Well this is it. Tonight Stacey Anderson will choose the man that she will spend the next 24 hours with. TV Land is calling this a season finale so I guess the ratings were high enough to warrant a second season. My plea is that they pick someone with about four less kids and four times the personality. What could be more interesting than Stacey?
Sorry for my tardiness with this missive but I couldn't bear to revisit this show for the finale. I eventually sucked it up and thought of all the money I'll make once this is published. Sometimes you have to lie to yourself. This week, we get to meet Stacy Yawnderson's kids because she says that she can not fall in love with a man until he meets them. The kids arrive at the house and Colt is the first to meet them. Delaney, Graham and Tatum arrive and all I can say is - where's the fourth kid? I'm already raising an eyebrow at our favorite non-custodial parent of 2009.
Tatum is a little cutie pie and so is Graham. Delaney is also present but I'm not sure if she's the 23 year old since the fourth kid isn't there.
If she is the oldest, I can see why Stacey wouldn't mind dating someone the same age as her daughter. I hate to say it but Delaney isn't any competition. I almost wonder if Stacey purposely makes sure Delaney doesn't exceed her mom's hotness. I've seen moms do that before.
Colt brings the party starter (or party ender depending on whether you can hear or not)-his guitar. He introduces himself and then has a private conversation with Stacey's two girls. He awkwardly has this conversation with his guitar in his hands.
I just saw that this poor girl's name is spelled Tatym. I'm all for individuality but it just looks like it's spelled wrong. I googled the name for the heck of it. It means joyful and it's a variation of the name Tatum. Mystery solved. The girls ask Colt if he'd like to marry Stacey and he says he would if it led there someday. Then Graham Cracker takes Colt to the side to talk man to man. Graham asks all the right questions so he clearly read his script the night before. He asks if Colt's been in a serious relationship (kinda), if he'll stay in L.A. (he's not attached to his latest cardboard box so not necessarily) and if he should win (some lame ass answer that should have just been yes). Colt leaves and TV Land treats us to a two minute long preview of everything that will happen in the next segment. Thanks jackasses.
Jimmy arrives at the house with treats. He brought flowers and food to cook for dinner. I'm sold! Stace is hoping that Jimmy won't come across as the arrogant jerk that she thought he was. Little note Stacey: first impressions are usually accurate. Jimmy has just made the adjustments he needed in order to stay on the show. Jimmy, as usual, still won't smle. Delane asks how old Jimmy is and he replies:
Okay. I may have embellished that a little but that's really the way he looked at her. Carefully observe how Stacey is smiling on as he looks at Delaney with the stank eye. She looks like one of those women who are totally willing to screw her kids over for the first man that will show her any attention.
All of the kids giggle nervously at Jimmy's admission of his age and his menacing glare. They seem like kids who are used to the emotional abuse handily spouted out by their mom's boyfriends. Graham can't believe that Jimmy's only 7 years older than him.

TVland sucks...they used to let us expats watch their crappy shows on their web site, but now that's been blocked.
Maybe it's because they're so ashamed of their shows they don't want anyone outside of the US to know about them?

Wow! Thanks for sitting through that dreck! (Who did you piss off to get assigned both Cougar and the "celebrity" show?? Ouch!)
If you are NOT paid, you should be. If you ARE paid, it can't be enough!

Kuddo's to you for your pain!!!! I only saw one scene of this show, and it was the one where Jimmy took his shirt of and mounted him some cougar--which I found pretty hot, and was glad that she picked someone who was into her. He's 23, c'mon, I'd never have guessed. He does need a haircut desperately, but I wish them well.
A toast to the Cougar, and to you, L boogie!

L Boogie-I have actually watched everyone of these shows and followed your recaps faithfully. This is your BEST RECAP EVER! There are too many hilarious lines to quote, but you rock big time. Thanks for putting a smile on my face and diet coke on my keyboard.
xoxo

Would you believe that I volunteered for both shows?! I'm a glutton for punishment.
