tiggy, I'm an AI fan, at least for this season. I'm hoping we won't see anymore of Sanjaya, he makes me cringe and want to pull his hair out.
Experimental TV: Non-Fiction
This thread is part of an experiment to discern the Buffistas' future interest in television discussion. It will remain open until June 1st, 2007, upon which date there will be spirited debate regarding the infinite possibilities for our board's development. This thread is for non-fiction tv, including but not limited to documentaries and reality shows. [NAFDA]
Sail, if there's any justice in this world dialidol.com will be right for one of the first times this season.
Sanjaya is this year's Kellie Pickler/Bucky Covington for me. completely awful and yet continues to advance week after week.
who's your favorite?
I'm rooting for Earl and Yao Man, too.
And excited for new Shear Genius tonight.
Sanjaya needs to go. Damn, his performance last night was ATROCIOUS. Ack.
So, on Top Model, I was thinking the whole accent thing was jacktarded, but then I remembered that past girls had to do commercials in other languages, so I guess they were trying to do an equivalent in an English-speaking country.
No, still jacktarded.
They made them speak with an faux-Australian accent, right?
Why not make them speak Spanish? Makes sense in the USA.
They made them speak with an faux-Australian accent, right?
Yes. They were in Australia at the time, which is something, but still.
If yours have David Attenborough, they're the original BBC version. (Discovery rewrote the narration and replaced him with Sigourney Weaver.)
Like, how much rewritten? Because the Weaver narration is STUPID. Like the one with the painted dogs that are chasing the gazelle (or one of the other fleetfooted deer relatives being hunted in that episode...there were a lot) where the fact that one gazelle gets eaten instead of another gazelle is termed "a miracle." And how every single creature pretty much is on the brink of death ALL THE TIME.
Also w.r.t reality: I am not watching Survivor this season because I didn't like anyone but maybe Earl and Yau Man after about four episodes in (maybe I should start watching again?); I am watching AI but beginning to get disenchanted with the predictability of the contest at this point.
so far dialidol.com was right on the mark.
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO BLAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAKE!!!
