And, holy hell, they gave this girl a license?? She almost takes out half of Manhattan Beach driving to her shoot and I attribute it to the fact that she gets all hot and bothered talking to her friend about...how this whole thing is an excuse to get in a girl's pants! Point for the ACLT tally! It turns out her "hot" Deal or No Deal friend Kelly is showing up to take pictures with her. LOL, department of the redundancy department alert! All the Deal or No Deal girls are hot! So we get to the shoot where Adrienne informs us again that this is an "artsy", "vogue" shoot.
Uh, No Deal.
And we end with an extended montage of what we are in for this season and let's just say mad hijinks are in store for us, gang. Adrienne wants her titties done and this will delay procreation. (Anything, god! I'll take it!) But Chris will be like a hundred years old when the kid is ten if they wait any longer, so we are at a crossroads. What's gonna happen?? Boobies or babies?? (We see a scene where Adrienne talks about being raped and abducted and I have a moment where I feel genuinely sad. I am so sorry this happened to you, AC! I know I make fun of you, but I just spent twelve hours of my life writing this recap! See how much I really do love you? xoxoxoxxoxoxox)
She talks about how much likes chicks in a sauna scene, which gets the hard scientist in me all excited, but I'll be fair and wait till it's the actual episode to report the finding. And then the scene we keep getting teased with: the giving of the birthday gift to Chris. It looks like Chris might leave our girl because the girl-on-girl pictures creep him out and he accuses her of...being a lesbian! I keep watching this clip over and over laughing hysterically, because for once I can totally relate to something AC is going through. The snowball guy and I were totally barreling towards a moment like this! The truth IS funny!!
Girl, we all feel this way.
I know our tally is low now, people, but patience is the key to any success. So, come back next week gang and see if Adrienne chooses bearing a baby over bearing bigger titties. Guaranteed to be an exercise in self-loathing and humiliation. You wouldn't dare miss it, wenches.

No one's posted, and while I don't often, I don't want you to think no one read this -- or watches the show for that matter.
Great recap -- the right balance of snark and affection, which is very difficult, given the show. As much as they annoy me more than any other couple on tv, I have to watch their train wreck of a relationship. I'm really glad your recapping it -- it will increase my enjoyment by leaps and bounds. And maybe I won't even have to watch the stupid show!

I read! I may be late, but I read. My old-enough-to-have-borne-me fiance and I watched last season and loved/hated/loved to hate it.

Thanks for the funny recap!
Yeah, this show is a tue guilty pleasure, very hard for me to admit that I WANT to watch it.
Maybe a baby will calm these two down and help them focus. Eh probably not.
But I'm confused. Who wants a baby and who doesn't? He threatened with the big V word but she wants tits, so noone really wants a baby here or what?

hey guys,
thanks for the positive feedback! i'm a sucker for it.
so, yes. wtf? the whole show seemed to be geared towards chris wanting to wait and then we got a "ticking clock" speech in the preview scenes. i got confused too, but i advise not to bring logic to the table here. it'll keep you sane.
and rjfrankel, it's very true that i do have some mad affection for these two. they drive me nutso and i scream at them, but at the end of the day, i'm completely endeared.
xoxog

I admit it. I have a girl-crush on Adrienne. I want to go out and drink wine and be catty with her. I'm not ashamed. Okay, maybe a little.

Great recap IS.
I am also one of those people who loves to hate and hates to love these two. Actually to be quite honest, I had a huge crush on Peter Brady (face it, that's who he is to us, not this Chris Knight character) right up until I saw the first season of My Fair Brady.
I thought his proposal/prank to AC was really quite cruel. I wanted her to scream in his face and walk out realizing he was just a creep.
Sadly, finding out that she was raped explains SO much about her behavior. If he knows she was raped, he should realize how much that has to do with all her sexual proclivities.
Oops, getting too serious for reality tv talk.
I do think they flip flop on who is and who is not pro-baby. But then it's a very schizophrenic relationship.

Knight knew she was bi years ago when she let that rocker chick slobber all over her boobs at another birthday party. He was upset then but it's nothing new!

Great recap!! And I too have a love-hate relationship with this couple.
I have to agree that neither really seem to want to have a baby but what else would be the premise of another show?! Also, I'm pretty sure she gets herself a set of "ladies" (boobs not actual women) as seen in recent pics...but who's to say she won't get knocked up too!

On a side note, I never thought she was that good looking. I also think that Knight only got with her on the Surreal Life to up the chances of getting his own show and more publicity out of it. He's been with way hotter women in his life. Either he's gay or just playing her. Well she's playing him too, for the same reasons.

Adrienne Curie Lesbionic Titration - aka ACLT - you couldn't have thought of an "I" word to put in between Lesbionic and Titration? Infiltrative perhaps? Slip that in there and look at your new acronym.

Adrienne Curie Lesbionic INFERRED Titration ;-)
There's your new "I". Clever acronym, wintersux.
