ABC, The Mole
No Comments
This may be the last season of the Mole but at least it was entertaining and brought a few shocks along the way. After a few short clips from past player, well mostly useless Bobby, the winner of the $420,000 was crowned. Mark become the fifth winner of the Mole and he deserves every bit of it. He played the best game, in my eyes, as he took countless notes and didn’t get caught up in too much drama.
When Mark was revealed as the winner it was then time to reveal who was the Mole. With it being between Craig and Nicole I was still somewhat stumped but hoped it was my pick who I mentioned last week: Craig. In fact the Mole WAS Craig and I was glad to finally have been right! Several players knew it was Craig towards the end, Paul and Nicole actually tied in the second to last execution. Since both knew Craig was the Mole, Paul’s slower time of taking the quiz sent him packing and put Nicole into the finals.
Some other interesting things from the finale were how many times Mark almost went home. He didn’t start using Craig as the Mole until the final quiz where he got 17/20 questions right over Nicole’s 13/20. Mark actually would have gone home if Victoria didn’t miss click so it shows just how important the quizzes and timing are in the game of the Mole. Some other interesting things were about Craig and how he pulled off some sabotages. In most of the challenge he threw some type of wrench into the mix. For instance he purposely talked after the lugeing mission and purposely dropped the bag in the first. Although he did have to sabotage a lot, Craig’s trip to the hospital for hypothermia was real. That probably scared the producers a bit, wonder what would have happened had their Mole had to drop out of the game?
Overall the Mole, which may never air a new season, was a great summer show that brought back the original format. It didn’t go over in the ratings as well as the first two did but I loved it and I think the die hard fans did as well. It was nice to see a return, if he comes back again I’ll surely watch and hope its as good as this season was!

CBS, Greatest American Dog
1 Comment
The Greatest American Dog is still impressing me as a show about dogs is becoming one of the most heart warming yet dramatic reality show in a long time. Last week Elvis and his owner David were sent to the Dog House and lucky they were. The first night the two moved back into the house Elvis got into a fight with Tillman, setting a few people off. David didn’t want to deal with the drama so he moved back into the Dog House for the night. He avoided the drama for a bit but the next day Ron let him know he couldn’t stay in his room if their two dogs would fight, making David on the bad list for a few people.
After that little tiff it was time for the next Dog Bone challenge. Once again the winner would get a lavish bedroom and choose someone to put into the Dog House. For the challenge the dogs and their owners would have to go through several obedience challenges. The dog(s) who don’t finish within the allotted time would be out for that round. The last dog remaining would win the Dog Bone room for them and their owner and win the challenge. When the challenge began Elvis and David ended up being the first out. No surprise there. As the challenge continued everyone dropped out one by one and it came down to Travis/Presley and Laura/Preston. The final challenge was to be the first to turn left, then right. Travis and Presley were the first to finish and gave the youngest dog there the win. Travis then had to choose someone to spend time in the Dog House and he chose JD. Everyone feels that JD is a threat so they were happy with the decision.
Following the Dog Bone challenge it seemed like Bill and his dog Star were missing home. He’s the oldest guy there and he’d surely miss his family but he’s glad he’s there with star as he’s that close with his dog. Before they went to bed Bill told Ron that Star likes to find snakes and brings them into his house. The following morning Star did just that and got herself into a bit of trouble. Bill heard her yelp in the yard and ran to her rescue. Star was bleeding pretty bad and after a trip to the Emergency Vet we found out she got into a fight with a cat or maybe got caught in a wire. Everyone was worried as they weren’t sure what was going on and realized just how much they would be upset if their dogs got hurt.
Later on it was time for the Best of Show preparation and this weeks challenge was “Pettiquite”. Three simple actions were going to be done but during the challenge the dogs would have distractions. Unlike last week the 11 players were split into two random teams. Group one was JD, Elan, Travis, Beth Joy and Laura. Their “troublesome dog” was Kenji who was basically continouosly yelled at by Elan. Nobody agreed with how she handled her dog and felt it could screw them up as well. Group Two consisted of battling dogs with Ron, David, Teresa, Bill, Lori and Brandi. Their trouble was David and Elvis who seemed out of control. He continued to run rampant and everyone was scared he’d bite again.
At the Best of Show Group Two goes first. Everyone does really well but there are a few problems here and there. The first challenge was to walk out and “heel”. The only dog to do somewhat poorly was Brandi’s, who was in the bottom three last week. Beacon wanted to stray a bit but got back on course. For the second part the dogs were put food in front of them that they loved. Although Tillman wanted to so badly eat the steak, none of the dogs gave in and did very well. The last challenge was to stay. The dogs had to sit at the table while their owners walked around the table. None of the dogs budged in group two and continued to do well.
The first group then came out and had a few stumbles. Everyone did well with the heel but the eating part had some issues. The only problem was really with Elan and Kenji as she basically barked at her dog. Every other “sound” out of her mouth was “ehh” and “stop”. I mean she yelled at her dog before the food even hit the table! None of the others ate and none of the others moved while the owners walked around as well. Once again Kenji screwed up though as right before the challenge was over Kenji jumped down off the table, making it pretty obvious would would leave. When it was time for judging Elan and Beth Joy had the worst words for them. Obviously they weren’t happy with Elan for yelling but Beth Joey and BellaStarlet were something totally different. The judges didn’t like how Beth Joy put Bella in a dress. It really had nothing to with Bella’s act but rather the choise Beth Joy made to put her in a dress.
When all the teams returned it was time to name Best of Show. The judges chose Bill and Star, who luckily recovered, to be the best and it was great to see the team bounce back after much misfortune! For the bottom three the judges chose David/Elvis, Elan/Kenji and Beth Joy/BellaStarlet. As the judges gave their critique Beth Joy freaked out. She was made they didn’t like the idea about Bella being a dress and brought up several reasons. But the judges, who weren’t happy with the freak out, chose Kenji and Elan as well since she acted so badly during the actual part of the challenge. I think they made a great move, for good TV sake, since Beth Joy is certified crazy!

Celebrity Circus, NBC
1 Comment
Celebrity Circus has had a rather interesting run as its had both good and bad weeds. I must say it was at least somewhat entertaining but could never be as good as Dancing With The Stars. Tonight the winner will be revealed between Stacey, Wee Man and Antonio who will take home a prize which we never really were told what. Although the reveal was rather simple all the celebrities were back to perform one last time.
Blu, who was out first, sang her famous song instead of doing the stunts which she really sucked out. Good for her I guess but apparently she didn’t care enough to even try. Janet left the show rather early and I almost forgot she was even on it. Tonight she performed with Vladimir on the swinging thing. It was pretty good as she jumped into the air only to be caught mid fall. I don’t remember if she did this during the show but if not she should have as she did it really well!
Christopher Knight then came onto the set and let everyone know how he enjoyed the experience. He wasn’t able to do any stunts or perform though as his arm is still healing after breaking twice in only a short few weeks. He was good while he was on and he went out in a very sad way. Last up of those who went home pre-finale was Rachel Hunter. She performed the first act she ever did and did it rather well. I must say I was a fan of Rachel throughout the show and although she may not have been the most athletic she was the most fun to watch!
For their final performances ever in the Circus the three finalists performed together. Wee Man did his balancing act with Vladimir. Stacey did her flying hula hoop act while Antonio did a flaying st rapes act. It was nice to see them all working together to perform and I must say they all did well. Following the act the three was narrowed down to two with Wee Man being the one to take the fall. This left either Stacey Dash or Antonio Sabato Jr as the winner but we had to wait to see. Wee Man let everyone know he was there to have fun and he sure did just that.
The entire night and competition culminated here as it was time to crown the winner of Celebrity Circus. Both Stacey and Antonio did a great job throughout the season but Stacey seemed to be a step above throughout her entire run. Although Stacey had the better performances throughout Antonio’s perfect 10 last week from the judges was hard to beat and he was crowned the winner of the Celebrity Circus. I’m not sure if there will be another one but if there is you’ll know I’ll be watching and covering it right here at Reality Rehash!
So what do you think of Antonio winning? Leave a comment and let us know!

Paradise Hotel 2
5 Comments
After several weeks, several new guests and several twists and turns, Paradise Hotel 2 finally comes to a close. Tonight the final two couples of TD/Ryan and Stephanie/Zack faced off against the seven judges of Paradise to crown the winner. It all started off with a lengthy recap showing last weeks drama and how all four of those left in the finales were targeted and argued with someone. The next morning Stephanie and TD realized their actions were stupid and once again became friends. It seems this happened throughout the whole season once the hangover wore off.
The seven judges then convened to question the two couples and to see how they should vote. Mike and Krista both targeted TD as they blamed her for their demise the night before. Both got an answer they didn’t expect and that was TD apologizing and basically saying she didn’t push Ryan to vote them out but he agreed with her that was the move to make. James’ comment got a few jaws to drop as he asked Steph if she was “sleeping her way to the top” since she “crushed” with both finalists: Ryan and Zack. The said she didn’t but it just seemed to end up that way. Myrna’s question once again brought up Zack’s mention of why he would be mean to her. He told her it was done to make sure people didn’t believe the two were together. He said they all hated her so he had to hate her to “fit it”, she didn’t like that too much.
The four were then given the chance to say one final statement to all voters. Zack was first and let them all know that he was loyal to everyone he gave his word to and everyone that gave their word was loyal to him. Stephanie was up first and gave a really good reason why people should vote for her and Zack. She let each of them know what she will take back with her and how they changed her since she entered the hotel. TD was next and gave a very tear filled speech as to why she played the game the way she did. She was right as she shouldn’t feel guilty that she is in the finals and that she shouldn’t feel guilty for speaking her mind and I think some of the judges were swayed by this. Ryan was last to go and actually had something to say. He only spoke to Krista and Mike, the two he hurt the most, and let them know he is sorry. He wasn’t asking for their vote but only asking them to forgive him.
That night it was then time to crown the winner and that the judges did. Each were asked to pick the couple they want to see win the grand prize and in a close vote of 4 - 3, Zack and Stephanie were crowned the winners of Paradise Hotel 2. Like the previous season the win came with a twist as TD and Ryan were given the power to crown only one winner between Stephanie and Zack. That winner would receive an envelope containing the prize. Although it seemed they would pick Stephanie, both decided to give Zack the title of winner of Paradise Hotel. He was then shocked with another twist that allowed him to split the money between himself and two others in any amount he chose. He was given $200,000 to either keep or he could split it between one or two other people from the judges and the other final players.
After some deliberation Zack made his chose and decided to split his prize money between both TD and Stephanie. He gave TD $20,000 and then split the remaining between himself and Stephanie evenly. This gave both Stephanie and Zack $90,000 each and also gave them the share in the win. That concludes Paradise Hotel 2 and the drama that came along with it. I was kind of surprised to see Zack win after coming back into the game for a third time and then so generously splitting his money. It was a great run for the show and hopefully it will be back for a third season. If you aren’t done with Paradise Hotel 2 yet you can catch the reunion on Fox Reality. Once I see it I’ll be sure to rehash all that went down!
Now that the shows over and Zack won the game what do you all think? Leave a comment and discuss if Zack deserved to win and if his split was right.
