The poor bastard on the line responds with “Are you looking for cooking instructions?”, and after checking with the room, Busey responds “We’re not looking for cooking instructions.” HA! Imagine this guy getting the call – remember, this show was shot months ago, and so he has no idea what “Team Backbone” is. All he knows is that Gary Busey called to ask him about bones and Meat Loaf is wearing a chef’s outfit. How do you even go back to work after that happens? I have to think you’d just call it a night at that point. “Gary Busey called to tell me that he’s making a bone-in-bone bone-in, but he doesn’t want any instructions. I’m done.” (I hope he got some kind of bonus just for enduring that call and not losing his cool.–Myndi)
You could tell, even after the entire project crashed and burned, Trump didn’t want to send Busey home because the show is less entertaining without him.
See, I disagree. Trump only thinks the show is less entertaining, but I was so much more relaxed watching this week without his crazy ass invading the personal space of everyone he came in contact with.
Yeah, it was definitely more entertaining to watch without Busey — not only did he make me uncomfortable, but he was leeching screen time from everybody else. We don’t really know much about how the various people interact with one another, because the editing was so Busey-focused. I think I would have been happier if he just popped up once every episode to say something crazy and then moved on.
