[Anonymous]

YOU GUYS NEED TO CHILL!!! Who gives a damn where hes from he lives in South Carolina now. Get over it...hes a great guy, possibly the only normal, sane, empathetic one on this show filled with a bunch of narcissistic arrogant snobs.

You make it sound like its a crime to want to improve yourself. Get over it. Geez.

Yeah, I wasn't impressed by him at all. That was awful when he joked to his one-night-stand about her "walk of shame" home. I guess it's a minor point when it was obviously one-nighter, but wouldn't it be the gentlemanly thing to do to at least walk her home? I know I'm an old fart, but these women must have no self-esteem.

Yeah, I like Craig. He's got potential and seems sane. He'd probably be happy and do well with a culinary career, but he feels pressure to go into law, which obviously bores him to death. Bit of a lost soul.

Shep is the poster boy for wasted potential, and he knows it. That's why he's so obnoxious toward Craig. It's easier than dealing with his own mess. Shep has a really cold side, but has some redeeming qualities, which you notice when he's genuinely horrified by the nastiness of people like Landon.

I think Landon's mother came across as a walking personality disorder when she was on in an earlier season, and Landon is an unpleasant hot mess with a mean streak, as a result of that. Plus she's dimwitted, which isn't entertaining.

I'm kind of fascinated by Whitney, and wish he were on more.

Whitney's mother used to be interesting, as she's a type of shark you like to watch from a safe distance, but now she just sits there pickling herself to death, so their little scenes together are terribly dull and stilted.

Shep actually strikes me as a smart dilettante, like someone who would be a literature professor at somewhere like UVA or Ole Miss if he had applied himself academically.

It's easy to forget that Shep and the others actually do have jobs - they are TV personalities!

+1...he is surprisingly articulate and pretty witty. That is wasted potential if I've ever seen it.

He seems pretty well read and witty. He's totally the southern lit professor type who would flirt with the undergrads taking his Faulkner seminar.

He owns several bars too.

Shep to his credit he seems intelligent but is is a real first class jerk. It is so obvious that he's insanely jealous of Craig for his stable relationship with a pretty nice girl and Craigs Better looks, not to mention he is way more decent.

I cannot stand Landon!

I do really like Snowden. I've read that her baby is doing really well. She's an amazing person and what a beautiful baby.

I'm almost surprised at my revulsion for Landon. I think she did tell those guys that she "hangs around with billionaires, not millionaires." I noticed her reaction to Shep telling her that was very similar to the way she reacts when she's been caught at other stuff--like her whole unholy 'best friends relationship" with Thomas. I think she lies a lot.

I 1000% agree. Same reaction as to when she claimed she invited Katherine to Shep's birthday party. She is not cute enough, or young enough, to pull off the cutest little girl routine anymore.

I wonder if she really had that conversation with the yacht people! She was reminding me a little of Sonja from RHNY with those "interns" (free labor??)

LMAO - Yes with the interns! What the hell is that about? Can I get interns to work around my house? Maybe some type of life skills training for UMD students?

Is it that or is she really just incredibly stupid/flighty, etc?

I don't know if she is smart enough to come up with these schemes. I don't think she can think any further than where she is getting her next glass of wine.
