Subbing -- and, awesome!

Although, I don't care much for the twist this year. I'll spoiler tag it in case people aren't aware of it yet.

At least in the beginning, the beauties and geeks compete against each other, instead of in teams of two. That seems to get way too far away from the concept of the show (beauties and geeks learning from each other). I hope it doesn't last that way for very long.

I wonder if Jenny Lee and Nate will be back again to introduce the show...and wonder if they're still friends....hope so, they were so cute together.

I have to admit, I hope to read someday that they've tied the knot. That's the romantic in me.

When he jumped out that window to say goodbye to her....:swoon: And they were so happy to see each other again. You can tell they really enjoy each other.

But back to this season..don't know that I'll be watching it, we'll see.

I don't think making the beauties ugly really leveled the playing field. They still have a lifetime of confidence and experience to build getting numbers off of, while the guys didn't. And, IMO, a guy is more likely to give out his number than a girl. So the contest was still slated in the girls favor.

I didn't care for the new format much either, and it looks like that's how it will be the rest of the season.

I was okay with who went home, though. The gamer-geek with the long hair is my favorite, but I can't remember his name (of course).

I agree with that. Plus, girls are way more likely to give a phone number out, but when they checked to be sure it was a real number, I knew the beauties had won it.

Were Nate and JennyLee on at all?
Nope, although they might have been in the brief montage of past contestants they showed during the intro of the show.

I'm so glad that they are playing Beauty AND the Geek, and not Beauties VS. the Geeks anymore.

But...... wow, I'm sad that Jim left. He was by far my favorite geek. I think almost every guy I was friends with in college (except my gay friends) looked like him. I saw so much heart and potential in him, especially last night when he asked his partner to kiss him. I really wanted to see his makeover and I'm totally bummed that he missed it by one week. :(
