I just keep thinking "well, I guess they need someone to eliminate"

Hee, too true. Plus, by the end of the two hours it felt like most of the women, at least, were trying to sound like the next Duffy or Adele. I wanted to tell them to find their own voice.

My biggest (cynical) realization last night, although it relates more to previous episodes, is that I think people may be picking Christina as coach because she picked the worst team last year and they are trying to better their chances at getting through.

I lost ttrack of how many each coach has. But I feel like a) people are avoiding Adam and b) the quality of choices is not as good as the first night.

Yeah, I agree with the above about the quality Monday. But I liked, again, the weird-voiced girl. Although both of them went to Cee Lo, so we're going to have dueling weird-voiced girls on that team.

So I know it's a slightly different interest group, and it has been periodically offputting, but the new season of Top Shot started! I hope they started as they mean to go on, because the first ep was all, basic, clean shooting. And the two women appear to be moderately badass and so hopefully won't go out right away or be sidelined by family stuff.

And there's going to be a new Amazing Race starting shortly too, right? Tis the season, I guess.

thanks for the heads up on Top Shot. i need to start watching that.

I love my Tivo, or I never would have known.

And Amazing Race has finally changed their title to Amazing Race and not, Amazing Race 20, so Tivo picked that up too.

Anyone watch Survivor last night? The men v women thing is already pissing me off.

Big time.
