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]

Earl or Yao Man. Either one would make me very happy. But I'm not sure if you get to have the good guys win twice in a row. I think history argues agin it.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Yeah, I LOVE how Yao Man is kicking serious ass in the challenges. Go old, smart guy! Who do you think looks like a winner?

Our wings are not tired.
I love y'all, but I don't love non-fiction. Enjoy the thread!

If I want to become a cloud of bats, does each bat need a separate vaccination?
I would LOVE for Yao-Man to win. He kicks all kinds of ass.
The funny thing is that even though the challenges where he's really come through have been the physical ones, everyone still seems to expect him to do well in the mental ones that he flakes out on. It's like nobody can get their head around the fact that "elderly Asian man" doesn't necessarily mean "good at puzzles and memory games." Just because he can open a coconut doesn't mean he can navigate a maze!

But I love when he tries to get all crafty.

does anyone here watch AI and when does Project Runway come back?

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!
Project Runway should be back this summer. It's a summer-to-fall transition with Top Chef.
Is anyone watching Planet Earth? I'm aheming it and saving it, LOTR-like, for a big marathon watch of our awesome planet.

SA, I'm watching it -- and I just watched the Fresh Water episode this morning, which was amazing -- 6' long salamanders! Bears swimming after salmon (filmed underwater), otters fending off crocodiles, freshwater seals, piranhas in an actual feeding frenzy....
New Mythbusters tonight, too.

We are TiVoing it and really liked the first one. It just has one mind-blowing shot or fact after another. Lots of delight and awe to be found in the myriad creatures and structures on and in the Earth.
