Texan:
Are you watching?  I recorded it so I am looking forward to watching.

Yes, folks -- the circus has come to town! But instead of lion tamers, bearded ladies and fire-eaters, we've got a sheep-herding Perfect Stranger from Mypos, a notorious reality diva, a pair of exotic beauty queens, a spicy hip-hop songstress, a fearless Motorcross freestyler, and a "juiced-up" baseball legend...

The ultimate TV sideshow is about to begin -- on SURREAL LIFE 5!

Season Five of The Surreal Life takes a wildly mismatched group of celebrities and sticks them in a twisted sociological lab experiment in communal living. That's right, these pampered celebs must now share bathrooms, bedrooms, chores, and their private lives, all in front of the ever-present cameras.

SL5's celebs include Bronson "Balki" Pinchot, infamous Apprentice villainess Omarosa, self-titled "world's first supermodel" Janice Dickinson, British model sensation Caprice, Sandy "Pepa" Denton of Salt 'n Pepa, extreme motocross star Carey Hart, and last but certainly not least, former baseball all-star and steroid poster boy Jose Canseco!

This season's surreal adventures include an outrageous burlesque show that puts Moulin Rouge to shame, a bowling competition with some very "special" league players, a gnarly Motorcross race, a swingin' trip to Las Vegas, a freaky softball game with celebrity look-alikes, and a memorable encounter with demented SL security guard Andy Dick!

There's also a little cross-dressing, some heart wrenching revelations, plenty of cat fights including the ultimate diva showdown, and a shocking "last supper" that has to be seen to be believed!

Surreal Life is not your average reality show. Their incredible life stories, career baggage, and strong points of view make for intense moments that take the viewer from laughing to crying, disappointment to hope, and anger to joy, all in the same episode.

Reality has never been more Surreal...

okay here is VH1's recap  http://www.vh1.com/shows/dyn/the_surreal_life_5/92335/episode_about.jhtml

Andy Dick, Surreal Life Security, greets the cast and conducts a security check on each person before allowing them entrance into the house. Andy breaks from the pressure and quits before the last cast member is revealed. Six cast members have arrived and wonder who number seven will be. The Surreal Times reveals that Jose Canseco will be the 7th cast member and has a long wrap sheet including domestic violence and aggravated assault charges. Upon arrival into the house, Jose is greeted by side glances and a slew of questions from Omarosa. After the interrogation Pepa cooks a Jamaican dinner so the cast can eat together and bond, but Janice doesn't let anyone else talk. The cast begins to get annoyed with her behavior, except for Bronson who gets a little turned on. After dinner the cast gathers in the kitchen where Bronson showers Janice with affection, but Janice doesn't appreciate being groped and threatens to quit if Bronson touches her again. She storms off, but Pepa convinces her to rejoin the rest of the cast because she is the "star."

I ned to finish watching the show, only saw 10 - 15 minutes then recorded the rest.  This cast is going to be fighting and there is definetly be some drama.  AFter I watch the rest I will give my own recap. 

Come on Omarosa, janice from ATM, Jose C  man what a season!

Trevor:
This is a fairly intriguing cast.  I'm a big Oakland A's fan and Jose Canseco was one of our starts when I was a kid.  Him, Rickey Henderson, and Dave Stewart were my three favorite players growing up. 

Texan:
Okay, I finished watching the show and have determined I will set the DVR for this show each week.  There is going to be lots of drama and fights on this show!

Okay they all come in one by one and pick their beds.  One room has a bed to it's self, Bronson was first to arrive so he picked this room ~ smart boy.  Next was  Omarosa she picks the room with 2 beds and Janice is next and Omarosa tells her she is sleeping with her.  Janice is already b!tching about Omarosa telling her what to do.  The last bedroom has a bunk bed and 2 full size beds  ~ so this leaves Pepa, Caprice, Carey hart and Hose Canseco in the same room.  Jose chooses to sleep on the couch as she snores and the bed it little.

Fist off the house is decorated like a circus  ~ stripes, games, LOUD colors, crazy plastic lights and a 3 legged dog.  You read that right a 3 legged dog, he was hurt in a carnival accident.  I would hate to stay in this house that long I think I would get a headache.

Omarosa arrives in capree pants and HIGH heels and attitude, says she does not like sharing or sleeping around other people.  UUMM Hello have you seen this show?  Did you think they were going to build you your own house?. Bronson was like where did she think she was going?  And shortly you see her with her house slippers on, guess the high heels were for looks.  She is saying how she did not know who any of the people were, except for Pepa.  Janice comes in and well she is Janice obnoxious and loud.  Then we have Caprice who was born in the USA and raised in CA and then became a British model.  UUHHH OOOHH you think Janice will critic her, well of course the first chance she got.  Pepa shows up and is like I have to sleep with 4 other people? She is by far the most normal person there.  Carey Hart ~ motorcycle guy from X games shows up and the ladies are like oh hello here is where you are staying.  Pepa asks about his tattoos and how many and he says 1 it is all one scene ~ you have to see the boy to appreciate the comment.

They do not know who the other house guest is, then they get the Surreal life  newspaper...it tells them it is Jose and inside the paper is his rap sheet.  Every thing that he has done bad, every arrest, fight you name it.  The ladies are FREAKING out.  Jose finally shows up and they are glaring at him, stand offish and look scared.  They show him the house and he talks and they are not real friendly.  Then Omarosa "Ms I am the greatest" starts interrogating Jose ~ Have you taking Steroids, did you hit your wife all kinds of SH!T.  He answered all the questions and kept his cool.  He said he does not have a temper and Omarosa said I DO.

They had Dinner and Janice is wasted ~ I know this surprised you that a  Surreal life person is drunk.  She asked Pepa how she was discovered and then interrupted or started talking about other things like 4 times and then told her to get to the point.  Well after dinner Bronson came up behind Janice and put his arm around her waste and she freaked out saying he groped her and wanted to quit.  She is going to be something else on this show.  Pepa convinces her to stay.

The end of the show has the 3 legged dog, Lucky peeing in the house.  They only took him out for like 5 minutes and then came in.  Put the leash on him to go in the back yard.  I am sure the Surreal life could afford a fence let him out and he will do his business and come back.

Next week they will be bowling against a special league team.  Shows a comment from Omarosa saying I just do not like people making fun of special needs people.

Here is VH1's recap http://www.vh1.com/shows/dyn/the_surreal_life_5/92336/episode_about.jhtml

Omarosa and Bronson start an all day tiff based on Bronson's belief that she is one of the fakest people he has ever met. Jose recruits the cast to assist him with his book signing. He impresses his roommates with the way he handles some inappropriate fans and Janice deems him worthy of her attention. And later, the cast learns they will bowl for charity but are unprepared for the talents of the Sunshine Strikers. The cast discovers it will be playing against a professional bowling team of Special Ed. young adults -- and just to make things more interesting, the winning team will be rewarded with a pizza party, while the losers will be stuck cleaning bowling shoes! Janice crosses the line over and over again, revealing her wild child side to the rest of the cast and the Sunshine Strikers prove to be formidable opponents.
