Yeah, that was great.
I'm slightly bummed out that no one said Ade was actually great in the disco, where Melissa was good for a ballet dancer -- I thought she looked stiff, where he was shaking it.
So far, so good tonight!
Joyce: And what did you do tonight? Dawn: Irritated Giles. I'm beginning to get why Buffy likes it so much.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
Jesse, I agree. I feel like they sometimes ignore Ade. I thought he was so much better in that disco.
The judges seem to be overpraising at this point. I thought the NappyTabs number was bad.

I should point out that I hadn't seen the Russian dancing when I said "So far, so good"...

re: Top Chef- I was reading a puff piece on women restaurateurs in Boston, and discovered that Tiffany Faison (runner up in TC season 1) is a chef at O Ya, which is our most high-falutin' restaurant in town these days.
I would link the article but it annoyed me so intently that I can't in good conscience inflict upon you all. But. Tiffany! in Boston! at O Ya!

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
Brandon is usually better than he was tonight. He kind of sucked at the tango. He messed up his footing at the beginning of the dance and I think his clothes were too loose. his partner was the bomb.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
Man, I feel like a complete crank tonight. The judges are WAY overpraising.

the above link is a critique of Bravo's "The Fashion Show." Save it for your train ride because this is lengthy. The Project Rungay guys are very comprehensive.

When Mary was screaming, Beau said from the other room: "why is a cat screaming on tv?"

Ooh, that Fashion Show piece is right the fuck on. Tom and Lorenzo should be producers! Or maybe muses.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
Mark Burnett's next reality show should be Pasquale and Coach forced to go live on a desert island together. Jeff can show up every few days to interview them about who has done more [insert survival technique here] than ANYONE ELSE ON EARTH EVER.
