The Glass House 2012 Premiere Episode Recap: Meet The Contestants

The day has finally arrived for ABC. The premiere of The Glass House 2012 has arrived and no one can stop them now, even though CBS tried. Tonight we get to meet the 14 contestants vying to win $250,000, but that win won’t come without the help of The Glass House 2012 fans, as they play a pivotal role in determining the outcome of The Glass House ABC.

In the first episode of The Glass House 2012, we will finally get to meet the 14 contestants who we will be getting to vote on and eventually telling them everything they must do to stat alive in The Glass House TV show. If they don’t do as told, they have the chance of getting voted out of the house by you. The fans help control the outcome of The Glass House 2012.

Time to meet the contestants: Alex, a 25-year-old bail bondsman who I am going to hate; Andrea, a 31-year-old bookkeeper who is a Mormon Mom; Ashley, 30-year-old paralegal who keeps it real (a.k.a. the bitch of the show); Apollo, 28-year-old poet/author who believes in the law of attraction; Gene, 28-year-old stuntman who is 6’7″, 340 pounds, so they will be afraid to kick him out; Erica, 27-year-old cocktail waitress who I am also going to hate; Jacob, 28-year-old cook who is the douchebag of the show; Holly, 21-year-old retail sales who I think may be a favorite (she looks like she is in it to win it); Jeffrey, 35-year-old receptionist who is the token gay guy; Joy, 27-year-old nurse who will be the slut of the house; Robin, 43-year-old blogger who is going to the Jewish Mom of the house; Kevin, 33-year-old police sergeant who may be my new favorite to win it; Stephanie, 32-year-old scientist who I may love already; Mike, 48-year-old who may be dead in a couple years and is a Bar Mitzvah DJ.

Alex is a douchebag and trying to work it with all the girls in The Glass House 2012 and secretly starts an alliance with Jacob to try and work it with all the girls…tools! The contestants get summoned to the wall to find out that the viewers will be making the decisions in The Glass House TV show and have already made their first decision, which is how the teams should be broken up for the first challenge. The viewers have decided East vs. West . The contestants break into their teams and we discover that Jacob is a jackass, as he can’t figure out which team he is on…is Oregon east or west?

The Glass House 2012 teams will have one day to choose a captain, which is critical. The losing captain and one member of the losing team will go into Limbo and the viewers will vote one of them off the show. Jacob, because he is a dufus. The contestants then go to check out their living quarters. Robin and Holly get the Enemies Room together, probably because they are the oldest and youngest women in the game.

Th chimes go off, which means the viewers have decided on something. They have decided to throw a welcome party for the contestants…a pool party, so let’s see them flaunt their boobs and abs. Next up, viewers decide to have mardi gras beads and boas for the contestants. They all jump in the jacuzzi and Jeffrey jumps in and overflows the jacuzzi. To add to the party, they get umbrella drinks (alcohol) and a sushi platter and they pay a Kiss & Blow game. Can we just kick Alex out right now?

The West Team on The Glass House ABC meets to decide who will be the team captain. Jacob volunteered earlier, so they talk him into being the leader. He admits he is an idiot when it comes to smart stuff…duh! The East Team then meets to discuss their team captain. Jeffrey steps up and volunteers for his team. The contestants get together and announces he is not forming any alliances or voting anyone off…he is giving everyone a card and drawing to see who goes home…he is more into relationships.

Time for the first team challenge on The Glass House 2012. The West Team is up first and are asked to head out to the arena. The challenge: they have to match up the names of the opposing team with the fact they told about themselves before the show. They must twist the blocks and make all the blocks line up to the correct answers. The team to get it correct and quickest will be the winner. Alex was team captain of his football team and loves competition and has to win, but gave all the wrong answers. Total chaos for the West team as they all yell. They decide to put Apollo in charge and only listen to him. After all the confusion, they finish their board.

It is now time for the East Team on The Glass House ABC and Stephanie, who used to be in Mensa, takes over as co-captain and they seem to be working well together and get the board put together quickly, but it is all about editing. Who is the winning team? Team West completed the puzzle in 7 minutes and 4 seconds and Team East completed their puzzle in 3 minutes and 54 seconds…they kicked major butt! Team East is safe and Jacob is headed to Limbo and the house will vote on who will join him…make it Alex!

The challenge just ended and Alex is campaigning to stay in The Glass House 2012…he is so worried. Joy, meanwhile, is being very sexual. Alex, a.k.a Primetime 99 Alex Stein, proceeds to put on Joy’s underwear. It is underwear, not a thong Alex. Kevin goes off on him and tells Alex to show some respect for the married women in the underwear. Alex goes and asks Andrea if she was upset about him thrusting on her and he apologizes.

Every week on The Glass House 2012, the contestants get to ask the viewers one question. It is time for the viewers answers. Gene asked who should he align with, women or men, and the viewers said women. Erica asked about The Bachelorette. Apollo asked if they smiled at least once today. Alex asked if he should turn into the most epic villain in reality TV history and viewers said yes.

Now Alex is determined on being the most interesting reality TV character out there and he proceeds to rip on everyone in the house, but he is just being an idiot. He calls Kevin a loser cop, Joy can’t keep a husband and is bitter, Andrea is a bad Mormon for coming on a reality show. Alex is the guy who I would slap if I could slap someone through a TV. He thinks it is entertaining, but he looks like a big tool. First one voted out for sure!

Jacob is feeling defeated on The Glass House TV show and Joy talks to him and tells him he has to get rid of that so he can be safe and Alex can go home. Apollo then does his card vote and picks a 4, so whoever draws a 4 will get his vote. Ashley draws a 4, so one vote for Ashley. Now the rest of the contestants will vote to see who will join Alex in Limbo. After The Glass House 2012 vote, the person joining Jacob in Limbo is Alex.

So, we find out good information…minutes after leaving The Glass House 2012 for Limbo, Jacob decided to quit the game! However, Alex remains in Limbo and you can go to ABC.com to vote if Alex should return to The Glass House ABC. There will be live streaming of the behind-the-scenes action in The Glass House from 11pm to 3am on Mondays and from 3-4pm on Tuesdays through Thursdays.
