  • show: Celebrity Fit Club

    episode: The Finale

    The Bottom Line: "Terrible"

    This episode was a joke to the whole series. Ant claims that "the scales don't lie," but maybe the people who do the math for them do. According the Ant, Kelly LeBrock's team lost the most weight and won the prizes. That's a lie!! First of all, the celebrity who lost the most weight was Young MC, who was on Chastity Bono's team; secondly, when they switched Tempestt Bledsoe and Countess Vaughn to the other teams, they didn't put Temptestt's weight loss on Chastity's team total, and by leaving it on Kelly's team, it made the totals wrong. Third, they apparently didn't recalibrate Kelly's total team weight when Gunnar replaced Jeff, so it's like the team lost 30 extra pounds; lastly, Countess, the only celebrity to GAIN weight on the series, was on Kelly's team, so that would have to subtracted from the final amount. If the people keeping track of the weight loss added it up by totalling the amounts of weight individually and then adding up the contestants by the final teams, it's obvious that the team of Chastity, Young MC, Bruce and Tempestt were the REAL winners and got robbed of the prizes.

  • show: For Better or For Worse (2003)

    The Bottom Line: "Good"

    I like watching this show mainly for the tips couples can pick up when trying to save money in budgeting for a wedding. Granted, some of the ideas are completely off the wall, and a few of the planners act like they've never done this thing before, so some of their projects look awful, but it's nice to see how much family members are willing to help the bride and groom have a nice ceremony. Unfortunately, I don't think they understand the whole limited budget concept. I would change a few rules: first, the number of guests invited should be a set amount, like no more than 100 people. If you want 500 family members at your wedding, send the other 400 a video of the service and plan a big reception for after the honeymoon. I also think that the job of invitations should be the one task assigned to the bride and groom, and it should be completed ahead of time; the producers must let them know when the show is going to be filmed, so why can't they send out invitations in advance? Giving people only a few days notice before a wedding is ridiculous, especially if they have to factor in traveling. Lastly, I would insist that the planners act like this wedding was just like any other they are planning and LISTEN to their clients. Too many times I've watched the family try to tell these idiots what the couple likes, only to have the planner say something to the effect of "Forget it, we're doing it my way." Well, I hate to break it to you, but it's not BURGER KING, it's THEIR WEDDING. You're supposed to do what they want, not you. If someone pulled this on me, they be fired in a second.
    Another thing I'd change is the location. Why does every wedding have to be in California, showing off the exorbitant prices? Why can't they go around the country, like the other series on TLC? I read the bulletin boards, and that's exactly what fans of the show want, especially people who ask if they can apply to be on the show. People at TLC, you need to learn to listen, too.
