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]
Heidi just really seems to hate her.
maybe it's some european thing. or that her clothes are well made, but boring. I was very torn about Ra'mon and Louise, because I like them both, but I wanted Ra'mon to stay. I had hoped that his taking chances and clear vision would push him over.
I think that Louise's comment about being on the runway to be judged was helpful to her case. Ra'mon had a lot more feedback to work with, both good and bad
I really liked Epperson's dress. It was costume, but still fashion. it completely fit the challenge and looked fun and interesting. Of course, I dislike Nathaniel, so that could have something to do with why I didn't want him to win. I thought his costume was kind of boring, though pretty enough, I suppose.
I don't really get the nastiness toward Robin, there's got to be something we aren't seeing.
Evil Russell on Survivor continues to pique my interest. Looking for the hidden immunity idol was pretty smart, I thought. And although I'm bummed that he targeted two players I kind of liked, I think his reasons for doing so are pretty good- nip dissension in the bud! I'm not saying that he won't get called to task for it- it looks like that is coming up- but it's sound strategy. He's just really trollish about executing said strategy.
Ben, on the other hand, is simply horrible and hateful.
Yasmine cracked me up, though I cringed when she started her "motivational" speech at Foa Foa. But also laughed. Heh. Suck it, losers!
Russell's comments about Ben's fighting with Yasmine being excellent for taking focus away from him and making Ben look horrible I thought were spot on.
PR: I know! I loved Epperson's dress. I thought it was brilliant and the story was great. And furthermore, he was seriously last and knocked it out of the park anyway. I was surprised with Nicolas' win, and I think he's a douche.
Leaving the show just gives her time to locate Logan's home address so she can set up binocular perches and hidden cameras.
Bwah! So funny! I think I was better off not knowing what the models were thinking. Also, I don't think Logan is that hot! A little hot, but not that much! And anyway, I think the models' show is just cruel because there's very often little they can do to control their own fate. Although I'm glad they made everyone rechoose this episode.
SYTYCD: I think Gene was just going for "show my personality, show my personality" too much, and it came off ridiculous and fakey fakey. Which is too bad since he can dance. But they gave him specific feedback on it, so I hope he does tone it down.
Also, cannot wait for TAR. When did I become this person who only watches reality? Hee! Love it.
I was surprised with Nicolas' win, and I think he's a douche.
sits next to Liese.
Sits with Liese and Vortex.
I finally watched PR and I'm really confused about the judging this week. Were they supposed to make a costume for a character or make fashion inspired by the character? Because Tim really made it sound like a character but then the judging was all over the map.
Also, I think Louise should have gone home for inventing a genre within her genre that made no freaking sense.
If you took Nicholas's dress and chopped about five feet off of the skirt, Sasha Cohen could wear it for the next Stars on Ice tour.
And it would still be better than the monstrosity Zuleima made for her. Poor Sasha. Beautiful skater. No fashion sense whatsoever.
So I know this is not movies, but y'all I saw Fame last night and I have to say that Kherington still sucks at life. Bleagh. I was disappointed in the movie overall, but I am kind of obssessed with Naturi Naughton now.
hey, I was screwing around on the Internet while watching X-Factor and I saw that SYTYCD will end the week of December 16th and it will end on a Top 6, not a Top 4 like previous seasons.
They are trying not to have the finale too close to Xmas....
FYI, TAR started about 15 minutes late.
