Date My Ex: Decision Drunk Dial

"How many copies do you think my album will sell?"

Tonight on Date My Ex... we have arrived! We have reached the end of this ludicrous journey and have only one more hour until we know all! It's been a long week of nail biting, pacing, foot tapping, and tears, but at last it's Monday night on Bravo. Here we are, eagerly awaiting Jo's final Big Decision. What filler will we have to endure before we can finally put an end to this?

Date My Ex: A Classic Bro-Mance

Slade%20declares.jpg

"At last. The grand culmination of our charade."

I feel it only fair to warn you that tonight's episode of Date My Ex takes about 30 seconds worth of information and stretches it into an entire hour of sub-par programming. I kid you not. It is my pleasure to bring to you a retelling of this programming, along with my own thoughts on the matter, so read on if you dare. See you on the flipside!

Date My Ex: Sexy Spa Time... Or Is It?

"Welcome to my sexy vat of crap!"

Welcome, one and all, to another episode of Date My Ex. To those of you out there with the amazing stamina it must take to keep tuning in to read about Jo De La Rosa as if she were the least bit important, I thank you heartily. As insulting as this show is, I love writing the recaps and seeing what you all have to say about it. It amuses me to no end. Join me please, as we continue our thrilling saga.

Date My Ex: Not in My Water Feature!

"Slade has two swimming pools?"

So this week a family member of mine set the DVR to record the Olympics EVERY TIME it was on. This of course, means that the Olympics were recording for at least 12 hours every day and the DVR started eliminating everything else that was recorded, most alarmingly, Date My Ex. I know you've all been biting your nails to the nub waiting to read about how Jo is proceeding so the minute the rerun came on - which is right now - I got right to the recap. With apologies for Olympic tardiness, I present to you episode five.

Date My Ex: A Shot at Love with Vodka Vlad

"My old folks home, my rules!"

We are back this evening with Round Four of the dreaded Date My Ex. Blonde Bangs takes us through another painful recap going all the way back to when the girls cooked up this whole silly scheme in the first place. We continue through to Jo inviting Zack to go on a second date with her last week. Then without further ado we jump in head first and meet this week's three new guys.

Date My Ex: How CUTE!

Narcissism Celebrated

So apparently not enough people have complained to Bravo yet about how horrible this show is, so here we go with another episode of Date My Ex. After a quick look back at last week's nightmare, we join Jo and her bimbette friends once again at Toast. Brunette Friend wants to know what Jo's type is. Well let's see. Rich, pretentious, annoying, obnoxious... wears stupid caps, does that cover it? Jo says that she likes guys who are affectionate. Not affectionate like tongue down your throat in public affectionate, but like guys who hold your hand. Wow, aim high Jo. You've clearly given this a lot of extra special thought. Jo tells us this is turning out to be way more fun than she ever expected, so bring on the three new cute boys. Roger that, Jo. Will do. We're all here for you and your glorious experience.

Date My Ex: Stop the Lies!

"We're totally over each other."

So here we are, back for another excruciating episode of Date My Ex. We have to first backtrack and watch Jo pretend to be shocked again that Slade has the gall to participate in this ordeal she's going through - as if they didn't come up with this together. So after reliving last week's horror, we join Jo and Brunette Friend doing charity work at a homeless shelter. Yeah right! They're shopping in Beverly Hills. Jo answers her phone to Slade calling her "Chiquita Banana," which of course she thinks is precious, but I find slightly racist, or at least highly idiotic. Slade wants to know if she's ready for Round Two. What do you think? Is Jo ready for more camera time? Slade teases that her next date is with a dwarf. Oh these two. Who wouldn't love them? You know, I'm pretty sure Slade has nothing to do with selecting the dates because he seems genuinely curious to meet them as they arrive at "his" house.

Date My Ex: I Wish I Were Kidding

Jo.jpg

Yes, this girl is very important, so pay attention.

Okay so I have to admit that I never watched Jo or Slade or any combination of the two on The Real Housewives of Orange County, so I am going into Date My Ex completely blind. I do not have any preconceived notions of either one's personality or the relationship they've had with each other, their parents, their siblings, or anyone. All I know is this: These two people used to be engaged and now they're going to set each other up with new people. That's what I've gathered from the commercials. So, totally innocent, I sit down to watch this thing.
