...Richard's days may be numbered. Susan seems ready to bolt the bloc, Kelly looks up for grabs, and now that the island's females have caught a fish, they've turned on him. Only Sean's alphabet-voting method - which was very humane, sure, until it drew Richard's gang to Jenna like sharks to blood - saved Richard's blurry butt this time...

...comes with the territory. These films are not easy to make. Everybody knows when we go into it there will be physical things - tough stuff to go through like working in a tank with water cannons and the gimbal and the locking bolt and creating 100-foot wave effects.

More creative types of interactivity included the friend finder on Bolt, the reader poetry on Gurl and digital snapshots of Alloy members posing with celebrities.

When the final ratings came in, Alloy and Bolt were the clear winners, with Kibu in the middle of the pack and Gurl running last. The interesting thing is that Alloy and Bolt are aimed at both boys and girls. So does that mean that girls don't really want a site of their own? Tough question.
