  1. Maybe it is just me, but this was one of my favorite seasons.  At first, I wasnt overly impressed with Morbid Masterminds,  but became more impressed as the show went on.  Loved Team Ghou'ld and am glad they won.  (Real minority, but I didn't mind Tator).  I just really liked this season.

  2. Love Ghouled works so far but have been oddly blah with Morbid Masterminds.  I am just not as impressed as I am supposed to be.  Still, I know they are better than the limericks team.  Too bad for the pumpkin carver on the rhyming team.  He deserves better.

  3. I thought the winning dress was ok.  I liked it even less though after seeing it in the Penny's catalog.  No real shape and not flattering on the model at all.  

    I'm not crazy about the twins, but I think Amy should have gone home.  That outfit was well made but beyond ugly!

  4. I like John Henson.  So far, he isn't too far over the top.

    The guy with the balloons looked really familiar but I can't think of what other competition he has been in.  Guys Grocery Games maybe?

    I know I am in the EXTREME minority, but I have never cared for Carla Hall since the earliest times of Top Chef.  She still continues to grate and I think my dislike is getting worse. Too bad, because I really like this show and look forward to it every year.

  5. Walking in a wooded area today made me think of this one.  Every sound in the woods is always made by a person hiding or stalking another character. The stalked person then asks, "is anybody there?" because the  sound couldn't be made by squirrels, chipmunks, deer, falling fruit, branches etc. (esp. in the fall).  Seriously, the woods on tv must be the quietest places on earth. On the other extreme, you'll  get the tv outdoorsman who seems to know automatically if a sound is made by a forest creature or a person.  Maybe this one is true.  I don't hunt so I don't know.

    I was hoping season 2 would show more about what they are doing to bring them down.  It does.make some sense that this cannot be exposed so as not to alert Miscavige.  

    I don't want an entire season of sob stories. I get it. Horrific things happen.  And we know very well that kids have no parental presence. 

    I am glad she is doing this but in was bored to tears. 

    In a way, I agree with you because of all the shows (fiction and nonfiction) that have dealt with child sexual abuse.  However, the pain was so raw and the details so unflinchingly graphic that I found the episode very compelling.   That being said, I actually found the descriptions of the everyday life of a child in scientology (or junior sea org so to speak) to be even more interesting.  I wish I had heard more of that, mostly because I find it so totally bizzarre.

    Out of curiosity, how far did you get? Some people are hooked straight away. Some at "The things I do for love." For me it was the Eyrie. I won't insist you give it another shot, though. :)

    I got pretty far into it but found that, more and more, I would put the book down and forget about it.  I can't say I disliked it, but I just lost interest.  Honestly, I don't think it ever gripped me like I expected.  After awhile, I read the last few pages and then gave it away.

  8. I detest, unrationally detest the Infiniti commercial with the girl taking the driving test.  I hate the smug girl and her smug mother, the now stereotyped dumb clueless boy standing on the side and the awestruck instructor who is just sooo impressed.  I would have failed her for the simple reason that she failed to listen to any instructions.  Everything about that commercial makes me unreasonably angry that I have to turn the channel if it comes on.

  9. I was only able to see the last couple of minutes, but I am incredibly glad Sugar Pyschos won.  I may have defended the Under bakers last week, but that did not mean I wanted them to win the championship.  Tomorrow, I can happily watch my recording of the show knowing my favorite team won!

  10. My UO is that I don't think every judging decision on TV contests are rigged to create more drama.  Not every disliked contestent is getting through just because the producers want more storyline.  Maybe I am   being naive, but I do believe that most judges are judging using their own personal standards and beliefs to decide who is cut or who goes on.   I know producer influence can and does happen, but in some cases, a disliked contestant may get through simply because they were better.
