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]
Wait, did TAR show the wrong previouslies?
I thought that at first, but I think it was more the two week break working on my memory.
T&T went out well. I'm amazed they got to film in the Actual Blue Grotto, which is crazy, but then this is the show that managed to get a task in an Actual Pyramid.
...or it's possible I watched it and just didn't pay any attention at all.
Well, the previously included what will be one of my all-time favorite TAR shots -- the female wrestler watching the opera with her hands to her head and the most horrified expression ever on her face. You'd have thought she was seeing a seal rape a penguin or something.
The wrestlers do kinda crack me up.
I always feel bad when one task seems to just be impossible, though. Like that greased pole.
The blue grotto looked gorgeous! But dang, so much of this ep was about falling into the water! That said, they should not have been surprised Bethany can swim well--duh? She's a surfer??

I know, right? Yes, she only has one arm. But she is also a professional athlete in a water-based sport, so...
Oh man. I'm sad the cyclists didn't make it. But really--competing against professional surfers on that fast forward? Bad plan. But clearly this episode was the "learn to trust no one" time--between the Dentists just taking the word for it that that was the earliest flight, and the Scientists believing the Wrestlers about the clue...
Also, that tightrope thing would've killed me.
No one else still watching Amazing Race? Stupid Friday night time slot.
I'll be interested to see who wins--I feel like two of the final four are totally teams I would've bet on, and two are...not.
I've been watching, but not live. No one has grabbed my attention other than Bethany and her hubby.
