    Ok, strange thing to admit, but I think it is really hot to see guys break up a fight. There is something about guys stopping violence that turns me on.

    @mommy_dearest: Well, they are usually in the most dangerous position. The guys trying to break up fights often get the violence turned on them. Weirdly, I've known a few guys who have actually been knifed while playing hero and getting involved.

    @shameonme: sadly true. I definitely don't think it is always right to jump in to stop a fight, for exactly the reason you say. But so often you see guys just cheering when a fight starts, so when they actually want it to stop, that is sexy.

    I Love Money is slowly taking the throne away from the real world/road rules challenges. Their drama just seems old. Viva la I love Money with Saaphyri and Buckwild crazyness.

    Ugh, he's originally from Boston, isn't he? I grew up with about 1,000 of this exact species of d-bags. And my mother wonders why I'm not married...

    @stacyinbean: Worse, actually, he's from the Lowell/Lawrence area--I grew up with those guys too, and while I hate to paint any group with a broad brush, as soon as I hear that accent in a bar I still run in the opposite direction. CT's actions don't really surprise me.

    @RedBeansAndRiceDidMissHer: That's the worst part, you don't want to do it, but the chances are just TOO HIGH that he'd be just like CT. I knew so many guys that would break their damn hands punching trees and telephone poles just because they were 'wicked pissed', usually about something as ridiculous as this. That kind of anger scares the shit out of me.

    That almost made me physically sick. I like a good TV fight as much as the next girl but there something about Adam running from CT and the girls screaming..... bad medicine, as Mr. Vivelafat would say.

    CT needs help immediately, I actually felt very bad for him.

    CT always scared me. He seems to have a hair-trigger and it's almost like he can't wait to beast out on someone. You know, like he's always just waiting for the next beatdown opportunity to present itself. People like that generally scare me. Like, dude. Here's a Xanax. Stop hitting people.

    Why do they allow people who have a history of violence onto these shows?

    Road Rules in the early-mid 90's really was a cool show. The people on it were a bit less detestable and usually had some schooling, or career skills, and seemed to appreciate the the surrounding culture more than the bottomless open bar. It was very college.


    The RW/RR Challenges always seem like a spring break that has gone on nonstop for 10 years and refuses to fucking end, even though everyone is old, tired, wasted, and just wants to go home.

    @prestocaro fears the Sexaual Peter: By lives, do you mean getting paid to show up at bars and appear on low rating reality TV?


    Remember when the producers had them doing work study stuff and programs for college credit? And they actually learned something about a different culture? It wasn't always 999 bottles of beer on the wall in some sleazy resort.

    Weren't CT and Adam both on RW: Paris together?


    I ran into Adam (literally) in a bar in Paris when I was 17 and they were filming their season there. They then staged a fight in the bar. (After the cameras stopped rolling they all hugged and laughed) I smell fight conspiracy for ratings.
