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]

Because books.

Project Runway, come on. Come ON. This week, 90% of people on PlayRunway disagreed with the judging (including me). I hate judging that feels manipulated to keep on a subpar designer just for the eye-rolling and the drama.

Also Supermarket Superstar, which I don't fully get the premise of, but I guess I'll give it a shot. I believe my second cousin once removed (or third cousin? Or something else. I can't keep that stuff straight. Some sort of relative) is hosting.

Stacy Kiebler is your cousin(ish), -t? I'm watching it now, and I like it! I imagine coming up with a right-priced, unique product for the supermarket is harder than I thought.

No, Michael Chiarello is! I liked Stacy Kiebler when she was on DwtS, though.

Maybe I will get to Project Runway tomorrow...or Saturday...

Oh! He's one of the mentors.

There are multiple mentors? I'm sure this will all make more sense when I actually watch an episode.

Ah, so there is a suggested budget. On PR. That's probably a good thing.

Eta: how much do I love Justin taking off his hearing aid thingy

Yeah, I saw that, and I think it's good. Also that he purposely reminded them they don't have to follow it.

I'm really peeved by the auf for the first time in a long time. I don't think he deserves to stay, but she did.

I'm only 20 minutes in, but I'm sure I'll have an opinion soon.

Braden's curtain fabric is making me happy. Yes, take a risk when you have immunity!

Back tattoos of the mother is that you are absolutely right - Ame

Darn, if she had been, I'd be two degrees of separation from George Clooney. Though I guess now I'm only three degrees. Not too bad.

It made me like Helen a lot more that what upset her was not being told her dress was awful, it was seeing it on the runway and knowing it was awful. I'm interested to see what she does next, if she pulls way back or what.

Timothy is so, like, school project. They do often send boring home before bad, though, they always have.

Also, I'm relieved Sandro didn't win. The bare midriff did not save that dress from the lace inserts on the sides. I don't know hw Zac Posen could say that.
