Describing his room, Josh says: "With the way things are going in my life, I probably don't see myself procreating anytime soon, so I designed a kid's room." Of course, he could've used that same logic to design a masturbation suite. Unfortunately, part of his design included stapling a teddy bear to the wall, which made it look like a piece of mounted road kill. So much for the masturbation suite idea. Unless he's designing a room in Kentucky.
REDRUM!
At the final second, Wes decides he wants to make a statement that would "really stand out." Unfortunately, that statement is "I'm a psychotic ax murderer." He finger-painted "Time stands still when I'm not with you" around a broken clock. In blood-red paint. Hey Wes, if you really want to stand out, why not just start talking to your index finger? Joe says Wes "stabbed himself in the back" at the last minute. As opposed to shooting himself in the foot.
It's time for the judging. The girls go through each room, and have to rate them from best to worst. Everyone hates the writing on Wes' wall. Sarah tells us it was "definitely psycho." And she says if a guy took her back to his bedroom and it looked like that, she'd end the date right then. Although personally I think it'd be a little late at that point. Not that I'm speaking from experience or anything.
After the voting, the Geeks come back and take their partners to the room they decorated. Needless to say, Cher and Sarah are not happy with their partners' handiwork. Host Mike Richards says there's a tie for best room between SweatyJoe and DungeonMasterKarl. As SweatyJoe's Sweat Lodge received the most first-place votes, he wins the challenge. That means he and Britt get to pick one team to send to the Elimination Room.
"Get your sweat on at SweatyJoe's Sweat Lodge."
DMKarl is frustrated by the fact that he came so close to winning: "I feel like how Al Gore must have felt in 2000," he tells us. Yeah, DMK, it's just too bad the show used the popular vote and not the electoral college.
Now it's time for the Beauties' challenge. In each room is a sealed box with a computer in it. They must first open the box (which for these girls is trickier than it sounds), put the computer together, hook it up to the Internet, download a song, burn it on to a CD, then play the CD. If they get stuck, they can ask their Geek two "yes" or "no" questions. The first one to play her song on the boombox wins.

Wonderful recap, I love the RedRum reference, hilarious!
I loved Thais and Tyson, how sad that they're gone. Is being able to put a computer together seriously a geeky thing? I mean come on, you just have to match things up!

The host's eyes totally freak me out, as if he is always suprised about something. Prob. that he actually has employment.

Funny, funny recap! That picture of sweaty Joe is freaking nasty. *Oh and it was Tristin that said the line that beautiful men could be brought in while the Geeks are out.
I'm sad that Tyson is out, I didn't care much for his partner Thais. Tyson and his Rubik's cubes will be missed...

One more thing, that picture of the host IS very reminiscent of Clinton Kelly from What Not To Wear... The haircut... the blazer... the layers and the shirt. Wow. Damn, good call, copygodd!

I'd be surprised if Josh ever gets the balls to tell off Cher. And if he does, I'll be screaming at the top of my lungs and jumping up and down on MY bed.

As bad as the new host is, he is like a cool breeze on a hot day compared to Brian McFadden from last year.
I will miss Tyson and his cube!

I agree with scorpiella--at least this semi-lame-o host-type doesn't think he's famous or something.
Also, I used to like Tristin, but now I kind of feel like she and Chris deserve each other.
Dear Josh: Please tell Cher to stuff a sock in it already. I know this will result unpleasant personal consequences for you at first, but trust me--your fellow castmembers and the home viewing audience will be thankful. Sincerely, Dr. Grissom
(P.S. Please also remind her to wear underwear while rolling around in front of the camera. 'Cause she kinda freaks me out)

Copygodd, I too LURV that nextel commercial, it makes me laugh every single time.
I'm trying to figure out who Josh sounds like, is it Woody Allen?

Last weeks recap, wasn't really a recap . This week you complain that you don't get that channel well. Should someone who actually has cable, or at least rabbit ears, who does not live on a mountaintop review the show from now on? Just a suggestion.

thanks for the comments, all. and yes, pamsey, it is woody allen. too bad the producers didn't cast a young korean girl, or the sparks would really be flying.
in my defense, usnrnpage, had the owners of adelphia (my cable company) been more concerned with updating their technology than with raping the company and using it as their personal piggybank, i might get a better WB signal.
but that would leave me with one less thing to bitch about. and really, where's the fun in that? ;-)
REDRUM!

That Nextel ad is my favorite commercial on air right now. Love it.

I was hoping you included a screen cap of Tyson and Thais hugging - total boob grab!
The factoid next to Tyson's name should have flashed up as "Tyson, 21: Has felt up one girl."

I realize at this late date responding on here will likely go unread - however, I feel compelled.
I only just now got to watch this ep (I work for a CPA firm and it's Busy Season - that's my only excuse). Copygodd - I love you recaps of this show and always read them. Keep up the good work.
As for that Nextel commercial - I can never watch it just once - I always end up rewinding it and watching it 2 or 3 times. I am starting to have a crush on the dark haired guy -the way he dances just ... I dunno -totally gets me purrin.
