Giles ,'Lies My Parents Told Me'
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]
You have to watch "Reality Bites Back" on Comedy Central. 9 comedians are participating and each week they do a parody of a different reality show. This week was the first ep and it was "Big Brother."
I found it at least mildly amusing. I think some of you would enjoy it. 30 minutes.
General consensus among a couple of the people at country dancing tonight: The two step on SYTYCD sucked.
And watching some of the people dancing tonight, I was reminded of how bad it really was. I was like "Yeah, if some random gay men with no "official" dance experience can look this good..."
But seriously, some of the boys out on the floor tonight were doing a lot of the twirly twisty turning stuff that reminded me of how Mark and Kherington's stuff *should've* looked, or at least a little more. Now I feel compelled to surf over to YouTube....
This is what their dance was supposed to look like.
This is not what my dancing looks like. I do like, two of those moves. The easy ones.
I'm not sure why this video has no sound, but this is more like what I do:
Random note: Ronnie and Brandi also do West Coast Swing.
I'm watching last night's What Not To Wear, and I HATE that they got rid of her glasses! They were cute glasses! Hmph.
Once again today, I am Jesse. Maybe I should check into becoming a cowgirl.
Maybe I should check into becoming a cowgirl.
And then you could two-step! :)
Heh.
what's that song from the '80s?
I wanna be a cowboy
And you can be my cowgirl...
Finally saw Project Runway.
Boy, garbage bag girl and shower curtain boy both deserved to go.
At least he worked on his! All she did was bitch and slap something together at the last minute!
I wanna be a cowboy, And you can be my cowgirl...
Boys don't cry!
Riding on the chuck wagon,
Following my man.
His name is Ted,
Can you believe that?
I still have that on a mix tape. Ah, college.
Oh how funny--so, flipping through channels, I ended up on "Dance With Me", a trashy dance movie with Vanessa Williams and Chayanne that I'd seen when it first came out and since entirely forgotten about. It of course has the same plot as every other dance move ever (seasoned professional needs the spark of an amateur to get love of dance back!). But the movie was just about over and I wasn't paying attention until I looked up as the credits rolled...and who was billed as the professional dancers but some of the SYTYCD choreographers Jean Marc Generaux, France Mousseau, Tony Meredith, and Melanie Lapatin! heh.
