Yeah, but you're an amateur fry cook and I come from a long line of fry cooks that don't live past 25.

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

I concur with Megan's list. Which means of course that I'm not particularly happy with any reality tv show I'm watching right now.

Work of Art has been a pleasant surprise. I'm hoping MasterChef will be good. I think that's it for me.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

I`m completely over SYTYCD at this point, which is a real shame, because of the potential at the beginning. And also because there is not enough Mark in it. There`s nothing left interesting to me. The teenyboppers can vote, because I no longer care and the judges voices are irrelevant.

I think what appealed about these shows to me in the early seasons (that the contestants were learning and I was learning) has gradually faded away as the contestants have gotten that much better.

Work of Art has been a pleasant surprise.

I didn't expect to like it, but I did. I am, however, liking the Miles show less and less. I also don't like the way that they are asking the other contestants to weigh in on the work of the others. Maybe just because Miles is always the one to offer his (negative) opinion.

Agreed, Vortex. I didn't get why the question was asked at all.

Really? Well I haven't gone for the Season Pass yet. You hear me PR? You are still auditioning!

Huh, half an hour left after the runway. And there's already been so much filler.

I don't have any strong feelings one way or another about any of the looks, Just too many to keep track of, I think, but nothing really stood out.
