in NY, and here I am following the left coast.

    Is it just me, or is half the fun trying to imagine being able to buy a house for 2+ million or rent for a rock bottom cheap $30,000 a month? The mortage on our first house was a tad more than that.

    Ah wealth.

    Princess is purrrfectly adorbs.

    @Derek: Thanks for the suggestions. I’ll probably stick with the JA and JF one – for no other reason than it’s faster to type than “Gay Josh” and “Straight Josh.” Ha!

    @S-Natch: I didn’t see the Doc Brown resemblance until you mentioned it. Now I can’t unsee it! Thanks! :)

    @cherrylipgloss: The detergent is already vinegar infused. It was a great find since the vet told me that vinegar repels fleas. I’m pretty sure Dawn makes it. It worked well on dishes too!

    Also @S-Natch: Let’s pull some money together and rent the $30,000/month house. That this was AWESOME! And her highness, queen of my apartment, Lindsey, says thank you! :)

    People from VT are nuts and berries types of people who tend to get high a lot…I think that might be why why SKIER Dudette..thinks the house reminds her of VT..she most likely “thinks” that while living in VT she had palm trees growing in the yard..or that the wood in the house comes from trees and trees come from VT!
    Onto not gay (“I thinks” he could be) Josh and Heather..made for each other..ugly through and through..two winny brats..
    BTW..how in the world do they hook up with those noses?! I can’t understand how they could closer than a foot to each other…YUCK!!
    As for cute “gay” Josh..I am impressed with his antique/art knowledge..gotta love him ..and hotter than hot Madison..he doesn’t need to say a word..he should make extra money for appearing on the show..talk about eye candy..WOW..can’t wait to see next weeks..

    I agree with every one when they say get Gramother Flagg on..she is awsome!!! Why can’t they get rid of winny spoiled brat Heather and “not gay” ( me thinks he is) Josh and bring in more of the Flag family..the true break out stars ~especially Edith~ of this show…

    Oops! My second comment should have been for showshoecat. I am suffering from selective illiteracy today, I guess.

    Can’t WAIT to see Grandma Flagg either!!! :)

    I looove Grandma Edith. On a previous season, she talked about writing a book about her life. I would love to read it if she did. JF is my favorite on this show. I didn’t think the producers could find anyone more annoying or douchey than Chad, but then they replaced him with JA. And I yelled at the TV when JA was on his cell, “GET OFF YOUR DAMN PHONE!”, which I usually end up yelling at least once or twice during rush hour. It is very illegal in California and a first offense carries a $300 fine, I think.

    Thanks for a great recap!

    P-Philly, it is indeed an honor for me to be confused with the incomparable S-Natch.

    I liked your recap but hated this show! I looooved the New York version but had never seen LA…maybe I’ll just read your recaps instead!

    I loved how Heather was ready for her close-up in full makeup when the alarm went off at Josh’s place at 6 am.

    @snowshoe – *blush* Thanks for making my day!! :)
    @popephilly – I was breaking into my piggy bank before I got to your correction. Now I am crying big salty tears. Oh well, I guess Fredrik will have to console me.
    @monica – exactly why I did not recap this one – I don’t like these guys, either. Glad, though, that they got Popephilly to do it, though!

    @S-Natch: I’m glad I got your blessing to recap this show! :) We can just invite anyone who reads this along to get that house. We’ll call it Casa de Gasmii!

    P-Philly Oooooooohhhh I’m in! Casa de Gasmi would be amazing. We’d have to have more tvs than a sports bar, not to mention a traveling bar for those drinking games.

    The only drawback would be the inevitable kibbitzing on ‘cap writing.

    Josh Flagg being super knowledgeable about his client’s art is a little ironic, no?

    Haven’t seen this show in a few season. Catching it on re-runs today.

    I must say, the turn around in JF love is surprising. Everyone hated him 1st season (the only one I ever saw) I always thought he was a very good agent for his age, but a bit immature in the 1st season.

    Gotta agree with Derek. HOW is Madison still on this show? He doesn’t have the connections of JF, the sliminess of JA. He never sells anything, he’s too nice, and when he does sell his commission (for CA), is very low. And he always had this terribly sad face with the clients.

    PS: saw the finale of last season as well. I feel JF was entirely in the right calling Madison about her experience, if he was a prospective employer. Unless she said ‘no’ and it was for a valid reason (low pay is not a valid reason, sexual harrasment would be).

    I never watched this but I got hooked on NY so decided to give it a try….and it’s horrible! i’m sure I’ll still watch but I miss Freddie already. Somehow I don’t see any of these guys breaking out into an endearing Swedish song!

    JA = Michael
    Madison = Ryan
    JF = Freddie

    Do I have that right?

    LOL Katie ..love your super ironic comment about Josh’s super (duper) knowledge regarding his clients art…skipping over that alleged/dropped banter from season 1 (and a little bit after)..I do feel that it was all a big misunderstanding..especially since he comes from the background he does, his grandmother knows all about art .(.as most wealthy Europeans do)..and she taught him..he is very Grandmothers’ boy ..so appealing..and he comes from so much money that I think he would never stoop to anything low…I guess you would call me a Fagg Family Fan…
    PS
    I hope that he and Fredrick team up this season..a match made in Heaven!…I saw Josh with the Beetle haircut on Open House NYC lately and he is still as horrid as ever..very stiff behind the camera..don’t know why they ever cast him…total hot mess and I do not mean hot in a good way!
