Where were you able to rent this???

I tried to rent it when DH had surgery in October. I tried 3 Blockbusters and several local video stores! Not one of them even purchased the movie to rent out!

I rent all of my DVDs from Netflix. They also carry Survivor and every other tv show that is now on DVD. They also have a thing for a free month for new members. They also have a bigger selction of DVDs than blockbuster. www.netflix.com

well I guess I'm spoiled... I just recorded all the ARs onto my TiVo and then burned them onto DVDs. I loved watching Seasons 1 & 2 final episodes! I think they were the BEST!

Hey! I was wondering if you could do that beacuse we have DVR through comcast. How would I be able to burn them onto DVDs? Would I need to hook up my DVR to a DVD recorder/player? Thanks

Bizarre piece of info for last season watchers.

Remember Kelly from "ron and kelly".

On 48 hours mystery last night---kelly was on--at first I didn't recognize her and was wondering what had happened...they did show a snippet of her from AR and then I knew who she was.

Anywho--it seems a very very close friend of hers was murdered in Napa. Very sad situation. I think it had to have been sometime before her AR appearance--but not much earlier as her friend was murdered on Halloween night of 2004. They didn't find out who the murderer was until this past September (2005). I wondered if any of this played into her behaviors on the show at all. One of the friends of another girl who was murdered (they were roommates sharing a bedroom in a house--a 3rd roommate had her room downstairs and was not harmed physically)---it was the friends husband who did it.

Very sad all around. What I thought was really sweet--Kelly's friend was a beauty queen on the Miss America circuit as Kelly was. I think her name is Lyndsey. Lyndsey only won at the local level--a very well spoken young woman...during her reign, she raised a lot of money to build a home for abused children. Lyndsey's friends and family (Kelly included) decided they wanted to construct "Lyndsey's Home" to offer more shelter to those who come from abused families. Kelly asked Rob and Amber to assist and they helped Kelly with a fundraiser.

Such a sad story--and so interesting to see Kelly in this way and that Romber--do have a good side to them after all.

Back to the regular thread. Sorry for the interuption.

Yup, I saw an interview abt this with Kelly several months ago. Kelly actually looked like a very nice girl, not the uhmmm....., shall we say, "less stable" girl as she appeared on AR.

Very sad abt her friend....

I am watching the old ones on the game show network and I think I want to go through the TV and smack that guy Ian upside the head! What a nasty SOB he is to his wife!! I can't believe she doesn't haul around and punch him in the face at times!! Not that the whiny FLO is much better!

 

[Slacking]

You sound like most fans when TAR3 was airing.

I wasn't a huge fan of how Ian treated Teri, but I liked everything else about them and they were my favorite team. Needless to say, that I (as always) was in the vast minority. Wait until the last couple episodes, most fans who hated Teri/Ian started to warm up to them a bit during the last couple episodes and was eventually seen as the lesser of two "evils." Can't say that people warmed up to Flo, lol.

Ok... I'm watching the latest episode (yay!)... and I have to comment that I am extremely annoyed by the 'sisters'. It seems like everytime they talk, it isn't at any reasonable pitch. I hope they make some personal changes once they view this tape!

Go Linz Family!!!
