    We had many alliances throughout the race that weren't showed.

    With one exception, it sounds like their "alliances" were where other teams were helping them.

    Sunny and Bizzy can’t keep getting away with this! lol. 

    Well, it felt like the fact that she was a helicopter maintenance technician was going to be important later on in the episode, and so it proved.

    Popping in to ask: I think I read that this season was filmed before the last one.  If that’s correct, does anyone know why?  

    It was originally edited for a 60 minute timeslot, then due to the writer's strike they had a 90 minute slot to fill.

    I can see I'm in the minority here, but it's 1969.  Trixie has a job with long, odd hours.   She's not working 1 or 2 days a week.  She has a young baby and husband.  Apparently, he's under a lot stress.   She needs to spend more time at home.

     

    Don't they have a nanny?

    (From last week) "I don't know who Richard Burton & Elizabeth Taylor are!" Ever heard of Henry VIII? Mao Zedong? Ludwig van Beethoven? Anyone who doesn't have a Twitter account? This is what you get when your university graduates don't know that a dozen is not ten!

    Don't forget about the current Survivor season where Jelinski insisted - insisted! - that everyone knows that "several hours" meant "seven hours". 

    But I have had a slight change of heart about the Twins' Elizabeth Taylor remark when it occurred to me, as a comparable example, that although I have heard of Taylor Swift, I could not name you a single Taylor Swift song.  (Billy Joel lyrics are a different story entirely....)

    Considering what was said about Rasika's dish, I was also surprised she wasn't on top, but I thought it might've been because she had immunity.

    Her immunity in this challenge protects her if she's at the bottom, but it doesn't prevent her from winning again.

  7. Unless Hunter gets the gray rock.

    ETA: Just wanted to say that if I picked the gray rock, I'd choose whatever team Hunter was on for the win.

  8. This was without a doubt the best episode of the series. This is what I expected from the entire show: a behind-the-scenes look at fashion.  But it left so many threads hanging (pun not intended, but it's a good one).  From the beginning, the show was set up as a duel between Dior and Chanel in 1955, but we never go back to 1955.  Chanel is arrested in Switzerland for being a Nazi, but obviously nothing serious comes of that because in 1955 the students at the Sorbonne aren't even aware of that.  

    A couple of facts about Chanel I got from Wiki:  1) the deal she re-negotiated with the Wertheimers did make her the richest woman in the world, and 2) when she closed her couture house during the Nazi occupation she put about 4,000 people, mostly women, out of work.

    "Alone: AU" Season 2 has begun!

    Episode 1 is available  on www.southhemitv.com! 

     

    Hah!  I thought you meant it had started filming, not that it was airing!

    Thank God they're someplace where they can bow hunt. 

    ETA: Thanks for the link.

    Catherine's emotional confession to Mr. Friedman about Tania's tragic death is dark and disturbing.

    I couldn't even listen to it.  Once she said "She died in front of me and she died horribly" I fast-forwarded to the next scene.

    Those Wisconsin accents are going to do me in. That "comedian"'s voice was nails on a chalkboard. 

    That was Charlie Berens, you should check out his YouTube stuff, he's really very funny.  He plays into the Wisconsin/upper Midwest tropes, like being super polite, hating people from Illinois (like me) and shopping for every occasion at Farm and Fleet.  However, he disappointed me here, he seemed really out of his element.  Maybe he was just there for the beer, although based on his videos I'd say he was more of a Leinenkugel's guy.

  12. From the Milwaukee Journal:

    Quote

    David Murphy, who was the first cheftestant eliminated, was not in the episode, and "Last Chance Kitchen" did not explain why Murphy was not back in the kitchen.
