I think Natasha would have thrived with Bourdain. Ludo, I just can't stand.
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]
If you like competition shows, I recommend The Great British Baking Show. I'm currently watching it on PBS, so...check local listings?

I randomly turned on the TV show a little while ago and totally got caught up in an episode of that.
I did too, this morning.
I loved it!
I really like the presenter. She hosted this great show on living and eating throughout history. Each show, they would go to the doctor and get weighed and measured, then live and eat like a wealthy family for a week, then go back to the doctor and get remeasured.
Oh, that show was great.
Ooh, that sounds fascinating!
The baking show is only on Sunday at 8pm here, that is not gonna happen. Maybe I will try out the pbs app.
Okay, this is not actually relevant to SYTYCD, except in as much as it made me think about the young dancers they have on the show. I was doing school paperwork for Casper tonight and found myself behind the mother of this young man: [link] (at a competition when he was 16, which he won; there's also video of the classical ballet part which I always forget how NAKED they are in those tights and I am thinking "I just met this kid's MOTHER and now it is all HELLO BUTTOCKS") who is now 19, graduated from high school last May, and is dancing with the Royal Ballet in London (while Johns Hopkins holds his scholarship, natch.) Wow! He's adorable.
Top Chef: Who actually won the money this week? My recording was glitchy for a couple of minutes. So, I saw the elimination but not the win.
