"The Two Coreys": The Worst Thing In the World For Each Other?


It was the episode we’ve been waiting for. And it did not disappoint…

The entire season of “The Two Coreys” had been leading up to this—the straw that broke the back of their friendship. The past two weeks were basically space fillers with Feldman writing a Valentine’s Day song for his wife (a bad one at that), Haim hanging out with his dad and Suzie posing for “Playboy.” But Sunday, we got back down to business with an explosive episode that probably had the Coreys’ fans bawling…

The episode entitled “Intervention” opened with the Coreys at therapy. Feldman proposed that Corey meet with some friends in the business who had been through similar things to offer their advice. It was clear that Feldman was talking about an intervention and Haim knew it, which was why he said no—even though Dr. Hunt thought it would be good. The session ended with Feldman inviting Haim to his house for dinner.

The next thing we see is Todd Bridges (“Different Strokes”) and Pauly Shore at Feldman’s house waiting on Haim. Not surprisingly, when Haim sees them there, he freaks out and attacks Feldman for springing an intervention on him. Feldman and Suzie argue that it isn’t an intervention, but apparently they forgot to tell Bridges who clearly came to rumble. Of course, Haim stormed out.

But the real drama happened when Feldman and Suzie went to Haim’s house to check up on him. Haim—who didn’t appear completely sober I might add—completely blasted him and Feldman and Suzie blasted back with both barrels. At one point, Feldman actually said, “Go ahead and kill yourself, I don’t care.”

Now I should tell you at this point that Feldman says on his blog that Haim actually agreed to the dinner party off-camera. And I can’t help but wonder how much of a part the producers played in all of this. But I believe the emotions behind it were real—WAY too real for me…

It was the first time all season that Feldman looked bad. Personally, I think that maybe the Coreys actually bring out the worst in each other. And maybe they would both be better off without the other in their life.

I admit I didn’t cry, but I couldn’t get one song out of my head—“Cry Little Sister” from ‘The Lost Boys.” Somehow, it seemed appropriate…

This week, Haim’s assistant Nelle gets involved and Dr. Nicki tries to find a way to get through to him. The new episode airs Sunday, August 10th at 10 p.m., followed by an encore of the “Intervention” episode at 10:30 p.m. on A&E…
