I agree that the one thing I like about Dr. Rey is his willingness to go to poor countries and help people. I watched the episode about the guy with the cleft palate selling fruit on the corner and Dr. Rey did the surgery for free, and I was in tears. The man could barely speak with his issue, and was so shy and had suffered so much from it, and Dr. Rey made a real significant change to his daily life, this was not about implants or sucking out fat, this was about real healing and helping someone who was in need and suffering, not some woman who wanted bigger boobs...

Good points!

Ok, I have to add that I see a compassionate person behind Rey''s eyes. I think they have to ham it up to a degree for tv because I am sure they are strongly encouraged to do so- how else would they keep their ratings. I think the point of all the drama with Mrs. Rey is that they want to show that stay at home mothers all experience the same kind of things regardless of SES. It certainly has us all hooked, eh?

I have to say that in the context of the show he is on, Dr. Rey is pretty much how alot of Beverly Hills plastic surgeons are...like it or not. Yes, his fashion sense is questionable and he seriously could afford an image consultant or stylist. Yes, his wife has some serious issues and yes, he is out of touch with how much his life as a surgeon is distracting him from the issues at home. On that, I agree.


Creepy? Icky? I think that is obviously only based on what one is prone to see as a result of the show and how it is edited. He, Dr. Rey, has done alot of pro-bono work in Mexico and other countries on people and kids who really need help and could never EVER get the kind of surgery he provides them.


I have been to many and I mean MANY plastic surgeon''s offices and his office is the norm from my experience. As for whether or not he is actually ''hitting'' on certain patients...erh...I see it as he is so passionate about making sure they feel beautiful that he plows them with compliments to make them feel safe and reassured that he has their best interest at heart. He has never been inappropiate on the show and I researched him further to see if he has ever been accused of anything perv-like and he has not.


His personality may not come across like one thinks a doctor should be but for plastic surgery, its a whole different ballgame.


As for Slade...He and Jo in my opinion never went together, I thought. And yes, I thought the age difference was just a huge part of things. She is self absorbed to the max and he is looking for someone to exist mostly for him and that is NOT Jo. I think I felt he was a loser cuz he smothered Jo in stuff and never saw what the two of them lacked as a couple.


I detest Jo and I truly hope she is off the show. Yuck...

After reading all of the views shared here, I had to share my own. Whether anyone agrees with me or not, is irrelevant to me. We each have our own take on this and that''s fine with me.

Hahaha, actually, I agree with you word for word. I don''t like Jo. Felt a little bit sorry for her one time, but then she did something the next second that reminded me why I don''t like her.

Too funny your observations highlighted! ITA! There was an episode awhile back where Slade went to do a sales pitch and he tried to impress the man with where he lived (and why would you start a sales pitch like that anyway???). It had the opposite effect and the man pretty much shut him down and had him escorted out. Apparently the man he was pitching to was far more well off than Slade. Slade was just too big a bafoon to figure out he''d already blown it before he''d sat down.

Hahaha, yeah. I remember that episode and it highlights what I don''t like about him. The area has some super successful people. People who I could understand how they might be a little conceited b/c they are super successful. Slade''s not, even tho he acts like he''s the biggest hotshot in the area. And yes, he''s too big a buffoon to realize this.

I think Hugh Hefner is very creepy and he is with that 27 year old playmate. GROSS!!!

 

[lumpkin]

And don''t forget the, like, 22 year old and the 30 year old, too. He is beyond creepy, LOL!

Who saw that he is now engaged to Holly Madison, the "head" honcho of the three? What will happen to the other two? Kendra is the DUMBEST girl I have ever seen. Her mom shows up at the mansion and is on tv like this is normal, her 22 year old daughter living with an 80 year old head of magazine that deals with nude women, and she is one of THREE ladies in residence. Can she think this is a good move for her daughter? Apparently so.

I am glad I am not the only one that thinks that. I would be so upset if my daughters did that. I guess we are all different but Hugh and those girls

Ha Ha this topic made me laugh. I vote for Dr. Diamond on Dr. 90210. (Tom vs. Micheal is a toss up).

As for Girls Next Door..... Holly seems a little off. Like she is just a step off beat. She tries to be funny and her obsession with Coco the monkey and having a baby with Hef drives me nuts. Otherwise the show is entertaining.
