It's on Travel Channel. First one was in Laos. I don't know what the repeat schedule is like - i.e., I know that they repeat lots but don't know if they'll do this after the whole run or in the week before the next new one.
Giles, if you would like to get by in American society, then you are going to have to follow our traditions. You're the patriarch. You have to host the festivities, or it's all meaningless.

Dear lord, I am an unkind person because I SO wanted a long, lingering shot of Jen's reaction when Christina came through the door as the winner on Hell's Kitchen. I was practically screaming at my TV for it.

No shit. That was a serious missed opportunity.

Yeah, how did they miss that?
But Jen is so delusional.
(Also, the No Reservations Laos episode is repeating on the 14th - I think at 10 am.)

Wattched the Laos ep- very depressing and angry-making. Definitely hits home that American foreign policy decisions have been mega-imperialistic for a long, long time. I had no idea about the bombings there. Should look it up now, I guess, so that my primary source for this information isn't an ex-junkie chef/prfessional bullshitter. (which I say with love, of course.)
Bourdain was very subdued.
Next week is Columbia!

Wow, it's like Bourdain is doing a food version of P.J. O'Rourke's HOLIDAYS IN HELL. He already hit Belfast during the Irish episode (which, granted, is much improved from even a few years ago).

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Big Brother!!
I saw a couple of episodes of ANTMM (America's Next Top Mature Model) and liked it quite a bit. But I never really knew when it was on or what channel so I kept missing it. I loved the black lady who said she was like 50 but was actually 70 (or close to 70) and the really weird, bird looking blonde lady.
And in SYTYCD news, Cat looks 99.9% normal tonight. What's up with that?

SYTYCD
Ah, I see. Mary's taken on the double crazy to make up for Cat's relative lack of crazy.
Chelsie and Mark- Alex DaSilva. Soooo much hate. Why is he such a trick fiend? Ok, so neither one of them really had the right hip action and Mark was too pulled up through the chest, but it was alright. Very difficult choreography, trick heavy as usual. Nigel's right, the footwork was good. Why is he such a sleazeball, though?
ETA: Bollywood is not a genre of dance. I'm sorry. I am afeared!
Thayne and Comfort - The routine was a little generic, but danced well. Thayne really cannot stop smiling, can he? So sad for him. I thought he did well with the moves, but it was really flat. Agreed with the judges that they didn't relate to each other at all.
