ETA: God I loved Ellenore. Although Kathryn & Legacy were my favorite couple from that season.
I so agree, megan!
We have to see the chimp playing hockey! That's hilarious! The ice is so slippery, and, and monkeys are all irrational. We have to see this!

I still can't decide about the All-Stars. I love seeing people like Allison again, but, ultimately, I think it probably should just be the competitors.

I wasn't necessarily a fan of all the All-Stars they've brought back, but I definitely liked how they did it this season, with the All-Stars not coming until later on, more than last season.

No problem, just send me your address. It's recorded on a low setting so I can't guarantee quality. I mean, it looks fine on my crappy used TV. But, hey at least there are no commercials.
