    Thanks. Yeah, Cliff made you like him one second and think he was a slimeball the next. And even if you thought you knew which was which, you weren't really sure because his personality was that of a chameleon. He plays the role of "mysterious" well.

    Why and how do networks wind up with the same show, but with different names? Two networks are coming out with shows based on contestants' ability to get the lyrics right to a song.

    I was beginning to think I was the only one watching that show. Literally. I really enjoyed Leslie Jordan as Jessie Jo; he brought an air of relaxation to the overly tense show. Even though his horrible lip-synching at the drag show was avert-your-eyes bad.

    Agreed on the lip-synch effort. Wretched. But the scene in the dressing room minutes earlier, when Cliff tries to talk to Nikki but Jessie Jo intervenes, was priceless. The way Jessie Jo prevented Cliff from talking to Nikki, then calling upon "the ladies" to back him up by forming the wall ... the tenseness of the moment, and the look in Jessie Jo's eyes of "fuck you, little boy, you ain't gonna fuck with that little girl's emotions anymore," was as palpable as any scene in any episode.

    I TIVOd the first Hidden Palms but forgot to watch it and it was erased.

    Judging by how the CW buried the show and aired the finale on JULY FREAKING FOURTH, I'm going to presume X and CI were the only people in America watching it. Sorry dudes.

    It probably means that FOX ripped off another network again, like it did with "Wifeswap"

    BYH,

    I can not believe that the person with the most musical knowledge of anyone on this board...anyone, is not looking forward to the opportunity to mock people who don't know the words to songs that will most likely be right in your wheelhouse. You and I are, I believe, of similar age and i set a season pass for both those bad boys. My funnny little honey and I are looking forward to just treating these idiots with the disdain that they deserve. And I thought you would be right there as well.

    Not angry...Just disappointed ;)

    No apology needed. I got in on the ground floor; had to take the elevator to the top. And when you're stuck in confined, sweaty places with Amber Heard, it's best to enjoy the ride.
