I was not a fan of the show from the get-go, and I blogged about that at length several times in the fall... but after it became clear the show was not going to make it, it seemed like piling on to criticize any more. So I'm going to uncharacteristically bite my tongue except to say that, since I never thought they were on track in the first place, I'm probably not the guy to ask. @anonymous:

I know its on it's last legs, and the previous weeks epsiode was almost embarassing to watch, but i think last night, they got back on track. James any comments?

Have you caught it? Thoughts? I just don't see it making it past this season. I was glad to see "John" get cut adrift at the end. Who has ever heard of a Scientist/Exotic Dancer? He was so annoying with his "I'm a gift from God to mankind" attitude and the look on his face when the vote was unanimous against him was priceless? It was worth the whole stinker of a show. James,

Funny, I used this word in a sentence just yesterday evening at a local outdoors store. I was looking for replacement clevis pins for my son's external frame backpack before we leave for a trip this weekend. Who'd a thunk it? Clevis.

It was the O'Keefes. I finished 4th in the countywide spelling bee in 5th grade, misspelling "jib boom," which I believe I took for one word and spelled "jiboom." Shut up. Close enough for Tuned In.

Actually, I think it was on the WB and the name of the show was the name of the home-schooling family. The Keefes or something like that? I won the spelling bee in 7th grade. The second-place kid spelled "cemetery" wrong. It was fun, but the celebrity was too much for me -- women, parties, drugs, you know the drill. I never defended my title.
