Okay, the Vicki’s Instagram is going crazy as people figure out that Steve Lodge’s brother is Roger Lodge, former host of Blind Date and a somewhat regular actor in guest roles on sitcoms like Full House in the late nineties and early 2000s.
I though we already knew this but apparently since it is a slow news day it’s a topic of conversation.
Roger’s son got married today and of course Vicki and Steve were at the wedding.
Here’s a look back at a famous episode of blind date. It’s way better than Love Connection!
Holy shit I hadn’t thought about Roger Lodge in 100 years
LOL strange……i thought we already knew this for quite a while now? even when he ran for political office it was mentioned that roger lodge is his brother.
Thank you maryam. I thought so too. But it seems to be shocking news to some and it’s an easy post on a lazy Sunday. 🙂 Plus I always have to keep in mind that people arrive (and leave) all the time and haven’t read all the posts here since 2011. Jesus, has it been that long? No wonder I got so fat. I sat down in 2011 to start this website and have barely gotten up since. LOL.
A love connection?
I didn’t know! But I loved Blind Date, and Roger is better looking than Steve, for sure.
I didn’t know either but . . . . . it is L.A.! Six degrees of separation? 🙂
I wonder why Steve changed his name from Chavez to Lodge too? I get that Roger Lodge is very catchy for an actor, but not sure why Steve would change his too. Maybe the parents changed it? I think Chavez is a very nice nane.
I believe it was out of respect for the step-father that raised them. I think they use both names actually.
Respect for the step-father was the story he told the press. What he really was doing was trying to leverage the Hispanic citizen voters when he was running for city council or whatever political position it was, however many years ago. He actually ran under the name Steve Chavez. So which is it? Steve Lodge or Steve Chavez? Then when he got called out he changed it to Steve Chavez Lodge. If you have so much deference to this step-father why wouldn’t you permanently change it to Chavez?
I think it’s Steve Chavez Lodge. 🙂
Well thank God someone has corrected Steve Chavez Lodge on when he can use his birth name. How dare he try to “leverage the Hispanic citizens” with the name he was born with. What’s next? Making breakfast for Vicki’s grandkids?
Your sense of humor is the BEST. Wicked & wonderful!!!! Joy in my mind.
This reminds me of the video: Blind Date with a Crack Whore hosted by Roger Got One Lodged. I’m sure it’s a different guy spoofing the real Roger. It was hilarious. (Sorry to thread jack!)
Anyone else notice Steve’s deformed thumb? ?
Now I do! ?
OMG! I have been whining about cutting all the way across my thumb’s cuticle with a dog food can and now we are mocking people with deformed thumbs! I DON’T WANT A DEFORMED THUMB! /cries
Especially because it is my remote control thumb!
I have a wonky thumb too from a bad oven burn accident. I hide it it as much as I can get away with, lol thank you for keeping us wonky thumb people on our toes wink wink.
Great. Apparently now I am being welcomed into the fucking disfigured thumb club. As I didn’t have enough issues…
you’re not alone, i think i noticed his because i have one thumb that is double jointed. It looks like a regular thumb so I can freak people out on command when I pop it!
I’m going to have to pass on the fucked up thumb club. My cuticle is healing nicely and there has been no noticeable reduction in the agility in my channel changing activity, Sorry suckers. Ten good appendages here!
I just want to know: Did Vicki catch the bouquet? And if she did: How many bridesmaids were killed by her mowing them down?
I think Vickies boyfriend Steve is very nice looking actually. I dont get the critisism of his looks at all, and I think Vickie did pretty good for herself finding him. I dont think the brother is better looking at all, either.
News to me!
I loved Roger on Tru TV’s World’s Dumbest. I don’t recall him from anything else though. But he was often the funniest person on the show. Why did they take that show off the air? It had to cost virtually nothing to produce. It’s still one of the best shows to watch while high… legally, of course, in the state of Nevada. 😉
News to me too. Not ground shaking but interesting, thanks TT.
It’s Chavez!!!! They tryin to pass… Man Bye!
…And Kelly Dodd is another one too! Own your heritage.
