Are you CFK on the TV Fun Spot with these below predictions on the bottom of your posts?'Fraid so, though I'm sure I'm not the only one with those favourites (and I've changed the vague descriptions to names and pod-numbers now).

The 7th commercial is interesting with all the pod pairings. They show people in different pods then they've shown before. They show 5 groups of 2 and a new person that I don't recogize from any of the other commercials. There are 14 seconds of contestants, 1 second of Val, and 15 seconds promotional. Pod #5 - 17.3% - Teensy Asian girl Pod #9 - 13.2% - White guy with mohawk, goatee, lots of tattoos and a skull and crossbones shirt.
Pod #4 - 10.4% - White guy with goatee Pod #1 - 9.9% - White girl with red hair and really blue eyes
Pod #6 - 8.4% - White guy with buzz cut and head band Pod #3 - 6.7% - White girl (dirty blonde, maybe redish blonde)
Pod #3 - 6.5% - Big, frizzy, blonde woman. Pod #7 - 5.5% - Guy I thought could be Italian, but now I'm not sure. Maybe Persian? Anyone else know? |

Then they have to dig through a million packing peanuts looking for a clue about a key. They even have to do a test with handcuffs on. That was hilarious. |

I think the signature ep was the early 1.0 one where they had to keep rewatching the slideshow of the disturbing images. I forget what they had to do with
them, but that's when I fell in love with this show.
Meanwhile, apparently FRC's PR department released this to the media before releasing it to the public. http://www.foxflash.com/d...main/page?aID=8z2z0z6z1z5 Yup. The cast announcement!

The video they had to watch was 20 minutes long and they had to solve a math problem: Number of building collapses x Number of octopus + Number of rats - Number of times the boy is splashed + Number of times there is a burning doll x Number of times meat is drilled. 4 * 3 + 12 - 4 + 8 * 6 = 168 18 days, 2 hours, and 24 minutes to go. WoooooooooooooooooHoooooooooooooooooo

Karrie/Maureen/RobRob F3 plz.
Personally I love "From Dusk Till Dominoes" and "Don't Let This Happen To You". Deenaownage in the domino test and the epic 7/9 drink-off, and then Nikkiownage in the horrific movie and the insane grump rope treatment (even if it did send my beloved Deena packing :< ). I think "Bed of Nails" is the first season ep with #8 Danielle loving the horror movie and #1 winning with popcorn. |

Building on SolitaryFreak's singularly impressive body of work, here's how the numbers and pods shake out:
No. 1 - 9.9% - "White girl with red hair and really blue eyes": Jennifer Korbin (Los Angeles, CA) is a paralegal and model. The single mother of one considers herself a big tomboy despite her feminine appearance.
No. 2 - 9.1% - "Black guy": Ceon Murray (Los Angeles, CA) is a business owner who grew up in Trinidad & Tobago and lived without running water, telephones or television until he moved to the U.S. at 14 years old.
No. 3A - 6.5% - "Big, frizzy, blonde woman": Jennifer Otenti (Cape Cod, MA,) is a web designer from who projects a tough as nails attitude, but cries easily. She is a former Goth, who loves reptiles and owned 10 snakes at one point.
No. 3B - 6.7% - "White girl (dirty blonde, maybe redish blonde)" Katie Kaufman (Orange County, CA) is a bubbly blonde, aspiring actress who currently nannies and works at a health club. She is a free-spirit, but also has a competitive side from 13 years of playing soccer.
No. 4 - 10.4% - "White guy with goatee": Robert "RobRob" Hakel (Maple Grove, MN) is a software developer, who is a self-described workaholic and perfectionist. He is a huge fan of "Solitary" and actually built his own pod to train in at home.
No. 5 - 17.3% - "Teensy Asian chick": Maureen Francisco (Federal Way, WA) is a business development advisor for real estate professionals and volunteers as media director for Child United. Maureen is also an experience junkie and former TV reporter.
No. 6 - 8.4% - "White guy with buzz cut and head band": Dirrick "Trizz" Fretz (Valencia, CA) is a pharmacy cashier, who hates technology and loves the idea of "Man vs. Machine." He is a giant kid who enjoys playing with toys and action figures.
No. 7 - 5.5% - "Guy I thought could be Italian, but now I'm not sure. Maybe Persian? Anyone else know?": Andrew Sabat (San Diego, CA) attends San Diego State University and is a student brand manager for Red Bull. He is fiercely competitive, but also finds pain intimidating.
No. 8 - 13% - "Black girl": Karrie McNeal (Inglewood, CA) is a child care provider who credits growing up in the city of Inglewood with enabling her to become confident in herself and her abilities. She lost her husband to Leukemia three years ago, while he was in prison.
No. 9 - 13.2% - "White guy with mohawk, goatee, lots of tattoos and a skull and crossbones shirt": J Scott (Los Angeles, CA) is a bouncer, who loves clowns, eating glass and fire-breathing. While he has a soft side, J also has a hot temper and his biggest fear is old people. ***** Assorted thoughts: I guess the "10th" player is one of the two SolitaryFreak spotted in Pod 3.
I recommend Googling No. 1 with safe search off. Looks to be a good cast yet again. Nothing but nothing will ever top 2.0's #3 the masochist, however.

I practiced that for Solitary 3.0 with Dave's Insanity Sause and I got so sick the next day I was puking my guts out and had to leave work and I could only sleep in the bathtub. It actually felt like I had appendicitis or something. Then my brother found the Jolokia pepper which is one million scoville units, but I took it easy on that hot bastard. :-) |

And I look forward to seeing!
I guess that's true on the Californians of 1.0, but at least two were serious transplants -- my former Mrs. P'ha-to-be Taralee the Lingerie Bowl Canadian and Florin the writer from Romania. I get it that FRC doesn't have the resources to cast as nationally as the CBS RTV shows, but you'd think they could do better than this. I always wonder how that nice marathon-running mommy from Virginia wound up on 2.0. |

Wow, this is a great day for Solitary 3.0. Thank you Piranhahaha! I think J Scott looks/sounds pretty tough. But I guess it depends a lot on the tests and treatments. I thought the very first episode of the first season was a great start. No sleep for 2 days and when they finally get to sleep, they get woke up by blaring alarms over and over for hours. And there was no test to get out of the very first treatment. Plus none of these guys knew what they were getting into.
