I think he should wear the cute white outfit on his next dirty job.

DJMC, that was awesome! Thanks for posting!!

Teri

Discovery, thanks so much for digging this out of the vault to amuse us.

Oh Mikey Mike, you are so charming, so genteel. There was the caveman lift, but otherwise, you were the model of decorum.

You never even smacked her b@ll into the next county. My family is more cut throat in croquet. We have 3 sets but none of those great mallets.

'Spose you'd get your knees skinned up if you wore shorts on DJ all the time.

Aha...so that was then, the so un-dirty boy Mike in his spotless t-shirt.

Ahoy...so that was then, the so un-dirty boy Mike, not surrounded by pigs, ostriches, Llamas, goats or cows but a gal Alison.

Ahooe..So that was then, the so un-dirty boy Mike not smeared in grime and dirt, but floating in the blue sky in 'Romantic Escapes'.

Although, I think Mike is hotter NOW than he was while hosting the 'romance' show.

One thing I feel would be good for Mike now is his need for some true leisurely escapades. Because, after all the toil in dirt and muck, our dirty boy Mike would bring out his best most naturally now.

I guess, it would be fun to watch dirty boy Mike, lying on the sand with his feet sticking out, sailing in the Mediterranean blue sea, trying his dance moves with Hawaiian dancers or some belly dancers from Morocco, and sipping beer.


Jenny

Thanks DC and DJModChick I really enjoyed watching this. Mike is very good at what he does, but I prefer the unscripted non-host to the scripted one.

Teri,
I don't think this outfit will fit anymore. He might just need a size bigger(or two)...??
....On the other hand ...memories of "noodling" shorts...hehehe!!...men..

grasshopper

Oh, dear.

Same bad boy, only in preppie clothing.


Rita

Don't listen to them, Mike. I think you look dahling in your whites!! >snicker<

And, yes, such a gentleman. But you know he was just dying to hit her b@ll off the course!

Was it just me, or did Mike seem to have a bit of fear in his voice when the balloon lifted off? You apparently have gotten over any fear of heights...

Hope there will be some more of these to view!

Liz

P.S. Fleur, the two of them reminded me of being a teenager on a first date, and being near to each other, but afraid of "touching." Things sure have changed...

That was painful. Mike, you definitely are getting better with age. Now, someone find the Mary Catherine Nun Doll QVC footage!

Susan

"Romantic Escapes" Mike and his soft voice kind of give me the willies.

I miss sp@rm jokes, d!ckies and Banksy...

Stacy

oh my!!! i laughed so hard!!! that was just so cheezy,mike! dino was right...alot-o-hair! i like preppy men but not mike!LOL!!

jeani

Oh, My, Goodness! Thank you, thank you, thank you! This is just Precious. And the hair, the hair .............THE HAIR! I think Bill Cosby wants his sweater back. This is wonderful. Early Mike is a joy to see.

Gayle

Oh I so needed that return to the 80's and 90's. No chemistry with Allison...bless her heart. I like Mike better now...and dirty.
Shelly

Is this the metaphorical poo that Mike sings about? It seems so to me. It was like Mike on some genteel holistic tea with valium. Metaphorical poo for sure.

Dust Maker

...wow... there is just so many things to comment on, where to start? I think my two favorite parts were the completely random "caveman lift", not a bad idea by the way, but then there was the croquet... that made my day.

Mike, you should come down to my grandparents to play "real" croquet. Basically, we play for blood. Taking eachother out, hitting opponents to the other end of the yard, Poison ball... yeah we are pretty hardcore. And we dont wear all-white outfits either.

Karen
*one bad@ss croquet girl!*

HAHA! Oh, no. CHEESY!

I got about a minute in and I had to press pause and come on over here.

Let me just say, Mike, that you looked like an extreme prep. Not dirty, AT ALL. I don't know if I care for it....nice sweaters though. *dies laughing* I wanted to throw mud all over that white outfit. White loafers?! Seriously?! How could you? Why would you?

The LAST thing I feel after watching this video is romantic. A little nauseous, yes. A tad gassy, maybe. Definitely a bit jealous of that chick he propped up on his shoulder.

Tia

I enjoyed it. I can't help but wonder what today's version of Mike Rowe could do with that kind of show. Would he even take off the baseball cap?

What to say? So much material to work with, I'm rather overwhelmed. I don't know where to start. Talk about extreme ends of the spectrum. I like the hazmat waste and dirt better than the wine and roses.

Dani

Thank You DJModChickie,

I have laughed way too hard at this thread. Mike looks like a Dork and after watching Dirty Jobs, would never want to see him do something like this.

Lisa <very opinionated>

Thanks for sharing this video. I had wondered about this show. Mike is darling in his spotless white shoes, but even better when he is sraping poo off of his boots or spitting unknown (or known) crud out of his mouth. He just keeps getting better.

Yes... Yes... YESSSS!!!! PLEASE!

Dana.

OMG!! How campy was that????

Mike, you poor, poor thing. What you had to do for work. The outfits!! AAHHHHH!!!

Thank goodness you found your niche my friend.
