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]
Oh heyyyy, apparently my Tivo managed to catch SingOff because I never deleted that season pass. Sweet!!
Holy crap, TAR!
I don't think anyone was happier about that finale than my son. GO TEAM SCIENCE!
So the race doesn't go to pro athletes, but a slow and steady team with smarts, hurrah!
Stuff like this is why this show is my big favorite.
And the tasks in the final leg were really equally likely to trip up different teams, I thought -- the swimming, the stunt man stuff, and the memory task.
I was totally surprised the scientists won! Did they even win a single leg?? Or heck, even come in second? How often has that happened??
And did you see next season's gimmick? Oh dear. I fear TAR is jumping the shark and I will never get to be on it. :(
I'm with ya meara. As much as I love TAR, next season looks watch from the hall bad.
PR: I like the pants Sam was wearing on Runway Day better than anything anyone designed. But the couple's were all really cute talking about their dates, and I am SO GLAD that the judges saved all their "that's awful" comments for when it was just the judges there to hear.
TAR: if the show survived the Family/USA season, it can survive this, too. (Of course, I wish for an all-senior season.)
