I don't know how I feel about Peanut being a mentor. He is one of the choreographers whose work I most look forward to on a week-to-week basis and I'll miss seeing his work on the show. I don't imagine he will be allowed to both choreograph and mentor.
I will watch this show until it goes off the air. Heck, I'm still watching Idol! Nonetheless, I'm concerned with the changes they are making to the show for this season. I wouldn't be surprised if this is the last season we get.
There's going to be a ballroom competition on PBS with Mary. Not sure if it's just actual random ballroom comp that they decided to record and put on TV, or some particular show set up, but...
Oooh, I am definitely here for it. I remember when they used to show straight up ballroom championships on PBS. Glorious. I wonder if they still do.
Harold from S1 Top Chef has a new cookbook out.
The Imaginary Friends challenge on Face Off was glorious. That is all.
Is anyone else watching Drag Race this season? It's definitely got some ups and downs, but my main question is why so many of the contestants have long hair! I didn't know long hair was such a thing right now, and if you were wearing a wig all the time, wouldn't you want less hair to go under it? (Like how so many of them shave their eyebrows for the run of the show -- I noticed several of them had normal guy eyebrows in some pre-show video they showed....)
Woo, Face Off! That was a great challenge and the makeups were all wonderful and I am so happy about the winners! Whee!
The finale makeups were great, which was a nice surprise because I was mostly "eh" on the work this season.
Looked like the models are having some fun with the public, too.
