I really did not watch or find myself drawn to this reality show. I have played guitar and sung lead in a few bands and I know this is a tough life. A TV show can give a band or individual good exposure but a dedicated drive to develop your talent must be present.

this season of making the band was hottt!

ahh I LOVED this whole season of MTB3 and you did the right thing picking Aubrey and Aundrea..they are the best ones you got! But all n all the band you picked it GREAT!! :)

DIDDY READ OUR MINDS; IT WOULD HAVE BEEN AN INJUSTICE NOT TO HAVE INCLUDED ANDREA;OUT OF ALL THE BANDS, THE (MTB3) WAS WLL WORTH THE WAIT; CONGRATULATIONS GIRLS!!!!

I don't anything to say but boring.

i really don't like this show at all...it's so boring, there's nothing exciting to it.

I watched this when it came out. I'm not sure why...

P.Diddy Chose Ness and Babs Which is cool.I feel if Fred didn't quit he could have been in the mix. Ness is a lyrical monsta. Babs flow is gutta its so Brooklyn. Fred is Grimmy he got a ill flow. Sarah got a good voice its just that she can't really cope well wit the group. Chopper he alright his lyrics is wack but its exciting. Dylan nice if u listen to what he sayin u can't sleep on him. Much luv 2 Da band members

Well first off let me start out by saying I am a big fan of P.Diddy I love him SOOO much he is SOOO fine. Ok now that I got that out of the way, Sarah, you are a great person all in all, it seems as if you have a GREAT personality and your a great peoples person, you know how to communicate without causing major problems, but yet and still you let other people get to you and bring you down, you have a great spirit and personalitiy,your beautiful on the inside and out, keep doing ya thang girl! Bab's, girl you are wonderful! you are to much, you express your feelings wether people like it or not! thats how you gotta be now days, you have high, very high self esteem, and you dont let nobody bring it down, you straight gangsta, gutta, all that, but your also pretty! keep doin you gurl!! Choppa come on now choppa... we all know that you are cute, you are very cool, and got a cool kickin it type of attitude, but your childish! you was put in a grown up place and it's been time for you to act like it! the lil groupie chicks gone always be around,but are you? dont let fame take its fortune on you! but keep doin ya thang! Fred Fred Fred, boy now you know you are cute to! I love the way you rap, its seems as if you have a very bright mature attitude. I never really seen you arguing on there as much as i seen everyone else, you kinda low key with yours! lol, and thats how you gotta be. Just work a lil bit harder, and you will be the sh*t! Dylan boy you got mad problems yo...fareal...like DIDDY said you cant hustle a hustler, you got mad flava yo...and your accent is great, you bring mad flava to the group when your there, but i believe DIDDY mad the right choice by cutting you, i mean i dont think i can say ill miss you, because its like its been that way all the time, you never were there, good luck! But all in all i really pray to god that DIDDY bring Sarah and Choppa back together so it can be a band all over again, DIDDY let yall know it wasnt a game, maybe the was a leson learned to yall, and yall will come back harder than ever! I have faith in yall, much love to yall!

Da Band is terrilble. the only reson their popular is cuz of the show. They music is wack and the band is wack. Altho' they garbage Choppa is ok. Oh yeah HAHAHAHA to Sarah, Choppa, Fred, and Dylan for geten' fired.

I love Da Band. And hope that they are not really breaking up. I coudn't do nothing but cry after watching the season finale. I hope P. Diddy gives Sarah and Chooper another chance.

da band is dope! they are off the chains,but sometimes they argue to much when the should just be like you are not even worth me arguing over. all in all da band is the hottest group right now. i hope they continue to do their thing.big ups to babs,sara,young city,fred(mybaby),ness,and dylan(yacraziass)I LOVE YA'LL!!!!!

I loved Making The Band! It was a good show. I could'nt wait to see what was happening next!! J. P.

I think the Band has yet to have formed a strong bond as it should have. They are not supportive of one another. In terms of Dylan, I think that everyone deserves a second chance. No one should expect him to miss court to perform a concert. That's highly understandable. I truly hope that P. Diddy gives him a second chance. It seems as though everyone gets big headed, after he or she has fame, money, or power. Reading some of P. Diddy's history, I understand that he was cut from a record company b/c his head was too big. I guess he should be able to relate to Dylan. Everyone is not as strong and determined, as he was in terms of continuing to pursue his or her dream after failure. I truly believed in and prayed for Dylan to do a 360 degree turnaround. I have a troubled brother, who I refuse to give up on. I just hope P. Diddy gives him some tough love and keeps him in the Band. I hate to see him go to jail. I believe The Band will keep him out of trouble. I am a fan of his and The Band. I can not imagine The Band without any of them. I just do not like to see people's dreams crushed.

heyo, i think this band is definitely disfunctional, but iz like a family. I mean, my family don't flow easy all da time, so if Diddy treated them any different, and if they didn't fight, I'd say it was a waste of TV time. The biggest prollem i have with the band is Ness. he think he God or something, he too big for his britches - and Chopper can get REAL annoying. Only reason i watch it is for my baby Frederick(he's beautiful) I luv it when he suck his thumb. I think in the end, they'll make for a good band if they quit acting like they still live Street life. they need 2 quit fighting, because if they throw this all away, I kno they'll regret it. but i also know if they screw things up, there'll be another Making the Band, and I'ma be in it 2 win it, u kno?

P.DIDDY IS REALLY DOING SOMETHING NICE FOR THOSE KIDS AND THEY ARE MESSIN IT UP.ME AND MY FRIENDS JUST SIT THERE AND LAUGH AT THEM CAUSE,NOT TO BE RUDE BUT THEY STUPID.THEY ALWAYS FIGHING WITH EACH OTHER.AND AURGING.IF I WAS P.DIDDY I WOULD HAVE BEEN GAVE-UP.MY FAV.IS DYLAN BECAUSE HES DIFFENT.HE COULD BE LASY ALOT OF TIMES BUT HES COOL.IM REALLY NOT FEELING BABS CAUSE SHE HAS A ATTITUDE PROBLEM.I HATED POCANOTIS OR WHATEVER HER NAME WAS.SHE HAD PROBLEMS OF HER OWN.P.DIDDY SHOULD HAVE KEEP THAT WHITE BOY,HE WAS GOOD.SARA IS PRETTY.AND HAS A VERY NICE VOICE.CHOPPER IS VERY INMATURE.BUT YOU GOTTA HAVE A LITTLE HUMOR.NESS HES COOL.I LIKE HIS STYLE AND HES VERY CUTE.FRED IS JUST TO CUTE I THINK HE LIKE BABS.BUT ALL I WANNA KNOW IS WHY SHE TALK LIKE THAT.ITS ANNOIYING.I HOPE SHE SHUT-UP FOR THE REST OF THE SHOW.BUT SHE IS PRETTY

Hello I think the show is Great but you need to get rid of Dylan because I don't think he is ready to make money like the others do.Well some of them should I say. I am tired of them bull crapping around with Puffys time either that want it or they don't. Thank you SinNorr

I think puffy should not let more people come back in the band because the people who he walk to get him a cheesecake did all the work he should let them get brakes some times!!! If he sighs a nother group he better make them do all the things he made the other group do!!!

I'm tired of bands that are just put together with other people writing their songs and directing their every move. Give me bands that play in small clubs for five years, write their own music and finally get a break. These bands have earned the right to be popular.

ok this isnt really a comment but a question... ok from the show does anyone remember when ashley went back to his hometown for that concert?? ok he sang a song and im pretty sure it was by the goo goo dolls but does anyone remember what it was called?? i really appreciate if anyone answers

oh my god! i so want o-town to take off their clothes, jump in my bed and...

I love O-Town!!!!! After the 1st season of Making the Band I had to watch every show I could!!!! I think that the cameras did get into their faces a little to much it didn't seem like it really bothered the guys to much. I jsut can't wait for thier 2nd album to come out!!!!!!

Hey wasup, I just want to say that you people who haven't even watched the whole show you just turned on the tv and saw them singing and you said that "oh, it's another one of those boybands"!! Well you people that do that and have the nerve to rate this reality tv show are just plain stupid!! O-TOWN is the best pop band around they are not like any other!!!! I LOVE O-TOWN!!And their show phenomenal!!!

pathetic, if you want to be in a band, get some friends together and be in a band.

I think this show was great, because it shows how hard life is. These guys went through a lot of crap to get this far, and it was worth it, because they totally rock. And i just wanna say for people who have nothing better to do then come on sites and diss o-town-- if you don't like them, then don't come on their sites. Its as simple as that. You don't have to like them or listen to their music... but theres no point in coming onto their sites just to put them down(especially when they rock no matter what y'all say!). Aside from the fact of them being five of the hottest, sweetest, and nicest guys in the world.. they are also five of the most talented guys. They work so hard, and get along with each other so well(and just cuz they hug each other, doesn't mean they're gay). They have such strong musical passions and are so dedicated to making awesome music. I'll suppost these guys 'til the end. GO O-TOWN! ~*O-town 4-ever and Alwayz*~

I really enjoyed watching Making the Band because I got to see how difficult the life is. I know they are just another boy band, but O-Town is diffrent then all the others. People actually got to see the process of picking the eight and then the final five out of thousands of guys who showed up. It showed people what the music industry was looking for in new young talent.

All I see from this show is only about a few young guys whine and whine and whine, with that pathetic video camera following them around the house.

Ok-everyone says they are manufactured. I agree with this. We all watched them get put together on ABC. I think everyone has a history. Every group, whether it is a boy band group or not, has a story on how they became where and who they are today. They are criticized for not having to go through the struggles. It's not like they just walked up and got chosen. They applied, auditioned, etc. just like everyone does in this world for a job. This is what it is for them-a job. They do have a history, it might be different from those stuggling groups that are doing well now, but they do have tribulations they have faced over this past year and a half and have sweated/cried to cheering/smiling. If they like what they are doing, that's awesome. A lot of people don't get a chance to do what they love to do, and go into something else just for the money. If you don't like them, don't judge and criticize. You don't have to listen to their music or look them up online. However, if you do like to listen and see where they came from, then continue to look that up. In my opinion, I think it is a great show to show you a band's history instead of just listening to them talk about it. This makes you feel like you know them on a more personal level and see what they have gone through. They have had to do a lot more and a lot quicker than some groups. They are doing a great job at staying themselves, sticking up for themselves, and doing what they love, regardless of the comments (positive and negative). I hope they continue to enjoy their success and live it up. It's a great experience for them! Keep it up, O-town. I support you guys 100percent!:)

how con anyone NOT love o-town??? they are awesome!!!!

The reason i say it is good is because it shows how hard it is to break into this business. NO MATTER WHO YOU ARE,everyone has to deal with producers and manager and they all have to dasel with the behind the scene stuff that happens in music. I think it shows that it's not jsut getting up and singing but that it takes a whole lot of people to maek a BACKSTREET BOYS GROUP OR NSYNC. despite what all you boy band haters think the BSB, NYSYNC AND OTWON have had just as much trouble getting to the top then soemone like PEARLJAM. They all had to go the same root. So stop your bicthing and get over yourself and respect the kind of effort it takes to be successful. AND I DON'T JUST LISTENING TO POP I HAPPEN TO LIKE ALL MUSIC AND I RESPECT ANY ARITIST BECASUE THIS SHOW HAS TAUGHT ME THAT EVERYONE HAS TO WORK HARD TO GET TO THE TOP.SO DON'T SAY I AM A POP LOVER! THANX

The guys on the show are just not cool

O-town? Oh no! SO here we are with this fat millionair guy in Florida who auditions these guys and picks four of them to start this lousy boy-band. What about the Goo Goo Dools, who worked for 10 years to get to where they are now?? Anyway, here are these four guys torn between family and fame. Some of them didn't want to leave their girlfriends, others didn't like the negotiations for the band. In the end, it's all the same. Another crap reality show about making a one-hit-wonder.

Making The Band was a pretty bad attempt to make another reality show. Unless you are totally obsessed with the music band or singer on the show, you will not find any enjoyment in it, and because all of the singers on it haven't been introduced to the public, you can't enjoy it.

I liked this it was a good program it showed how a band usually is made

Great. Just what the world needs: another manufactured boy band. Why in the world would anyone care or want to watch these puppets behind the scenes? Enough is enough. Boy bands already pollute radio airwaves and they aren't needed on television where so much other crap already exists.

Come on!! What happened to a band that started in clubs and worked to make it big. On top of that none of lame ass boy bands write their own crap. What happened to music??

Ashley Angel is HOT!

Tripe. Quit watching and maybe it will go away.

Not a bad show but the bands suck.

No Comment. This show is pathetic!!!!!

Nobody cares except for teenage girls.

It was just funny how the producer was desperate to look for another band. It was really corny. But it was still amusing, cause they had cute girlfriends. I liked mostly how they brought them becauase they were cute. But then I thought that the manager was screwing over their money.

This TV show brings to light how manipulative music industry executives are when they are in their pursuit of money. They got these young, impressionable teen (early twenties) kids and brainwash them and play mind games to control them (they often play the good cop, bad cop). The show points out the need in the music industry for justice. These kids, and other musicians, need legal representation when signing contracts so they don't get completely silenced in their blinding pursuit of fame. It's sickening to think of how that executive portrays music, like it's something that can be mass produced. He takes the soul of the music and reduces it to a McDonald's franchise.

Wrong. Some stuff we just don't need to watch!

Yet another guilty pleasure!

I don't know how I ended up watching this show. Nice excuse but I admit I did watch one episode I was laughing out loud the whole time. These teenage boys who want nothing more than to be the next N'Sync or Backstreet boys, I don't really understand why, come together and try out for the band. They hug a lot and talk about their feelings. They are bigger girls than I am. The episode I watched was the one where the final cut was made. There were a lot of tears and touching going on after the names were choosen. I was embarassed for them. It was more of a comedy than a drama. Just what the music industry and kids need is another cheesy boy band.

The dumbest show I have ever seen
