Most offensive Top Chef ever? First, Todd English (ptui), then they have to "respond" to what they find in the kitchen for a police/firefighters Boston Marathon/9-11 theme challenge?????
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]
TAR: I know they could have picked the other task, but I kind of love that there was something where having just one arm was actually an advantage.
PR: I really liked all four runway shows! I don't think that's happened in a long time. Perfectly happy with the winner.
Face Off - giant monsters, cool! In short, Dina is stil my favorite. I was pleased to find out last week that she's a protege of Anthony, whom I also loved. Always fun when we get to see her using cake decorating techniques in her makeups.
Bummed that George is out. Looked like a tough call this week.

Totally! Also, I am kind of entertained by the wrestlers. Mostly because the dude is dumb, but still. SO over the mom and daughter...and the "scientists" are kinda boring. But OMG hate the dentists.
PR: I really wanted Amanda to win because I like her so much, but Sean's collection was gorgeous, too (and I also like him!). What Kini managed to do in two days was pretty miraculous, and I loved the look on the model with Char at judging. It was really was a very satisfying show!
Sean's runway show was just so polished with each look leading naturally into the next. And I loved how he made the silk dresses with no fringe seem like they belonged with all the fringed looks. He really delivered.
Amanda's collection I liked more than anything she's done before, though. Really impressive. I bet she has a line available through some store or other before too long. And it'll do well.
And Kini's transformation of his collection was amazing. I really liked that same look that Heidi did with the shorts. Not something I would ever wear, but on a model I love it.
I really liked Char's black and white looks, and everything she did with that print she bought in Italy.

That was amazing!
I had really wanted Kini to win but when the collections appeared, Sean's really was the freshest...even though I don't think he can make a living on fringe alone!
Ha, no. He's also got the dye dress from the "rainway" to build on...
TAR: I'm loving the cyclists, whom I wouldn't have picked to out-competent the obviously super-competent field.
I wouldn't have thought tassel-twirling would be so hard, or that it would take a bit of thought to realize your problem is that your fez is too loose.
Sean put together the best runway show, hands down. This was the first time in this show's history where the term "color story" actually made sense to me.
That said, none of his clothes would work for my body type, so I hope Amanda gets a collection into stores sometime soon. I love her maxi dresses.
BROOKLYN CYCLISTS for the win! I'm so glad they're doing well.
