And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Get back to me when people going on Survivor learn to start a fire.

Yau-man did!

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

Please pray for me. I'm watching "Last Comic Standing."

I cannot quit the show.

Finally got around to watching NFNS last night - they really are just begging for Top Chef to sue them, aren't they? (Though I can't tell if Giada is supposed to be Padma or Tim Gunn.)

Anyway, I was glad to see Alexis get the boot. He was so nervous the entire time it was making my skin crawl. And if Doreen can't manage to crack a smile, she can go next.

I can see why Dzintra was rejected three times - she really is wound up tight. But I also felt bad that the other contestants were so dismissive of her being sent to the ER - it would have been nice of the producers to step in and say "This was a call our medical team made, not Dzintra's choice."

ITA. I thought both the other contestants and the judges were very harsh on her considering that it didn't look like the medical person was giving her a choice.

I don't watch America's Got Talent, but I have to say that I love this clip from yesterday's show of "Prince Poppycock" singing the famous aria from The Barber of Seville. The voice isn't top-notch, but the performance is fantastic!

Because books.

It's really incredible they're only picking five girls and give guys.
