Oh, really? Huh.
Yes, it's terribly simple. The good guys are always stalwart and true, the bad guys are easily distinguished by their pointy horns or black hats, and, uh, we always defeat them and save the day. No one ever dies, and everybody lives happily ever after.

His boyfriend is Brad Walsh (who is a musician/photographer) - I've never heard of him. Here's is blog:

Amy, our girl is safe! I hope she does better next week.

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.
I'm so glad Chris got to show anyway! I think he should have shown the blue face, the red one-shoulder and the saftey pin dress. Every goth or would-be goth girl in the country will want a Chris March dress! I know I do!

I'm stunned that Amanda's still there. Seriously.
And I'm definitely going to hell. Alaina's shocked gasp of realization that if Kady was safe that meant she was going home? Struck me as funny.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
PR: I know! I am so traumatized by losing Chris. I think his collection was gorgeous. I loved the human hair thing and was so relieved that Tim's promo gag reflex was from the weirdness and not from the garment itself.
It was bizarre about Christian. He was all, "bye!" and I was all, wait, what? Seriously, he wasn't even going to take him on a walk down his favorite sidewalk or something?
I loved Chris' friends. I would totally hang out with them. That apartment was crazy!
Anyway, I'm bummed. Now I kinda don't care who wins.
ANTM: Hated the photoshoot. Hated it. Also, I'm only just starting to watch now, though I've followed your commentary over the years. And my basic observation? Is that there is a lot more screaming than I was prepared for. Particularly compared to MMaSM.

Now you see why MMaSM practically seems like a behind-the-scenes documentary in comparison.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
Totally. Why is ANTM like that? Is the age of the models? Or is it just Tyra?

Mostly Tyra, also the fact that I think all of these shows get more exaggerated as they go on, because the people trying out self-select and they get schticky and etc. Like the people on this year's Big Brother were having enormous drama within days of meeting each other, because that's what Big Brother is about. And ANTM makes the girls scream all the time, so they cast more screamers.

Also, on MMaSM, I had just been wondering if they really do kick the people off Friday morning, and they sure do -- that's when it snowed here.
