  1. There appears to be speculation on Facebook that Carson was only contracted to appear on Celebrity for 2 weeks. Is this likely? He was awesome. Sad to see him go. And so many people seem to love him.

      1. Yes, a fair bit of speculation on FB that Carson was on a contract for a set amount of time. He has been hugely popular and quite a few are wondering how he got less votes than Lisa and Nat. He didn’t seem at all surprised to be leaving.
        Anyway, guess we will never know. He has been lots of fun anyway…looking forward to his new show.

        1. No source from what I’ve observed. Heaps of speculation though. Lots of claims that it’s “rigged”. Which we get all the time with these shows I suppose. I realise it’s prob just the usual case of people not voting because they were sure he’d get through given his popularity. Just curious:-)

    1. People said the same thing about Tom Arnold. But it seems that with every reality show people always do the old ‘It’s all Rigged’ without really having any evidence to back it up.

  2. I agree 🙁 I was really looking forward to the new series but it just isn’t the same. The creaters aren’t working on the show anymore. Loving MAFS, tho!!

    1. Oh, I’m sure Carson did more than alright for himself financially. He deserved it though as he was so entertaining. Really thought that he would win, so very surprising to see him go over Lisa and Nat. Great promo for his upcoming show though…

  3. Both Australian Story and Four Corners were really good last night. On the other hand House Husbands relies 100% on star power. no story, no continuity, no nothing. When in doubt … cast Delta Goodrem.
