Not the worst season summary they've shown, but why air it after the finale?

That kitten was so cute! Someone should ship it off to Sundai.

I laughed at Rae's obsessive toothbrushing.

I don't get why they aired it after the finale either, but it entertained me more than many of the others have. Then again I actually liked this cycle better than any other recent cycle.

Aw. I kind of love Nicole more after that.

That shot of the unfinished portrait is finally explained of what's her face. Not that I was losing sleep over it, but it seemed so random.

Yeah, I probably would've eaten the deviled eggs too.

And, oh. Shut up, Bianca and your Pagan talk. She was just a big old bowl of fun, wasn't she?

This recap was hilarious. Laura describing sex as riding a mountain bike (I never expected that from her, she seems so innocent), offering to kiss Nicole, Erin and Laura teaching Nicole to be mean, and Nicole's nicknames for everyone. I just wish it didn't feel so rushed because I would've loved to see more.

This episode was awesome...funniest ANTM episode ever. Loved that game they were playing (idea for some ANTM merchandise ;-) ), loved the sex ed, the cat and well everything. Those bugs - geeez.

And it reminded me again how much I hated Bianca. Funny when she asked Brittany who brought her in the world, your mother? Guess she hatched from an egg or something...

Looks like Brittany was eliminated for not being able to surf - no word on that photoshoot anymore...

"YOU EAT THE PEEHL?!"

Oh Laura. I love you.

"Some of these girls don't seem to know how to be cleanly."

Oh Erin. I love you.

"That's frickin' Satanic!"

Oh Biance. I do not miss you.

BAHM... I want the rules for this!

My heart broke for Brittany, because I missed the episode when she was sent home (and why would I want to go out of my way to watch my favorite get axed?) so seeing her look of shock and horror was heart breaking.

Oh, god - Sundai and Roger the cat? Cutest duo EVER! The squeals of happiness coming from the confessional booth when she brought him in there with her must have been deafening - but it was the most adorable interview in ANTM history. It would have been great if the producers let her keep him somehow.

I admit I was perplexed by the way they handled the whole "Top 14 chosen" and edited it (badly, may I add) to look like Lisa was always in the top 14 rather than addressing Ambergate ... since they actually showed Amber and we all knew she was chosen and then "replaced" for whatever reason (and DAMN, I wish they had followed that up), you would at least hope they don't treat us all like a bunch of ninnies who have conveniently forgotten that freak show ...

How hard would it have been to show the original 14, then say quickly "but Amber had to leave to Lisa replaced her but showed quick;y why she wasn't Top 14 stuff to start with" or something along those lines.

Boo.

Yeah, I thought that was weird. Then I thought I was both misremembering and losing my mind. Good to know I wasn't.

Geez, I think I have to change my opinion (again) of Bianca. First I didn't like her, then I did, but that whole pagan/satan thing was nuts. Good on Jennifer for standing up to her.

Oh, god - Sundai and Roger the cat? Cutest duo EVER!

I know! And now I'm all worried about what happened to him.

Laura said "fuck"! Her giving a sex ed session to Nicole was hilarious. And I never would have guessed that Nicole was that sheltered.

Bianca "Where do you think you came from? Your mom?" Well yes Bianca. The last time I checked, she was the one that carried me around for 9 months and was the one that pushed me out of her whoha, so ya Bianca, I came from my mother. And you?

I didn't think I could love Laura more, but I was wrong. Between the star shaped pancakes, her being freaked out by the fur of a kiwi, her describing sex to Nicole and her "practice this...shut the fuck up", I just adore that girl.

Okay, now for some basic observations.
  • Lulu is still a stank bitch.
  • I thought the game Kara made was fricken' awesome. How fun.
  • I love Nicole's art.
  • I loved the cheesy black and white drama movie music playing during the Erin crying and whiny segment.
  • MIA on Dani! Still love her.
  • A big EW to Sundai for eating the bugged deviled eggs.
  • Roger the cat was awesome and officially the only mammal in the house shorter then Sundai.

This clip show really brought out Nicole's...off-ness. Creepy Mermaid Girl made me laugh though because I thought the same thing when I first saw Brittany. Her Ashley painting was pretty stellar too. I'm surprised those two were close.
Laura came off great. "The fur touched my tongue!"
Kara looked like a pretty fun chick and her game was awesome. They should have shown some of that on the regular episodes, and Roger too!

And Tyra doesn't give them a vacuum?! What the hell Tyra?

I know! Sheash, no wonder the house got so messy. And candy left around like that? My cat knows that would bring ants into the house.

I'm kind of glad we got to see the recap AFTER the finale. Otherwise we wouldn't have seen Nicole's mean girl lesson and Laura's sex education. I really LOL'd.

I guess I'm a country bumpkin too because I never eat the skin of a kiwi. That would just ruin it. I don't know why anyone would do that.

I actually liked this special, and the Dani feature on TMIA and the Christmas commercial featuring YaYa made it even better. BiancAshLulu aside, The girls were silly, immature, but in an inoffensive way. Very '18/19.' I especially loved Nicole, Laura and Sundai. The ants, however, made me itch. Ew!

Yeah, Sundai wasn't that great a model (and the bootleg Rihanna 'do did her no favors), but screw you, Tyra, for not acknowledging the girl had asthma and a fugged up ear.

Oh yeah, and this quote:

You probably shouldn't say stuff like that, Bianca. That doesn't sound like something God would say.

is made of win.

Hmm.. Quite a good bit of interesting footage throughout the recap episode.

*Kara's board game with all kinds of silly. Hee.
*Rae's obsessive teeth brushing
*Sundai and Roger is so freaking cute.
*Laura's: "Try practice this: "Shut the **** up!"" and her sex-ed lesson to Nicole.
*Nicole's nicknames to the girls.
*Ashley's portrait by Nicole is really good!

Now why does the show wanted to ostracize Nicole? Nicole blends in with most of the girls just fine, albeit she is awkward and all.

Don't think that's just a country thing. I've never heard of eating the skin. I wikipediaed it, and it seems to be a healthy thing to do (as long as you wash it of course).

Did they skip photoshoots, or did I just imagine the whole hapa thing?

Well, I'm glad I didn't make it up on my own. :) I was watching this episode with my mom, and I mentioned them skipping that photoshoot, and she didn't remember it. Does Tyra have a brainwashing crew out there or something? "Look into our eyes...there was no hapa photoshoot. Tyra is fierce."

I'll add though, that I usually find recap episodes (from ANTM or any other reality show) really boring. I watch five minutes before giving up. This one was fun to watch. I think a big part of it was because it was the entire season.

Ha, totally loved Sundai and Roger. She even sounded like a cat when excited too.

By the way, I noticed Brittany earlier in the ep in a never seen before style and dress... wonder where did it come from?

Yeah, Sundai wasn't that great a model (and the bootleg Rihanna 'do did her no favors), but screw you, Tyra, for not acknowledging the girl had asthma and a fugged up ear.


Every season I get more and more upset with Tyra. She's always trying to get the girls to break down in front of her, primarily at judging. But the diving shoot? What the hell is wrong with her!! Asthma is very dangerous, and Sundai's fears should have been treated seriously. I have asthma myself and learned to scuba dive in Australia, but the whole time I was nervous, afraid my lungs would burst. At least I continuously used the regulator. There is absolutely NO WAY I would have let somebody take it away from me, and only bring it back when he thought I needed it. I know Tyra is pretty dense and self-occupied, but even she should remember the model that died from asthma when she was only 17 - I think her name was Nikki Taylor (or she was Nikki's younger sister).

Otherwise, this episode made me realize how glad I was that Nicole won. She was a slight favourite over Laura, but I would have been happy with either. Long live geeky artistic outsiders! Conquering the model world is only the start...
