You like ships. You don't seem to be looking at the destinations. What you care about is the ships, and mine's the nicest.

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]

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I wonder if they thought maybe Natasha doesn't need them as much? So she's not going to do TV commercials, but she could definitely get hired as a model.

My minion is going to be thrilled.

I have to say, per usual, the Covergirl shoot stuff did make me see how the more "high fashion" girl could soften up.

That man was going to shank me. Over an omelette. Two eggs and a slice of government cheese. Is that what my life is worth?

Yay, Jaslene!!

I agree about Natasha. She's going to get print and runway work with no problem.

Thrive to spite them

I totally forgot to watch Top Model!

Renee stirred up a lot of shit so I'm not sad to see her go.

Tyra and Mr. J have been telling Jaslene less drag queen for awhile now.

I do not fucking believe it.

I'll white font this for the west coasters. AI:

As much as I like Blake and Jordin, one of them should have gone home tonight.

Fucking insane.

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.

No kidding, askye! I thought she was a shoe-in! I was expecting Blake to upset Jordin. Wow. I'm stunned.

But, I'm confident she has earned enough attention, that she will never be a backup singer again.

Crap! I just spoiled myself. Oh well, that's what I get for pausing the dvr. I have to say I'm not surprised. While I thought Melinda was the best singer, she's had a tendency to pick little-known songs and so I think it may be hard for the voting public to be completely into what she does each week.

I called Mom - "did I see that right? WTF?" Mom: "Maybe she just seemed too old. Not really the American Idol type?"

I suspect your mother is right, askye. Both Blake and Jordin have the appearance of being a "pop" idol. I think a lot of folks had a problem categorizing Melinda.
