This song faded into more Seth Binzer buying/smoking crack nonsense. For some reason during this binge he bought two hamsters which he named Keith Richards and Rick James. I viewed this whole episode as him trying to get attention and since it is something we have seen before he gets my ant-Dickens treatment.
In another moment straight out of Dickens; Smith, Kitaen and Conaway sat on the porch and talked about drug addiction. Conaway proclaimed "God bless us all, everyone, I want some motherfucking surgery..". No he didn't. However, he did say that "..she (Amber) should come to my acting class..". The Japanese have a saying. They say "a man is whatever room he is in..". In other words, you are what you are. If you are a chocoholic TVGASM writer you're a chocoholic TVGASM writer. If you are a disabled guy in rehab you are a disabled guy in rehab....and so on. If you are a disabled guy in rehab you are NOT a teacher. You are especially not a teacher when mere hours ago you were telling Dr. Drew you never want to be a teacher.
Dr. Drew called another group session that was interrupted before it ever got started by Shifty climbing on the roof and making a ton of noise while smoking crack. This was a brief moment and another blatant attention grab so it gets the anti-Dickens treatment.
No Busey or Rodney this week. Why? Who knows.
I think I'll call this one "Jesus Take the Wheel".

Does TvGasm pay this guy? If so, it's money ill-spent.

Please please please get someone else to do these recaps.

I was a bit shocked when Amber was saying how she didn't see herself as beautiful and desirable. She is hands down one of the most beautiful women I have ever seen.

Man, I love coming to TV Gasm to read the recaps because I appreciate the intelligence of the writers, the humour, the sarcasm, the caustic observations, the bitchiness, etc...
Not all recaps are excellent and not all recappers are equal.
That is a good thing.
But, AngryWhateverMan, your writing comes off as poison - just plain mean spirited...I can be pretty cold and jaded but I have to say that this show is quite awesome this season, and well, I have been blown away by some aspects of it. Have a little heart, dude.
Anyway, I am aware that I am the loser reading the recap of the show that I just watched, but hey...

You know, I gotta hand it to you, TheAngriestWhitestMale - I have never seen a recapper with the ability to force people to read their writing, but as the comments show for your recaps, you obviously have a very mystical power, since the same idiots bitch about every recap yet continue to read them. Maybe it is the Vicks?

Yeah, people need to lay off TAWM. If you don't want to read his recap, there are a lot of others on the site. And if you think you can do a better job, go participate in Auditiongasm and prove it. Otherwise, stfu.

Yeah, what Snooty said. TAWM, I do not envy you yet admire your chutzpah for taking on this show. Hope you're feeling better and yes Vick's does liqueify all solid matter in the head and chest areas.

I love your recaps, TAWM. And I'm completely in support of the anti-Dickens treatment.
I like what you said about Jeff being written in as a character, Interesting theory. I tend to think he and Vikki/Nikki act for the cameras in an attempt to get more screen time and possibly their own reality show.
I do have to disagree with you on one thing. Just when I thought Jeff couldn't possibly get any more annoying, he pulled out a guitar and performed an original tune. AHHHH!!!! Please, no. Ear poison.
Also, why is Nikki McWhat's-her-name grinding her teeth is that weird horizontal way a la Steven Adler? Adler had a stroke, so it's understandable, but now Nikki? What's that about?

I think she is playing with her tongue piercing. I was wondering the same thing though.

"I just need a 40, a pet shop, and a slurpee, and I'm going in." has become my new favorite phrase of all time. Useful in so many situations!

Procrastinator and Scootch-
Grinding teeth and clenching jaws are a side effect of smoking crack.

Dear TAWM,
If you like Vicks, you may want to try the Vicks-laced Puffs. Best. Product. Ever. Even when you're not sick.

Can someone else do the recaps on this show? PPllleeaasseee.......

A fine recap.
It is fascinating to wrap my mind around how someone like Amber can not see herself as attractive or worthy.
BTW - I suspect you have one or more personal enemies who attack your writing because they lack the spine to attack you openly.
BTW2 - Of course God knows how the football games will turn out. He also knows how to keep a secret.
Have a Happy and a Merry!

Hi there again. Just want to write that I am not a part of a cabal of TheAngriestWhiteMale haters and that I have never criticized these recaps before this week, and I do seek them out and if I don't like them, I don't have to read them. It just seems that Celebrity Rehab has hit a new level with this season, in that it is difficult to not take it seriously and well, find oneself a bit, well, moved by some of the confessionals and struggles. Not to say that Jeff Conway is a real person made up entirely of Amber's supple ass. Ah, me try humour.
Anyway, just wanted to say that I am not writing to attack TAWM on a personal level - the writing is fine - it is just a compassion issue. Ya, that's it.
TAWM should definitely write the Double Shot of Love recaps. Ah, that would be awesome. And fun.
