I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here!

[newyorkjetsfan]

NBC will premiere a new reality show called I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here! Monday night and will air from Monday to Thursday for a couple of weeks. It's where celebrities are dropped in the heart of the jungle and have the survival skills tested. The viewers are the puppet masters as they dictate which challenges they will perform and which celebrity will go home. They will be playing for charity, and the winner will be crowned King or Queen of the Jungle.

The celebrities are:
Heidi Montag
Spencer Pratt
Stephen Baldwin
John Salley
Lou Diamond Phillips
Torrie Wilson
Janice Dickinson
Sanjaya Malakar
Patti Blagojevich

I watched the last season of the show when it was on ABC a couple of years back with Melissa Rivers, Bruce Jenner, Robin Leech, etc., and it was somewhat dull.

I hope that this one will be better.

Sounds like the HULU ads that I have seen on TV are really working. Oh well, the "evil aliens" are eating well I see.

[blackcatrun]

No wonder I havent watched TV in years.

[King Cantona]

We always have at least one American on our version, we had George Takei (Sulu) on the last series, I remember Antonio Fargas (Huggy Bear) being on once...

I don't hardly watch it but it's on every night for a few weeks so you can't really miss it, you accidentally turn it on and someone you don't like has to eat insects. Now there's no way you're going to turn that off is there?....:)).....

[Buffalo]

Wow, how Lou Diamond Phillips has fallen. Late eighties early nineties he was a huge movie star. La Bamba, Young Guns, Stand and Deliver.
Reduced to reality shows with Heidi and Spencer and Sanjaya. Very sad. Question, how the hell is Rod's wife a celebrity?

And if huggy bear and george takei were involved, it was television gold!

[newyorkjetsfan]

Question, how the hell is Rod's wife a celebrity?



Rod was originally supposed to be on the show, but the courts ruled that he can't leave the country.

Breaking the law and being removed as governor makes one a celebrity these days huh? Funny, that used to bring public scorn and shame. America!

[2Parties1GlobalistGoal]

It's a fraudulent title. There are no celebrities on the show.

[Samm]

It's a fraudulent title. There are no celebrities on the show.

But are there any hot chicks?

Viewers are in control of the action, aren't they? :shifty:

[AeroEngineer]

Sounds like crap.

[Panhead0422]

Sounds like crap.

Why do you want to insult crap that badly????

[terri910]

It's a fraudulent title. There are no celebrities on the show.
I recognized three people.

But had never seen nor heard of the one guy that thinks he's so big a star he called someone at NBC (I think that's what it said on the screen) to ask why he was on this show with a bunch of nobodies...*LOL* Never heard of Spencer Pratt.


But....this isn't the first "I'm A Celebrity, Get Me Out of Here" is it? I thought I remembered something like it a couple of years ago or so....

[fed up in Illinois]

Breaking the law and being removed as governor makes one a celebrity these days huh? Funny, that used to bring public scorn and shame. America!
the real reason Blago was impeached is because he refused to play the political games with Springfield-ie Madigan. I am not defending him but he is not any more guilty than most politicians. His big crime was his arrogance and how he did this in such a brazen open manner. He did do some wonderful things for the children of Illinois- and he did keep his promise about not raising our income tax which his successor wasted no time in saying had to be done. He wants to raise our income tax by 50% so they can balance the budget - a budget that has a 6% increase in government spending and an increase in the state workforce! Say what you want about Rod but he did keep his promise NOT to raise income tax!

[newyorkjetsfan]

But....this isn't the first "I'm A Celebrity, Get Me Out of Here" is it? I thought I remembered something like it a couple of years ago or so....

There was a season of this show a couple of years ago on ABC with Bruce Jenner, Melissa Rivers, Alanna Stewart, Robin Leech, Chris Judd, and Downtown Julie Brown.

That's what I thought! I didn't really know who Chris Judd was, but at least the others I'd heard of...*LOL*

Lou "Blue" Diamond Phillips seems a bit like Bruce Jenner was on the previous show.

[super cool ski instructor]

Woo-Hoo!! Another show for Joel McHale to make fun of on The Soup :dance:

[newyorkjetsfan]

Heidi and Spencer reportedly quit the show. That's too bad because Spencer was entertaining on the show and made it interesting. They will be replaced by Daniel Baldwin.

I can't wait to see Joel McHale making fun of it on The Soup.

[Samm]

I watched about 15 minutes of the show... that was all I could take. Why the hell didn't somebody deck that obnoxious Spencer guy... what a rube... who the hell is he anyway? I never heard of him or his prima donna wife Heidi.

I ended up watching the History Channel reenactment of the Stanley expedition instead. The self appointed butt-headed leader of that group is also hard to endure, but at least the situations are real and it may prove to be interesting and informational.

George learning cockney from Joe Swash was too cute. The oddest couple to become friends.

Janice Dickenson was on the UK version already, I don't know why she's doing the American one. The UK one is sooooooo much better than the US one. As well as BB... next week!! Yippie!

Spencer Pratt needs a kick in the ass....... I'll be first in line to do it too........

[terri910]

Spencer Pratt needs a kick in the ass....... I'll be first in line to do it too........
And his wife needs a reality check. Honestly, why would anyone be sobbing like that because someone took the labels off her shampoo bottle?

[Broseph]

Just Tivo it and watch the scenes with Torrie Wilson. :drool:

[terri910]

I'm really happy those Pratt brats have gone. He was annoying and she was just embarrassing.

[Frau Blucher]

Knowing those two, it's probably because it was something they were trying to "sell"!!

Actually AG, I would rather stick red hot skewers in my eyes than watch one minute of BB. I believe that John Logie Baird would be turning in his grave to see what his invention of the cathode ray tube had become...

That aside Joe Swash and George Takei were indeed the most unlikely pair to end up as best friends but David Van Day just lived up to all my impressions of him when he was in Dollar, wanker....

[newyorkjetsfan]

Reports stated that Heidi and Spencer now wants to return to the show. But, show's rules state that the cast have to agree to have them back.

Like it or not, Spencer and Heidi make the show interesting to watch

[Samm]

Spencer Pratt needs a kick in the ass....... I'll be first in line to do it too........

He needs more than that... :evil:

Would someone please tell me? What the heck is his claim to fame? I have never seen or heard of him before.

Btw... When was Janice Dickenson a top model? She is hideous!

[Frau Blucher]

Speidi as they are sometimes refered to are on the Mtv show "The Hills"....

Janice modeled in the mid 70's I think. She has had so much work done she doesn't even look like herself anymore!!!

I understand, I have found there are less and less fans of BB. If you hate it, you'll never like it. For me, it's interesting as an American watching different types of people from the UK living in a house. It get's crazy, nothing at all like the one over here.

DVD is a total wanker and everything I have seen him on (interviews) since the jungle only magnifies it.

[Samm]

Well that certainly explains my complete lack of knowledge of those two idiots. :D

Same cutter as Michael Jackson's I presume? ;)

[King Cantona]

I heard he was thinking of standing for parliament, it's unbelievable to me the delusions that some people live under, he seems to think people like him...:rolleyes:...

i would take great pleasure in having you kick my ass :D

[terri910]

Well, you see that's where you've got me. I've never heard of them....this show was the first time I'd ever seen or heard of either one. That's why the phone call to the head of NBC was so hilarious to me...*L*

[terri910]

Btw... When was Janice Dickenson a top model? She is hideous!
She said she coined the term "supermodel" so that makes her the first supermodel. :)):)) I guess that passes for supermodel logic.

I'm sure there were wildly popular models ages before (I think I read somewhere that Ethel Barrymore, when she was a very young woman, was a hugely popular model!)....but for my money, Janice doesn't even come close to "The Shrimp" (Jean Shrimpton, famous in the 60's, especially for her Yardley's of London ads). I'll bet The Shrimp looks a lot better than Janice, now, too.

[Frau Blucher]

Well, you see that's where you've got me. I've never heard of them....this show was the first time I'd ever seen or heard of either one. That's why the phone call to the head of NBC was so hilarious to me...*L*

My guilty pleasure is reading the gossip blogs...yes, I know...the SHAME!!! :redface: Anyway, these two are always all over them doing some sort of self promoting. These are the kind of hollywood people that will call in 'tips' to TMZ as to where they are going to be. then act surprised and shocked that the photogs are there.

These two are friends of Perez Hilton from the Miss California fiasco...

[Frau Blucher]

Well that certainly explains my complete lack of knowledge of those two idiots. :D



Same cutter as Michael Jackson's I presume? ;)


I think she is going for the total witness protection surgery package!! LOL

[terri910]

I heard on the radio the other day (on the way to work) that the head of NBC said that those two Pratt brats were "everything that is wrong with America."

*LOL* Okay, that's bad enough, but apparently one of the charities that they are playing for (I think it was the one Spencer is playing for) called the producers of the show and told them to take their name completely OFF ANYTHING to do with the show. They did not want their charity associated with those two in any way, shape, or form.

That's bad, when a charity would rather get no money than have your name associated with them...*LOL*

Pratt or as Talk Soup refers to him(The guy with the flesh colored beard)
is part of a show called The Hills A show so funny without trying to be
He just got married to that Heidi person They call themselves Spidey

[Stuball]

Woo-Hoo!! Another show for Joel McHale to make fun of on The Soup :dance:
The Soup is the greatest show on TV

[Stuball]

I'm really happy those Pratt brats have gone. He was annoying and she was just embarrassing.
they will be back Terri it was just a publicity stunt'
I am sure it wont be the last one
I have no idea who those hosts of that show are

[countmein]

I refuse to watch. I didn't support the Blogojevich family here in Illinois, I will not support them anywhere else either.

[angelicmadrigal]

Btw... When was Janice Dickenson a top model? She is hideous!

Back when dinosuars roamed the earth.

[newyorkjetsfan]

Problems for NBC?

'The Hills' starlet Heidi Pratt was abused by NBC to the point she was "convulsively throwing up" and developed a gastric ulcer on the set of "I'm a Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here," TMZ.com reported.

Pratt claimed she was confined to a dark room for over 24 hours and fed only water, rice, and beans after she and husband, Spencer Pratt, decided to leave the show, the Web site reported Sunday.

One cast member reportedly told TMZ that the two were treated like detainees at "Guantanamo Bay."

Heidi Pratt was transported to a hospital — where she was diagnosed with a gastric ulcer — after being held overnight in the dark room, according to TMZ. Her husband plans to sue NBC over the show, the Web site also reported.

[Stuball]

The only show worse than this one is TMZ
Its all a publicity stunt

[terri910]

they will be back Terri it was just a publicity stunt'
I am sure it wont be the last one
I have no idea who those hosts of that show are
I know. And so they probably WILL be back on...but with at least one new charity! *LOL*

I don't know the hosts, either. And it just cracks me up that they film their "assessment/recap" bits so close to the "jungle camp" of the celebrities. I'm not sure I even believe they are actually in a Costa Rican jungle! *L*

But....it's summer. Except for "So You Think You Can Dance" and "Two and a Half Men" re-runs, there's not much else to fall asleep to!

Hubby and I were just talking about that a week ago. I didn't know who HE was either, because I can't stand listening to Stern...Hubby, who used to listen, was happy for John.

Wonder what path his career will take now....

John claims he will be on Leno's new show in some capacity

[super cool ski instructor]

Okay...so I admit to watching the marathon re-cap of week 1 yesterday on MTV...all I can say is Holy Crap :))


Let me start off by saying I am all for anybody doing stuff for charities...and I really like John Salley...so I find this show not nearly as offensive to the stomache as I thought it was going to be.

I am a competitor...so I like watching shows where people compete against each other in events...as opposed to competition with judging. I like seeing who's character shows through during these kind of competitions.


That being said......Spencer is a major ********* and needs to be slapped around a bit.

I agree about Spencer. The guy is an attention whore.

[terri910]

I heard something on the radio coming in to work today....that Spencer and Heidi are going to be suing the production company, claiming they were "tortured."

I've decided those two are not just attention whores, but two young people desperately crying out for SOMEONE to give them a reality check. I have to assume no parent in their lives have done so, nor any of the Hollywood sycophants that must surround them....so if it has to be a judge in a court, so be it. I just hope it's Judge Judy!! :)):)):))

[King Cantona]

We have a digital channel over here called ITV2, it's a free channel and it has lots of American stuff on it, anyway I saw a bit of IACGMOOH (the US version) and I've got to say I'd have punched that Spencer guy's lights out and I'm a man of peace...

But push me too far, be disrespectful to a woman like that after he's told everyone that he's going anyway and I can only take so much, he's a wanker that I've never even heard of anyway......

[Stuball]

Spencer and Heidi Prattt have succeeded in making themselves household names (at least in more than The Hills fans households)
No matter how much you despise them you now know who they are

Personally, I find it odd to want to be known so much that you don't care what you are known as.


And I think King Cantona has a point -- they will be easily forgotten. They aren't despicable enough to be remembered the way, say, Hitler is.

Thanks for the reminder The Soup starts in 4 minutes

[traditional_woman]

Does anyone know if John and spencer are ''faking'' the whole ''born-again'' act??

I just watched last night's show.

[janer]

Okay, so during a commercial break in anything else I was watching, I turned to this show when they were doing some stunt where the kid who was on American Idol was chained in a chamber that filled up with water and amphibians and reptiles and suchlike and he had to grope around for the keys to unlock himself before something or other happened.
And I thought:
A) This is the sort of entertainment presented by the community that is so vehemently opposed to waterboarding?
B) This scenario would make a great sequel to "Tropic Thunder" - instead of actors thinking they are on a set when they're really in the jungle, have them allegedly in the jungle, but really on an elaborate set - sort of an equatorial Capricorn One.

Oh. My. God.

How gross is Janice Dickenson?

[Pauper66]

This gross?

[terri910]

This gross?
Not certain exactly how gross that is!

Does he get out of bed, and urinate right where he stands (doesn't walk away from the bed...just gets out of bed, stands up, and urinates right there), and hock lugies onto plates that other people are going to use?

:sick:

I mean, yeah, I knew she was a self-centered bitch....but I didn't know she was just plain....gross.

[super cool ski instructor]

Janice Dickenson has been a hot mess for a long time.

There was a clip on The Soup of her on a European version of Next Top Model, Sweden mayeb, and she fell down the stairs. Laying there she was yelling at the models to call an ambulance.....so friggin hilarious :))

I only caught the first two. And part of last night's.

I must say though, I found Patty Blogoevich attractive.

People actually watch the show.....the actual show, not the one on The Soup?

http://www.clicksmilies.com/s1106/spezial/Fool/adr.gif
Yep.

I enjoy some of the funny recaps available, but don't watch The Soup. (I'll take the quick Prime Time in No Time recap online) But I've found that I enjoy the humor in the recaps more if I've actually SEEN the show they're recapping. I don't watch The Bachelor, so when it was getting roasted, my reaction was pretty much: "Meh."

She was on the British version as well, seems to me that she is trying TOO hard to convince people that she's a 'celebrity'...

PS I've only ever heard of her on I'm A Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here! ....:)).....

She was also on a season of The Surreal Life..please tell me y'all got that cornucopia of awesome over there in England!! :))

She was on the same season as Omorosa..of The Apprentice fame. The two of them almost cleaned each others clock daily.....:))

[terri910]

If you don't watch The Soup, then where do you get your funny recaps? (i didn't get your, I'll take the quick Prime Time in No TIme recap online and then went into some kinda recap.. of the recapping...) and then please explain the mention of the Bachelor...???

:razz::)):confused::pray::silenced::rolleyes::clap :
Prime Time in No Time recaps the previous night's prime time shows. THAT is the humorous recap I was talking about. The Bachelor is one of the many reality shows on the air. Prime Time in No time doesn't ONLY recap reality shows, but apparently they are the most fertile ground...*LOL*
