They had an hour-long, preview sort of thing on last night. I can't wait until it starts up again. LC and Kristen...let the cat fights begin.

I didn't know that they were having a 2nd season!!! I loved that show too, although it did make me feel poor.
Did LC decide to come back home after her first year of college? Are LC & Kristen still fighting over Stephen? I never thought he was much of a catch. He was a little too into the drama if you ask me! I'll have to try to catch the 1 hour preview show.

I can't wait to see it tonight. I broke down and bought the DVD. Target had this deal if you bought the DVD then you get a free giftcard to Target so I couldn't resist. The DVD is really good and it shows so many extra things on it and LC's new house is so beautiful.
I had a question though, didn't Trey say he was going to New York to attend NYU? Because in the DVD, it shows him being rejected from NYU.

I am going to a LB party tonight (I caught some episodes of the first season but not a regular watcher) so I am hoping to get into it some. I do have a question, though. I saw the ad for the DVD and it said "With Casting Tapes." Is it reality or fake reality??!?! I was/am so confused! :confused:

So, I think I read this somewhere...
Is the "Matt" that Kristen is dating, Matt Lienart (sp?) QB at USC??
funky$meg
07-26-2005, 10:03 AM
Watched the new LB last night with some girlfriends...I'd never seen the show before and thought it was hilarious. It seems completely scripted...all the sudden someone will "ask" how such-and-such person is doing, and the cameras will already be in place if someone "shows up" at someone else's house ;) So I know what you mean, JuliaK
PS- How do I get adopted into one of their families?! I'd love to live it up in their mansions!
Koala_Gurl
07-26-2005, 10:24 AM
I think it seems more scripted, since they have a lot more time to edit it together.
So, I think the dialogue, etc. is "real," they just have a lot more time to piece together the stuff to make it seem less real. Does that make sense??
littlebear
07-26-2005, 12:26 PM
Yep. The Kristen's Matt is the USC quarterback, but I don't think the relationship lasted long. I think they got hooked up because of her LB fame...met at a club or some kind of MTV Hollywood party.
You would think with all of that money that the new chick, Casey, would have better looking hair extensions.
I think Trey is at the Bard College in NY. That's where they showed him leaving from last night.
I don't get what all the fuss is with Jason. He's kinda scruffy looking.
ginastorm
07-26-2005, 12:42 PM
I don't know much about hair extensions, but even I knew that Casey was wearing them last night. She seemed like a nice girl. I want that house she lives in!
I can't believe LC is doing the show again (if the show is indeed "real"). She made a big deal about moving to San Francisco & it sounds like she didn't give college much of a chance. Did anyone else think they kind of glossed over that topic?
I'm not sure if I heard right, but did Jessica say that it was okay for Jason to spend the night? Were her parents out of town? Did you see his face light up when she asked him that?

Not only did his face light up, but he was suddenly more interested in her after that. He is yucky, and she is gettin' played big time.
tinkerbelljenny
07-27-2005, 12:12 AM
Wow, I had no idea that was the Matt that goes to USC.
So, I wonder where Kristen will be going to college next year? And will they have a 3rd season?
The DVD does include casting tapes. I guess LC and Stephen hooked up on Spring Break.

I'm embarrassed to admit that I watch this show. I caught a few of the re-runs at the gym recently (which in turn helped me do a longer cardio workout :D ) and became instantly hooked!
Kristin bugs (even more so now that I know that her Matt is the 'SC Matt - I went to UCLA), Jason is a pig, the Stephen triangle is great!

Ugh! I can't believe the way he treats her and she LETS him. WTF! "Do you want to get dinner?" "Would you like me to drive separate" and he says YES and they DO! Wow...thats all I'm going to say. I feel bad for her but at this point...she is just being so naive.
JenniferEC

Jason needs to be smacked hard. He's a jerk!
Jessica just needs to get a clue. She's a pretty girl so she shouldn't be that desperate.
Can't stand Kristen. What a beyotch.
Like LC and Stephen but I don't want her to settle for seconds, if he is just with her because Kristen is over him.
bensgirl1222
08-01-2005, 07:49 PM
I agree with the whole LC & Stephen thing. I have always thought he goes for LC when Kristin ditches him...not fair.
And yes, Jessica needs to get a clue. I seriously felt embarassed for her in this episode. Ugh! I don't ever remember being so clueless.
bensgirl1222
08-01-2005, 07:50 PM

08-02-2005, 11:39 AM
That poor girl Jessica is completely naive and Jason is totally using her. She agreed to drive her own car to the restaurant when he told her to! I am embarassed for her. We've all made fools of ourselves over some guy, but this is too much.
I am embarassed for her and LC. LC thinks because Stephen is a "friend" he isn't using her, but he is.
I don't not like Kristin, but she seems bitchier this season.

Poor Jessica, just watching her and jason is like a train wreck. I wonder what happened with her and Dieter? Anyone know where Kristen is going to college in the fall?

I do *not* understand what these girls have ever seen in Stephen. He's such a weenie! :rolleyes: He's fine for a friend, but LC could do much, much better.
And I totally agree about Jessica. It's really sad to me that she's letting Jason make a fool out of her. I think she knows he's fooling around on her, but just doesn't want to see it. As much as I usually don't like Kristen, I admire her for being such a good girlfriend and laying it out there for Jessica about Jason's sketchy behavior. :)

I watch LB every now and then, when I catch it.....it's not one of my TIVO'd shows though. I LOVE THE DRAMA! It reminds me so much of high school which I sadly miss right about now. I just wish my only problem in life now was that my best friend who was a guy (that I was in love with - much like LC & Stephen) is now dating my best girl friend! It seemed so important back then!
Even if it's scripted, it's good TV!
I was creeped out watching Stephen & LC last night. They have no chemistry and she is so in love with him. He treats her like a sister.
When a guy likes you, he usually doesn't put you in head locks.
JenniferEC
08-09-2005, 11:08 AM
Rose - I agree with you about Stephen and LC. I wish she'd wisen up and realize he's with her because Kristen moved on. Unfortunately, I think she's just as love hungry as he is and is willing to take seconds. Did they ever say why she didn't go back to San Francisco?
Kristen gets on my nerves. Every once in a while I notice her looking into the camera and it makes me think she's making sure the camera is on her. Sure, she's pretty, but her ego could be brought down a few pegs.
adamseve
08-09-2005, 11:20 AM
Watching Stephen and LC was painful - he looked so bored while she looked so in-love. I wonder if they watch the show.
Kristin has a dangerous power over teenage boys. I couldn't believe Talon drooling over her days after he fed those lines to *I forget the girl's name*.
lawyergirl25
08-09-2005, 11:22 AM
Kristen gets on my nerves too. So it really bugs me that she's right about Jason. I just felt bad for Jessica because I thought Kristen was being deliberately mean in the way she told Jessica about Jason's cheating. That girl bugs me.
Watching Stephen and LC say goodbye last night was painful it was so awkward. You could tell she was dying for him to kiss her goodbye, but he kept teasing and hugging her instead. I didn't understand why he didn't just get in his car the first time he said goodbye - it's like he drew it out for no reason.
LB is really addicting, I gotta say. :)
Koala_Gurl
08-09-2005, 12:24 PM
I agree with you all...Stephen & LC thing is so awkward! But, yep...it is addicting!
I'm so glad that I'm not the only one who likes this show, but last season I found it really hard to hear and so I didn't watch it as much. Where was Stephen going the other night? I was a little confused about that. I'm not a fan of Kristin...never was! I hate the fact that Talan was saying all these sweet things to Taylor and now is going after Kristin...I think it bothers me because I thought he was sincere. Apparently that's not the case.
ginastorm
08-10-2005, 11:32 AM
I thought Talon was sincere too; he definitely fooled me. I don't understand why Taylor is still hanging out with him if she thinks that he is talking behind her back about her to Kristin. Does anyone else think that Kristin went after Talon because he was so smitten with Taylor, her used-to-be friend?
Please, does anyone one know what happened to LC in San Francisco? What made it so horrible? Have they addressed it on the show & I just missed it?
kugrrly
08-10-2005, 11:45 AM
I do not think that they have mentioned why she left SF. Was she going into Fashion Design??
I remember last season her grades were not the best. Maybe she flunked out or could not cut it.
Koala_Gurl
08-10-2005, 11:46 AM
I thought Talan was sincere. Taylor was totally giving off a "bad vibe." I thought. Kinda like she just want to be friends. (Similar to how Stephen acts around LC.)
I don't know that anything specific happened to LC in San Fran...just homesick? Even Kristen "predicted" that she would not last there...
Does anyone else think that Kristin went after Talon because he was so smitten with Taylor, her used-to-be friend?
Haven't they hooked up before? I just assumed LC was homesick, but I am surprised she left because then she would be farther from Stephen.

I'm coming late to the party so I'm hoping you ladies can clue me in on a few things. I watched part of last year and then two episodes of this year. (I dont know if there have been mroe than that.)
What happened between Kristen and Taylor?
Also, when they went off to San Fran, I thought LC and Steven were not together. SI that right? Was he with Kristen? When and why did they break up? I remeber the ugly fight where the were in Mexico(?) and he was giving her a hard time about Sam and calling her a slut, but it's all pretty fuzzy. Recap please!! TIA!

Yeah I didnt realize Kristen and Taylor were used to be friends until today when I was playing around on MTV.com...Whats the story behind them? Anyone know?
I saw where she was saying mean stuff in that store when Taylor was working so went on MTv.com to check out whats up between them but it didnt say much other than they used to be friends.
I think they said that one day Taylor & Kristin were friends and the next day Kristin didn't like her. I think that was the only explanation.

New one here...I agree this show is oddly addicting. I usually have to watch it with the captions though because there is so much background noise and I can't always understand what they are saying...it also could be because I am just getting older and more unhip by the day :rolleyes:
People were asking why LC came back from San Fran...my thoughts were that the lure of being back on a reality TV show were too great. Do you think she knew they were doing a second season before she went to San Fran?
I also could agree with a PP that maybe she flunked out as well.
While I do love this show, I find myself getting entirely too annoyed with the obscene amount of wealth these people have. This past episode, one of Kristen's friends gave her a Tiffany necklace for her bday...did she use one penny of her own money to pay for that necklace?!
Anyway...while I whine about their attitudes and extreme wealth, I still am addicted!

This show is a total guilty pleasure for me!!! I don't even let my husband know I watch it because he would make fun of me.
You would think with all of that money that the new chick, Casey, would have better looking hair extensions.
Gosh I couldn't agree more. I cannot see her as a beauty pageant queen unless it was at the piggly wiggly. I just don't think that is she is that cute!
I still can't figure out if the show is real or not. I saw in US weekly that someone got a hold of LCs computer pics or something and there was different names listed by the pics. But Kristin saws it is all real in a press release and that is why she looks like crap all the time.... But the girl is gorgeous!!!
Did you guys see this weeks??? I can understand how a chick can go after another girls man.... But why is that girls friends trying to to hook her up w/ Jason when it is clear to everyone that he is dating Jessica!!!! That seems so weird to me, that everyone is just like hey lets hook this girl's boyfriend up w/ so and so. Yet Talan is such a bad guy for trying to play the field a little!!
SO MUCH DRAMA>>>>> I LOVE IT!!!!

I think LC is super sweet, and I agree to whoever said it b4 that she can totally do better than Stephen. But on the same note, I think he's too good for Kristen. I did miss this week's episode :( :( But I will catch it before the new one next week.
I'll check in later!

I have found myself curiously addicted to this show, in addition to now watching Supersweet 16 right afterwards. Although, I have to admit that the feeling I get after watching this Monday night is very similar to that nasty hangover feeling I get after mixing my alcohol the night before.
I think there should be a drinking game associated with this show. You know, taking a shot everytime Kristin uses the word hooking up, or Jessica says "swear on our relationship?". LOL.

I can't believe that Jason went went Alex to the formal....HELLO JESSICA! DUMP HIM! Ugh, I feel bad that jessica will be watching this show probably putting her head under a pillow asking why did I act like that. How sad is that?
I was so pissed watching it last night! How stupid can she be and what a jerk he is! Then in the previews for next week, after he talked to his friend Cedric, he was still with Jessica.
lawyergirl25
08-23-2005, 07:25 AM
When did Alex ask Jason to formal? How long have Jessica and Jason been together? I guess I don't understand the timing - either Alex asked him WAY early or Jason and Jessica haven't been together that long, which really makes me wonder why she's putting up with his crap. I cannot even fathom my boyfriend taking another girl to a dance at our school. If I were Alex, I would have insisted that Jason take Jessica.
Honestly, I felt really bad for Jessica until last night. It seemed like she was trying to pick a fight with Jason so she could be the victim, and it was making me nuts. Jason just needs to end it, since Jessica obviously won't.
Wow. Sitting here analyzing high school relationships. Who knew my life was so boring? ;)
I can't remember if it was in last night's episode or preview for next weeks show but...
Alex was basically saying how uncomfortable she was when Jason was really in her face (not sure if he was trying to kiss on her or what) b/c he's dating Jessica.
I thought that was pretty stupid considering the fact that she is basically throwing herself at Jason, REGARDLESS of the fact that he has a girlfriend. She knew he was going to formals w/ Jessica but asked him to hang out afterwards (or something like that). What's that about? Clearly she didn't feel bad/weird about doing that! :rolleyes:
tinkerbelljenny
08-23-2005, 10:34 AM
If I were Alex, I would have insisted that Jason take Jessica.
EXACTLY!
Alex said she felt strange because Jason was dancing really close to her at the dance and Jessica was right there. I still don't understand WHY Jessica didn't go with Jason. They said it was because Alex asked Jason before Jessica and him starting dating but who cares, Jessica is dating him at the time of the dance so why wouldn't she go with her boyfriend! UGH! I hope I never did anything that dumb when I was in high school.
Did anyone see Taylor's extensions the day after the dance, they looked TERRIBLE! Wasn't it funny that most of them were getting extensions? And why didn't Jessica yell at Alex in the nail salon when Alex was talking really loud about going to the dance with her boyfriend?? How sad.
ginastorm
08-23-2005, 10:39 AM
So much drama! I did laugh when the girls were talking about how bad Casey's extensions were. They are bad.
Yes, Alex completely contradicted herself when she said that she was uncomfortable with Jason dancing so close to her. Jason was obviously drunk during the dance and probably sobering up when Jessica joined him in the limobus. I'm just embarassed for Jessica. I can't believe that she is allowing this to be shown on television.
If I were Alex, I would have insisted that Jason take Jessica.
Yes!

Did he spit in her face at the party? I swear he spit on her when they were arguing at the party.
And, if I were her friend, there is no way I would have let her sit out there after the party and wait for him - even if I had to drag her out of there.

Yes, that is what it looked like. I just watched it again, it was on tv again.
I thought the idea of Taylor and Alex in the boxes was a dumb idea. They looked stupid in those boxes and Talan didn't even seem thrilled to see Taylor. And why would Taylor go to the formal with Talan if she knew that Kristin was sleeping with him? Kristin said that her and Talan were friends with benefits...okay.
And what was up with the Banana song that Alex was singing??
I guess next week they will have LC and Stephen again so that should be interesting.

That is a line from Gwen Stefani's "Holla Back Girl". I wonder why she was singing it...maybe it was just stuck in her head?

I completely agree with this! I hope that Jessica is watching herself on tv and learns her lesson about loser boyfriends.

The scene with Jessica and Jason in the limo made me cringe. He was telling her that he was sick of her shit and she was annoying and she was actually grabbing on to him telling him not to go. That was so sad. I feel for her, yeah, she should've dumped him long ago, but obviously there is something missing in her life for her to hang on to him so desperately.
And, if I were her friend, there is no way I would have let her sit out there after the party and wait for him - even if I had to drag her out of there.
I kind of feel bad that they just let her out there, but they were probably so fed up with listening to her, they just gave up, ya know? They'd been telling her for months that he was cheating on her and not treating her right. They wanted to have fun at their winter formal and not deal with the drama-who can blame them for that?
I also feel like Alex should take a look at how he treats Jessica before she goes after him. He'll treat her the same way.

I feel bad for Jessica but only to a certain extent. She has seen Jason in action....especially after the dance! She just needs to get rid of him.
I think that Jessica has a self esteem problem and she is a follower. She is in with the "in crowd" adn wants to stay that way. She also is dating the guy that every girl wants to be with and she doesn't want to give that up. I think he has her wrapped around his little finger and there probably is a lot more to the story than what we see on TV. I'm sure there is a lot of footage where he is super sweet to her and she falls for his crap and they just edit it out. Either way she is hopeless and needs to get a clue.

ITA! A good friend of mine dated a complete loser for a long time. After the first few years of him treating her like crap, I just gave up talking to her about him. Jessica was talking to some guys at the pre-party all about the Jason drama. They were clearly bored. It seems that he is all she can talk about.

Jason is such an ass but who do I think he is so hot?? LOL. And I just saw last week's episode with Jason in the limo...whoa! Not only did he LIE about where he was the night before and not only did Jessica hear Alex SAY that her & Jason were going to the dance together but yet he LEFT with Alex and didn't say shit to Jessica! Then she goes out in the limo and is bugging while he is OBVIOUSLY drunk! Ugh! This girl ANNOYS ME! I like her, she seems nice, but her character is very pathetic and obviously VERY insecure. If a guy ever treated me that way...I'd be gone.

Jason is such a douche bag! I cannot stand him. And if Jessica would stop answering the phone when he calls she wouldn't look as pathetic as she is. Is Laguna Beach that underpopulated with boys that she has to be this desperate?
Stephen needs to stay up in San Francisco and get over his obsession for Kristin and quit leading LC on. He's looking pretty desperate himself.

Okay, I know this is going to come across as really harsh...but Jessica is a dumb-ass idiot. Why did she put up with Jason's bull for so long? Ugh! She makes me worry about the next generation of young women. Last night's episode totally made my skin crawl. I was yelling at the T.V. and everything. DH can't believe I'm this into a "reality" show about HS kids :rolleyes:.

I don't think there's anything new or unsual about Jessica's behavior--the sad truth is many young women go through that--I'll bet many of us here on CC dated someone we sholdn't have and put up with crap--I know I did. Our relationships just weren't played out on TV.
I feel sorry for her, though, as well as for LC--she is B-L-I-N-D.

Plus, I am sure we are getting a nice edited version to make it look even worse that it was. (Jessica mentioned how her and Jason were "like, best friends for so long" before dating.) I am not sure if I believe her at this point, but it is possible that there was SOME good to the relationship we just didn't see (not that it makes up for the bad stuff, but I think you know what I mean!) :)
I am so hooked, it's sick. ;) I even went to watch the Overdrive on mtv (extra stuff) and I think I am going to buy the DVD. Will anyone admit to doing this? Is there any good "extra" footage?
I am SOOO glad Jason finally broke up with Jessica (even if it was just so he could be with Alex.) Finally put this girl out of her misery (and, as harsh as it was, I am glad he said, "No" when she asked if they could be friends.) She really needs no contact with him.
julietchicago
08-30-2005, 11:11 AM
I think Jessica probably felt Jason was unattainable, so when she was finally dating him she was always insecure about herself and their relationship. I know exactly where she is coming from, I have known people just like her in the past. I stood on the outside and was like WTF...leave the guy...he's an ass. But the person in the relationship can't see it. Annoying, so damn annoying!
I hope Steven and Kristin get back together. I don't like LC. DH loves LC, he wants her and Steven to get together. It's funny, I got poor DH into this show. LMAO. muah ha ha ha.
ManteoChik
08-30-2005, 02:54 PM
I must admit that I too am happy that Jason broke up with Jessica. I think he knew that he could get away with treating Jessica like crap because she let him do it. I think now that he is dating Alex he will be different (maybe) because she doesn't seem like she is very passive or will take any of of his shit.
I wish that Stephen and LC would get back together. For some reason I like LC...and I can't stand Kristen, she is such a B**** and doesn't care who she hurts. However, Stephen is stupid for trying to get with her all the time.

I admit, I bought the DVD. I wanted to see LC's house and the audition tapes. There is also a segment in there where Lo shows her favorite places in LB and goes to a store where Taylor works.
Did anyone notice that Stephen brought Kristen roses and LC only flowers and chocolate? Why didn't LC realize he was with Kristen the night before, I know that she finds out in the next episode but DUH, she should have known that. And does anyone else think that Jessica will freak out when she finds out that Alex is dating Jason?

08-31-2005, 06:48 PM
I think Jessica with freak when she finds out that Jason is with Alex...but come on...she has to see it coming. I mean they went on a date (twice) while they were still together.
I wish Stephen would get over himself. I think that Kristen is a little bummed that Stephen is not there all the time to dote on her like he used to. And now that he came back for a visit and brought her flowers for Valentines she is eating it up (even if she looks like she doesn't care).

Yes, I was thinking the same thing.

I'm not surprised about Alex and Jason. He's a jerk who can't keep it in his pants. I realize he's in high school, but he doesn't have the maturity to be in a relationship. His smugness needs to be slapped off his face.

What happened w/ Talan and Kirsten??? They were on then all of a sudden he went to the dance w/ that other girl, and they were over... I figured she would have let him go to the dance with her and then hook up with him later that night.

Just guessing here, but I am sure that Alex thinks that Jason will be different with her than he was with Jessica. I bet she thinks that he's changed. I hope she realizes what a jerk he is alot quicker than Jessica. What am I saying, Jessica doesn't think he's a jerk! She still loves him! I can't believe that she left him a voice mail message saying that! How much hurt does she want from him?

After watching this week's episode...Stephen is a dweeb. I don't think he is getting any in San Fran...he's realizing that he is a dork when he is stuck mingling with the "regular" folk in San Fran, so he keeps coming back to Laguna where he has Kristin and LC fawning over him!
I agree with the others that Casey's voice is incredibly annoying...she is just annoying in general, ugh!

Stephen reminds me of like a John Cusack-type from his old movies. Dorky-cute, ya know? You can tell Kristen is the one he really has the hots for, so I don't know why he keeps leading Lauren on. I'm glad Talan told her about him taking Kristen to dinner for V-Day.
Last night- Jessica, Jessica, Jessica!! What is that girl thinking? Jason is such a jerk. He's all about the pursuit, then once he gets the girl, he loses interest and wants to treat her like crap. I'm glad Alex just walked away from him, but she should have just told him it was over, rather than saying they would talk when they got back from Spring Break. I would let Jessica have him. They deserve each other. I don't feel sorry for Jessica anymore. She was out of the relationship, yet she just keeps pursuing him when she's knows he's with someone else, then lies to her friends about it. I think she's got some serious issues that we don't know about.

It should be obvious to Jessica, Alex and the other girls that Jason is a player and is not mature enough to be in any kind of relationship.

Jessica needs some help if she's messing around with Jason and then lying about it. How can anyone be that dumb???

Isn't that always the way with teenage girls? I remember back in the day when my guy was 2 timing me (when I was 16--not my DH ;->), I wanted to tear the "other woman's" eyes out first and foremost.

Alex should have dumped his butt as soon as he said that "yes and no" about wanting to be with her. That is such an insult! She should have dumped him right there and then called Jesscia to say she can have her "lame" boyfriend back.
The whole bonfire was bizarre, it was kind of like MTV set it up because why would Kristin be hanging out with those girls, Taylor, Alex-brunette, and Casey. Casey looked so out of place before her friends arrived.
Kristin said she was going to USC next year right? I think that is what I heard and someone said they were going to Arizona? I think that was Alex. Did Taylor and the blond Alex say where they are going to college?
lawyergirl25

Taylor is going to Arizona, Alex H is going to a city college (couldn't catch the name), and I don't think Alex M said.

The blonde Alex and the brunette Alex are friends. There was some kind of falling out and the two groups don't get along, but the two Alex's are friends again, so they're trying to get everyone to hang out together. It doesn't seem to be working. The bonfire and the dinner with Alex/Kristen/Alex/Taylor was really awkward.

After watching last night's episode, I wonder how Jessica has any friends. She's not any fun. All she does is sit around and whine and bitch about Jason. I felt bad for her roommate. I think Kristen and the other girls did the right thing ignoring her and just having fun. I can't believe she just whined that she wanted to go home. What a negative person. I felt bad for her at first, but it's all her own fault.
But at that same time, Alex is being a total hypocrite. She was pursueing Jason when Jessica was still with him, even if nothing happened between them. And it didn't take long after Jess and Jason broke up before she started dating him. She keeps talking about how you don't mess around with your friend's boyfriend. So she shouldn't have been dating him to begin with.

Totally. She made Jessica say she was a slut well I think Alex is a major slut too because she was persueing Jason while Jess And Jason were dating and she even went to the dance with him and danced dirty with him....who does that with someone else's boyfriend? I loved how Jason was ignoring her at the park, she got played! Ha. I don't like her anymore either. I thought she would be smarter about Jason and dump his butt but she is pathetic too.
I can't believe Jess had that huge thing on her neck, how embarassing!

I don't think that Alex 'hooked up' with Jason, though. I mean, it's high school, and I can remember everyone switching around like that all through school. However, to me there is a huge difference in flirting into dating someone and actually hooking up with them. If Alex and Jason had hooked up while he was dating Jessica, I think there would have been a lot more drama around that.
It seemed like all the girls got mad at Jessica b/c she actually hooked up with Jason, which even if it didn't include sex, there was some mad making out with the size of that hickey. Not that Alex is an angel, but everyone seemed to agree that atleast she didn't put out to get Jason.
If Alex and Jason had hooked up while he was dating Jessica, I think there would have been a lot more drama around that.
I agree, but if you have a good friend you don't start dating the guy that just dumped her. Alex didn't care enough about Jessica to turn away Jason, but wants to turn it around on Jessica because she feels dumb. Women always blame the other women and go running back to the guy. Alex is equally to blame and Jason & Jessica. All three should just stay away from each other.

I totally agree w/ a lot of the comments said so far about the Alex and Jess drama.
Does anyone else get the feeling that Jason seeks out being treated like a 3 yr old. He looks so pathetic. How are these girls falling for this guy?!?! I don't think I have seen hime say more than 2 words to those girls that weren't "Uh Duh (shrug) Dunno".
I was glad to hear Alex say that she really didn't think about Jason too much while she was in Cabo. Jess on the other hand, why the heck is she still telling herself no more Jason, and trying to play Alex off as the total b!tch.
I think the girls aren't talking to her b/c she lied to them about hooking up w/ Jason at first, more than b/c she hooked up w/ him. Kristen of all girls would have understood if Jess was honest from the beginning.
I can't wait for next week.... I want to see Casey's nasty extentions get ripped out!! I would love a cat fight. I can't stand that girl!!

OMG - I totally agree with this - what the he11 do these girls see in him - he is an idiot. I just don't get it.
And I agree - at this point, if I were Jessica's friend, I would ditch her too....she keeps going back for more. When she called him from Cabo I wanted to scream. Who would want to spend their vacation listening to her whine - not me.
And, I don't like Talon anymore - I thought he really liked the nice quite blond (can't remember her name) but the way he was hanging all over Kristen made me want to gag.

Wasn't LC the narrator last year? Kirsten probably knows that she wont be the *star* anymore. If she leaves town it will be like how they treat Stephen. It is all about him when he is in town. The only time LC gets any air time is if she is talking about him.
Are we even introduced to any of the juniors this year??? I wonder who the narrator is going to be next year.

Ooohhh, a thread about my guiltiest pleasure!
Is it just me, or does Jason, so NOT look like a high school aged guy? The first time he was on the show, I thought he might have been some college/post high school guy that Jessica was dating. He looks way too old for this show.
Truthfully, I don't really get the whole Alex/Jess drama. Think about it...Jess was dating Jason first, but that didn't stop Alex from going to Winter Formal with him. Now I understand that she'd asked him way before, BUT STILL!!! Of course Jess was pissed about that, and rightly so...So now that Alex and Jason are together, why is she expecting Jess to respect her relationship? God, I sound like I'm in high school. :D
Is there going to be a next season?
Who would even be on it? Aren't they all graduating?

I missed the first 10 minutes of the show last night. What was the gossip that got Alex so bent out of shape?
Thanks!
I fell asleep during the 2 part of the show, can anyone re-cap?
I think the last thing I saw was Kristin and Talan eating dinner. I have to say, what 18 year old guy makes a dinner like that? Most boys that age have a hard enough time with a box of macaroni and cheese.

Haha, Casey told Jason that Alex had a "hygiene problem." Alex was REALLY pissed that this was spread around about her.
I missed a lot of the second half too, but what I did see when I was paying attention was that Kristin went to San Fran and basically told Stephen that she wanted to stay single and she did not want to be in a relationship.

The 2nd half of the show:
Stephen showed Kristin around San Francisco and was trying to impress her without making it look like he was trying to impress her. He mentioned a few times that it was strange to hang out with her like friends because when he's with her he used to them being more than friends. Kristin looked bored the entire time she was in San Francisco. To me, she didn't appreciate the effort that Stephen was putting forth. In her defense though, Stephen kept hinting that he wanted to be more than friends with Kristin and had he trouble understanding why she would just want to be friends with him. Move on Stephen.
Casey apologized to Alex WhateverHerInitialIs about spreading some personal hygene information around about her (I'm dying to find out what it was!). Casey seemed sincere about being sorry and wanted to be friends with Alex again. Alex said that she forgave her but didn't want to be friends with her again. I don't blame her, I wouldn't either.
LC mentioned that she was doing an internship with Three Dots, a fashion company. I guess her and Casey are friends.

I think we can probably guess what the "hygiene" issue was! Its not like she said "Casey said I had bad breath or B.O"...the fact that she left it open makes me think its some trouble "down there"...EWWW!
I thought it was hilarious how Casey was like "well, I was just repeating what I heard, and its not a big deal" instead of saying "I swear I didnt say it!" If I were Alex, I think I would want to know that people were saying that stuff about me so I could take care of it!
I just love this show because it brings back all the girl drama in high school! And this way I can watch it and talk all about it without being involved personally! Isnt that great?

Interesting tidbit from Page 6:
LINDSAY Lohan is the jealous type. "Laguna Beach" bad girl Kristen Cavallari told Rolling Stone: "One night when [Lohan and fellow 'Laguna Beach' star Talan] were dating, I slept in Talan's bed, I mean, I was fully clothed, wearing a long T-shirt — nothing went down," she says, her lips creeping into a smile. "Then at, like, 6 a.m. Lindsay comes in and freaks out! She starts crying, going 'Aaargh!' and slams a glass on the table. I was like, 'Are you kidding me right now?' Talan had to tell her to leave." Lohan's publicist denies the event ever occurred.

Recap
Kristen threw a fiesta, everyone was invited except for Alex and her buddies. Jessica likes the surfer guy Jeff, he's been calling her. Kristen kisses Jeff and Jessica knows about it and seems fine.
Jason or Talen (can't remember who) set up a trip to San Diego to go to a fake surfing wave thing but Kristen won't go. Alex and her girls and Jessica (who seems to be fine again with Alex) go and diss on Kristen about kissing Jeff.
LC goes to San Fran for a trunk show for her internship. Calls Stephen and he comes and gets her to take her out for dinner. LC asks him about his relationship with Kristin, Stephen kind of hems and haws about it a bit but says he will always care for her and they are "just chill" these days. Stephen asks LC what she thinks would have happend if he and LC had had a real relationship. They talk about their kiss last season and he remembers it fondly.
Stephen says he and his brother are looking for a place in Manhattan Beach, LC says she's moving to LA and they discuss Kristin moving to LA also.
It ended with Jeff and Jessica walking on the beach.
Next week is the prom, should make for a great episode!

MTV has extended the season by two episodes, pushing back the start of the RW/RR Challange to accomodate.

I thought that Jessica saw them together when she walked off the beach and just didn't say anything at all. This goes along with why Kristin was asking if Jessica was mad about it...

See...this is where I think editing has a lot to do with things. I wonder how long actually was between Kristin's visit to see Stephen and then LC's visit. The show is taped over 8 months and its totally possible that it was weeks or months between the two visits. It could have been thrown together like that to make it more interesting.
Either way, I think it makes him look like a loser..are there no available women in SF?

My TIVO caught a rerun of Mon's episode, so I got to see it.
Jess is such a doormat. Get a backbone, girl. Unless it was edited out, she wasn't even that upset with Kristen. And Kristen is a bitch. She hooked up with that guy knowing Jess liked him and after cheering Jess up about Jason, telling her she loved her and giving her a kiss. Then talking about it the next day, she acted like it didn't even matter. Kharma, Kristen, watch out.
I like Taylor. She seems like such a nice girl. I liked what she said to Jess about being gorgeous on the inside, and Kristen was lacking that. I had to rewind it though, cause at first I thought she said, "You're NOT pretty on the outside, but you're gorgeous on the inside."

I just read the article on the link, and in case you're wondering about the kid who lives in a trailer park, I live in Orange County and know exactly where that trailer park is -- Laguna has one only trailer park and it overlooks the ocean. And the trailers go for over $1 million each. So maybe he/she is not wealthy by Laguna standards, but anywhere else the family would be considered, at the very least, well off. :)

I'm surprised Kristin has any friends left considering the way she treats people. Talan should have left her ass.
Alex had no business calling Jessica a slut. She needs to look at herself to see what a real slut is.

Oh, yeah, forgot about HER. I really liked Alex M. at the beginning of the season, but now I can't stand her. Between her behavior around winter formal time and her clinging to Jason at prom, it's so clear that she doesn't care about anyone but herself.
But...at least she goes after boys not involved with her close friends, unlike KRISTIN! I still can't believe she did that. And that Jessica still thought Jeff hung the moon. :rolleyes:

Anyway, I read the E! article yesterday, then last night while I was watching the show, I kept thinking "how was this situation staged?" I always knew parts of it were staged, but did anyone watch the show with a slightly different eye after reading the article?
I have to say...Casey's dress took the cake! Who wears stuff like that in h.s.?! Also, I don't remember people going all out like that to ask people to dances. When I was in h.s., we just called and asked?! Is that a Laguna thing or a new trend that has happened in the past 12-15 years?
I hope the 3rd season does follow the current cast...it'd be interesting to see how they do when they're actually on their own in LA. Wishful thinking though...mommy and daddy will still load them with cash and it'll be a cold day in hell before they know what the "real world" is like.

In the beginning, wasn't Jessica and Talan just coming out of a breakup?
Wasn't it Talan that was pusuing Alex M.'s friend (her name escapes me at the moment...is it Morgan?), the blonde one? What happened with that?
What happened between Alex M. and Jason for him to ask another girl?
Why did Alex M. get all up in Jessica's face while they were on vacation?

According to Talan, she's a tease.
What happened between Alex M. and Jason for him to ask another girl?
He kissed Jessica, and then didn't show much interest in Alex. And there was some weird rumor about Alex's hygiene.
Why did Alex M. get all up in Jessica's face while they were on vacation?
Because Jessica kissed Jason.

I totally did. I was pretty sure that they set up Alex H. and Jessica's "asking" - I don't think it would have been that easy for two gorillas to sneak up on them in broad daylight on a street like that. How often do Alex H. and Jessica hang out by themselves anyway? Kristin's always with them (with "Kristin's friend" always under Alex's name - which has just got to be the dumbest thing at this point in the season).
Ditto on the shopping trip where Cami asked Alex M. if it was okay that Jason took her to prom.

Jessica is an idiot, most girls do stuff like that in high school but don't have it broadcast for the entire world. Casey is funny, she doesn't fit in but good for her for being herself.

I felt so bad for Talan in the last episode. So into Kristen and he'll just never learn his lesson!
Screw Talan--he totally worked Taylor over and he's getting what he deserves.
Sincerely,
Nicole
34 year old LB addict
Yeah I totaly forgot about how Talan d*cked Taylor over. i guesw he did deserve what h got!!!
I can't remember if I have posted this but TVGasm.com has THE funnies LB recaps ever. I think the recap for the week is usually posted by Wed or Thur.

Additional thoughts..
LC is definitely stunning
Taylor is adorable
Kristen seems to only care about herself and I am amazed that she has any friends left
I'm convinced Alex M is really a man
I would love to see a pic of those trailor park homes that are going for $1 mil! Funny how they tried to make it sound like that person was poor or something in that article.

That site is hilarious! This however is almost too much for me...almost b/c it's still freaking funny in a tacky sort of way.

(Ahem)...I've got y'all beat...I'm 34 and watch it. But I blame it on my teenaged daughter because she watches it, and I have her DVR it for me.
Yep, I'm pathetic too. Oh well. If the only drama in my life is what I watch on TV, I'm better off than most people. :D

Another addict to this show!
Anyone think that Cami coming up and asking Alex if it was okay to go to prom with Jason was more about introducing her for the next season and less about getting permission? Who will be on the 3rd season? The same kids, or a new group of juniors/seniors?
Can anyone do a quick recap?
Well that one site someone posted mentioned that for season 3 they were thinking of intro'ing some of the youger students but still filming the cast now in their post-high school life. SO i bet Cami will be one of the younger students featured more in season 3!
Question
So Kristen said on a previous episode that she was going to Arizona for college - right?? Then why is she getting a place in LA with Alex?

I'm guessing that Kristin would postpone college to cash in on her Laguna fame.

I'm pretty sure Kristen said she was going to 'SC (USC). Does anyone remember hearing differntly? If it's true, I think 'SC is a perfect match for her.

In TV Guide she said she was going to USC.

Oh gawd I totally reposted!!! :o
Notice I used the word "totally" ;)
Go on. Admit it. You watch it. I mean, um, not that I do or anything. But with the gazillion airings nearly every day of the week, you'd probably have to be a cave-dwelling TV phobe not to have gotten sucked into at least one episode of MTV's Laguna Beach, which by the way, is now the ninth highest-rated cable series on television.
It's TV's dirtiest little secret. It's the show no one admits to watching (certainly not over the age of 16), and when they do, they pull those curtains tight so the neighbors don't see--especially that blabbermouth bitch down in 3A.
Again, um, not that I actually watch it.
If I did, I could tell you this totally addictive series looks like The O.C. but feels like The Real World: Orange County, or as producer Gary Auerbach calls it, television's first "dramality," a "hybrid animal that's in between the drama that people are used to watching and reality shows."
The concept is, frankly, a bit confusing to those of us-- crap, did I say us? I meant, you people--who follow this show religiously and ask: Is this thing real? Given its slick cinematography and tight storyline, it's either the most amazingly produced reality show ever, or...a completely fabricated sham.
The truth? It's a little of both.
Thanks to a little hard-core digging among reliable sources who work on the show, I've come up with the scoop on precisely what's real and what isn't, plus, other behind-the-scenes secrets about the pretty little rich (or are they?) kids who are fast becoming Hollywood's elite.
Everything You Wanted to Know About Laguna Beach but Were Afraid to Ask
It Is Real...Kinda, Sorta: This "dramality" is real in the sense that the these are actual high school students and what we see is actually happening in their lives. What's not so real, according to show insiders, is how, where and when these things go down. Believe it or not, the castmembers only "work" Thursday through Sunday (How do I get on this show?), so important "scenes" are often delayed and then set up by producers to make sure they're caught on film.
A few key examples: The now infamous bonfire scene where Jessica first sees Alex M. and Jason together was completely orchestrated by producers. Before the bonfire, the crew spent hours lighting the beach and the mountains in the background before the kids were allowed to interact with each other. When Jason finally arrived, they told him how to enter the scene and where to go. Similarly, the big confrontation in Cabo between Jessica and Alex M. was specifically planned for that night. Producers saw the situation and knew Alex M. would confront Jessica, so they instructed her not to go off on her "man-stealing slut"/calling-the-kettle-black tirade until the cameras were ready.
There's a Reason They Giggle: My spies tell me most of the scenes with the guys or girls talking about a specific dishy subject (like Kristin telling Alex H. how she makes guys like Talan fall in love with her; or Alex M. and Taylor bitching about Kacy; and again, not that I watch this show) are coached by producers. They light the scene, get the cameras rolling, then say, "Talk about why Alex is so mad at you" or "Talk about why Kristin is such a bitch."
This off-camera coaching is actually the reason we often see castmembers laughing when they talk about serious situations. (Kristin, in particular, does it a lot.) They've just been instructed on what to talk about, and it just feels...odd.
The Castmembers Are Bona Fide Celebrities: If the picture at right is any indication, these kids have become big-time A-listers on the Hollywood party circuit. Just ask our Party Girl, they're always on the list. Not only are the LB kids hangin' with Paris and Nicole and Lindsay these days, they can go anywhere and everywhere they want, no matter their age and how many people they bring, and, of course, it's all free.
Most of the castmembers are now living in L.A., partying and pursuing Hollywood dreams with their managers, agents and publicists. While Alex M. is meeting this very week with a few record companies, including Atlantic Records, the rest are trying to become actors, including Kristin,
who told me at a recent Us Weekly party, "I wanna do movies. It's been going pretty well. I'm reading some scripts right now and taking acting classes, so it's in the process."
[Dishy side note: Kristin is repped by the same publicist as Lindsay Lohan, and my sources tell me the story Kristin told Rolling Stone--about Lindsay flipping out when she saw Kristin in Talan's bed--is 100 percent true. It happened last spring, so these kids have been mixing with the Hollywood crowd for a long time now.]
All this Hollywood hoopla hasn't exactly been welcomed by the producers, who have fought tooth and nail--with increased pay and exclusivity contracts--to keep these regular kids from becoming stars, since it ruins the original concept of the show. And now they have a serious dilemma on their hands because...
They Are Planning a Third Season: Show insiders tell me producers are currently negotiating their individual contracts for season three and have to figure out how to shoot another season, given that their current cast have all graduated and are bed-hopping their way into Us Weekly. I'm told they're toying with the idea of introducing a few new kids that are seniors this year (they're casting now), but ultimately, the show will focus on the current cast, living in Los Angeles, and will pop back into Laguna from time to time. They'll try to focus on the drama that doesn't involve Hollywood or Lindsay or Paris. So, expect a lot of teeth brushing and butt scratching.
There Are Storylines You Don't See: Even though we've never seen it on the show, Stephen and Jason are actually good friends. So much so that Stephen is perfectly fine with the fact that Jason and Stephen's former flame LC have been getting, um, cozy, from time to time (I'm guessing because he still has the hots for Kristin).
The Kids Aren't as Wealthy as They're Made Out to Be: Word is, one of the castmembers actually lives in a trailer park, and most of the castmembers live fairly middle-income existences (at least by O.C. standards). That said, LC and Kristin are seriously loaded. So loaded, in fact, that according to my spies, they're somewhat competitive--when LC's family built that humongous house overlooking the Pacific, Kristin's family felt the need to follow suit.
Bottom line, just as its theme song suggests, Laguna Beach might not be all it seems and "perfect" might not be so "perfect"...but damn, if it isn't so totally addictive, mind-numbingly entertaining that this die-hard fan will be watching every minute of it.
There. I said it. Me--a fan. Live with it.

Okay, so I just saw the prom episode yesterday. I have a question...doesn't anyone dress up for prom anymore? I'm not asking for sequins or anything, but those girls had on what amounted to, really nice sundresses. Is that a west coast thing, or are kids now-a-days just super-casual?
