Trashy Friday: Eye Candy and Married at First Sight

Welcome back to another edition of Trashy Fridays!!!! Today we will be covering Mtv’s “Eye Candy” and FYI’s “Married at First Sight: The First Year”. Let’s get to the wonderful trashiness.

Eye Candy:

This week again, we are given another episode where Lindy will be helping out the Cyber Crimes unit some more. I personally am not a fan of this, and I would rather see the creeper stalker do his thing! Tommy decides he has to help his ex girlfriend, a neurosurgeon, after an “accident” during brain surgery caused everyone to pass out while a poor kid’s brains were exposed. (This caused more problems and was kinda gross to see. Thus getting this girl in trouble.) Tommy invites Lindy to help her out. Lindy gets into the hospital and it shows that the hacker is located in the neurological ICU. So she decides to make check herself in so she can investigate. She invites her work friend to hack into the hospital so it shows that she has a serious neurological disorder. (Syphilis of all things XD) The friend tells her the symptoms and Lindy is forced to faint. (Which was done in a very poor and comical fashion) As she investigates, Lindy meets this dying girl and they seem to connect. Things get awkward as the investigation continues due to the fact they make it look like Tommy and Lindy are a couple and they have to do “unnecessary” tests on Lindy. The tests eventually involve the help of Tommy’s ex. (To get Lindy out of the tests) The dying girl’s heart machine stops and she dies. They discover that the dying girl created a virus that would attack the hospital because they caused her to be denied a heart transplant and she wanted to die. (I know this sounds cruel, but if you really wanted that to happen you could just refuse treatment, right?? Problem solved and no Eye Candy episode needed) To stop the virus because chaos has ensued in the hospital, they must get a key thing that can override it. (They find on video that she swallowed it, but they never indicate when or anything. Like what if she got rid of it. There are so many unanswered questions here.) Tommy and Lindy go to the morgue and have a dramatic scene where Tommy has to cut the girl open. Lindy’s friend finds a youtube video to show them how to do it professional style. (Like why, just cut her open and get it out.) They attempt to cut from her throat to her stomach. (Which I do not understand, why not just cut open the stomach and save some work?) So Tommy stands over her with a scalpel, just standing hesitating hesitating. (OMG just do it!!!!!!!!) Lindy comes over for a cute moment and says let’s do it together, still waiting. Then a miracle happens and the ex comes in and they get her to do it. (Well what was the point of that scene, I did not like that.) They get the key and Lindy discovers that creepy stalker is watching(because he is texting her) and she lets him help her decipher the password. (Which seems to piss her off, and creepy stalker notices.) The episode ends with the Cyber Crimes unit saving the day and Jake giving Lindy a present for blowing off their date. (Which was a good idea on his part, because apparently Lindy cooked and she didn’t do well.)

This episode I have to say wasn’t my favorite at all.. I want to see Mr. Creepy-stalker do his thing. I’m very hopeful that this will happen next episode, because I kinda don’t care what Lindy does to help the Cyber crimes unit.

Married at First Sight:

I was watching this over the weekend and happened to see in the trailer that Jason and Courtney are going to be having lots of problems (Major problems). So I had to watch it this and it needed to be on this series for the week.

So the Holiday season is starting!

Jason and Cortney: Jason and Cortney start out by arguing(again) about Thanksgiving plans. Cortney is very unhappy right now, and is shown being very emotional. (Since she gave up a part of herself after marriage, which I thought they discussed all ready, and she misses her family.) Jason is being really really nice and is willing to give her his day off. Honestly I feel like Cortney should appreciate it that he is willing to do that for her, but I don’t see that. The day after Thanksgiving, they have a celebration with their friends. Jason is sad about his mom, but he is happy that Cortney stayed for him. (I like how appreciative he is!)  Cortney decides that it would be best for her if she visited her family. (Because she is so unhappy) She says “that she needs a break” and this concerns Jason.  He is confused about the status of their relationship. Jason thinks he must make a decision because he isn’t happy either. When Cortney returns from North Carolina and is shocked to find their apartment empty.  She calls Jason, but it won’t be revealed til the next episode what he says.

Doug and Jamie: Doug apparently feels like he isn’t getting enough sex and this causes him to think Jamie isn’t attracted to him. (I thought things were getting better, what happened???) So she decides to play a game with dice and they each get to tell each other what to do based on the roll. (Interesting.)  This is really funny to watch and they seem to have fun. Haha Doug had to put a pillow on his crotch after a while. (This is so awkwardly funny, I have no idea how else to describe it.) Jamie and Doug also plan Thanksgiving and they decide to invite both families. They unlike Jason and Courtney easily agreed with each other. (I love them as a couple.)  It’s Thanksgiving! Everyone seems to have a good time, but Jamie’s mom didn’t come. This made her very very upset and she gets emotional. Jamie finds it hard to be happy during this time, because she keeps getting reminded that her mom didn’t care to come. (I feel so bad for her and Doug is sad for her as well.)  Doug decides to reach out to Vaughn.  Vaughn is happy and sort of dating some girl. It’s good to see Vaughn again. Doug and Jamie take Christmas pictures. (Jamie is really into the tradition thing.)

Monet: Monet goes to the gym and attends a surfing class. (Looks so fun, I want to try it someday!) She goes with Clay, her gbf, and they get to talk about the dates he has hooked her up with. (He’s adorable.) Monet reveals that she has finalized her divorce and now has seemed to move on from Vaughn. Monet and Cortney hang out and they get to talk. (They end up somehow talking about guys with little penises.. haha I love Monet)

This episode was very very good. Jason and Cortney are going to continue to have problems and Jamie and Doug will continue to be happy. (Like I said I love them as a couple. However Cortney is still annoying.. Monet is starting to find herself and I am very happy for her.  I did like that we saw Vaughn, but I do not think we will see more of him any time soon.)
