Because books.

Yeah!

I mean, I watch enough reality TV as it is. I was trying to ... be moderate. But man, there was *nothing* on tonight. And it was really good!

And I really can't stand that Fashion Show thing with Isaac Mizrahi. So. I needed something to fill the space! I'm without Top Chef and Runway and Idol just ended! I was jonesin', man ...

But is Tom judging?

Sadly, no. But the list of contestants is pretty cool.

Yeah, I'm sure I'll watch it. But ... Tom!

That's what missing for me on Fashion Show. The lack of Tim Gunn is just ... a big hole.

I missed the first hour cause of a work thing. Anyone I should look for on YouTube tomorrow?

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Yay, SYTYCD. I forgot about it and of course my last season's pass didn't pick it up, so thanks, thread! I caught everything but the first half hour.

It's funny how the little clips of last season made me all yearny. I just can't wait for this season. And I might need to go back and watch some of last, since I still have the discs from meara who saved me at camp all last summer. Hee.

Anyway, I'm very excited about this season. I had to rewind the umbrella dance. And I kinda loved the same sex ballroom guys and thought that the response from the judges was disappointing. But I've never watched the audition rounds before so I'm not too sure what I should have been expecting.

I just love watching dancers' bodies. I love how they move and shape space and emote and communicate.

And it cracks me up how physical they are with their "I won" reactions. AI contestants scream...they're vocal. But SYTYCD contestants leap up and down staircases. They think with their bodies.

Yeah, the same-sex guys weren't great, but I wasn't all that surprised, sadly, by how homophobic Nigel continues to be...
