Real in '06, pt. 2

The countdown concludes after the jump...

5. Danny Bonaduce to producers: Turn your cameras off [Watch]

You know Danny Bonaduce's stressed when he's asking for the cameras to be turned off instead of toward him. But such was the case during Breaking Bonaduce 2, when Danny and his then-estranged wife were staying in Boston so that Danny could pick up an honor from Harvard. In the extended version of the scene above (which didn't make it to broadcast), Danny bickers about being filmed and then bickers and about bickering as Gretchen holds her head, maybe out of embarrassment, maybe because this happened in the wee hours of dawn and she was trying to keep herself propped up. "This is silly and embarrassing," Danny notes at one point, using five words no one ever thought he'd say.

4. Debra Wilson to ghost: Get out...of me [Watch]

Over the course of the pilot episode of Celebrity Paranormal Project, Debra Wilson went from being known for her comedic work on MADtv to stark raving mad. After competing her final task, Debra saves the best for last when she freaks out back at base, giving her fellow CPPers the biggest scare yet and, at one point, implies that she's been possessed by the ghost that's haunting the cult commune they're investigating. "She just has to let it out," says one of the celebs in the understatement of the episode. CPP is a show whose very concept is based on being touched by a presence -- Debra took it up a whole notch by acting straight-up touched.

3. Angie to Fit Club: Die, diet, die! [Watch]

In one of the most dramatic Celebrity Fit Club displays in the show's history, pandemonium broke out in the middle of the season when the teams swapped members and Vinny Pastore questioned Dr. Ian and Harvey's methods of assigning weight-loss goals. The kicker was Angie Stone storming out of the panel meeting, ending it prematurely and throwing her future on the show (and the show itself) into uncertainty (hell hath no fury like a woman on her cell phone). It took some convincing to get her back, but when she did, she was more determined than ever. For a show that often portrays weight-loss in such an upbeat light, Angie's frustration was a palpable burst of reality for the viewing audience. It made her redemption and renewed determination that much more hopeful.

2. New York to the girls: Welcome me back! [Watch]

We can't say enough about New York's contribution to Flavor of Love -- the show, simply, would not be the same without her. So, instead of going over the obvious, check the clip above -- it's an extended version of the first interaction between New York and the FoL 2 girls. It's hilarious to think that a detailed public examination of one woman's sexual history with Flav was the calm before New York's multi-episode storm, but hey, that's Celebreality for you

1. The girls to New York: Reow! [Watch]

If New York was an earthquake that shook the FoL 2 house, surely the mass attempt at revenge from many of the girls was a sizable aftershock. The FoL 2 reunion was the perfect cap on the show -- explosive, chaotic and over-the-top. Any other way simply wouldn't do.

I purchased "Flavor of love 2" and did not get "The Reunion". That was wrong!!!1 It should have been included in the disc. It was part of the program and should NOT have been left out. Who does not want to see "Miss Michelle" and FLAV face off? Fans should not be treated this way.

I perchased "Flavor of Love 2" and the reunion was not on the discs. That was part of the show and should not have been left out. Who does not want to see the face off of "Miss Michelle" and Flav? Not to mention the return of New York. This is not fair to fans.

Bootz Delishis and Buckwild shouldve beat New York's ass
