Top 8: Results

For some unknown reason, my tape of the results show turned out to be blank. My second VCR is a bit on the flaky side, alas. All I know at this point is that Jon-Peter Lewis got the axe, based on the graphics at the bottom of the Zap2It guide. Can't say I expected that one, but I won't say it isn't welcome.

Also, the Apprentice finale started at 9, not 8, so the ratings fallout presumably wasn't nearly as bad as I'd thought.

...ah, here's the recap. Diana was at the top of the Bottom Three; the other two were John and Jon. And Jon's gone.

And next week is Barry Manilow Week?! Oh, my.

(For anyone keeping track, only one pool entry predicted JPL's exit this week, that being mine from the Top 11 week.)

And on reading a more detailed recap, they apparently broke their usual pattern entirely, declaring five contestants to be safe this week, leaving the remaining three as those on the bottom. Which presumably means that I really owe Jennifer an apology.

I missed it too, Shmuel (I'm a big Survivor fan). All I have to say is, thank freaking goodness JPL is finally gone. I find him very painful to watch.
