I bet that they will let callers voice "the tough questions," right?

I wonder if Lou will be able to charge the people who call in 20 dollars.  He will have his wife on another phone tracing the calls and informing the callers that they owe 20 dollars.

Can't we all agree to BOYCOTT this show to show Lou and PBW what we think of him? Besides, it's not like you'll be able to understand a word he says.

Nope...Monday's show with Lou is on the house....NO CHARGE :)  - Most bodybuilding fans have never heard Lou discuss bodybuilding issues.  Needless to say, there is A LOT of ground to cover with Ferrigno.

I will only tune in if you promise to ask him about the lawsuit on his brother, and the $20 thing.  Otherwise, it's just an hour of listening to a self-absorbed douchebag who can't even speak properly.

Lou charges you $20 for you to take a picture with him USING YOUR OWN CAMERA! Even if you bring in your own photo/item to have him sign.. $20! It's extreme.. some say it's his right but if you walk around the expos he's in (arnold, olympias) you will not find one other athelete that does this. They only charge if you wish to BUY a photo/video etc to sign and there is no way in hell they charge for you to take a picture with them using your own camera..

I think monday's show will be an interesting one for getbig history.

We've always kinda paraphrased Lou's reasons for charging $20 for his autograph.  It will be interesting to her his exact words for it.  I'm sure they'll be echoed ehre about 20,000 times.

Also mandy polk speaking out, that will be interesting too.  I wonder how much she'll be able to comment on the titus mess?

Thought Lou's answer to Bob about him playing Lou was kind of weird.  I think Lou was kind of jealous HE didn't get the role to play himself.  That would have been about 150 autographs worth of cash for Lou.

Tried to think otherwise but Lou does seem like kind of a dick.

Wow... that might be it... perhaps he wanted to train his size back up for the role and they rejected him.  Bob's portrayl of him was sort of chubby/short/fumbling (intentionally I think), so it was less than flattering.

i think lou took some heart from the fact he was bigger (ie. taller) and younger than arnold in pumping iron.

bob playing the role took both those trump cards away which seemingly pissed him off.

major ego problem me thinks.

he really needs to LIGHTEN up a bit too. arnold was so cool because he was/is FUNNY lou you idiot!

i bet Lou saw that movie as an opportunity for redemption from that era.  but it was like, "we have a low budget Arnold, so we need a low budget Lou".  besides, Jurgen Prochnow sucked as Arnold.

True, I have wondered if Lou seems different and is missunderstood is because he is hearing impaired? 

He does seem to have a deep passion for BB too, that you can not deny.  I thought his speech at that last contest was good.

Personally, I thought show lacked its usual depth. Someone mentioned that the show got awkward at some points, well I agree, it did. Especially when they had that female guest on……(sorry can't recall the name)… But at first, I thought she was drunk or high, or even both.  I did like the fact that she addressed some issues outside of the Craig and Kelly saga, but it still was a very flat show. I anticipated a bit more… But Lou really sounded like a prick.  Especially when his adoring fan Bob was crushed by big Lou's change of demeanor….

Well, I guess like so many other things in life, the show has to go from a high to a bit of low, in terms of entertainment. Milos was oustanding!  Lou left something to be desired….like maybe a personality…
