![]() ![]() Stan but I could never really "get" him, or figure out what earthly purpose he actually served by being on the show. if you want to be on television, live for free for a minimum of six weeks, then there can be no holds barred, respecting, of course, the identify of close friends and relatives. This show should have stuck to the original formula i.e. I smelled a rat when the cause of the amnesia victim's loss of memory was never explained - hinted at - but never explained. This show slowly but steadily began to concentrate more on what would make great television and keep the ratings up. I could not believe how warm and loving the life coaches could be on a day-to-day basis, and then just rip the poor women to shreds during the Board of Review. The artificiality of it used to drive me insane! I am half-black, so race is not my issue here. ![]() I knew that show was in trouble from the opening screen shots where they show Iyanla with a tear. I just wanted to say that the show rapidly went downhill after the move to California AND RANA was not expendable. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Review of Crush in The New Hampshire Review.Richard Siken reads "Litany in Which Certain Things Are Crossed Out" for Apostrophe Cast.↑ Search results = au:Richard Siken, WorldCat, OCLC Online Computer Library Center Inc."Poetry Personas: Three well-known writers reflect on new, contemporary work". ↑ The Best American Erotic Poems (edited by David Lehman), New York: Simon & Schuster, 2008. ![]() Tucson, AZ: Poetry Center, Įxcept where noted, bibliographical information courtesy WorldCat. ![]()
