It’s been a long time since Zach and Amy bothered the world with their disgusting relationship on the first season of Paradise Hotel and now, five years later, Zach - is - back.

Last night Zach became the last person to check-in to Paradise Hotel to compete for the “ultimate grand prize.” At first I didn’t even recognize him, it took me awhile to even adjust to his new (and much slimmer) face and body. It seemed like he’s been doing a lot of reflection for the past five years as he seemed to be much more collected, educated and well-mannered. But, we’ll see how long that lasts! Zach instantly connected with Mikey who, after just losing Tanya the week before, reminded Zach of himself and his past television romance. It didn’t take long for Zach to promise Mikey he’d forever have his back only to turn on him by the end of the episode. If Zach even wants a shot at the prize he’ll have to side with the new people not the originals, or the O.G.’s as they call themselves.

Also, what kind of prize is a body waxing?

I still can’t believe Zach is back.

Nathan Clutter was the first man out of Paradise Hotel 2, forced out by the new entry man, Johnny.

Unfortunately by now we all know of Nathan’s untimely death after the taping of Paradise Hotel 2. First dubbed as climbing accident and then reported as a suicide, it doesn’t really matter either way Nathan Clutter’s passing was too soon. I’m not a psychologist, but Nathan’s composure during the series made me wonder what the reasons were for his passing.

I asked Paradise Hotel 2 resident Tanya Norman about Nathan and his mental state during the taping of the show, she said:

“Nate was a very quiet guy, but the moment you started to talk to him about life he’d really open up. He was kind and very spiritual. I can only assume he was a different person than all of us new before he hopped on that plane to meet all of us. Everyone has things about themselves they either want to change or act as if never existed in the beginning, and other things we may not feel will even be accepted and that takes so much of one’s soul to be able to deal with. You have the choice to believe it was an accident or a suicide and in my book he made an impression on all of us within those few weeks and it’s not me to make judgments on one’s emotional state but to respect that he has found happiness within himself.”

Our best wishes, again, go out to his family.

While MyNetworkTV is still a relatively small and unknown channel with few shows- one show in particular is bringing some pretty high ratings to the channel. That show being none other than Paradise Hotel 2.

The season premiere of Paradise Hotel 2 drew only about 692,000 viewers but by the second episode they had increased their ratings to 779,000 viewers. While the highest ratings for the channel still lie with their show ‘Celebrity Expose’ whose premiere only attracted 88,000 viewers but upon the lead-in to Paradise Hotel 2 last Monday had 805,000 viewers.

These are all solid numbers considering the show is being aired on a channel most people have still yet to hear of.

Next order on my agenda are the lies that Fox Reality Channel are selling us in order to get us to watch it on their channel instead of on MyNetworkTV. The episodes are relatively identical; however, Fox Reality Channel promises us an uncensored and uncut weekly broadcast.

The first episode I heard the word ‘pussy’ a couple times and saw Ryan’s tight little ass, but last Monday’s episode kind of pissed me off. First of all everything was blurred including cock-shots. I suppose I could understand why they’re blurring full front nudity (I guess)- but then every bad word the cast used was ALSO bleeped out. I believe the word they bleeped out four times in one sentence was the word ‘fuck’ or some derivative thereof. Don’t tote around the idea of an uncensored episode if you going to censor everything in the episode! You can’t just lie to people to get them to watch it on your channel and then not live up to your expectations.

Sure I got to watch Ryan attempt to rape Chelsea on national television forcing her drunken skank ass to touch “the ridge” of his penis, where it “only gets better when it gets harder.” That’s pretty scandalous but nothing that can’t be shown on plain old network television.

Upon the end of Monday nights episode Chelsea and Lauren both chose Ryan to be their partner for the week. Chelsea cited she chose Ryan because he’s teaching her “so many new things” including “how to swim” and what the ridge of his penis feels like. Ultimately Ryan sided with Lauren because they’re both from New Jersey and therefore have some low-trash bond.

Well Chelsea, if all else fails you can become the worlds first Paradise Hotel pop-singer! [See video above]

Finally, fives years after its initial run, Paradise Hotel is returning to our television screens. It promises to be filled with drama, sex, and excitement. So much so that they’re running a TV-MA version of the show on the Fox Reality Channel every Monday after the normal MyNetworkTV broadcast.

The show, for the most part, will follow the same format as its original- 6 guys and 5 girls check in to the hotel and every so ofter (to the producers discretion) they’ll have to pair up, the odd man out gets eliminated and someone from the opposite sex checks in and then the whole sch-bang starts all over again. Until, of course, the producers decide to make up some random twist. I’m sure there will be lots of build-up, flashing screens in our faces, and that same eerie announcer saying, “Tonight on Paradise Hotel…”

I absolutely cannot wait for the episode. I’ve been waiting long enough. The original Paradise Hotel has been logged as one of my top 5 favorite reality shows of all time, I just hope the second season lives up to my wildest fantasies…

The show debuts tonight at 9pm.

Paradise Hotel 2 is upon us and they’ve recently released cast information, I’ve taken it upon myself to scourge the internet trying to find the juciest (but for the most part pretty boring) gossip on each contestant.

Now for the studs:

[James Adamitis]

James is 28 and from Houston, Texas. The second contestant I could find that thinks they could be America’s Next Top Model. James Adamitis has his own official modeling website with pictures like this:

===

[Mike Ranallo]

Mike is 25 and our second contestant to hail from Arizona (Phoenix to be exact). He enjoys “smoking” and “day drinking” which basically classifies him as an addict. He’s single too and only reads books on tape, however one does that. He also likes taking off his shirt and exposing his bare chest. He, like fellow cast member James, also has his own modeling website.

Hot.

===

[Ryan Matthews]

Clearly he’s the surfer/lifeguard, and a professional one at that. He didn’t have too much information I could dig up on him- but he is 24 and from New Jersey.

===

[Raheim Smith]

Raheim is 26 and from New York, New York. The official Paradise Hotel 2 website claims that he’s a ‘writer’ although I failed to find anything he’d ever written, either in book or article format.

===

[Nate Clutter]

Nate is 25 and like everyone else to ever be on Paradise Hotel 2, is from Arizona. It’s going to be weird watching a dead person on television, as it will greatly decrease my ability to trash him on a weekly basis. Nate committed suicide in October of last year after he jumped from a cellular phone tower, click here to read more about Nate’s untimely passing.

well that rounds out our group of studs. Paradise Hotel 2 premieres February 4th on both MyNetworkTV and the Fox Reality Channel (get off your ass and check your local listings).

Paradise Hotel 2 is upon us and they’ve recently released cast information, I’ve taken it upon myself to scourge the internet trying to find the juciest (but for the most part pretty boring) gossip on each contestant.

Lets start with the skanks:

[Tidisha Huley]

She’s 23 and from Atlanta, Georgia. She’s our first contestant this season who is signed with a “modeling agency” although her lower set of teeth appear to be all metal (not lying). She writes:

“I want what most woman want in a relantionship, a man who is HONEST, has Jesus in his life in some form or fashion,trustworthy, not afraid to broaden his horizons, educated, career oriented, down to earth, and someone who can be my best friend because what I thought was true was not meant for me in this chapter of my life.”

Her MySpace headline reads: Just because you have pictures showing your ass doesn’t make u a model. But then posts this very classy picture (of the many) of herself:

===

[Tanya Norman]

Tanya is 25 and from San Diego, California. Tanya Norman may appear to be the pretty girl next door but the rumor mill churned out that she may actually be either lesbian or bisexual. Not sure how that will impact her PH game, but there’s destine to be some affect. My favorite part of her is that she’s an amazing ‘writter’. She ‘writtes’ on her MySpace:

“My real love is art all aspects. Writting thats a big one poetry captivates me. words can be more descriptive than anyone could possibly think.”

So lets take a gander at one of her lovely poems called ‘Hot/Cold’:

“When its hot ,its a hot and I can’t seem to take enough articles of clothing off, instant attraction is my hot button and I crave the feeling it sends through my veins, pulsating everytime the phone rings or someones breath upon my neck, I am left with such a body quench that sometimes I forget I’m even awake, the feeling of mutual sincerity, lust and a wanting is phenomenal, what happens when your feeling is no longer a part of this moment, it is felt no matter whether words are expressed its that just a feeling, some are better at expressing their feelings and some are not, its not fault nor fear, just them and them alone, and yes it makes you sad, but the feeling is never gone and someone will bring it back, its the why we experience it in the first place, you are alive and you can feel and the moment that goes away check your pulse….”

I can’t wait to here some more! She’s almost as amazing of a lyricist as B-Spears.

===

[Lauren Doughten]

She’s 25 and from Wilmington, North Carolina. Her dog died, she likes football, her MySpace says she’s now ‘In A Relationship’… BOR-ING… Lets move on.

===

[Charte Jones]

She’s 24 and like Tidisha, she’s from Atlanta, Georgia and also like Tidisha she’s a ‘club promoter’, which means she dressers like a ho and gets paid to get men to go to clubs- this basically makes her a perfect fit for Paradise Hotel! I’m getting the feeling that Atlanta may be this season’s Tempe.

===

[Krista Garland]

At first I thought Mena Suvari had joined this season’s cast as a chance to make some extra money, but no it’s just Krista Garland. The official Paradise Hotel 2 website dubs her a “the virgin” although I think in the modern age we live in this means she’s slept with under 20 guys. She’s 22, a hairdresser, and yup you guessed it, she’s from Arizona!

===

[Chelsea I’m-Too-Good-For-A-Last-Name]

The only Paradise Hotel 2 contestant to not have a last name listed anywhere I could find. Which leads me to believe one of two things. She’s either an overwhelming narcissist or a tranny. I’m going with the latter. She’s 26, from Los Angeles (surprise) and she’s a singer…

===

Well this rounds out this seasons set of skanks to appear on Paradise Hotel 2, one thing is for sure- they’re going to be a riot. Paradise Hotel 2 premieres February 4th on both MyNetworkTV and the Fox Reality Channel (get off your ass and check your local listings).

Initially reports of Nathan Clutter’s death were that he died in a ‘climbing accident’ in Texas on October 12th, but that ‘climbing accident’ was actually a jump from an Alltel cellular phone tower nearly 100 ft above the ground. Clutter’s just left a six inch impression in the dirt below.

Police documents have officially listed his death as a suicide and Sgt. Byron Towndrow released this statement:

“Upon completion of the investigation of this incident, all evidence, scene conditions and conversations with [Clutter’s] uncle… concludes that this incident of Sudden Death was from the result of [Clutter] taking his own life… This case can be closed. There were no findings of foul play [and] all evidence and findings show that [Clutter’s death] was a product of his own demise.”

At about 5:10AM on the morning of October 12th, just four weeks after Paradise Hotel 2 concluded filming, Nathan parked his car at the cell phone tower, climbed to the top and jumped to his death.

Clutter did not leave behind a suicide note, but in his car remained: his keys, over $200 cash, an mp3 player, other personal items, and his dog which appeared to be eating and drinking from a bowl Clutter had set for him behind the drivers seat.

Clutter’s uncle revealed that Nathan had recently been suffering from extreme bouts of depression and may (or may not have been) suffering from bi-polar disorder. Towndrow relayed what Nathan’s uncle said about him, saying:

“[He] explained that his nephew had been dealing with bouts of depression and that his family had wired $400.00 cash money to him in Arizona and talked him into coming back home to Illinois, so that they could get him checked into the V.A. hospital, and hopefully get some help with his depression.”

Fox Reality has set to debut Paradise Hotel 2 on February 4th, and plans on leaving the show in tact in its entirety.

It’s no secret that people who participate in reality television programs often go through severe bouts of depression after participating in various programs due to the amount of stress, attention, and sometimes ridicule they receive while participating. There also seems to be an adjustment period when you go from being in the spotlight to going back to your ordinary (sometimes pathetic) life. Most programs, like Big Brother, offer not only on-site psychological treatment but also free therapy sessions for participants who feel they may need someone to talk to upon departure from their given programs. There’s no word as to whether or not the production team behind Paradise Hotel 2 provided such exit treatment for their cast members or as to whether or not Clutter took advantage of such treatment.

Our thoughts and wishes are with the Clutter family and we wish them nothing but the best.

Paradise Hotel 2 contestant Nathan Clutter died in October, shortly after the filming of the series, in a climbing accident. He was 26 years old.

Nathan, originally from Arizona died on October 12, 2007 in Amarillo, Texas according the obituary posted in the Effingham Daily News.

MyNewtworkTV and the Fox Reality Channel (both of whom are airing Paradise Hotel 2) have decided they will keep all the scenes of Nathan participating in the program in tact.

Three OMG’s in one row can only mean one thing… Paradise Hotel 2 news. I recently discovered this video from MyNetworkTV.com previewing the next installment of the ever popular Paradise Hotel series. I’ve been waiting almost five years for this moment.

Let me just bask in the moment.

Ahh… it feels so nice.

There are three things you should know about the upcoming series:

1. Amanda Byram returns as host.
2. Mark Thompson ‘the official voice’ of Paradise Hotel also returns.
3. Sadly, however; Kent Weed is not producing the series. No word if we’ll get the same seizure inducing opening previews as we did the first time.

The series begins February 4th at 9:00 on MyNetworkTv and will also air TV-MA (hot) versions of the episodes on the FOX Reality Channel. I-can-not-wait. Deep breath. Deep breath.

It’s been nearly 5 years since Paradise Hotel graced our television screens, and I’ve been waiting diligently by my remote for the second season ever since. On a list of my top five favorite reality televisions shows, Paradise Hotel would be #2.

Now, my wait is over. Paradise Hotel 2 will return on Monday, February 4th at 9:00pm on MyNetworkTV (whatever channel that is!?). The best part of all…

Wait for it…

Wait for it…

They will also be airing a TV-MA rated version of Paradise Hotel 2 that will air on the cable network FOX Reality Channel at 1:00am. Imagine being able to watch the first season unedited in HD. Think of all the Toni back-sweat, Dave touching Charla’s shoulders, Amy’s horrible highlights and Zach’s fucked up grill you’d be able to see!
