Maybe it's becuase I'm thinking about this weekend, but I was really underwhelmed this week.

There were really only four performances that stood out for me. The rest were all blahblahblah.

Because books.
Wylie Dufresne getting rattled is pretty funny.

I really like that phrase, style creep. I'm picturing someone dressed like GQ, but with bare feet and stubble, maybe even a fu-manchu.
Hee!

i'm not feeling compelled to vote for anyone, really. really liked Evan/Randi, Max/Kayla and Jonathan/Karla. everyone else was pretty meh for me. was really disappointed that Phillip didn't do better. he's tried out the past 3 years, he's seen the show. why hasn't he taken more ballroom classes?

TC: That Elizabath Falkner IRKS ME. She irked me on Food Network Challenge, making some avant garde thing that the judges "didn't get," and now complaining that people have "put her in a pink pastry box," when she's ESTABLISHED AS A CAKE MAKER. OK, she has another restaurant as well. BUT STILL.
Um. I didn't realize I felt so strongly. Possibly I was pre-irked by Wylie Dufresne.

Also, the Lost people must really watch nothing but food tv -- they had Ace of Cakes, too, and do you really think Lost is the show that ABC is most interested in promoting? I mean, I guess it could be, given that I don't know what else is on ABC....

BTW,
Did anyone see the ads for "More to Love" on SYCYTD? Just when I didn't think I could be further offended by Fox, here comes this.

Art Crawl!!!
Okay, loved the vending machine quickfire and love the Lost challenge too.
Meanwhile, I'm enjoying the Wylie/Elliot rivalry. They were v. amusing running around shopping together.

Oh yeah. It was so gross it made me feel bad for women who go on the Thin Bachelor -- these are "real women"? Sure, but I'm guessing most of the people on any of these shows think they are real.
