I watched some of this tonight, and now I fully believe this entire show is scripted, or at least everyone is in on it except for maybe the girl. I mean, when she calls her parents to tell them about her "fiance", why are there cameras at her parents house? If they truly have no idea what is going on, why would they let people with cameras come into their house?

The previews for next week look hilarious.
"I took a monster shit this morning." Classic!
This show has me rolling each week. Thank god I have a TiVo. I have used the instant replay so much with this show. I've been laughing too hard to hear the dialogue.
Man, I hope they put this show on DVD, I'd buy it in an instant.

I loved it when he was trying on new clothes and he says:
"A new outfit to meet the hoes" (insert demonic laugh here)
This show is hysterical!!
I can't wait till next week also when the two families meet

This shows is consistently one of the funniest on TV currently. Oh man, Randi is the perfect victim for this "game'.
Loved it when Steve acted like he sharted while doing some yoga with Randi.
The conversations that Randi had with Steve's mom and sister were hysterical in their frankness and Randi's incredulity.
Steve's dad's penchant for nekkid hottubing had to unnerve Randi. I was waiting for Steve to join in. Plus the sister's "dead woman float" act was just as unnerving.
Oh man, next week, with Randi's parents and siblings in da house is going to be comical as well.

Randi seems to have loosened up a bit. She's actually doing a pretty good job faking it when other people are around.
Steve's list, while funny, might have been a little over the top. But Randi didn't catch on it seems.

I laughed out loud so many times that I couldn't believe it. This show has no right being this funny. Even I got uncomfortable when Steve was giving the love gazes to Randi. And how uptight is Randi's family? Her mom talking about bringing the claws out and taking her home if she doesn't like the guy? Wow, that family is crazier than Steve's.

I admit, this one looked dumb in the previews, the premise looked too confusing... however, it seems that it I keep catching it and after last nights episode - I have to say it is extremely funny.
In fact, I can't remember the last time I laughed out loud watching a show as many times as I did last night!
Now, that the families are finally at the mansion, Randi has to act like she really likes the fiance - and her family is so conservative and overbearing about theri little girl ,that next week will surely be even funnier.
Steven's actor family was great,
Fake Dad after taking off his shorts in the jacuzzi "Wow, one of these jets is treating me like a prom date"
Steven to Randi by the pool "I just totally farted"
Her reactions to his antics are so classic, it's fun to watch the prom queen squirm!
I seriously cannot wait until they reveal to the girl that the whole thing was a put on, I liked "Joe Schmo", but this is wayyyyyyyyyyy better.
Other than Steven having great lines and improvisation skills, I think that seeing the fat guy wreak havoc on the "cheerleader" just makes this even better.

I gotta say, I was way too hard on Randi early on. Yeah, she's wound tight, but coming out of THAT family, she's doing pretty well. Did anyone explain to them that she's an ADULT? Good lord, talk about an overbearing family. Steve is lucky it isn't for real, because I can't imagine anybody marrying into a family like that ... forget it.
Randi seemed a lot more relaxed this episode. She actually cracked a smile a few times, which was good. It's nice to know she does have a personality.

I think Randi will be totally untouchable after this show since her family is just too uptight and controlling for most.

I know families like hers. Far too up tight for me, but there are lost of them out there, and I am sure they are part of the reason she was selected for this.
