With this show, you were watching your SO have all these adventures while you were alone, which I think would amplify those feelings of being sad and lonely. You're kinda watching the highlight reel and there's no context. Plus there wasn't any adjustment period of having this person back and hearing their side of things.
Yeah, I think that's it, totally. If the person is already back home, you've heard their side before being confronted with whatever images end up on TV, as well as having them right there.
So boring that at the moment I can't even remember the name of the man who was the main draw for the show. Anyway, his dismissal line was "See you later, decorator." I cringed every time it came out of his mouth.
Aw, I still love Jonathan Adler. Love!

Yeah, and I think part of it was that we got to see the familial reunions before the cast members had seen the show. They still didn't quite know how they were being depicted, or what things looked like on the outside. It was just bizarre.
I will say that I did love Ronnie's mom and her, "They're just friends," to Ben's wife. It cracked me up.
I think I adore Ronnie's mom. She just seemed so sweet and concerned about him and supportive.
Ronnie's mom and Holly's fiancee were total rock stars.
I watched some of the marathon of the British MMaSM and I thought the American kids totally blew the brit models away. The vast majority of them were decidedly . . . not that cute. Sad.
Project Runway wants to move to Lifetime.
They couldn't possibly! It must be a bargaining ploy, right?
