'Heart Of Gold'
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]
They didn't even vote. Jeff was all "I think we're all agreed on who's going home?" and off he went.
I said to my sister halfway through that I really hoped they had Zeke's okay to broadcast, and I'm assuming that's the case from his perspective later at Tribal and afterwards.
I went looking, because I wanted to be sure my guess was right and it appears the producers worked extensively with Zeke (and a consultant from GLAAD, apparently), to make sure he was comfortable with the episode.
But I really, highly recommend reading his own words. On Survivor, life, being trans, forgiveness and some other stuff: [link]
Really exceptional piece.
Oh, good. I'm glad that they were respectful of Zeke and his perspective. What a thing to have gone through. The piece he wrote was lovely.
I really liked what he said about forgiveness. I'm going to share that with others...
Mom watched it and said she was going to come get me but decided not to (I'm glad because she didn't miss any). We talked about it some, the only thing that seemed to throw her is Zeke being trans and gay. But then when I talked about sexual orientation and gender identity being different she kind of got it.
Zeke and Hannah (from his first season) are engaged. I guess they've been dating since their season ended and Zeke got back from filming this season..
Remember Nadiya who won the Great British Baking Show (GBBO)? Well, she has books out - not only her cooking book, but one about a Pakistani family (not sure how much it's based on her own family) and stories for children.
I only wathced part of The Voice tonight but Chris Blue was amazing. I didn't always like his falsetto but I loved watching him perform.
Oddly, Benji Schwimmer liked an Instagram post of mine overnight.
Also I checked out his Instagram and learned that Donyelle is battling breast cancer right now.
What was the post, flea? How interesting! I've taken a bunch of classes from him over the past several years, because he's still big on the west coast swing circuit.
It was the stage, lit but curtain closed, before my daughter's dance recital, in a local high school auditorium. I didn't tag anything, so not sure how we would even have come across it, but coincidentally it was about dance.
