Whats a tool??

NEWAYS, that ending was not surprising, shocking or anything fox said it would be. It was sappy, gay, and worst of all happy. The twist was pretty stupid. It would of been better if the girls were trans or something. Or the butler was actually a girl and the girls were all in love with him....or something..

The guy tells the girl that he isn\'t a millionaire. The girl doesn\'t cry or anything. He gives her a ring. They hug and kiss. The butler gives them a check for 50 million. Stupid, stupid, stupid.

50 million?!?!!? No way. Fox isn\'t that rich. Its only one I\'m sure.

I think it was 50 million...or was it?
I was so pissed off that I wasted 2 hours of my life that I just switched the channel and let my mom watch her novelas.

Not that I watched the show or anything.

It was one mil for both of them. And, they still have to pay taxes.

I think Fox could have ponied up a little more.

it was 500 grand a piece and after taxes that will leave them about 250-300 grand each.

They did an alright job at it.  Obviously last weeks rediculous joke of a show was to allow production enough time to do this show.  They had to get all of the interviews and put it all together.
They did a good job, but I think if they realized how much money this show would be worth to Fox they would have given them 5 million.  They had no clue when they shot this show it would be this huge for the network.

That\'s what I meant. They had to split the cash. I still think Fox could have come up with a Mil each.

Then again, if I was running Fox I would have given them nothing.

Oh whatever...this show was the guilty pleasure of every American.  I mean I even see it in these posts of those of you who saw last weeks episode and still! after being betrayed! came back for more!  I will stand proudly and say that I loved the ending and the whole show.  I mean a FOX show, with a moral?  How could you not?

Fox is a very very cheap network.  And this show could be just as much of a failure as many other Fox shows are.  Turned out it was huge and they had it on for two nights a week.

Granted the second night was against Friends and it essentially was just free programming so why not.

Now they are milking it for another night.

I knew it was Zora because Sarah was all over the press.  I\'m glad it came out like that.  I told my wife that he likes Zora, but Sarah gives good head.  What guy wouldn\'t have done the same thing?

I\'ve only seen a couple episodes, including this one.  That guy is such a big, dumb, clumsy, inarticulate lug.  I don\'t understand what any of those chicks saw in him.  He was completely tongue tied in both of his final meetings with Zora and Sarah.  God I was cringing.  I don\'t consider myself any kind of smooth operator, but damn I could have delivered the news with much better style than he did.

He has such poor taste too!  Why did he get rid of the hot asian chick so early?  I\'m talking about the hula hooper, not the vietnamese pediatrician.  :)

He was on Howard Stern the other day.  He\'s not with her.  He just picked her.  I knew from the beggining that was basically what was going to happen.  And I didnt watch one minute of the show.

If I may be so bold as to say that Reality Television sucks in general. It\'s bad enough to see it all day long but then they have to glorify the disfunctionalities of relationships these days to get higher ratings. What next? It can only get worse eh?

I’m right there with you man. I hate what television has become. I have opted to go without cable in my house. I watch about three to four hours of television a year and that includes watching the ball drop on new years. My wife and I watch movies and I play games on the TV we have in the house. Yes, we only have one TV in the house.

FOX is more interested in quick cash than in building a solid dramatic series that will sustain them for a long period of time.  Therefore, we get endless short run reality shows, and they cancel Firefly without giving it sufficient marketing or support.
