"I'm building an all male team," White Boy explains. Duh, Craig J. White Boy finally chooses Heat, who stands like a petulant gay boy whose dildo was just confiscated, and refuses to get on White Boy's team. "You've been picked," White Boy orders him. White Boy is not messing around. Toastee goes to Hoopz, and Pumkin (who walks like a constipated man) does too. White Boy takes Destiney and Butterface, who informs us it was all that walking around in her bikini that finally paid off. Yeah, okay, that, and the only other choices were Annoying Brandi C., Midge Mac and Nibblz.

Annoying Brandi C. can't believe she's left standing. "I mean, has White Boy even noticed what I'm wearing? Hello!" she scoffs. Well sweetie, the sale rack at Wet Seal doesn't work for everyone. Midget Mac also cannot believe he's about to be eliminated. Over a pair of speedos. And he came all the way from Jacksonville! Nibblz is convinced she's going home.

Hoopz doesn't know what to do, because all three are terrible choices. Craig J. gives them the opportunity to make one final plea, and Annoying is all over it. She pleads that she's an amazing runner and an amazing swimmer. White Boy bullies her into doing push-ups to prove her worth, and not wanting to ruin that desperate thing she's got going, she eagerly gets on the floor. Oh, who are we kidding, when does Annoying Brandi C. ever not eagerly get on the floor? She does manage to eke out ten pushups, but they're not very good ones, and on her way back up, she slips and hurts her ankle. See, going down, easy, going up...now we have a problem.

When it's Midge's turn to stand up for himself, he says he ain't got shit to say. Articulate as ever. Guess he's not going to be doing any pushups then either. And then it's Nibb's turn - she gives a pageant-y speech, and she does her ten push-ups perfectly and easily. Hoopz is nice to Annoying Brandi, but tells her that she can't pick her because she thinks Brandi just sprained her ankle. But, at least she tried, and that's good enough for White Boy. Also, he knows she'll probably do that getting down on the floor trick again to thank him. She literally sobs with relief as Craig J. consoles her, "You were picked last...but you were picked."

I just had to post a pic of this shirt somewhere. Thanks for indulging me.

So, it's back to Jax for Midge Mac. Craig J. voids his check, and tells Midge it's time to "bounce". Midge swaggers off, saying that at least he's leaving with his pride. I say he's leaving just a little bit smaller than when he came in.

And there you have it, episode one. It was a whirlwind, and judging by the preview for the upcoming season, it's only going to get better! There's so much hooking up and fighting in the preview that I couldn't even begin to write it all down. I think it's safe to say that I Love Money, dolls, in every sense of the phrase. Kisses!

Leah:

Flav's so superfierce about the fact that his name is "FlavOR Flav" that I have to give What's-It-J-Whatever props for the artculated "Flayv-Errr-Flav."

dangerdarling:

I'm glad you're recapping this- sadly, that was my first thought after seeing the previews.

This show is going to be such a trainwreck.

loves it.

tadow:

Glad you've got this one covered. I was hoping I wasn't the only one to notice white boy's cami, tat, and chain ensemble.

nerrawllehctim:

Excellent form of douchebaggery by Midget Mac. He was saying that he got more money than Hoops, and I yelled at my TV, "Hoops was the winner of the first FLAVOR OF LOVE! The runner-up of that season sent you home on her own show!"

And where did you get that picture of poor, disformed Mr. Heat?

Poopsicle:

Great recap. There's so many vapid people on this show its got to be good. Heat is a total asshole. And I really dont see how everybody thinks Megan has a hot body. Boobs-yes, the rest of her?? Someone should point out her ass is as flat as her face.

k37744:

helllls yeah.

SO glad you're recapping this nightmare CB. looking forward to every diseased second.

i would happily nosh on some delightful Granny pancakes for the cause. though i have a sneaky suspicion they may taste a bit like worn leather and aqua net. still, i adore her.

anyone else notice annoying brandi's lips? methinks she had some (cheap, hack) work done with the cash she made living up to those highschool nicknames. you don't just wake up one day looking like a duck. she's looking as busted as her buddy, butterface flats. i abhore the 'i'm so hot it makes me stupid' act more than anything.
but with any luck destiney, flasher or granny will grind them both into dust. *(which will then be incorporated into the diamond inlay on craig j's krunk kup. though i will say, this cj is infinitely more articulate than that OTHER cj who hosts crap like this. trucker hats = unequivocal brain power indeed).

SpaceVenus:

Oh, this is a trainwreck.
Hate Megan with a passion.

ChickBomb, I seem to remember from "I love New York" that Mr. Boston is only half-Jewish. I don't know if it helps you, but it helped me a little.

J-Mo:

Way to go, ChickBomb, you ruined all my sexytime fantasies of Boston by reminding me that he's "not real big down there"! Your recaps are spot-on and hysterical (and you save me from having to actually watch this show... sometimes it just makes me sad to see these people... I don't want to laugh at them while the show is airing because I feel guilty, but it's okay when I read about it later and laugh at them!). Much love to you,

xoxox

love, J-Mo :)

itchy:

White Boy would be easier to take if he didn't speak with that thick Yiddish accent all the time.

I think VH1 has finally hit on the right formula...can't wait!

slutty_whore:

Itchy,
Seriously, it's a glorified Real World/Road Rules challenge with the most vapid people in History. MTV nailed this formula ten or twelve years ago.

uglycutie:

OMG....when Annoying Brandi C. said she'd build herself a Barbie dream house on the hills I busted out laughing. This bitch just said this retarded shit...outloud...on television.

I really do think this girl is so sadly stupid that she meant an actual Barbie dream house - like for actual Barbies.

itchy:

Hey, Slutty...sure, MTV might have figured it out (although they seemed to have backslid big time lately) but VH1 is just breaking wind here...none of this nonsense about 'looking for love'...this is pure reality porn...

Show seems to have some semblance of a production budget too.

ReeseWitherspoon:

I loved this show!!!! It is so trashy. I cannot wait for this season. I loved the fact that you said Midget Mac was from "shantytown" because he totally was. I think he lives in the place where Scarlett O'Hara got jumped in GWTW. I liked Nigdet Mac on I LOVE NY, but he was annoying as hell here. Why is he so f-ing smug? What does he have to proud of? What did he mean when he told Hoopz he had more money than her and her !#$@. What did he mean? If he meant her p*ssy, it still doesn't make sense. I was praying that someone would throw his ass in the pool.

stina:

great recap!

quick question, is anyone recapping brooke knows best?

shia0bundan:

Lol ReeseWitherspoon. Nigdet Mac? I know what you meant to type, but the typo is just deliciously, awfully wrong and hilarious (I did a double take).

Anyhow, this show is going to be so amazing. SO glad VH1 decided to go this route instead of throwing more crap like Charm School at us

Also, looks like ROL 3 will be happening soon... never was the biggest fan of ROL series, but Flav is done and NY too presumably (she has her own show coming out soon) so I'll be watching..

wintersux:

Shia...I hope this does not ruin your day but I read some time ago that there would be another installation of Charm School with the ROL girls and with Sharon Osbourne in the Monique role. I will miss Monique's innovation with the English language - "slutatious" being one of my favorite made-up words - but I will not miss her strange ennunciation...the breathy yet nasal way she said things like "pledge pin" drove me nuts.

TheGreatAndPowerfulShaz:

"This world was such a better place before Paris Hilton sprayed her herpes all over it." Never before have truer words been uttered, CB.

SOOOO glad you're recapping this one, darlin'. Go Grandma Rodeo!!
