I don't do Dancing with the Stars because my watch from the hall-meter goes up way too high in the early rounds when there are tons of "celebrities" on the show who can't dance at all (I'm looking at you, Master P!) but apparently Lindsey from S9 SYTYCD is going to be a new pro on the show this season. Personally, I'd have gone with Witney instead. Firecracker! Ah, well.

Because books.
The Evil Newlyweds are the worst! I hope they are doing this on purpose to be tv characters
They keep acting like they're in a spy movie. Relax, people.
I'm glad the twins at least tried the task. I really thought they were going to give up in the beginning, which is just so wrong. It's Amazing Race! What's with all the people happily taking penalties this season?
I love the hockey players. They must be total hell-raisers during games.

Yeah, I was like "seriously boys? Come ON!"
I also would be bitter if I'd been on last seasons' slog through the heat and humidity of the third world dealing with like, rats and construction, and saw these folks getting to do fun shit in Bora Bora! Man.

Face Off's Foundation Challenge this week was very cool - making them do a bunch of extras in a limited time was a great idea.

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

I'm pleased with the results, too. I've been wanting that person gone for weeks, and the winning werewolf was my favorite.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.
I finally got a chance to watch the Top Chef finale last night. I liked both Kristin and Brook, so I didn't really care who won, but I thought it was just plain silly that the show was trying to ratchet up the tension over who won the 4th course, when there so little time before end of the show that it was totally obvious that there wasn't going to be a fifth course.

Lee,
I am so irritated by the finale, I can barely talk about it. so much bullshit and improper time management and bad format.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Colicchio didn't like it, so.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
Colicchio was on "Up With Chris" on MSNBC today (you can catch it on the Web site around now I think and he was on ostensibly to talk about his produced documentary about the hunger problem in the U.S.
Chris Hayes loves TC, so he took a bit of a detour to talk about the show and Colicchio talked mad shit about Marcel and how he didn't really know what he was doing when he first showed up on TC in Season 3. Admittedly, I don't remember the show well, but I didn't get the impression he didn't know what he was doing then.
Colicchio also said "thank God" that molecular gastronomy was falling a bit out of favor.
