Workout Season 2 premiere

*Spoilers*

 

 

 

Downloaded the premiere off of iTunes and the preview for the future episodes is a little shocking.

Jackie & Rebecaa... wtf??? I'm not sure if that relationship will fly with me. Other opinions?

wtf???

far be it for me to tell anyone whom they should date but i'm perplexed by this one. i thought in season 1 she said she didn't go for rebecca's type in fact as a feminist she was offended by her behavior. oh yeah and what about not dating your employees isn't that a rule or law or something?

If you check out Jackie and Rebecca's myspaces, it looks like they've officially been together for some months.

I was wondering if anyone else noticed that. I agree they are officially together. Plus check out Zen's interview. http://www.fearlessradio.com/podcast/macslater/040307/040307.mp3  Zen really just gave it away. Rebecca did a interview where she confirmed that she n Jackie are together but I can't find it.

I just love Rebecca and Jackie together.

 Great interview!  Thanks for the link :)  I found an interview with Rebecca on the same website:

 http://www.fearlessradio.com/podcast/macslater/032007/032007.mp3

I don't know if it's the same interview you mention in your post where she confirmed their relationship but at one point the radio hosts ask Rebecca about Jackie and Mimi (this was before the S2 premiere episode so she couldn't give anything away).  She responds to their question by saying "I cannot say enough about how much I love this woman.  She is the coolest chick on the planet and we have become very, very, very close this season."  The radio guys are kind of horny dweebs but funny, worth a listen.

Also the ep 4 preview is up on the Bravo website:

 I don't want to say anything too spoilery but I will say that I think Tiffany needs to go away in a very bad way and I want to smack Andre for some of his comments.

Yes that was the one, Thanks

Yes that was the one, Thanks for posting it. It was a great interview, so funny. And I cannot express to you how pissed off I am at Andre. I knew he was gonna say some stupid shit like that.

Oh and I think the next episode is when Doug died. Its so sad. I'm still shocked.

re: next episode

I know, it's tragic :(  He seemed like a very kind and gentle man.  I'm just sorry that he had to spend part of the last months of his life dealing with the petty Jesse drama (the season as far as I can tell was filmed over just a few months from November until early February). 

 I'm wondering if because of the sudden tragedy surrounding Doug they drastically re-cut and changed the chronology of certain events.  I rewatched the S2 season preview (http://video.bravotv.com/player/?id=81772) and some of the clips don't quite fit or make sense after seeing the third episode.  Like Rebecca saying that Jackie is "insatiable" at the slumber party and J&R making out in bed wearing the same clothes they were in the dog-washing scene.

 BTW, love this photo I found earlier:

Is it wrong to feel a bit of glee over how miserable Jesse looks in that pic? lol

Huh??? That relationship

Huh??? That relationship makes no sense to me, but maybe I'm being too judgmental.

In other spoiler news, I read in the Advocate that Doug, one of the S1 trainers, died in January. I think it was a heart attack. Sad. He was 44 years old.

I read that it was from brain cancer or a brain tumor. Very tragic.

Didn't they dedicated the season 2 premeire to him? I saw Doug, and I was really hoping that it wasn't Doug the trainer. That's bad news man.

I'm so glad that show is

I'm so glad that show is back. It's good to see some lesbian visibility on BASIC cable television.

Doug was so sweet!! I'm so bummed about that.

Wow, it's been forever since

Wow, it's been forever since I posted here but I had to jump in on the Workout discussion.  I've been watching the new episodes on iTunes and reading the recaps here and I'm hooked, hehe.  I gotta say I'm totally rooting for Jackie and Rebecca, they're absolutely adorable and seem smitten with each other -- Rebecca moreso than Jackie, who understandably appears bit gunshy about comitting to any relationship (per some comments in her blog and extra videos on the Bravo website).  

I wanted to share some links featuring the two of them so here you go!

Episode 5 previews

Hey all, here are a few links to previews for next week:

http://video.outzonetv.com/player/?id=90322

http://video.bravotv.com/player/?id=89940

And some amusing bonus footage from the last episode:

 http://video.bravotv.com/player/?id=89487

 This week's recap was tooo funny, I love it.  Expecially the comment about Jackie's ego being studied from space by North Korean satellites.  Seriously, can this woman be any more narcissistic? 

 I actually felt bad for Rebecca in this episode.  When she's not projecting thinly veiled jealousy or being catty with/against Jesse she's actually kinda sweet and funny and super hot.  I hope she hasn't gotten in over her head with Jackie -- who comes across in this episode as such a player, omg.  Tiff needs to take her scary gums and go far, far away.  The fact that she was eagerly french-kissing and Jackie and Jackie's chihuahuas simultaneously...um, ew.  And she willingly participated in that completely un-classy fiasco at Sushi Dan.

Now I was wondering about Big Tiff because Rebecca said she'd met her before and lo', on the Sky Sport website, http://www.skysportspa.com/html_trainers_tiffany.html

Jackie seems to have a thing for making conquests of bi-curious subordinates?  Yikes.

Omg that preview on bravo!!  I'm dying to know what happens after

she throws water on jesse.  DRAMa!!

good stuff.

Rebecca makes this show entertaining. She is so funny. I love her.

  My love for jackie is all but gone.

Work Out -- Episode 6

Hey all, previews are up for the next episode:

http://video.bravotv.com/player/?id=92904

http://video.outzonetv.com/player/?id=92502

And there's some cute bonus footage of Jackie & Rebecca's dinner date from the last ep:

http://video.bravotv.com/player/?id=92053

http://video.bravotv.com/player/?id=92058

 Aside from the kinda depressing and cringe-worthy stuff with the Skylabbers, I enjoyed last week's episode.  I look forward to bad machine's AfterEllen recap as much as I do the show itself, LOL.  This line from the past week's recap pretty much sums up my feelings on the showmance vs romance debate:

 At first I thought this whole thing with Rebecca was for the cameras. But maybe it's more than a showmance? Rebecca makes Jackie laugh, something Mimi rarely did. Could it be Jabecca is real and not a hoax? Either you believe it or you don't. Sort of like a yeti.

Whatever the heck is going on between the two of them, at least they're having a great time.  I bust out laughing more than once during their 'romantic' date, especially during the fondue bit, hehe.   I actually like Jackie more when she's relaxed and happy and just chillin' with Rebecca. The immensity of the Warner ego the rest of the time is entertaining but tiresome.

I'm sort of befuddled by Rebecca's steak vs french fries comparison, no idea what she was getting at, but I love both steak and french fries so it's all good in my book.

FYI, next time ya'll are on myspace check out Rebecca's page -- she posted a really, ah, interesting photo of Jackie posing with a ...banana (??)

Isn't it sad how Doug died on the Workout? They are going to show how the trainers handled the news on Tuesday. How do you all feel about him almost being cursed to die around the same age of his parents? Do you think that can happen to anyone if they believe in a family curse?
