Sober House Season 1 Episode 5 (S01E05)


Officially this house has been renamed to Unsober House seeing how nobody in it can stay sober to save their life!

Seth is just insane. Just because David (Mary Carey's boyfriend) is dissing him he goes and cries in the corner like a little girl. Why does he even react to anything that loser says? I mean obviously David has some serious ego problems and just feels good when he can put others down but to take it so hard and vanish only to do drugs again? That just shows he is not going to stay clean. Every time someone says anything about Crazy Town and how he has no career anymore he turns to drugs for comfort and feeling of stardom?

Why Mary Carey is with someone like that is also way beyond me. The way he talks to her, treats her and she doesn't do anything about it makes me think she wants to be treated like that. Being with someone who would treat her good seem to be something she doesn't want. David and Mary kind of remind me of Sam Lufti and Britney Spears didn't they do the same thing?

I still believe that the only person coming out of it sober is going to be Rodney. They are way too self absorb and not capable of living their own life without caring about what others think or do.

The next episode of Sober House airs Thursday Feb. 19th 10pm EST on Vh1!

Sober House Season 1 Episode 4 (S01E04)


This episode Andy Dick moved into the house. I really can not shake the feeling that he is acting the whole time the camera is on him. First I thought that it will be very interesting when he is in the house just to hear his story and all but that changed pretty quickly. Maybe next episode it will be different...

Amber got invited to a party by Kip Brennan (Hockey player, playing for the Hershey Bears, AHL). She got all excited because she went out with him and thought he would never ask her out again. Well her arriving at the party didn't really seem like he just invited her. I think she was just one of many girls he invited to have as many hot chick as possible there. The way he left her all standing there by herself and just paid attention to her later on after she started drinking. His whole behavior made him look like a jerk! She should have never gone to the party in the first place. Party and being sober just don't mix well. I think to enjoy a party you have got to be drunk otherwise you just see how stupid the others are. Amber wanted to go so badly and also didn't listen to any of the advice from the others. After staying sober for a while at the party she just gave in and started drinking because she didn't want to be the one standing in the corner that nobody talks to. Well if your only choice of having fun means partying then I do feel quite sorry for you! Because if staying sober means being the girl in the corner nobody talks to then it is definitely not the right choice of hangout for a sober person! Being back to drunk Amber she ended up sleeping with Kip and wait for the pick up line:

Amber: Do you like the dress I bought?

Kip: Yeah, it will look good on the floor

and gone they are....

Well I guess her call to the house that she will come home late is just a first sign of her being on the straight way back to addiction.

The preview for the next episode was good so I am looking forward to that one.

The next episode of Sober House airs Thursday Feb. 12th 10pm EST on Vh1!

Sober House Season 1 Episode 3 (S01E03)


In the beginning of the episode the show continued from the second episode as Steven got arrested. Of course the rest of the house was in chaos which is totally understandable. Steven did get bailed out the next morning but only to go to treatment to sober up once again. And who are we all kidding he is not going to sober up no matter what they do. I think he is just in way too deep in the whole thing. And what was up Jennifer Gimenez showing her black and blue spots on her legs. Was that saying thats what Steven did to her or what? How can they just show that and not make it clear. It could have been that it wasn't him and she just wanted to say that that is what could have happened. But the way she did it made it seem like Steven did that. I think she should have said something instead of just showing it. But maybe they will clarify it next episode since they are going to show Steven then the footage of him being high!

Mary Carey, Seth Binzer, Amber Smith and Nikki McKibbin went out to party at Les Deux Nightclub. I guess if you are a addict thats the right choice for you being around people that do what you are not supposed to. Seth took off and went to some other club while the other 3 did stay at Les Deux drinking juice and water. They did come back to the house in time for their curfew too unlike Seth. Thinking he did drugs they all were kind of worried until he came home at 2:30am sober and with food. Rodney was the only one to not go partying but go out with Jennifer for dinner.

This episode Jennifer is coming to the group meeting so they can talk about what happened the night before. I was expecting Dr. Drew to support Jennifer in her decision to call the cops on Steven but it really didn't seem like it. I have totally lost any respect I had for Dr. Drew. The way he handle it was wrong. In the beginning they said they get warnings and if they do it again they get kicked out. Dr. Drews also always says it's about setting boundaries and that there have to be rules. Well I guess he can make, break and bend the rules as he pleases. Steven should be kicked out if Dr. Drew wants it or not. He didn't respect the house rules, Jennifer or the other people in the house.

To me this episode really showed that this show is not about helping the people it is just about making money, giving people what they want to see and exploiting the celebrities going on the show. I have said before that the show is not helping anybody but Vh1 and Dr. Drews bank account. Now we all saw it on TV!

The next episode of Sober House airs Thursday 10pm EST on Vh1!

Sober House Season 1 Episode 2 (S01E02)


Steven's high continues this episode. He keeps using and finally Jennifer Gimenez is calling the cops on him. Seeing him high made me think why do people do drugs? What is so cool about looking like that? I do believe someone must have brought the drugs in for him though. Because didn't they search his things and made sure the house is safe for the others as well? So where did the drugs come from? Someone must have brought it in for him! I really think that it was right to call the cops on Steven. He has had his chance the day before. Also talking to Dr. Drew he told him that he felt guilt and didn't feel good about the relapse, but it seems like addicts say what you want to hear but shouldn't Dr. Drew know that and shouldn't he not have believed him so quickly? Seeing Steven walking high through the house trying to find his room was just hilarious!

This time they had a BBQ at the Sober House. Everyone invited friends and family and some of them had quite some attitude. Seeing how Steven relapse it kind of makes me think that none of them were ready to step out of rehab and they should have stayed in rehab for longer. But as I said before I don't believe any of them are going to make it and stay clean. Most of them probably will relapse pretty soon. And Rodney is still my #1 guess of who is going to the only one staying sober!

Next episode they decide to go into a nightclub so lets see how that works out for them.

The next episode airs Thursday (Jan. 29nd) 10pm EST on Vh1.

Sober House Season 1 Episode 1 (S01E01)


We have seen 2 seasons of celebrities trying to get sober on Celebrity Rehab, or shall I better say pretended to get sober for money because they are totally broke? It's no secret they where paid to be on the show and I believe that was probably the main reason most of them where even on the show. What else did they have going on to make money? They got to pay bills too and drugs ain't cheap either so what better to do than going to treatment for a couple weeks, collect a check and hit it again. It is a good thing VH1 is trying to do by showing that taking drugs is not all cool like most think seeing how big name celebrities are addicts, but I don't think this show is affecting anybody.

So now Celebrity Rehab presents Sober House. Some celebrities of both season are back and live together in a Sober House where they are trying to start a sober life. So who is in Sober House? Well from the first season you have Seth "Shifty" Binzer and Mary Carey, from the second season Amber Smith, Rodney King, Steven Adler and Nikki McKibbin. I really don't think that most of them are going actually are going to live a sober life, except Rodney maybe.

The first episode everyone moved into the house where Jennifer Gimenez, who was a addict herself, is the House Mother. Steven showed up high and she found Heroin and syringes on him. After calling Dr. Drew Steven had to leave with Will (who was one of the techs on celebrity Rehab) to stay with him over the night and to return to Sober House in the morning.

It seems like the season is going to be very interesting especially later on with Andy Dick (he is not in the house yet).

The next episode airs Thursday (Jan. 22nd) 10pm EST on Vh1.

Here are some clips from the first episode
