Hee. I watched the last part of the Superstars premiere and was mildly disappointed. I missed tonight's ep.
I will likely watch the Food Network one, and I am excited to hear about the jockey show.
Oh, and I'm trying to decide about Idol.
Harmony: Somebody remembered to pick me up the sweetest unicorn. Guess someone was feeling guilty for standing me up in tenth grade. Brad: What? Had to get her something. She sired me. Peaches: Sire-whipped.

Art Crawl!!!
Whether or not I watch Chopped! depends on when it airs. (Can't recall.)
But I'm sure it will repeat on the weekend, right?
I'm definitely watching the Jockey one.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.
Anyone planning to watch the Food Network's attempt at Top Chef?
As my wife's secret gay TV boyfriend is hosting, it'll inevitably be given a shot. Also, there's a woman from Worcester competing on it, whom my paper's food critic quite likes. So that's something.

Because books.

Oh, I'm sure I'll watch it. If nothing else it'll ease the jones between episodes of Top Chef.

depends on when it airs.
I'm so DVR-addled that I actually have no idea when it's on! I just emailed my Tivo to get a season pass and assume it will repeat often enough to work out.

Punishingly Intricate
Whether or not I watch Chopped! depends on when it airs.
Oh! I meant to find it to record last night and forgot. I need to set that up.
I'm just excited that Biggest Loser is starting again tonight. That's how much of a big loser I am. I think it's my lamest show! Of course I can only watch it recorded and I can do all 2 hours (!WHY!?) in about 40 minutes (while eating a big bowl of pasta with a piece of cake on top while drinking a beer, preferably).

Anyone planning to watch the Food Network's attempt at Top Chef?
Is it really (just) a Top Chef ripoff? It looks more like a Top Chef/Iron Chef hybrid (4 different chefs every week from the schedule).
I'm pretty much Jessica on shows with the word "food" and "competition". I think I even caved and went back to watching Hell's Kitchen after I swore I'd give it up.
I hope Ted's better on this than on his Mr.Wizard/Good Eats attempt.

I tried to watch that show. Once. It was embarrassing beyond belief.

I know! I kept thinking, why is Ted yelling at me and pretending to be Alton Brown?

Yes. This. Exactly.

I think I gave it a second shot to see if Ted had stopped channelling Robin Leach, but then I gave up.
