The LOVE OR MONEY Finale!!

Published at:  Sep 08, 2003 10:51:03 PM CDT

SPOILER ALERT !!

I am – Hercules!!

"The defective Simpson gene is only on the 'Y' chromosome!"

"It’s nothing against you. At all. But that this point I have to say to you that, uh …"

Love it or hate it, “For Love or Money” is the highest-rated show of the summer.

Erin Brody bet $20,000 per year against $40,000 per year that she could get some handsome dude to choose her over $1 million.

Was she insane?? Is any woman worth a cool mil??

I am – Hercules!!

    I have no fucking clue what all that means. Onto what others thought was more important:

    Warren Zevon garnered a coaxial spot when he was on Letterman last year. If you need to get technical, this could be about his VH1 special from two weeks ago. Buy or download "The Wind" album. Worth your time and money. I'll be a Trader Vic's if you need me.

    Oh Cyber-Tooth I'd love to see an end to Reality TV programs...

    by regicidal_maniac

    ...as each and everyone of them takes money out of the hands of creative talent and puts it into the hands of brainless and unoriginal network executives and producers. Society must turn its back on reality programming once and for all before it's too late. Writers, directors, and actors are left to starve whilst this shit rates its arse off each and every night. Home gardening shows, fishing shows, infotainment, infomercials, current affairs programs, television evangelists and sport. I'd like to see an end to it all but the fact is it's just going to get worse and worse and worse until we end up watching vidcams of the backs of our own heads staring at the backs of our own heads ad infinitum. TV is the new opiate of the masses and it's far more addictive and corruptive than any drug. Just say NO.

    It depends on how big a cocktease she is

    by sexybeast

    If a girl is constantly promising but never delivering it can drive a guy wild enough to pass on a million dollars just for a chance to test her waters, but I assure you he'll have buyers remorse after he's finished his business.

    by commando cody

    This lame-ass topic is yet another AICN definition of it. >Heavy sigh and rolling eyes < Let me get this straight now. Somehow THIS trademarked and patented "who give a crap about Erin" bullshit warrants its own talkback thread, yet we could never get a consistent one at this site for actual geek favorite shows like FARSCAPE or even now still, for STARGATE SG-1. Do I care who the hell Erin chooses or what does? Not in the slightest. Not unless in the world of this perpetually pandering and intellectually stupifying reality TV programming bullshit Erin chooses me and gets down on her knees and...well, you get the picture.

    granted, most reality television is crap. but the first two seasons of survivor weren't bad. neither was big brother 2 (shannon was a goddess, and will was a big pimp). but yeah, everything else isn't good.

    by radio1_mike

    I think that these reality chicks certainly are not worth a million if you ain't even doing it. I mean c'mon. Reality Girl: I pick you. Chosen Guy: Awww... I think I am falling in love. Reality Girl: I think I am too! Chosen Guy (thinking): Why did I think I could find true love on TV? Why does she think she is all that? Chosen Guy (screams): I coulda had a million bucks, and the had all the honeys after me!!!! No!!!! Yes, folks that is what really happens. Because unless it is true love and all that, you are always gonna be like, "I gave up a mil for this chick?"

    by obi5kenobi

    The people who watch the show care. Whether you like the show or not it is on TV, people will watch it, and like it, so this site being an entertainment news/scoop site will cover it. Why do you take the time to post "who cares?"? Go read about something you like and stop cluttering up the talkback for people who do care.

    by zer0cool2k2

    OK, I'm not going to be one of those people who reads every post about The Matrix, LOTR, Star Wars, etc. and then posts a thousand times about how they all suck and I won't go see them, even though I can't stop talking about them. I'm only here to ask why we get talkbacks about this kind of crap and we can't get anything about good stuff like "Dead Like Me" or "Nip/Tuck"? Sheesh... Ok, rant over.

    for good "reality" programming, watch the joe schmo show on spike (formerly tnn). that shit is fucking fantastic. sharp satire of the current state of reality tv as well as a HUGE practical joke on this dude matt (joe schmo). its genius.

    For all of you fat virgins who belittle anything that doesn't involve rayguns and chicks with bad boobjobs and pointy ears, shut the fuck up. I watched the shit out of this show. It's an experiement in the human condition. It's far more interesting than all of the shitcoms and their spoiled "actors". I know it's "cool" to hate reality shows. Please...by all means...finish shitting in your pants. MF

    by obi5kenobi

    Cyber-Tooth, look at my post then look at your post and tell me which one was written by an adult and which was written by someone less mature. I liked this show alot, it was very entertaining. I don't watch Buffy or Angel or alot of the shows that many people around here love. I don't go to their talkback and say, "Who cares about this show, it's stupid.". You know why, because it's the talkback for people who like the show to discuss it. I'm just wondering why people who hate this show come to the talkback and say "Who cares?". Your post about me and my reality show aspirations seem to be pulled out of thin air. You seem to know all about me just by one small paragraph that I wrote. You seem to have some issues and you can't just disagree with someone without insulting them. It's easy to be brave when you're anonymous, I wish the people on these talkbacks could just be civil for a change. Thank you for calling me a genius, but I took an IQ test and I am not a genius. But if YOU would be willing to look at the article, it says, "Love it or hate it,

    by obi5kenobi

    Dude, if you read my post you will see that I didn't say that I am a genius, in fact I specifically said I was not. In your post you accuse me of bragging about my IQ, which I didn't, and say that I don't see you doing that. Then you go on to say that you scored very high, probably higher than me. Is this not bragging? You say that there are far too many reality shows, well that's your opinion. Could you not say that there are far too many sitcoms that involve two parents, a few kids and some crazy neighbors? This is the formula for most sitcoms is it not? Reality shows are just a new genre. You seem to think that your opinion is the end all be all, if you think there are too many reality shows then anyone who disagrees must have some problems. As for your pop psychology diagnosis of my "addiction" to reality shows, holy cow man, it a damn TV show! You might as well say that because I enjoy looney toons that I have some voyeuristic obsession with dropping anvils on roadrunners. Get a grip, liking one reality show doesn't constitute an addiction. You make some HUGE assumptions in your statements about me and anyone else who enjoys any reality shows. And as for your plaid Star Trek uniform comparison, I suppose you think that beating someone up if they wore a such a thing to school is acceptable? I would suggest reading any post you intend on responding to thoroughly before responding to make sure you have your facts straight.

    To Cyber-Tooth

    by obi5kenobi

    Dude, you have earned my respect. Now, from this day forth let us critique Harry's overly long and sometimes nonsensical rants together. I'll give you two pieces of info though that you might find interesting. My IQ was tested at 129, not genius. This was some online thing so I don't even know if it's scientific or anything. Technically I have applied for a reality show. I was at a place called The Rack in Boston, where I live. My coworkers and I go there every Friday to play pool and have lunch. Two people from NBC approached our group and said they were looking for single males for a new reality show tentatively called "The in Crowd". Since I was the only single guy there they asked me to come and interview with them if I was interested. Needless to say I was not selected. That's the end of my story.

    Ahhh, Erin.

    by shmeelie

    Funny thing- I went to high school with Miss Brodie. I had a big crush on her then. Los Altos High school, Los Altos California. LIke always, she never knew I existed. But I do recall someone of my friends mentioning that there was video footage of Erin, drunk at a party, in stages of undress and dancing on a table. Look for it somewhere on the web and advertized in the tabloids.

    That's too funny Cyber, I wonder if these online IQ tests are for real? I actually want to say that 137 isn't that far from genius. Isn't genius 150 or something?

    Sheelie, I would love to see your high school yearbook. Erin is altogether too hot. She and Chad were supposedly on the Today show the other morning, I didn't get to see it though. I wonder if they are still together. I also wonder if Chad was supposed to be a ringer for Erin, living in San Francisco and all. Hmmm....
