TC: OK, I can say for sure now that I want Angelo GONE!!!! Seriously, dude? "I've had crabs." WTF!?!?!?!?!?
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 actually had to rewind to make sure he said that. I can only hope that the editors cut the part where he busted out with a big goofy grin to indicate he was deadpan joking.
Also, could he BE more in love with himself? When he was talking about whatshername, he kept going on about how sexy he found her because she reminded him of himself! Also the whole sexy duck prep monologue, so skeevy.
I was afraid that Kenny was going to come off as a dick with the whole trying to out-alpha Angelo, but it was more or less OK. What a freaking fustercluck that whole challenge was.
This season isn't really doing it for me at all. The challenges are weird, and everything seems in service of heightening all the inter-contestant tension bitching and interpersonal shit that is SO Housewives of New Jersey or whatnot.
I gave up watching the ep of TC. I couldn't take the yelling.
SYTYCD: Lauren is holding her own against the boys. I do hope Ashley survives the week. I'd rather see Jose or Robert go home. Jose is a cutie, but he got out danced by everyone else tonight. Robert just doesn't work for me.
Oh lord. I just started watching so I'm behind and guessing. But it's no mystery. The calibre of chefs compared to last season? Whoa. Last season, there were the Vs, Kevin, even Mike I, but probably another 4 chefs who were a step down from those. None of these people would last a day against those. Angelo (hate) and maybe another or two could fight it out with the lower 4, but seriously. This is not remotely on the same level.
Damn, Anya's core is amazing -- the way that she held that backbend while he got in position was INCREDIBLE.
um, were courtney and jose supposed to be dancing together? or was just really bad directing in that they just concentrated on Jose?
Robert's piece was amazing. beautiful choreography, well danced.
wow, Kent was awesome! And i didn't hate Tasty's choreography, shocker.
I agree with Mia, Robert wasn't masculine in the disco routine.
Top Chef: I'm disappointed that Tim is gone, but just because I liked him. His food seemed lacking, though.
I was hoping that Andrea would go home. Mostly because I don't like her. but, she didn't know what a minestrone was, she didn't cut her vegetables the same size, this is really basic shit.
Work of Art:
glad that Eric called Miles' shit out about his acting. It was clear that his "OCD" and his "being overwhelmed" bit went away when they would become a detriment.
Also, Peregrine needs to grow up. Sometimes people are unhappy with you. sometimes they yell. That's no reason to be "scared"
Okay, Eric might have been wronged in the challenge, but he was a dick at the end. All he had to say was goodbye. It was interesting that we never got the perspective of the other team members in an interview.
Work of Art annoyed me tonight. I was underwhelmed by both pieces. And I agree with you about Eric, Vortex.
Nicole exclaiming "Mother of pearl!" was amusing, though.
Top Chef: There are just so few people I like this season. And the skill level does seem low after last season. I keep hoping when the numbers go down, I'll have picked a few favorites but right now I could not care less.
TC: It's like they need to cull the herd before it's worth watching.
WoA: Eric was in over his head from the beginning but his calling them out on their Art school bullshit was worth it.
SYTYCD: Anya is just magnificent, but even she could not save that jive!
The music was HORRIBLE for the jive! I honestly don't think anyone could have made a jive look good to that!
I can't believe how much I'm starting to like Lauren. Once she got that plastic smile off her face, I started noticing that she can actually dance!
Boogie Shoes was awesome! I really hope Billy Bell sticks around because he finally seems to be progressing. I'd like to see him get another contemporary.
Dominic really outdanced Jose.
And omg... Mark! So sexy!
