This week it wasn't even close. With far fewer votes cast against him than any of the other 8 cast-offs, virginity challenged teen pop idol, Joe Jonas is rewarded with a ticket on the ship back to Earth. Only 6.7% of voters wished to strand Joe on Mars, while the next lowest vote getter had 33.3%. Joe packed his things and said his good-byes giving big hugs to Rachel Ray, and Miley Cyrus.
Here's what 93.7% of voters felt the Earth couldn't do without.
With Levi Johnston, and Joe Jonas (who just turned 20 last month), now gone, Miley Cyrus remains as the only young 'un whose fate is yet to be determined. She's up against the seditious Glenn Beck, the vile tongued Ann Coulter, convicted dog fight runner Michael Vick, Republican mouthpiece Elisabeth Hasslebeck, the everywhere-you-look-it's Rachel Ray, and diet advising, psycho-counseling, celebrity meddling Dr. Phil.
Now cast your votes in Round 4 for who to 'Strand on Mars' -This week you can only vote for up to 3.
Phillip Calvin McGraw (born September 1, 1950), best known as Dr. Phil, is an American television personality, author, and former psychologist, currently the host of his own television show, Dr. Phil, which debuted in 2002. McGraw first gained celebrity status with appearances on The Oprah Winfrey Show in the late 1990s.
In 1990, McGraw joined lawyer Gary Dobbs in co-founding Courtroom Sciences Inc. (CSI), a trial consulting firm through which McGraw later came into contact with Oprah Winfrey. Eventually, CSI became a profitable enterprise, advising Fortune 500 companies and injured plaintiffs alike in achieving settlements. McGraw is no longer an officer or director of the company.
After starting CSI, McGraw ceased the practice of Psychology. He maintained his license current and in good standing until he elected to retire it 15 years later in 2006. Appearing on the Today Show in January 2008, McGraw said that he has made it "very clear" that his current work does not involve the practice of psychology. He also said that he had "retired from psychology." According to the Today Show, the California Board of Psychology determined in 2002 that he did not require a license because his show involves "entertainment," rather than psychology.

It's a just-for-fun fantasy 'reality' game show in the vain of The Apprentice or I'm a Celebrity Get Me Out of Here. However the 'contestants' here are among the most distasteful, obnoxious, annoying or overexposed personalities around. Okay, so that's not very different from actual reality shows.
Each week, you the visitor, vote for the people you wish to leave stranded on Mars. At the end of the week the person with the least votes against them gets a seat on the ship back to Earth. But there aren't enough seats to go around. The remaining castaways face off each week until all 9 seats on the rescue ship are filled and you have voted on who to...Strand on Mars
