I'm actually kind of shocked that Color Me Badd dude is only two years older than Chris K.

Non-Fiction TV: I Reject Your Reality and Substitute My Own
This thread is for non-fiction TV, including but not limited to reality television (So You Think You Can Dance, Top Chef: Masters, Project Runway), documentaries (The History Channel, The Discovery Channel), and sundry (Expedition Africa, Mythbusters), et al. [NAFDA]
Yeah, I thought Color Me Badd was older. Who knew? (Hmm, actually, I guess I thought they were all YOUNGER, though--they're all older than I am, which surprises me)
TWOP did a "review" too.
Holy crap, that was hilarious.
Top Chef: Lee Anne's blogs are always the best! I'm cracking up at the thought of her underneath that table handing ingredients up. And I'm pleased that there were supposed to be Japanese ingredients in there; ume, agar-agar, inari, azuki. They just didn't make it to them. Lame, cheftestants, lame!
Although I wouldn't have gotten the daikon sprouts or the taro root either.
Rocco's blog is funny in that he can't resist cracking back at Bourdain's blog. Hee.
My computer is refusing to let me read past page 2 of Rocco's blog.
Okay, was finally able to get back into that blog. I like what he said in response to Bourdain and it's interesting that he's had alot of positive comments. (Most say, start cooking again and your rehabilitation will be 95% done.)
I wonder what he's going to say next time?
Very interesting article about Bravo's reality show contestants.
What a great article. Of course, it helps that I've watched every one of those shows. I can't believe Jay's contract would have given Bravo 10% of his business forever, in exchange for the $100K. That's bananas. I wonder if the first-season winner always gets screwed over -- now I'm thinking of Adrianne Curry.
Oh, I don't know. It seems like a standard investment. Any other investor would ask for the same deal-- how does Jay expect to get investors if he wants them to just give him money with no return? I am kind of annoyed with him for complaining about having no money and giving up the 100K.
