That was really good strategy. Well played.
I wanna die in bed surrounded by fat grandchildren, but guess that's off the menu.

Because books.
I missed some of it due to noisy children and the phone ringing, but yeah.
I love watching the challenges, though, and the endurance ones are so boring. All you get to do it guess who's going to drop next based on how much they're sweating.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."
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 watch "Work Out" when I catch it. I couldn't believe Jackie was still with her girlfriend when the season started.

I’m responsible for my own happiness? I can’t even be responsible for my own breakfast! (Bojack Horseman)
EXCELLENT Survivor strategizing and pulling it off. Alex & Co. are dumb. Why did they assume they had Stacy's vote? Earl & Co. are SMRT. I wouldn't trust Dreamz not just keep babbling to each other till they sat down at tribal council. So, way to go. I love Yau Man and Earl. And if the preview is right (do I spoiler font previews?) I will CUT THEM if they steal Yau Man's immunity idol. Also, heh, to Dreamz STILL trying to play both sides! Dude, you are done. Just own it.
That was fun. I always love the "painful question" and "knock out your enemies" challenge.

Art Crawl!!!
Hey, I just watched Planet Earth: Shallow Seas, Planet Earth: Great Plains and most of Planet Earth: Jungle "On Demand". There are two more episodes On Demand -- how many have run so far?
I loved the Tibetan Fox, the Pygmy Hogs, the wild asses, the crazy displays of the birds in the jungle and all the fig tree fans.

I don't think (spoilers for Survivor) they'll steal his idol, but I think they are going to try and scheme to get him to use it or give it up.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
Inteesting to find out that no one liked Stacey. No one.
LOVED the scheming this episode. Oooh--Edgardo's face when that first vote with his name came up. Ruh Roh! I liked him the best of the Boy's Club, but they were all such Smug Smuggersons as a group, so I really enjoyed the takedown.

S to the A -- using they/them pronouns!
I couldn't believe Jackie was still with her girlfriend when the season started.
Me too! But that scene in the therapist's office was intense.

His face and Alex's both. That last 20 minutes or so was more fun than Survivor's been in yonks. I loved the ever-shifting plans, and Dreamz running back and forth between the camps. I'm a little sorry he's so exposed now, because he's really entertaining right now.
Interesting that the Boys Club has done exactly what they worried about in the beginning - created a large opposing alliance simply by being so obvious.

It's five thousand for kissing, ten thousand for snuggling... End of list.
People are right-- this cross-pollination is making me consider Shear Genius. I saw the judging portion of the first episode and it just seemed way too subjective (Jaclyn Smith?!). But maybe I need to watch the other portions as well.
