Aw, there's a sad note to TAR tonight if you happen to Google one of the people featured in the noodle-making challenge.
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 was thinking about that, Amy.
OK, what was that line about how Cord may not be the most talented at some things, but he makes up for it in try? That was awesome. Also "thanks for having us."
I could not heart the cowboys any more.
The cowboys are one of my favorite teams ever, definitely. The way he started stripping when his puzzle pieces were blowing? Awesome.
The cowboys are totally awesome, and you can tell that all the rest of the teams love them, too. (And the musical score writer--whoever he/she is, loved the Western theme music they gave the team tonight!)
And I was really rooting for Dan and Jordan after that first roadblock; Dan was so supportive of Jordan. Wasn't too thrilled with that preview for next week though, because threatening to beat up your taxidriver while you're in the cab is never a good idea!
Pingping has a sister who is 7 feet tall.
I can't say enough nice things about the cowboys. They're a class act, personality-wise AND they're not so much uber-competent as willing to work hard on figuring out the best way to do the tasks, even ones totally outside their experience, like the noodles.
Quick-thinking, too -- Brett ran off after the blowing cards while the cowboy pinned down as many as he could before retrieving any. I guess that rodeo-riding involves a lot of quickly-made decisions, not just hanging on for dear life.

Grabbing the folding chairs was brilliant.
And HOLY GOD BRETT, YOU WHINY LITTLE FUCKER. "Wah wah we would have beat them if it hadn't been for the wind." Like the wind didn't blow Jet's cards away too?
Watching Brett's cards blow away made me very happy. And watching his hissy fit about it just cemented it.
The Cowboys are right up there with the Clowns Jon and Kris and Chip and Kim among favorite teams ever for me. And they keep their cool better than maybe any team ever on the race. I guess when you've faced down death on the back of a steaming mad bull, a few scattered puzzle pieces is not going to faze you. And they always seem to be having so much fun.
Brent and Caite are not even fun to hate. They are annoying and I just really, really want them off of my TV screen. I haven't enjoyed the Cops all that much this season, but I sincerely hope they overcome the speed bump next week and make F3 along with the Cowboys and Dan and Jordan.
