Linda Holmes is one of the biggest success stories to come out of TWOP. Hosting an NPR podcast (Pop Culture Happy Hour), writing for NPR, and she's just published a novel. I used to read her TAR recaps and thought she was really judgy, and definitely had favorites. Those recaps were so big back in the day, and they even had finale parties where the contestants would show up! The only people I can think of who started out on TWOP and have gone on to big success like Holmes is the Fug Girls. Anyone else parlay it into a career that I'm not thinking of? I don't really know any of the recapper's actual names, so I'm not sure. I only know Miss Alli's because her legend loomed so large over the site. She was like the Kate Gosselin of TWoP, nobody really liked her, but she certainly had everyone talking about her. She was judgy and at times, a bit oversensitive about certain topics, and her favoritism bled into her recaps, but I did think she was a talented writer. I remember reading the stuff about the finale parties, didn't she always make a drunken fool of herself at those? Didn't Pamela write a book?

Previously TV is really out of control. Some posters are using profanity, and I've reported to the moderators, to no avail. Their rules are to be civil - hah! I can only conclude that the posters are sleeping with the moderators. GHScorpioRules is a particularly nasty piece of baggage.

Since when can’t you use profanity on the site? I have never been cited for using swear ores.

Yeah, profanity isn't a reportable offense.

Oh, I thought that went along with being civil. No wonder they told me to fuck off! LOL

I agree with you about Scorpio Rules, though. Super annoying.
