"The Superstars" (ABC)

[Bearcata]

So was I. The last thing I needed was a re-airing of The Bachelorette. I just went to ABC's website; it's now showing that The Superstars finale will air on August 4.

That so sucks here I was looking forward to watch it when I got home and then thinking boy did I totally screw up recording the show. Even the online TV Guide and Yahoo TV listings showed that the finale was to be on Tuesday, July 28th, 2009 from 8pm to 9:30pm. Right now ABC so sucks (I can't say it enough). Who cares about a repeat of the Bachelorette. If I could I would so totally cancel that show and the idiot ABC program executives who thought that a rerun of the Bitcholorette would endear then or their channel to Superstar fans. I hope the Bitcholorette gets no love and hope the ABC program executives supply of viagra fails miserably.

I just got worried, because I'm not home and was afraid they were going to air it tonight, instead of last night as advertised. I forgot to leave anything set up to record. I would have been livid if I'd miss the finale all because they had to show the Bachelorette fairytale ending again that'll probably be over by years end and everyone will be saying "Jillian who?" I kept it on the channel for 20 minutes, thinking maybe they were accidentally showing the wrong footage, then thought 'well, maybe Superstars starts at 9:30 and goes until 11'.

I can't believe this show is still on the air. It's the same every.single.season, minus maybe a new whackjob thrown in there. Boy/girl meets 25 girls/boys, makes out with all of them, eliminates them one by one, gets down to the final 2, proposes or gets proposed to, and then they end up breaking up. Get an ending like Melissa/Molly/Jason and maybe that'll draw viewers in. I don't get what was so special about this edition that they had to air it again. Did it not bring in enough viewers on Monday or something? Either way, I was so excited. Thanks for nothing ABC

I'm in complete agreement with the wish for cancelling The Bachelor/Bachelorette and every other dating so-called reality show. I'm also furious with ABC for postponing the finale of The Superstars for this drivel. There are a number of ABC shows I'd rather have seen cancelled than The Unusuals.

On the other hand, I can't hate ABC completely since they're giving me Lost, Castle, and the hopefully good FastFoward and V.

I thought that this season was a bore.

These dating shows are a crock. And it's an even bigger crock that these men/women/whatever crawled out from the Rock of Love bus continually get their own reality shows to try and find true love. I don't even think they're for real, including TB/ette. I kind of miss the days when it seemed like there was one reality show limit per person, but some of these people seem to make a living out of appearing on spin offs. But it gives The Soup good bits to make fun of at least

Got my fix this weekend by watching Battle of the Gridiron Stars! No fluff! Great competitions...AFC vs. NFC. The Manning brothers were on opposite teams. Lots of laughs and good battles and smack-talking! I think I prefer this kind of competiton over "The Superstars"...in fact, I'm pretty sure that this is where the people that put together "The Superstars" got their ideas. I don't think I've ever seen basketball players do a competiton like this. AFC won, by the way, sorry Peyton and friends!

Thank god no more Bachelorette this week! we FINALLY get to see The Superstars Finale! Who wants to bet that T.O. manages to come BACK somehow and win it all?!
No, I think team purple is going to win. I love the way Paige and Bode strategize... I think thats the winning ticket

[Linkers]

I simply cannot stand Terrell Owens and nothing I'm seeing here changes that, but I think model Julia is worse. I cringe when she starts to speak.

You should watch his show on VH1 and it might change your mind. He isnt a bad guy like i use to think he was either.

The way David/Lisa have barely escaped elimination each week and beat out Brandi/Julio, I wouldn't be surprised to see them pull off the ultimate upset and win it all Okay, not really.

I really want Kristi/Maks to win, and I think they deserve it. They've been the strongest team and haven't ever had to go to the obstacle course (considering we saw Maks in the preview at the obstacle course, I wonder how he and Kristi will do since the others have been there before). I think they've done very well, and while there've been a few challenges they weren't as strong in, overall I saw they've nailed the others. Bode/Paige I like, but something about them in the last couple of episodes has rubbed me the wrong way.

I appreciate your point of view, but I watch nothing on VH1 and a Terrell Owens show is not about to change that. Perhaps when he stops criticizing every quarterback he works with and every wide receiver on his team, I'll think about it. Even my son, who always tried to convince me that his talent outweighed his ego trips, has started to change his mind.
