Check me out, watching Face Off practically in real time! And it's a rough week. The winning look is kind of brilliant, and next week looks like a good time.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset
No Clowns, no Virgins, no Cha-Cha-Cha, no Will and Tara, no Doublemint/Zoolander...this list is Not My List.

A list of Top 25 TAR teams without The Guidos? Uchenna and Joyce make it on the list over Chip and Kim? Automatically invalid. There were teams on that list that I barely even remember.

in re: Face Off
-t, I too was glad that Eddie left when he did and now I'm happy for Lainie that she ended her own misery. Bless her heart. She obviously has talent, but I wonder sometimes what the producers are thinking on these shows when they choose obviously emotionally fragile contestants.
I appreciated that they didn't exploit her exit any more than they did.
I'm a bit annoyed that Miranda lucked out so. Her performance this week begs my question before about how much of her success so far is based on the help that she was able to get from others. Now that they are down to the final four, no one has time to carry her...except for her poor model! In the promo package they had Glenn saying something like 'If you did that to a director, you'd be gone.' I was SO hoping he'd said it to her.
It isn't fair that such shoddy work bore no consequence and, if I were Laura or Tate (who I'm supporting to win) I'd be peeved.
Speaking of the producers' choices, did anyone else get the vibe that the 'shocking twist' for this episode was going to be that Tate was sick? I've watched it a couple of times and it really jumps out at me.
Roy seems to understand the providence on his side. Bless him. He's good, but not as good as Laura or Tate.

I really want Miranda gone. She complains every fucking week. I'm over her.

Right. And she's a veteran. Nothing about the process should be a surprise to her, even if she only made it to week three in her previous season.
