Actually, I was rather surprised at how likable Corolla was on a oneshot home makeover show he did for HGTV a year or so ago. And, he's supposedly a big gearhead, so he might be able to convey enthusiasm for the show's topic.

he's actually very intelligent, I think.

I like Aaron a whole lot. Double earrings get me every time - on a man!

Lisa - not quite warmed up to her yet. That squinting thing she does is not attractive. And the fawning over Martha Stewart (including tears!) was ridiculous.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

I still can't stand Lisa. She seems very fake.

That's too bad about Amy. I loved her and her show.

Enough with the bad reality show people with my freaking name.

I'm sorry! You're lovely and sweet and not at all fake.

At least she's rocking the cool Louise Brooks bob (even if I have a feeling she has no idea who Louise Brooks was) . And I'll take squinty eyes over kitty butt face every single time.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Lisa and Kelsey (Kelly? Really Perky One) both seem like they're trying WAY! TOO! HARD! I think in both cases it comes from a genuinely deep desire to win, but it's unfortunately off-putting on camera.

THIS. And I don't think Lisa's choice of makeup is doing her eyes any favors.

Martha was much friendlier than I thought she would be, but Lisa and Kelsey's fangirling was ... a little weird.

I like Aaron so far. And Shane, even though he doesn't have a chance in the world, I think.

Kelsey (Kelly? Really Perky One)

I've dubbed her Tracy Flick and I don't think I'll ever be able to see her as anything but Tracy Flick.
