Anya: We should drop a piano on her. It always works for that creepy cartoon rabbit when he's running from that nice man with the speech impediment. Giles: Yes, or perhaps we could paint a convincing fake tunnel on the side of a mountain.

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]

Because books.

I just want to ask the parents what the hell they were thinking letting a reality TV show babysit their 8 year old for a month.

An eight-year-old is way, waaaaay too young, if you ask me. So are most ten- and eleven-year-olds, probably.

Art Crawl!!!

I would guess that they were swayed by the possibility of their child being awarded a $20,000.00 gold star.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."

Man. I had heard about this show, but that clip was bad news.

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

Anybody watching SYTYCD (even the acronym is too long!)? There was a popper in the Chicago auditions that was unbelievable! I can't even describe what he did! If you get the chance still to catch it, it is worth the whole show! He came at about the 1hr15min mark or so.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Seriously. And who's the guest judge? I missed who he is, but man, he was freaking out over that guy!

Oooh, Hec is going to be pleased about part of tonight's final challenge on Shear Genius.

Sometimes I think I might just move up to Vermont, open a bookstore or a vegan restaurant. Adam Schlesinger, z''l

That guy in Chicago was very cool. I expected him to be sent to choreography, though.

Thrive to spite them

The guest judge is I forgot his name, but that's the style of dance that choreographs. I liked a bunch of his routines.

I'm not sure if the Lindy Hoppers got through to Vegas, but they were fun to watch and I'm glad Hawk from last season has a valid work permit.

Last season there was a girl who got hurt in Vegas and Nigel promised she'd get a pass directly to Vegas this year and I'm hoping that he held true to that.

Why do they have hair models who will cry if their hair is short? Shouldn't that have been one of the requirements, that your hair might be all hacked off?
