Oh,I agree. This way it's weighted all wrong from the start. Although you could argue Fans vs. Favorites was done the same way.

I am tired of Rupert. So very tired. I would like to put him in a time out box with Boston Rob and Amber and anyone with the last name Hantz and keep them all far, far away from Survivor in perpetuity. Aside from the unwelcome site of him once again on the show, I thought the first episode was fairly enjoyable. I'm gonna root for Colton's BF. He seems sweet and adorable.

I am also very tired of Rupert, and I hope Candace kicks his butt off the island in the first duel.

On Top Chef, it makes me crazy how the boys write off Jennifer, but I enjoy how much stuff she's won.

I am Jesse on that one.

I can't with Survivor this year. Colton makes my skin crawl. Rupert is tiresome, but Colton? No. I don't need that in my life. I'm out this season.

Supermarket Superstar: The crab pie should go to Whole Foods, no?

They do contemporary on DWtS? That's weird. I haven't watched that one in years, sounds like it has changed even more than I thought - I liked it when it was brand new and super cheesy but there was a certain amount of basic ballroom going on, at least.

Top Chef - I wonder if they booted Sang last week just so he could come back as the judge this week. I love how much Jennifer curses. OTOH, almost every comment Bryan makes makes annoys me, which I think is weird because I think he is probably objectively very likable, but he just rubs me the wrong way somehow.

I am so pleased that they showed the sous chef thing afterwards - I've been totally unable to get previous challenges to play on my laptop. I'm still of two minds on the sous chefs in general, especially with the winning immunity this week, although that it was a dish chosen by the Master made it make more sense to me. Anyway, it's interesting how very different the judging of the sous chefs seems to be. Speaking of judges, the comments about the food this week seemed particularly uninformative, I got no picture of what anything actually tasted like. Which I kind of get from the standpoint of describing amazing food is hard, but food critics ought to be better at it. I can't taste that calamari bolognese to understand why it is relatable, you know?

Project Runway: I'm just a little ways into it but I wanted to comment that the fans are adorable! And I guess somebody always has to make the "I've never designed for real women" comment, and this time it's Ken, and, yeah, it bugs me both for the this-is-not-who-I-design-for angle and the models-are-not-real-women angle BUT my primary reaction this time was - what, Ken never made his mother a dress? Seriously? Cause she seems plenty real.

The superfans were awesome!

Bad news BB fans. Russell Hantz will be joining BB15.
