I guess I can't really blame FOX. After 35 million people watched the grand finale of Joe Millionaire with its fairy-tale ending, I can see how the executives felt they could wring a little more mileage out of this surprise hit. What could be more appropriate than to pull a Survivor-like reunion show immediately to capitalize on the immense popularity? Considering the "faux finale" that sucked in so many viewers two weeks ago, it should have come as no suprise.
This wasn't too bad of a show - the reminiscing with all the other hopefuls was fun, and hearing some of the new comments was insightful - Melissa was still the right hand woman for Sarah, and Mojo was somewhat peeved about the reactions to her puzzle and poems. The search for "Joe" was mildly entertaining, and the segment with the butler, Paul Hogan, is priceless.
But then having Evan and Zora talk about their lives after the taping and during the broadcast in separate rooms? Snoresville. Nothing we haven't heard before from reality contestants getting their 15 minutes.
Now the moment we have all been waiting for - the reunion after 3 months. Will they announce their engagement? Will they make out? Will we get Zora to give us a Sarah gulp?
"What if we just hung out?" suggests Zora. "We haven't had a beer. Just with no camera, and hung out. That would be nice."
"Now it's time for us to see if we can kind of cultivate a relationship outside of the show," Marriott replies.
