"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

there's Katee's roommate who was cut in Vegas week because Mia is such a hater

She'll never be back. She has never again been contacted by the show's producers. I think she's done with SYTYCD.

Friends don't let friends read "Atlas Shrugged"

ANTM: I can't get very enthusiastic about any of the wannabe models this season. The choice seems to be bland or bitchy (personality).

We won’t stop until everyone is gay.

My love of Travis Wall and Danny Tidwell knows no bounds.

Not thrilled with Dom, either. I thought he was pretty limited in his talent and I never forgave him for the plastic lawn chair stunt. Not to mention, he was a little stalker creepy with Cat, no?

Trust my rage

I missed the first half of Survivor and my Tivo didn't get it. why did the Heroes think Russell was going? Was it just because he was the only guy left? I didn't think it was a bad move. It got rid of the idol which was a source of conflict for the Heroes and can possibly cause dissension in the Villain tribe.

You know, I suppose they edit this stuff out but i wish someone would acknowledge the advantage Russell has as an unknown.

Wow.

Because books.

That was so funny. When Seth Aaron said he had a surprise for him, Tim was so suspicious: "You do?" Hee.

It felt sort of throwaway tonight, though. I feel like I already knew who the final three was going to be.

I did, too, although I liked Jay's three looks a lot more that Mila's. I thought that Jay's looks were more innovative and interesting. I like Mila's work, but I thought it was boring.

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.

I was really surprised they picked Mila. I thought Jay's stuff would be more interesting and "fashion forward".

I liked Jay's better, too. Mila's was a total snoozefest except for the dress, and the only thing that made it surprising was that it was hers. I feel like Jay has a lot more range than she does, though the boy does love his jodhpurs.

I don't blame Katee's roommate if, even if contacted by the producers, she wasn't interested in SYTYCD. I mean, damn. (OTOH, exposure, so I would totally get if she did it). But I thought she was awesome, and wanted to see her, and was SO stunned when they cut her in Vegas.

And I also love Travis and Danny and am skeeved as all hell by Dom.

I would love an All-Stars, but it wouldn't, of course, end up being my favorites, it would end up being Misha Chan and Dom and like, uh....what's his face the latin guy with too much chest who some girls liked to drool over. And skeevy Dom.

On ANTM, I would shoot half the girls in that house, like OMG. I know it makes for more interesting reality TV, but good god. That said, this week's elimination was a total snooze...like there was any doubt or drama to that one?
