I'm not a particularly violent woman. I hate to see anyone suffer. However, I think I could easily administer electric shock treatments to the person who edits these shows to go to commercial every time there's a reveal of any kind.

Yep, but what Helen just said about "playing the game" leads me to believe she is getting rid of Filipe because he more of a threat. Darn.
 
When is the Season Finale? Is it next Tuesday?? The kids and I have tickets to see "Wizard of Oz" musical at our local theater! I don't know if I can wait a week to watch it (seems to take that long to get loaded online)!

I FINALLY was able to tune in......DH was hogging the TV with a REPEAT - ughhhH!!

so what happened when Bob found out they got rid of Kristin? And Ron? I cannot believe that he could look Bob in the face and be deceitful - is that really what happened? Well, wait. I can believe it, but I wish I'd seen it....

That's what happened. He said it was all Mike's doing. Bob clearly didn't believe him, though. And, of course, once he sees the tapes, he'll know Ron lied through his teeth.

If you missed it until this point, you've missed the health updates. That was amazing. Helen, who is 48, went from a "real age" of 60 to one of 50. Mike lost over half of his 65" waist.

Here it comes....
 
I think the finale is in two weeks. Next week I believe shows the top four in their 30days at home prior to the finale.This season is full of people who have taken the easy way out. As soon as someone becomes a little bit of a threat they send them home ARGGGG!!!
 
Ugh. That sucks big time.
 
How many times was Ron below the yellow line? 6 or 7?? That has to be a BL Record...to NOT get eliminated after that many times!
 
Go home Filipe and kick butt!!!!!
 
Aggravated, agitated, annoyed...............Helen is just as bad as Ron and now she's keeping him around.

I think all of them are probably surprised/shocked watching the show after living it - to see Ron's true colors. I'm so disgusted.
 
Ron will be back to his original weight within 6 months of the finale airing.....he just does not "get it".

He had the advantage that no one ever considered him a threat.
 
*lol* Look at all the food on the tables behind him when he gets home!! I don't think too many of his family really care what he has to teach them! Only his immediate family.

This is what I've said all along. He has never really deserved to be there like some of those he's manipulated off.
 
can you believe how thin Tara's arms are?!?!

Of the 4 finalists, I want Tara to win.

Me too! I loved it tonight when she explained that her "strategy" was to never fall below the line. It seemed sincere - not about game playing. Plus, I want to really believe that those who work hard are rewarded.
 
I would still like to see Mike win....DESPITE his dad. He deserves it.
 
I've never really followed the show. Do we get to vote for the winner? I'd have to vote for Tara. I think she's worked the hardest. I didn't really like her at first but she's done an amazing job. I like Mike too but his reward (besides the $10,000 Tara gave him) will be the lessons learned and weight lost.
 
I think we only get to vote for the last person to be in the Final 3....so whoever falls below the yellow line next week, America gets to decide who moves on.The winner is determined by weight at the very end.
 
yes next week we vote to pick the third person to go to the finale. So there will be two people above the yellow line and two below. We pick from the two below. Then at the finale whichever from those three has the highest percentage wins. I think the same goes for the people who were sent home. Of those the one with the highest percentage wins a secondary prize.

what was this? I must've missed it....

When Tara won the challenge last night, she had the option of taking (a deduction of) 1lb or $10,000 with the knowledge that the one she did not choose would go to the person (Mike) who came in second place.
 
Tara deserves to win. You can see the determination in her eyes at every challenge. I really wanted Filipe part of the final 4; he also has worked so hard and had the drive. As far as Ron, this is why I do not like the couples theme that they have been doing for the past few seasons. He really doesn't have the drive to win...he wants his son to win....WRONG! I really wish the show would go back to singles and not couples. It is amazing the results this season.
 
I missed the vote - did they all vote for Filipe to go home?

Well, Mike voted for Filipe, and then so did Helen - so it didn't really matter if Tara did or not. I changed the channel at that point to see who got voted off DWTS....I was just disgusted that Ron made the final 4. :grumpy::yuck::grumpy::yuck::grumpy:
 
If Ron makes it to the final three he won't even try just so Mike can win. So frustrating. Mike has a better chance because he was more overweight than Tara - he can still weigh over 190lbs and have lost 50%, but Tara will have to be under 150lbs to have lost 50%. And Tara is kind of tall I think - she's as tall as Mike anyway. And he will probably end up less than 190lbs. He got rid of his real competition last week when they sent Kristin home - but Ron had NOTHING to do with that according to him. Whatever!!!!!! Liar.
 
It would really surprise me if Ron made the final three. You know that Mike and Tara will probably be above the yellow line so then America votes for either Helen or Ron to stay. From there they will do the final weigh in of the final three in two weeks...
