    So...In the last top shot, does anyone else besides me feel George lost on purpose so Chris would have a better chance to win?

    It would be better is it were not a popularity contest between the house members. They should have them all seperate, not much hanging out time so no alience's can be formed. An not let the others see or knoe how well a person did in a shoot untill everyone has gone through the challenge. Or something to that effect, to make it more realistic and not so reality TV

    I don't know if losing on purpose at the end makes up for him being an ass the whole show.

    To me, it seems the producers spend a lot of effort trying to make it "reality TV", but they can only do so much through editing. Sure there are alliances and what not, but it's not as much part of the competition as it is for Survivor for instance. Quite often a person will volunteer for elimination challenge after a poor showing because contestants want to earn the title, not just win it.

    My main complaint with the show is that there isn't more backgrounds about the weapons. It is the History Channel...

    2cool, I belive your are correct in that assumption

    My thought is...if George stayed in the game and won,he could have split the money with Chris or something. I thought part of winning was to be named Top Shot. That ruined the last episode for me.

    Wow!

    What a waste of competitors. Looks like they just went with stories and didn't try to get anyone with real credentials.

    I'm a "pistol competitor", do I qualify?

    Remember, last time they kept saying "Golf Instructor". He was actually a very accomplished competition shooter. The show just runs with whatever gets you talking. Seems to be working.

    I wanna shoot from a stagecoach! :tantrum:

    Well Amanda is an NRA instructor and Mark is an A Class USPSA competitor.

    I'm thinking Jay is looking like a winner right now.
