Watching Top Model, and noticing that Tyra didn't even replace Paulina!
Non-Fiction TV: I Reject Your Reality and Substitute My Own
This thread is for non-fiction TV, including but not limited to reality television (So You Think You Can Dance, Top Chef: Masters, Project Runway), documentaries (The History Channel, The Discovery Channel), and sundry (Expedition Africa, Mythbusters), et al. [NAFDA]
I forgot to mention that the subtitles were very good in general, but Robuchon did not say the poussin was bland--he called it a bastard (I assume meaning a bastardized version).
ha! I love that.
I thought Chanel Iman was actually good, and said not-half-bad actual model type things. But I'm curious to see how the rest of the season goes.
I also am very curious what happened to crazy Jesus chick who didn't make it on to the actual show because of some "issue". Did she go full mental?? She seemed awful close. Or did she get MORE Jesus-y and decided He didn't want her on the show? Or what???
Why won't A&E let me play "Hoarders" on their website?? It keeps not working. Is it my browser? My mac-ness? A plot to make me not want to clean my house? Fie on them!!
I know you guys mentioned this but now Im wondering if Mattin is really "from France". When I was working for the State Dept in Rio, I talked to hundreds of people, some who wanted to pass as nTive English speakers. I would say that 99% of the time, I could sense when someone had studied hard but never really lived in the US.
Perhaps there was something in Robouchon s comment that I missed but I thought his reaction to Mattin was just odd.
I was going to ask - is he maybe actually Basque?
yes he is. That's the region where he grew up. Southwestern France.
I guess I have no idea what someone from the Basque region sounds like, but that might explain it. I still think it's sort of odd, but who knows..TV....stress...editing....
