Thrive to spite them

I don't know of anyone watches Chopped Jr bit last night there was a kid who was annoying and I was actively routing against him. Which made me feel bad.

But another contestant who won reminded me of Matilda. Ot maybe she was just what I think Buffista kids are like and her hair was kinda like Matilda. But she was rocking a cute skirt and knee socks and for her entree knocked out a spice rubbed rib eye, sauce, broccoli and mashed potatoes and a plum cot relish. The other two didn't manage sides.

AI Final Season. In for a penny, in for a pound. I have nothing to say other than Kanye West was on my screen and I was not pleased at all. Kim was also there. Again, I say why? Umm, JLo is really pretty? Keith Urban is still the king of frosted tips? That's about all the good that I've got. Completely unmemorable contestants and Harry Connick, Jr. on this show continues to chip away at the love I once had for him.

Eh, I'll still watch again tonight.

Face Off started last night. I can't believe it's season 10!

I'm not very far into the episode, but it looks like a good crop of artists. I'm really enjoying the variety of paths they took to get on the show.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

I'm skeptical there are actually this many decent effects makeup artists! Which I guess we have seen in some seasons...

There's the one guy who got interested in creature effects because of Face Off, so, they're making more.

True true.

SYTYCD is coming back, but in a juniors edition.... [link]

FOX has renewed the Emmy Award-winning SO YOU THINK YOU CAN DANCE (SYTYCD) for a 13th season that will feature a younger generation of dancers. This season, dancers between the ages of 8-13, who are skilled in various dance styles, such as contemporary, tap, hip-hop, ballroom, animation or breaking, will be paired up with All-Stars to compete for the title of America’s Favorite Dancer. Premiering Monday, May 30 (8:00-9:00 PM ET/PT) on FOX, the new season of SO YOU THINK YOU CAN DANCE: THE NEXT GENERATION will feature returning host Cat Deeley and returning judges Nigel Lythgoe, Paula Abdul and Jason Derulo.

I'm weirded out that they will still dance with All Stars. I certainly hope that makes the choreo move even further away from the boring love story?????

Huh. That could be really good or it could be a total trainwreck.

8-year-olds competing against 13-year-olds seems problematic.

Yeah, that...as it is, half the time the dancers seem like they'd be better in a few years with more seasoning. Ugh.
