It came in 2nd in the 9 pm timeslot, beating The Contender, the Trump movie, and whatever was on WB and UPN. Also, came in 2nd in the 10 pm, behind SVU.

Those are pretty good numbers even with the weak competition.


The season finale of "House," 11.9/18, kept FOX in the lead at 9 p.m. "Rob and Amber's Wedding," featuring the "Survivor"/"Amazing Race" couple, did a 6.6/10 for CBS. "The Contender" closed out with a 5.7/9 for NBC, dropping ABC's movie "Trump Unauthorized" to fourth. "One Tree Hill" held steady for The WB. UPN got little noise from "Britney & Kevin: Chaotic," 1.8/3, and the premiere of "The Bad Girl's Guide," 1.3/2.

At 10 p.m., the season finale of "Law & Order: SVU" posted a 10.6/17 for NBC. "Rob & Amber's Wedding" delivered a 7.1/11 for CBS, while "Trump Unauthorized" finished at 3.9/6.

it was a great show, i even teared up a couple of times while watching.

i never watched survivor or amazing race but tuned this show on for a half hour. This guy Rob is the most unlikeable jerk i have ever seen. If Amber is that dumb to marry him she deserves what she gets. No way this marriage last more then 3 years. Have fun Amber.

Red Dog 05-25-05 01:24 PM

Ah - another Rob fan. :lol:

It was pretty funny when Rob was driving that golf cart around Atlantis. It seemed like there was still a little "Race" left in him.

Rob is the ULTIMATE Alpha Male.

He and his kind will ALWAYS get the hot women. Get used to it.

You're just jealous and if you think he the most unlikeable jerk you've ever seen, then you didn't really watch the show and not seeing Survivor and The Amazing Race doesn't makes you a good judge. Yes, he's an alpha male and he's sarcastic and sometimes abrasive, but he's a totally sweet guy too and he's very kind as well. I love how protective he is of Amber. If I was a woman, I'd marry Rob.

If i was a guy id marry Amber,oh wait... i am a guy :D I think Rob's a lucky man ;)

I liked the difference between the gifts:

Ambuh: Here's a painting.
Rob: Oh cool, here's a completely furnished house.
Ambuh: Erm ... wow. OK, well, here's some sand.
Rob: Great, here's some diamond earrings.

:thumbsup: Which one won the million again? ;) However, you have to admit, that was a pretty kickass painting; and then to go the extra mile (albeit with some help from CBS...) to get the autographs. Amber kicks ass.

I loved Rob in the furniture store...."I'll take 2 of those, 3 of those, everything from here to there....." It reminded of me Back to School when Thornton Mellon is in the book store buying up everything for everyone.

I found it quite entertaining. That was a pretty cool way to do a wedding.

Or when the Al Czervik was doing the same thing in Caddyshack.

Except he didn't buy the hat. ;)

I'm a Robfather fan dating all the way back to Marquesas but I didn't watch this. Actually, I didn't watch TAR either, but that was more of a time conflict thing.

Bill Needle 05-26-05 12:36 PM

It was schmaltzy, but mildly entertaining. I watched The Contender and this with the wife on DVR. Even minus the commercials it dragged a bit. But my crush on Ambuh is unabated. She always seems to do or say exactly what a guy would love his girl to do or say. If she could blink her eyes and perform magic she would be a real life Jeannie. Rob knows he is marrying way out of his league, and will not likely screw it up because of that. I should know...I did the same thing.

Boston Rob Joins CBS' 'Early Show'

Tuesday, November 22, 2005
10:51 AM PT

Rob Mariano is putting his Machiavellian ways behind him. But he's still on TV.
The kinder, gentler Boston Rob is now part of "The Early Show," CBS' morning-news program. Mariano will be taking part in a series called "Rob to the Rescue," in which he travels to locales across the country and tries to help people in need -- sort of a smaller-scale "Extreme Makeover: Home Edition" or "Three Wishes."

http://images.zap2it.com/20050429/robmariano_240.jpg

His first appearance on "The Early Show" was Tuesday (Nov. 22), when he traveled to a small town in Michigan to help a woman who rescues animals renovate her facilities.

The do-gooding is something of a switch from Mariano's previous TV persona. He became known as a master manipulator on two editions of CBS' "Survivor" -- including last year's "All-Stars" -- and built on that reputation when he ran "The Amazing Race" with his future wife, fellow "Survivor" Amber Brkich.
Prior to finding and extending his reality-show fame, Mariano worked as a foreman for a construction company in his hometown.


Wow! Only on planet Earth! :lol:

When I saw this thread bumped, my first thought was that they were divorcing.
