I'm watching the first (I think) episode of Ice Road Truckers right now. I'm agog. They're driving immensely heavy huge trucks over frozen lakes!
I must be really bored with my life right now, because I'm thinking, I would totally do this job! In a heartbeat!
Next Food Star - they are on Fort Dix and JAG says something like "this is bring up a lot of feelings for me about when I was enlisted". Probably feelings about how you LIED about your service.
Although cool for making a new MRE.
And during the title sequence there's no Sandra Lee. I find that amusing.
You know, I'm liking these Top Chef style challenges, but I miss the TV bootcamp feel of last season. Almost everything was in front of cameras, really practical stuff about hosting a TV show.

Seriously? Was this mentioned on the show or is there a link? I haven't watched tonight's episode yet.
When is Ice Truckers on? I was watching Dirty Jobs repeats last night, and there were enough promos for me to be intrigued.
Also a reminder: new Dirty Jobs tomorrow night!!!1!
Thanks for the reminder, Theo! I have missed me my Mike Rowe.
Thanks, Kristen.
The latest issue of Entertainment Weekly is their "Hot 100" (or whatever they're calling it this year) issue. Right smack in the middle (around #53 or so) is the Discovery Channel Tough Guys--Sig Hansen and Phil Harris from Deadliest Catch, another guy who I can't think of off-hand, and Mike Rowe. They would have added the Man vs. Wild guy, but he was climbing Mt. Everest when they did the photo shot.

Ugh. I *hate* the Man Vs. Wild guy. He's a dangerous idiot, who gives bad advice, and has a full camera and sound crew around to help him out if he needs it.
I like Survivorman. He gives solid, life saving advice, and when they send him out to survive somewhere, he packs in his own cameras and sets up his own shots, i.e. NO CAMERA CREW.
