This week some Idols repent for past sins, while others are reminded of the good they've done. Some Idols are forgiven for their past mistakes. But that's not all we have this week. Just throw in a big green shake from Eric, a little striptease and a concert. Its a wild, wild episode.
So move over Mamma Rose, it's time for TVannie to get this show out of the dressing room and onto the big stage we call TVGasm.
WHO HOOOOOO Get out your dollar bills ladies and gents and line up to tip the Idols in this week's episode "Ya Gotta Have a Gimmick".
We join our Idols lounging around the set/condo/launching pad, I'm never sure what to call this place, it's not exactly "Home Sweet Home". Anyway, back to the Idols. Jamie is playing his guitar. He says he is grateful for this time to practice and write new songs. When he is at home Jamie says he pulls out his guitar and it turns into a family sing-a-long. Jamie likes the family thing but it's nice to have time for himself.
In the kitchen Eric (Pee Head/The Big Pooh) is holding Jeremy hostage sorry I mean he is talking to Jeremy about going on a seven day raw food, anabolic fast. Eric says this mixture of raw foods and other scary green shake stuff will help Jeremy become supercharged with vitamins and energy. Jeremy says he knows he will never eat as healthy as Eric does, but he wants to do a fast to clean out the toxins and give him a fresh start.
Jeremy goes on to say he craves sugar, popsicles and ice cream and burgers. (I love those things too and would prefer all of that over a green health shake any day.)
Jeremy starts on his fast and says the green shakes aren't so bad if they're cold. Sorry bro, you are on your own this time, no green shakes for me. Not even a "Shamrock Shake" from McD's.
Jason arrives at the house, with news for the guys. I guess VH1 probably found out that Adrian is onto their "call sheet" scam and that he is alerting others that they should run whenever the fax machine starts spitting out paper.
Jason tells the Idols that while they achieved fame, they were not the only ones impacted by their fame. They had family members and friends whose lives were also impacted by their fame. He tells them that some of them will be visited by someone from their past and they will have the opportunity to find out how their fame impacted that person.
Adrian says "I hope they don't bring back my ex-wives." He was laughing when he said this, probably thinking VH1 couldn't be that mean. Yes, they could be that mean, but not this week.
Jeremy is hoping that he doesn't have to face "The Hoff". Jeremy sold a story to "The Enquirer" about how the Hoff gave him drugs when he was a little kid. Jeremy said he did it just for the money.
David says "you mean it wasn't true?". Jeremy admits it wasn't true, he was in rehab at the time and needed the money, so he could party when he got out.
This means that sometimes the stories in the Enquirer aren't true!! David is beginning to wonder if there are other magazines, tabloids and web sites that print lies and half-truths from unreliable sources
Suddenly, the familiar warning bells rings and that blasted machine begins spitting out a call sheet, like an AK47 shoots out bullets!! Adrian makes a run for it and makes it to the bunker in time to shut the door and brace himself from the call sheets explosion.
" Poor dumb bastards" he mutters. Adrian's skill as a Ninja-spy-undercover-guy is the result of running anytime William Shatner had a meltdown when either his girdle busted a seam or his toupee glue wouldn't stick while on the set of TJ Hooker. Adrian breathes a sigh of relief when he hears that this time the call sheet has Jeremy's name on it.

Dear Carol,
Nothing wrong with thinking Adrian's son is hot. He's a grown up so it's ok.
Thanks for commenting.
Happy Weekend.

Once again, great recap!=)
Does anyone notice the self-professed 'life coach' is close-minded,not good with dealing with people and refuses to take responsibility for his actions?
Sheesh
Also, I noticed he and his brother own a business together.
Either the they are no longer in business or something odd was going on.

Did I miss something? Why didn't Chris and David have a "person from their past"? Is Chris too normal and David too boring?

Dear Leenieva and Hoxharding:
Hoxharding: Interesting that Eric and his bro have a business together. I was really surprised they didn't get Eric's Mom to fly out for the meeting. I thought he was really close to her. Clearly Eric has issues, maybe that's why his Mom didn't appear.
Leenieva: You didn't miss a thing. I watched it 4 times and David and Chris didn't have anyone from their past show up. You're probably right that they are normal and boring if you compare them to other folks in show business.
But since this whole show is pretty much a sleepwalk, their meetings couldn't be that bad.
I wonder what will happen now that The big Pooh is gone. Someone will have to step up to the plate as the crazy roommate. It will be intersting to see who it is.
I predict Jeremy. He has this whole MySpace sex scandal thing going on.. I might write about that next week.
Thanks for your comments.
Love and Luck,
TVannie

Every time I see Jason I am just waiting for him to call someone a butthead like he always did on the Wonder Years...

Dear TVAnnie:
Eric/peehead is one confused dude, but I'm sorry he's gone. The whole sex-scandal tape sounds awesome : )
I would normally have no interest in these guys, but your recaps are making me care. Yikes!! But a great job : )
Hugs,
Yenta

Dear Wintersux, Yenta and Hox:
Wintersux: I hated Jason Hervey on the Wonder Years. Maybe they'll use the butt head thing if they have a reunion show.
Yenta, thank you so much for your kind words. I still think you are absolutely the best recapper. I can't bear to watch the Housewives anymore, but after reading your recaps, I watch at least a part of it. It's too bad you don't write for that show. Oh sorry, that's right, it's reality.
Hoxhoarding:there is a bit of a sex xcandal around Jeremy and his MySpace page. Apparently he does a lot of bragging about his exploits and he uses MySpace as a booty call place. I'll see if I can work that in next week.
Thanks for commenting everyone. Love and luck,
TVannie
