[QUOTE=Flamen;47281]It seems like every episode they target one main roomie. This week's was obviously Ryan, next week seems like it will be Katelynn, which i cant wait! Hopefully week after that they will do Baya. And welcome Baya![/QUOTE]
It won't happen for Baya at least through episode 8. AFter that, I don't yet know.

The Baya vent was funny. I'm sorry you're getting the editing shaft Baya but hopefully we'll get to see more about you in the upcoming episodes. Then again maybe you don't want to- I'm not so sure whether Devyn's too thrilled about her "front burner" storyline hahaha. I hope this isn't one of the main themes this season: Devyn coming off being obsessive like about Scott and Scott pushing her away and hooking up with everyone but her. There were some cringe worthy Scevyn moments going on in tonights show. Though to be fair it seemed like everyone was slagging Scott off and Devyn was getting the brunt of his wrath (she wasn't even the one that came up with the dating rules thing). It is kind of funny he's showing all the girls his modeling portfolio though.
[/quote]
I kind of agree. I still think Baya should get more attention, but sometimes the ones who are shown less come off looking better, or having less embarrassing (whether actual moments or created by editing) moments than the ones shown the most. Didn't Robin make that argument concerning Jamie not getting a lot of screen time on RW SD? Jamie came out looking like the great, sweet, innocent person based on what people who watched the show are always saying about her from (I only saw a couple of episodes) - she may actually be like that regardless of more screen time (I think it may be a part of her based on what other cast members say and the limited view I've gottn of her on the challenge), but there was less of a chance of her looking bad with less exposure. Even good people sometimes look bad in certain instances on these shows.
Still, I would think most cast members would want a little more exposure since they signed up for a TV show. I know a big part of doing RW is for the experience of living in a new city with new people, but I'd guess a lot them of would be excited about being on TV as well. I think they could show more of Baya going to dance class or DJing or just having fun moments like she described earlier, at the very least. Hopefully she will be featured a little more later on.
[quote=Bacchus]On the subject of Scott's dating habits, I think it is fine what he is doing. As a gentleman myself, I see nothing wrong with his behaviour as long as he is not:
[B]a.) Sleeping with them all.[/B]
b.) Leading them on to think it is an exclusive thing.
Sure, there might be more to it, but in simplistic terms - it is ok to play the field as long as you are upfront, honest and ethical. Scott seems like all of those things from what I have seen thus far.[/quote]
I don't think there's anything wrong with him sleeping with them all just as long as he isn't leading them on to think it's an exclusive thing. :smileysex:

People do have differing moral standards. The random bedding of random women would not rank high on my list of things to be known for on a national TV show.

lol... I'm totally aware of differences in morality. I think I just watch Two and a Half Men too much.
Is it just me or has anyone else gotten the vibe that Scott is extremely conscious about what he says and does on camera?

No, it's just not you. I think everyone seems that. BTW, after the last After Show taping in LA (which is probably on next week) there was a party at the home of a 51 Minds producer/friend of the After Show host Mark Long. Scott brought along TWO women whom he apparently met at some club. Either this is the real Scott or he has decided to "live" his edit. :biggrin: (and yes, Devyn was there!)
Happy 21st Birthday to Devyn tomorrow!
Happy Birthday to Devyn (saying it now in case I forget tomorrow)! You're an Aquarian (as am I).
About Scott - I guess maybe he is enjoying the increased attention that the camera brings these guys. Not that he needs it, since I think he's quite attractive. But even the attractive guys from the shows probably get extra attention from the bigger exposure. I could see how that would be really flattering.

I get what you're saying and I wasn't suggesting at all that she shouldn't want to be shown more on the show. I do like Baya and hope to see more from her. But I definitely agree with the example that you used in your post. While the tv exposure is good if I was to have done RW years ago and there was a choice between being seen less and coming off more like a Jamie vs. being seen a lot and coming off looking like a Trisha (didn't really watch Sydney but every episode I did see, she was in it looking like a tool) I think I would rather have less screen time hahaha. But then again I guess it depends on what you were looking to get out of the experience in the first place. I would definitely like to see more of Baya though, the season is pretty heavy thus far and while it's been great it'll be nice to (hopefully) get to see the more lighthearted stuff too.

Hey guys! I just want to say hello and introduce myself into the family of episode discussions! Since I lived it, I hope I have an accurate take on what happened.
Episode 5 is great, but you have already seen what happened and Im sure other roomies will blog about that. I wanted to touch on some of the stuff you didn't see.
Ok, by now you have probably noticed... I am BARELY on the season. My storyline seems to be that I tryout for a dance conservatory, decide not to go there, and flirt with Ryan...wow, so much depth I can hardly contain myself. This season BMP decided to do something totally different, I know you thought there were going to be 8 roommates, no no BMP cast a ½ a roommate for a total of 7 ½! I happened to be the lucky ½. So here I am sort of like a night lurker, just a little creepy crawly in the background who walks behind the carabs somera, maybe glances into the fridge, gmeone's butt, says a little something here and there, haha yeah that's me.
So in episode 5, there is more to it that meets the eye and unfortunately it didn't make to air. First of all... the night of the fashion show... I don't know what I was drinking, but I was sshhhwasted! We went to a club where I was on the dance floor (obviously breaking it down like whoah), when I decide to go to a different dance floor on my own. So I walked up to the bar and I was about to get myself a drink when... lucky me, there is a group of these fratboy-looking ********* guys waiting for the next girl to take home. Those are always the lame-o's who love to get girls all liquored up so I take my broke *** over to them:). We start chatting, they are buying me shots and the next thing I know they realize I'm with the cameras, Ooohhh hooo! So at this point we are all 3 sheets to the wind and I tell them that if two of them kiss, I will bring the two that do back to the house with me. Hook, line and sinker -- those fools do it!!! It wasn't just a small kiss either, I had those guys going at it, mwahaha!!! Oh my hell, it was too funny and it wasn't captured!!! The only thing that was missing was someone else to share in the glory. Needless to say I ran off after that, in true night lurker form, cracking up. And of course I wouldn't have brought them home... ew. The shoe prank may be Ryan's idea of fun, but this... this is my favorite kind... dumb guys are the best to mess with![/quote]
BTW great picture for starters. You are very beautiful.
And secondly, don't feel too bad as Scott also does not really have a story plot this season. So it is instead 7 people not 7 and 1/2. You both are the 1/2 LOL. And even though you might think you are not getting enough screen time, you probably have one of, if not, the biggest fan base here so you definitely have nothing to worry about.
And I totally can not believe you did that, OMG Baya you are so evil and so ninja it is fantastic! My gosh, I am so disappointed that it did not make cameras because it would have probably be an easy highlight in the episode. Don't get me wrong, good/great episode, but more Baya turns a good into AWESOME.
And we really need more commentaries by Baya Voce, because this one was too funny
Did anyone else notice that JD had his mattress on the floor in Katelynn and Devyn's room? I wonder why he wasn't in his room with Sarah? I may have missed something, but that dawned on me during a commercial break last night.

Oh, I wasn't trying to say that you think Baya shouldn't want more TV time. I was just agreeing with you and then adding a few extra thoughts that popped in my head. Baya seems like a nice girl and hopefully they will show a little more of her, in a positive/fun/driven way.
Concerning JD being in a different room, roomie, I thought he was in the room with Baya (?), which I might be wrong about, but nevertheless, it sure didn't seem like he was in his room. I was wondering about that as well.

RW561015, JD had his matress in Baya and Scott's room. I too wonder why he wasn't in his original room with Sara.

Happy 21st Birthday to Devyn tomorrow![/QUOTE]
WOW, she was only 20 during filming?? She seems so much older than that!
Happy Birthday, D!
Hey guys! Glad you all enjoyed episode 5! How about some insight as to what really happened?
But first lets clear up this whole after show business. The two "random" girls in fact were not random at all. One you all know, Bri from season 20. We filmed both "After Shows" that day and we all went out to the club together. The other girl was her best friend. They both are really great people.
As far as my "dating". It was frustrating enough with the roommates giving me a hard time but I didnt feel like I had to explain myself to anyone. I would meet up with my new friends in the city while I was going on castings. Honstly, do you think that if I only talked about myself all the time that they would even want to hangout with me at the house. They would think I was a jerk, I would too. Also, Nikia was not a dating interest. She is a great person, but she has a boyfriend and was upfront with me about that. She actually came to the house a couple times with her friend Stephanie who later becomes and still is very close friends with Devyn and I. But Nikia and I had a lot of common interests so why not be friends. When we were on the computer together she was showing me all her photos and blog pages that she has, then I showed her the stuff I had in my room about my modeling career.
Also, there was a question that it seems like I was holding back on the show.. Well, thats just my personality. I am very passive and only voice my opinion if I feel I really need to. The world is a lot bigger than a lot of the issues we had in the house. But its only episode 5 guys. We still have a lot more to go and I am going to let the season show my true colors.
Also, check out this link. [url=http://kiss108.com/pages/Matty.html]KISS 108 - Boston's #1 Hit Music Station![/url] Baya and I are participating in an event close to my home town called [B]Dance4life[/B] to raise money for HIV/AIDS. I did a radio interview about it yesterday morning.
I will also be participating in [B]Breaking the Cycle[/B] this year. It is a 3 day bike race from Boston to New York (You will see it in an upcoming episode) The event takes place in September so if anyone wants to sponsor or donate to the cause please e-mail me at [email]scott@scotthermanfitness.com[/email]

Thanks, Scott. Apparently I stand corrected on the "two women" question, although my two sources were at the same party at Mark's friend's house. Admittedly, my sources were probably not in the best of condition to remember much, but I'm not sure how they would have misidentified Bri since we were all in the bar at the hotel together while you guy still taping the second show. Maybe there was some "jealousy transference?" :biggrin:
Anyway, I now owe you, so I'll hit you up on the [B]Breaking the Cycle[/B] sponsorship thing.
Thank you for responding Scott, and your words were my exact thoughts! You seem like a really good guy and from your post I can tell you definitely are a really good guy.
I am glad you have joined us in this forum
This episode was very deep, but I feel that it lacked a lot from a lot of people. We really only saw a lot of Scott and Ryan, but it was nice to get to know them more.
I feel that this episode showed a lot about what has been lacking from The Real World for about 7 years, emotion. But this season has brought so much emotion, and I feel thats what makes it stand out.
Scott, thanks for the input, as it does clear up issues. I feel that you not needing to raise your voice so much is pretty admirbale, but I can't say much because I flip out on just about everything.
Hello everyone! This is my first post on Vevmo and I'm glad I found it.
I would like to say that I don't think Scott is doing anything wrong either. Would everyone be freaking out so much if he was bringing home a different guy every night and just hanging out with them? Probably not. He's not kissing the girls or having sex with them or anything else so I'm really not sure why everyone has a problem with that, except for Devyn.
Devyn is pretty jealous because she really likes Scott, but if she wants to date someone, I don't think she'd have any trouble at all finding someone else that is worthy to date and is actually into her.
I can't wait to see next week's episode and I really hope that no one is mean to Katelynn. It's 2009 already and people need to just live and let live. She's transgendered, so what?

Charlie, first, welcome to vevmo.
This board tends to be informed by reality and not by literally embracing the edit of the episodes. The fact is that Devyn, Scott and Baya continued to be roommates in NY following completion of the show last November. Unless both Scott and Devyn are complete nut cases, neither would agree to a roommate situation if Devyn was actually jealous. All the roommates picked on Scott. In a house where the pressure from production is to continually give them something they can use, things like pranking one's roommates and harmlessly ganging up on one of them is the way this cast dealt with the situation. Past casts have provided boozing, groupies and in-house hookups to satisfy production's needs. This season is just a little different in that regard.
Scott and Baya - welcome to Vevmo and thanks for posting (is it me or does this season seem a lot more down to earth than the last one as far as interacting with the fans?). Scott you are cool and Baya I love your dancing - you work it gurl!
Anyways now to the episode
Ryan - did I miss something big - did he have some kind of connection to 9/11 (not sure if he was from New York or he lost someone in the towers, etc.)?
I won't say much about Ryan because I respect him as a soldier for what he's done for our country. Other than that I'm not sure I like him very much.
Scott is no Steven (Vegas) or Will (Hollywood) so lets give the guy a break huh? At least he didn't hook up with the girls - and even if he did, he didn't flaunt it. Let's face it - this guy could have just about any girl he wants.
Devyn - I hesitate to say she was jealous - I think she just had a small crush not real feelings for him. I just don't see her as the jealous type.
Chet = Orville Reddenbocker LMAO - just when I thought he couldn't get any dorkier (in a funny way, not a bad way).
Looking forward to next week's episode - poor Katelynn.

It is much less hostile this time around. There was a lot of contention and sides were drawn up between the dueling males in the house - which caused many defensive (and [I]offensive[/I]) postings. This season is much more civil, which is great.
[quote]Ryan - did I miss something big - did he have some kind of connection to 9/11 (not sure if he was from New York or he lost someone in the towers, etc.)? [/quote]From what I gathered from the episode, he was affected as an American, rather than in a more individualistic manner.

Ryan is from Pennsylvania. On Sept 11, 2001, United Airlines Flight 93, which had been hijacked by terrorists, crashed in a field in Somerset County, Pennsylvania. That, and the attack of the World Trade Center and The Pentagon were motivational to Ryan. Visiting "Ground Zero" at just one of the places where Americans died that day is like being with everyone who was affected that day. Ryan did mention Flight 93 during the episode.
With re: to Ryan I think he said that 9/11 was the reason why he joined the military and also he came back from his tour of Iraq 9/11 2006 so the date is meaningful as an American and on a personal level.
Thanks Scott for clearing the record. Though honestly even if Scott had slept with the two girls it wouldn't make him necessarily a man***** by Real World standards. Teck, David from NO, Mike from Miami and just about every guy who wasn't in a relationship (and some who were) hooked up with girls during their time in the real world house. This cast is pretty tame in that respect compared to previous ones.
This was a good episode. I felt bad for Ryan for what he's been through and what he's seen being in Iraq and even the aftermath with knowing friends who's killed themselves. It happens so often but we rarely hear about it. It's sad but it looks like he's holding up pretty well and tries to keep a smile on his face but you can tell a little that it still affects him. I would love to know what he thinks about the "truth" behind 9/11. I'll just leave it at that. I don't know if I like him or not though. he seems a little naive but I take that as him just being young.
JD I really thought would be the one who would keep everyone in check and was the mature one but after these last 2 episodes he seems like the one I dislike the most. The BS he pulled on Devyn and just the way he handled that whole situation was just crazy to me. Telling Devyn that the girl sounds so much better than her and putting down devyn to her face just shows what kind of person he is. Has no regard for other people or their feelings. Yeah, he might have been drunk but that's when you show your true feelings.
Chet I think is the funniest person on this season. I love his attitude. Doesn't let the small stuff bother him. Just a cool guy. Not what I expected from a mormon boy lol.
The whole Scott thing was so funny how they were clowning him. I would hate to hear a full conversation with him and a girl because I bet 90% would be all about him. "Me me me me me" lol.
Does anyone know if Katelynn tells the men she talks to if she used to be a man or not? Specifically that guy she went out on a day date with in the last episode I think.
