Arrrrrrrggggggggggggggggghhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh!!!
Seriously, though, what kinda shit was that? ANTM's clips show usually airs right before the finale, reviewing the entire (menstrual) cycle, like it should. Note to Tyra: we aren't the models! Our brains actually have the capacity to follow this shit without having to flash back halfway through the cycle.
The worst thing is, though, that with the previously un-aired footage, I should have been able to whip up a recap real quick like. And I would have, if only Carly didn't force all that Moet down my throat last night. I don't know about anybody else, but I love bubbles.
So, sorry for the non-post. We'll see what I can drum up for tomorrow, given the rehashed source material.
But even before I knew that last night's show was going to be a non-show, I had planned on making the following announcement: From now on, ANTM recaps will be posted on Fridays. I love having something to offer the next day, and riding the wave inside the water cooler, but it's almost impossible to do so while keeping my sanity. When I cram all of the work into one night, I'm dead for two days. I know that all this shit seems totally tossed off, and it probably shouldn't have me up till 6 a.m., but the fact is that gathering screenshots, sound bites and whatever semblance of cleverness I can muster is an all-night process. So, sorry guys, it's just the way it's gotta be. If someone wants to pay me for this shit, however, I'll reconsider.
By the way: Jayla is such a bitch.




That's right! Like we was talking about the other day - - blogging can be a bitch. We don't get paid for our services. Hell I may not post today my damn self.

Hi there, I've become a recent devotee of your site, and your ATNM re-caps are fantastic, well worth waiting for! You take however long to need to create the magic darlin'...

I personally hate the clip shows whenever they air, mid-season, end-of-season, whatever. But at least it freed up my Wednesday evening for once, for I am a slave to ANTM.

i kinda like jayla's bitchiness. i mean, i would be a bitch too if i had been brought up jehova's witness. that's like taking the power away from jett travolta to go on a rampage when he turns 16.

Rich, you take until 2015 if you need to.

I think we can blame last night's clip show on that short haired bitch who quit!
I already forgot her name. IT'S ALL HER FAULT AND TYRA IS PUNISHING US FOR IT!

I think Gayest Neil is right and what that means is that we have ANOTHER one of these bitches to look forward to before the cycle ends and it's time to replace the tampon. Sucks 'cause I was really hoping for a super-surprise-no-elimination episode.

Was this mid-cycle clip show perhaps necessitated by Cassandra and Sarah both getting cut in the same show? As in they had an extra week to fill up?
I adore you!

Y'know, I actually kinda like Lisa now that I watched the clip show. She so crazy! Plus, I don't really see anything wrong with downing a bottle of Jacob's Crick in an evening. Maybe I, too, am an alcoholic bitch. Plus, this way we got to see that Coryn said sorry and all was well that ended well. However, my hatred for Jayla continues to burn like the white-hot napalm of the sun.

That woman is completely, utterly insane (in the membrane). In the brain! Got no brain. She's insane.

word to the bubbly!
I had some last night as well and I must say, watching ANTM whist high on bubbly is the best thing in the world.
Thanks for all the recaps. I was wondering how you manage to do all of that for the next day. Yes, please save your sanity because we love and need you.
Posted by: Cyn | November 03, 2005 at 02:26 PM
I love you. Take as long as you need.
I can't figure out the reasoning behind the Jayla-heavy focus of the recap. Like we really want to see more of her?
Posted by: S | November 03, 2005 at 02:28 PM
take as long as you need. it will be worth the wait.

I like this post! The screen caps of trading spouses are priceless. On the fox website I was watching a clip of her going crazy, its the best crazy moment since tyra lost it with tiffany.
Last night while i was watching Top Model I kept replaying Jayla's psycho rant and I thought to myself if only I had that creepy mp3, you read my mind! Thanks Rich!

In the immortal words of the S.O.S. Band...take your time and do it right. Blogging can be very taxing. Glad that last night's show wasn't an elimination show because I missed it anyway.
Posted by: Butta | November 03, 2005 at 03:05 PM
last nite's fiasco was a Jontue-scented love letter to lisa and kim. thoughts?
i think jayla IS mister bojangles, in disguise. they should get a cat.
and rich, you take all the time you need. you had me at "holla".
Posted by: buzz | November 03, 2005 at 03:57 PM
jayla needs to take her big ass ugly ears and fall off a cliff.
Lisa is one crazy bitch. It's a love/hate relationship with me and her.
I still think she's ugly though.
this season is kind of boring. It's pissing me off.
Posted by: megan | November 03, 2005 at 04:17 PM
although i too was highly dissapointed by antm's blahzey blah clip show, i have to say that trading spouses definitely filled the void...that woman is definitely well on her way to crazy town.
Posted by: what would jayla do | November 03, 2005 at 07:20 PM
Rich, i love ur ANTM recaps....the little sound files are funny and Bre rules! could you please put a sound clip or bre saying 'my weave's sweating...i gotta go" and a video clip and sound clip or lisa doing the uhhhhhhhh uh uh uhhhhhhhhhh dance....thank you :)

You take however long you want! It's well worth the wait!
I don't care what anybody says.. I like Jayla's bitchiness. It's got personality. Most everybody in the house now has some sort of personality about them. Especially Lisa, Jayla, Kim and Bre (who is LOVE itself incarnated into one fantastically beautiful girl). Sometimes Bre's personality is hidden.. (She's so geniune and quirky..) But she definately has more of it than Nicole or Nik.. Who are just.. dull.. And boring. At least bitches, drunks and lesbians are entertaining.
Posted by: Kyrie | November 04, 2005 at 01:26 AM
Watching top model last night I was thinking the exact same thing about Jayla, bitch bitch bitch. She's my boyfriend's fave, heh maybe that's why he's with me.
Posted by: Nikki | November 04, 2005 at 06:17 AM
Jayla passed bitch a while ago... now she is just pathetic.
Posted by: duane | November 04, 2005 at 01:56 PM
Jayla is an ugly skank bitch. She looks like a small rodent animal. The only really pretty girls in this competition were Kyle and Nicole. I don't even get how minger Nik got into the final two. She had bubble eyes, a huge nose, retarded lips and skanky hair. Bre was much prettier.
