Hoarders (on A&E)

[Deleted]

Was Randy eating his hair or just pretending? It looked like real chowing down. Yowza.

Randy was just pretending to eat the hair. He's crazy, no doubt, but I don't know if I'd call him a hoarder as much as a disorganized collector. He did want to display his stuff but had no idea how to go about it. I wasn't surprised when the text at the end said his museum wasn't doing well. He was such an antisocial jackass! Could you imagine how snarky and creepy he is to the museum's patrons? Too bad, because in the right hands his collection could be a cool museum.

Didn't like the show much last night. Randy was weird, and didn't seem to want any help with hoarding, just need a hand moving his crap. What was the purpose of having him on the show?

The woman in San Antonio, Vicky(?), was obviously not ready to deal with her issues. I was wishing Dr. Robin had called CPS because she was not mentally or materially able to parent her son. Her poor family. I didn't see the final BSOJ, so I don't know what happened to her.

Randy was just super famewhorey. He wanted camera time so people would know about his museum. Or just because he needed camera time because he's famewhorey.

I wish Dr. Robin would cut her hair. I keep imagining lice, and fleas, and maggots jumping from all the garbage to her dangling hair.

I just watched the repeat of the woman that lived in Hawaii. Her husband, who had scoliosis and had receently had prostate cancer, had to sleep in his car because there was no room for him on the bed. They were able to clean out the bedroom and put a bed in it. When the husband was able to finally lay down I started crying. He seemed like the sweetest man. That house was crazy. Every room with junk stacked to the ceiling with crap and the narrowest of pathways through the mess. When they cleared out the crap covering the bedroom windows they had the most beautiful view.

I remember that episode. The wife did not seem thrilled to share a bed with her husband, did she? I can't imagine owning a piece of prime real estate like that and then filling it with junk and garbage. A few weeks ago they had a family on that lived in a beautiful house in Beverly Hills, full of trash and junk.

Mah show is back! The new Hoarders aired last night and they don't hold back, as usual. Hoarder #1 - Kevin, a "homeless freegan" in NYC who also is the son of 1950s model/talk show host Jinx Falkenberg and her husband Tex McCreary. Gorgeous parents, good-looking sons, one son normal, the other son Kevin who has hoarded his apartment to the point where I'm not sure how they even got the cameras in. It looked like they were filming from the bottom of one of those sleeping bag stuff-sacks with the sleeping bag in it. He was living on the streets eating food out of dumpsters, etc, but his cats, yes cats, continued to live in the apartment. I think this is the first son of a bona fide celebrity that has been on Hoarders. Now I'm speculating what "child of celebrities" will appear on a simliar show in 20 years - one of Tori Spelling's kids? Siri Cruise?

Jinx... and... Tex? That's for real? That wasn't Barbie's discontinued "Saddle Up, Par'dner!" Western line of dolls in 1966?

I think I've just gotten re-addicted to this show. Has anyone seen the opening episode Debra/Patty on Sept 10? Patty was so happy when she walked into her cleaned house, her face just lit up. However I thought Debra was borderline something... (psychopathic?) her grown son was crying in front of her and she showed no remorse for piling up the living room with 15,000 pieces of clothing. Who the hell would wear that many clothes?

Last night was a masterpiece of editing, what with the juxtaposition, and I really appreciated Matt Paxton's attempt to sleep in Patty's house.

There was a report that a Hoarders-show house in Texas has tested postive for the hanta virus, but apparently it's Hoarding: Buried Alive. Link
