Okay, Procrastinators, here's the first thing I hate about this week's episode of Age of Love: the 2 and a half minutes of recapping the previous episodes. I get it! No one's watching this! Maybe we can wrangle 'em in for the last 5 episodes! Or at least the one we're showing right now! Whoa-ooh-whoa-oooh-whoa-oooh-whoa--- who's got the look? Not you, Executive Producer JD Roth!
JD Roth: Doesn't got the look.
So we start with The Poo and Kelly Ripa's Husband convening in the bachelor pad. They've set up a date for The Poo and three of the women of his choice to go surfing. He picks Cro-Megan, Game On Maria, and Crazy Mary. He calls the women's suite. He tries to make the well-known Friends joke, saying "How you doin'?" in a goomba way, but Cro-Megan doesn't hear it. He says it again. She still doesn't catch it, so he pretends he didn't say it, and invites the three women to meet him downstairs wearing their bathing suits. As they get ready, Grimacing Amanda crushes their heads in her mind and then whines. She admits that she has more feelings for The Poo than anybody else does. Really? No one's noticed. You've got such a poker face.
Hmmm. How ya feelin?
The chosen ones meet The Poo at the car which has wooden side panels. The Poo keeps yelling, "Take a ride in my WOODY!" No one misses the joke this time. The girls laugh because he is so clever and funny. They arrive at the beach and The Poo teaches them how to surf on land first. Honestly, I was impressed they got it so fast.
They paddle out. The women swallow salt water and get hit on the head by their boards. Cro-Megan adds a side bump to her already Paleolithic head, but continues to try. We all know The Poo values playing with an injury.
Back at the women's suite, Grimacing Amanda cleans the whole kitchen, reads a book and a magazine, then makes herself a cup of tea. She notes Jenn and Jayanna aren't talking to her, but they whisper a lot. In fact, Jenn and Jayanna whisper a lot about her. They pretend to be concerned about Amanda's "unbalanced" feelings and hope she can get a "grasp on reality." Then they laugh that she doesn't know they both french-kissed The Poo. What is this? Seventh grade? How old are you two? (Actually, really, really, old. Sorry. Continue being desperate hags.)
My bad. Carry on, Skeksie.
Our happy foursome have a picnic on the beach. The Poo gets Maria and Mary engaged in flying a kite so he can take Cro-Megan for a walk. She seems okay, but she did keep pulling against the leash. Crazy Mary whines to her mom, I mean Maria, about not being asked for a private walk and not doing well in the competition. Maria buys some weed off a vagrant Rastafarian and smokes out Crazy Mary. When they are good and high, Maria tells CM to be her beautiful self and that she's enough. The Poo's repeated compliment about Cro-Megan is that she's "full of life," which translates to me that at 21, she's still hopeful that her dreams might come true. Even with that much hair growing down the center of her face. Stay Gold, Cro-Megan.
Crazy Mary, in an unusual display of poor judgement, joins them on their walk. Watching her go, Medicine Woman Maria says she knows what the game is, but at her age she doesn't chase. Maria, the line is so fine between being on a reality dating show and not chasing after men, that frankly, I'm going to say it's not there.

Again...great recap Ting Lee! This week I have no idea who to root for. I think Jenn has lost my vote. Even though Megan is very young, she seems pretty normal. A crush seems to make sense. To fall in love like Amanda so quickly...seems off.

I live for these recaps, seriously. Cro-Megan is probably one of the funniest things I've ever heard. It is scary that Crazy Mary works in the healthcare industry...These women are all completely disgusting, but entertaining. I suppose that means that MY moral compass points to no man's land. I'm fine with that.

Yes, these women are all a little crazy. But don't you have to be to expect to find love on a show like this? Seriously, I don't think any of them care half as much about Mark as they do about being the last woman standing and what that means for their self esteem.
Having said all that... I can't wait to see what happens next week! This show is so entertaining!

Is it me, or is Amanda going to boil the Poo's bunny at some point? Scary!

Ting Lee, outstanding recap. But there are probably 11 people watching the show, the ratings are off because my girlfriend and I watch together. :) In any event, I agree that the women are more interesting in winning than in Poo. But personally, I think all the younger women "hate" Jenn because she's like a million years old and has the best body in the house. I mean look at Crazy Mary and Jenn, who would you rather have or want to look like? I also agree I can't wait to see what happens next, this is so much better than the bacholer, Poo spends a lot of time with girls, they think they're safe and BAM see you at the exit interview. I just hope they let it run to the end of the taping, I smell some major cat fighting coming.
Keep up the great recaps.
