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]

What is even happening?

hah! She's my kind of reality tv watcher girl!

Ben was hollering at her (well, using big brother voice) to stop it, so I finally had to go in and explain it isn't nice to mock other people's pain. She managed not to roll her eyes at me (on the outside, at least).

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Shear Genius: Okay, I just watched the rerun. O, the drama! "You have every reason to cry." Hee. I feel like Daisy got criticized on both sides, for talking to her client too long, and for not communicating enough. Appreciate that she should have just said, "No. I can't do it." But it sounds like her client wasn't going to take no for an answer.

Anyway, loved Tabitha's style; it both looked like the inspiration photo, and was perfectly crafted to suit the client's face. And she got credit for taking on a difficult cut.

I was fine with Jim going, he was a mess.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Dammit. I've got a Season Pass for Shear Genius, now. I was planning on only coming in here for Dancing with the Stars and documentaries.

Shane?? Runs to Google for images of Sally Hershberger.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!

-t, welcome to the genius of cross-pollination. *grin*

I was thinking about downloading the pilot ep of shear genius. Ya'll have almost convinced me.

Is anyone watching Work Out? It looked to be a very crazy season.

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

SA, I started watching "Work Out", but I bailed. Jackie's behavior really turned me off. I don't think I'm going to watch the show again.

I saw the first season and pretty much enjoyed it, but I can't take her power play ways.

That was really good strategy. Well played.
