Beauty and the (vs) the Geek Ep2

I am so glad to see the proper theme song back. At least I have one small bit of comfort and familiarity in a completely switched around season.

An early mention of this shows Get the fuck off my TV award goes to Amber just for the comment regarding one of the geeks who return from the elimination room that "someday he'll be rich and take care of me"

the challenge a 10 minute talent review. Johnathan feels they have an advantage as most of the beauties are models and all they do is pose. most of the girls agree most of them have no talent. One comes up with the concept of writing E=MC2 on their asses and flash.

Despite much debate late into the night the Beauties still hadn't come up with what they were going to do. The geeks meanwhile the Geeks seems to be getting a rap together. There was an interruption with a game of Spin the Bottle. Matt was rather sweet in where he said he didn't want his first major kiss to be during a game like that.

Amber continues to bug hitting on as many geeks as she can, last week being Cowboy Joe, this week she focuses on Tommy. She freely admits to the other Beauties she's just doing it to stay out of elimination. Some of the Geeks see right through here. So far I think she has real potential to be another CeCe

Off to the theatre with the Beauties trying to figure out how to fill another 8 mintues, and the Geeks fully prepared and rehearsing. The Beauties have this typical schoolgirl thing going on. Randi seemed to be taking the lead in choreography. This girl I like.

Beauties go up first and given some of the expressions of the audience, they're dead, at least I hope so. It was a mess. A complete and total mess. the boos from the audience further confirmed this exiting to the chant of "We want Geeks"

Geeks up next. For a Geek, Tommy is BUILT. He took of his shirt during the start of their act and whoa! Johnathan threw in a Vilosaraptor, impression, a bit of stand up from another. On the whole they were so much more together and it's the Geeks for the Win!

I still look forward to when they drop the VS aspect of the show. It's kinda interesting but it's still against what it's supposed to be all about. Most of the Beauties are relying solely on sucking up to various Geeks and not making any effort. Some just wanted to have fun and not bother studying. It's like they don't even care. What was even worse Amber was bitching about others doing it when she's probably the most guilty of them all. Only two episodes in and it's not about the learning from each other anymore. I have heard about half way though they drop the VS. I can only hope that is true.

In the decision process they use Roberts Rules of Order and various straw polls. 10 motions later and much discussion they made their decision which much seems to be based on who causes the most drama.

Tommy doesn't seem to see through Amber's manipulations and wants her to stay. Poor fool he. Up for elimination are Amber (who didn't take it well at all) Amanda (suspected it would happen as she hasn't made any connections) Randi, Christina & after the commercial break we have Jillian.

Amber pipes up once more and accuses Leticia and in turn insulting the Geeks. Cowboy Joe lays into her. He was a bit annoying in the first episode, but he has my support now. She continues to argue with him but Cowboy Joe holds his own. Tommy however continues to be an idiot, not wanting Amber to go.

Amanda's the first to be safe, followed by Christina and Jillian. Randi and Amber are the last to go with Amber having some sort of attack which I don't believe for a moment. It's Randi for the win, Amber whining that she buzzed in and she is gone! Such a relief for usually the one I want to go away the most seems to hang on, and on, and on.

Despite my continued misgivings on the change for the season this was a satisfying episode.
