Beauty and the Geek goes down the drain

I know I didn't write about the show last week, but it's becoming agonizing.

Last week, the group went to Big Bear, left, and had a sled building competition where the object was to build it, use it and cross a finish line first. Tommy and Amanda won and Mike told the other four couples that they each got one vote on who to send home. If there was a tie, Tommy and Amanda would break it.

Properly dramatic, each couple voted for another and it became a four-way tie. Tommy and Amanda chose to send Jason and Kristina home. Everyone cried. Boo hoo.

Kristina cried a lot and kept saying she was happy. There might be some psychiatric visits in her future.

On to this week where the geeks had to makeover a geeky girl and the ladies had to work on some plumbing issues.

The geeks all did a good job with the makeovers. Tommy and Chris, right, did amazing jobs with theirs and I was torn as to which one was better. Matt did alright, but I think he went too conservative. Joe sucked big time. He flirted the whole time with the girl and someone explain to me why that boy can NOT open his eyes when he talks. It's annoying.

Chris won and Cara felt better about going into her challenge while Leticia comforted Matt on his loss.

The girls had to unclog a tub, stop a toilet from running and save a ring from a sink so they could wash it off and display it as the winner. I'm not recapping this in detail. Basically all the beauties were still on the tub when Leticia won.

Elimination was Tara and Joe and Tommy and Amanda. It was close, but Joe and Tara went home. I'm sorry to see her go, but I'm so grateful he's gone. I didn't see a huge improvement with him and if he's that stubborn I'm not sure why he signed up for the show. And I think Tara was always a sweet natured girl so I'm not sure if she changed either.

Next week is the season (series?) finale. I can barely contain my excitement. The show's ending! The show's ending!

Don't get me wrong. I used to be a fan. If they bring back the old style with real people, I'm all for it, but this season was awful and needs to be buried in memories sooner rather than later.

They're bringing back the eliminated contestants for one night. I wonder what's going to happen when Tommy, right, and Amber see each other again, but why hasn't someone told him about what she said behind his back? Claws, people! Pull them out so I can at least be slightly entertained by the stupidity.
