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]

"We have trust issues." Mylar

Andrae's breakdown on the Runway during the "Clothes Off Your Back" challenge. Not satisfying at all.

There were also a lot of moments from Bravo reality that I don't really watch (or only watch in passing) like The Real Housewives of OC or that show about pageant kids. I realized about a half hour in that I really only wanted a Top Chef/PR top 20 moments special, with maybe a little QE thrown in just cuz I miss those boys. But I totally could've done without Blowout's finest hour, or the trainer from that gym show and the girl who was El Hornio's partner on TAR and their fauxmance.

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

Did anyone watch Big Brother?

(and yes, I do feel a little dirty even asking)

(but I can live with that.)

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Of course! Well, I'm watching it now. Trashiest Big Brother ever. And does this mean it's only 7 weeks, if they're kicking people out two by two?

The feeling you get when your brain finally lets your heart get in its pants.

It is! I feel really sorry for the exs, and now even dirtier for having watched it.

I would guess so, on the timing.

Or eight weeks, I guess. It was the girls saying there were just seven of them, so with the gays, it must be 16 people total.

BB: I don't know what the hell's going on, but mostly I can't believe thing and thing are still together!

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

Can anyone tell me what happened in the last couple minutes of American Idol? My DVR cut out just after they decided between the two teenage boys.

Because books.

sj, they put through the gorgeous plus-size model and cut the girl named Carden (sp?). Then they showed the top twelve guys and top twelve girls (while making them dance).

Lots of talented people this year! I didn't watch last year, but I'm hooked this season.

Thanks, Amy! We were watching on a couple minutes delay and didn't realize we didn't get it all until it was too late.

Lots of talented people this year! I didn't watch last year, but I'm hooked this season.

I know! Last season annoyed me, but I'm really going to feel bad for a lot of these people when they go home. I think I have a half a dozen favorites already.

Me, too! The Irish girl, and both of the rocker guys, and the awesome motorcycle-riding nurse who sounds like Janis Joplin.
