DISQUS

susanjacobs · 1 year ago

My daughter has totally gotten into TBL. She is almost 7. I don't know how to feel about it. Especially because she told me: "When I get older, I want to go on TBL." My response: "No, you don't. You will have to be really fat to go on the show, and I don't want that happening."

Daughter is also totally a Red Team fan. She LOVES Sheridan and Cosi. Cosi is okay, but Sheridan?!?!? I tend to like the Blue Team better. I dig Alison because in some ways, she reminds me of me. Early 30s and a mother... I am not as big as her, but I could stand to lose a few kilos.

DD and I have many TBL conversations with her being a YAY RED and me being diplomatic because I don't want to tell her that I don't really like the Red Team, but I don't have any real feelings about Blue either. So I fend off questions about who is my fave Red Team member (Sam, ex-Blue) and what did I think of Nicole's weight loss (okay, but look at the Blue girls) and who I think will leave tonight (not a clue, but I hope it isn't Sam).

Daughter thinks that Nicola will go home. At least, that was what she was telling me in the car on the way to school. I hope Sheridan goes; I don't like her.

Maybe your daughter likes big boobies? Sheridan's always talking about hers... :D

I kind of want Sheridan to stick around, just so I can make more lame jokes about her and her LOVERRRRRRRRRRR.
There's reasons for me to want all of them to stick around though. I'm just keeping my fingers crossed it won't be Nicola or Sam.

I didn't think of the breast connection. Must be the lack of Y-chromosome? My DD wants big boobies when she gets older -- she wants to grow them herself and not have a doctor make them big. Smart girl.

Or could it be that she think Sheridan is pretty? 'Cause Sheridan is pretty, even if I don't like her.

Yeah, I don't want Nicola or Sam to go. I want to see Carrianne battle Nicole, so I kinda hope it won't be her.

I don't want any of the Red team to go because they are all entertaining in some way or another. I want Cosi and Sheridan to stay because of the antics, I want Sam to stay because I like him and he plays tricks at temptations, Garry to stay because I wonder what excuse he is gonna come up with next, Nicole because I wanna see her with her twin, and Nicola because she doesn't give a shit about Sheridan and that pisses sheridan off.

'So suck it you fucking whiny ass bitches on the forums saying Shannan shouldn’t've promised him that. Suck it long and suck it hard! :-P'

That's exactly what I thought Mythor. Weren't those forum know-alls painful? Sean looks great. Can't wait to see him at the reveal. I wonder how someone could alert his pretty daughter to your blog? Hmmm ...

I hope that Sheridan leaves, although I do enjoy the bunny boiler bits.

Mythor · 1 year ago

At least some of the contestants would be aware or will be made aware of the blog.
But I'm not trying to use my blog to get laid. Honest! ;-D

Bunny boiler bits?

My daughter is 7 and loves the show too, that is partly why I watch it so I can talk to her about what she is seeing.
I think it is great because she really sees the need to watch what you eat and the need to exercise to stay healthy.

She LOVES the red team too, she always goes for the girls (we watch Survivor together too) so she loves red because Michelle trains the red team. And yes! her favourite is Sheridan!! She is certainly not my favourite.

LOL!! I agree!
The red team aren't as likeable as the blue team but they are great entertainment value...

I'm going to predict Nicole leaving. If I'm right, then I'm torn. On one hand, she's boring and brings no drama or conflict, on the other, it's going to suck if she's not in the house when her sister gets there.

I'd probably like to see nicola go. She's boring and doesn't even have a twin in America to liven up her story. Is she even there?

My daughter talks about healthy eating and exercise too. She is always talking to me about how she eats veggies and those are soooooo good for you. I like that part of the show.

Daughter goes for the girls too. Now that Sheridan is gone, she asked me the names of all the girls on the Red Team (she forgot Nicole's name). So her faves are Cosi, Nicola and Nicole. She doesn't like Garry very much, or at least, that is what she said yesterday. She changes her mind a bit on who she likes and doesn't like.

I like sharing the show with her, and she likes it too. It sounds like you have some Mum-Daughter time happening at 7pm at your house too.
