  1. Jealous Amber breaking out the photo album of how she rescued Anna from the Russian orphanage to pat herself on the back every time Anna surpasses low expectations. Pathetic how Amber has to always be the center of attention. Nice that Trent and Josh are supportive of Anna risking Amber's jealous ire.
  2. Come on...skip the vomit inducing T and A bedroom antics and enjoy Anna's double middle fingers to her parents by being the first of the kids to buy a house with her hard earned money. They smuggly wrote Anna off in high school as the bad apple and she gets to say FU by acquiring a nice home with a big backyard for her doggies. Liz's reaction to losing the house race to Anna is to have a baby.. Anna is the smartest tool in that Johnston shed of dopes afraid of Amber.
  3. Calling it early...the baby will be given a hillbilly nickname because Leighton is too la-di-da, much too hard for Trent to learn to spell. Wanna bet they are gonna build a place on the Johnston compound since Brice's family lives down the road...easier for TLC film crews.
  4. Season 2 Australia announced. As bleak as Tasmania was visually, the South Island of NZ is not. Epic trip hiking all over the South Island before the tiktokers invaded. Alone UK next please.
  5. Eel sniffing. Gina came into the show with the better game plan and it paid off. Reunion show next week and Mike is the one I am most interested in hearing how he processed his experience. Alone is still my favorite show of this genre.
  6. Supposition of how it happened.... Scurrying to her pee spot, Gina locks eyes with the wallaby. Gina tackles and dispatches the pademelon with a nearby rock/log. Himalayan salt and smoke to preserve the meat. Mike came so close to trapping his pademelon. Consolation prize was a nice trout. Best episode reveals what animal Gina is ripping and gnawing flesh.
  7. Michael moves and weeps. Mike swims in that tannic broth in attempt to unsnag his fishing lines. Gina doing the muddy work to dreg her fishing spot. No reveal yet of whose ribs she is ripping off the flesh in the tease. Zzzzz.
  8. Another episode where they take turns giving each other insincere compliments. The blond compensates for not losing weight by wearing bigger and bigger hats so she looks smaller optically. The brown haired one is winning....excuse me, TWINNING because she dropped a few lbs. She loves to lord it over her the blond who was always smaller. Another redo stuffed to the gills of doodads from their warehouse. The contractor who has to remove all that wall tile can curse Lamb&Co. That playhouse was too small for the winner.
  9. Mike could have used his knit hat to corral the eel or flung it wildly on shore by scooping it instead of half hearted attempts to grab the slimey wiggler with his hands. The Tasmanian variety are short finned fresh water eels, not electric eels seen on Naked and Afraid... Maybe he was so addled with hunger he couldn't react to land it. Pademelon turned ninja walking through the trip line then a Tasmanian Devil gnawing and marking the whole gizmo with scent rendering it useless to attract other animals, just mocking him on the game cam...the only half interesting few minutes of this episode.
  10. Kate almost convinced herself that fried eel was good...the very oily tip triggered her gag reflex and almost triggered mine with her retching.... Mike finally! What...wait...bad decision. Michael, those are the smallest holes. Gina, the tannins are going to stain your veneers. Chris, you make 6 gone in 12 days. This has to be some kind of Alone record for this many to be dunzo in the shortest time. Another snooze fest.
  11. Jeff (gonna miss your common sense) got the heave ho and in-house contractor Owen is their hammering dude. Justin, the dark haired twin's spouse is now a fixture on the show, pun intended. He is a jack of all trades...mopping up mistakes, doing grunt work, bearer of bad news( septic tank/ sewer problems in a tease). The blond's teen son was laying flooring in another episode. TH stated that buyers were taking 5...10...15 walkthroughs before pulling the trigger means soft soft market at the time of filming.. Walking through 15 times seems far fetched..must be bringing in every family member and their dog in for a look see. Spoiler alert: Butt crack sofa. $3K of sherpa ugly.
  12. For those who follow Jen on Instagram she has apologized and asked for grace to forgive Will's Tiktok since removed with him dancing along with Madagascar Movie penguins while explicit and foul lyrics from Three 6 Mafia's "Half On a Sack" played. She states he is new to his own social media account and has veered off the road with his choice of musical content. I am guessing Zoey will out vulgar Will when given the chance to post on her own social media account. They grow up so fast....
  13. Agree. Indigenous Lands+fragile environment+protected wildlife=bad teevee None of the usual building projects in hopes of procuring food. No dock, fish traps, or paddle boat fishing gizmos. Mike's kayak is one sharp stick away from being a tarp with holes. A non endangered animal will have to drop dead of natural causes into their fire to be eligible to eat. Guess the Tasmanian strategy is to bring hooks and fishing line, saw, sleeping bag(or hunk of salt), a pot, paracord and 5 bags of food. 5 bags of food would get them deep into the game. Chris is an outstanding Aloner, to film his panic attack is the opposite of that woman last season who attempted to curate her emotional outbursts. Chris has 3 fish in 11 days, best fisherman. Kate, the botanist has the knowledge to gather food and all she has to show us so far is plant soap.
  14. Can't be the platypus....protected Pademelons weigh up to 14 pounds for males, 10 pounds for females.... Tasmanian devils can reach 30 inches in length and up to 26 pounds. Wallabys get up to 40 pounds and 6 feet long including their tail. Taste like beef. Common wombat get 39 inches long and up to 57 pounds. Good wombat tastes like rich aromatic pork, bad wombat meat tastes metallic. Her blasé face as she rips off a hunk of meat from the back reminds me of Tom Hanks in Castaway eating lobsters.
  15. Very interactive season... home viewers adding their own loud retching gagging soundtrack as they watch this season. Chris ping pongs all over the emotional map. He asked for a sign to stay and landed a trout...that was good teevee. Even though he sucked down the roe as a snack he was unable to get a fire started ate the trout sashimi style. Bet he was glad he didn't catch an eel. Raw eel....🤢 Duane is yet another builder who after finishing their shelter loses interest in staying. And the prize money is not worth the feelings of loneliness, yadda yadda yadda. Duane's family may not feel the same as Duane who threw away a 1 out of 6 chance for a good chunk of money. Agree, he had the best stretch of waterfront property. The water looked clear and lacked the tangle of roots to snag fishing hooks. Chris' water is brackish, dark from tannins, perhaps? If I had been an Aussie Alone applicant and got rejected, I would be pissed watching these quitters. I can't be the only one who finds Michael unlikeable. He looks like the poor man's Adam Driver but still off putting. Post your guess what animal carcass Gina is ripping the meat from in the opening.
  16. My local library bought the blue ray of the special when I suggested the purchase. You might want to do the same. The theme song stirs up the fuzzy feels for The Detectorists. Enjoyable to watch but it was over too soon. Leaving us fans wanting more.
  17. How about Hot Tub Girl? Girl has it all planned... Thinking her beau doesn't quite know what he is unleashing.
  18. Carlos Biggeman, the photographer is not afraid to show his feels. His intensity radiates through your teevee screen. His match is so perfect, she is of another time and is enthralled with his protestations of love. On a side note, I stayed at an AirBnb on the same body of water that Carlos lives, it is a spectacular place to visit.
  19. I am inclined to think that the first guy and first gal wanted to go home during orientation week when they got acutely homesick and couldn't wait to tap out. They wasted 2 spots that could have gone to other contestants. The hunter guy was beside himself, no guns, no arrows...he was completely out of his element and seemed angry that the producers set him up for failure. Night one, he foolishly set his tarp so the rain drained into his sleeping bag and clothes. He doesn't seem the type who has ever camped in his life. I can't be the only one to suspect he staged a pratfall so he could get back home to have a warm brekky and shoot his weapons. The robust retching of the botanist as she tried to down the eel has ruined my appetite for unagi. She says she doesn't like eel or fish...I'll be ready to mute her heaving and barfing mealtimes. Kayak building underway. Hopefully, someone will build a pier to make fishing and eel catching snag free.
  20. Win awarding Morse a sandwich of his own. A bittersweet gesture, since he'd rather have a lifetime of day of the week sandwiches made for him by Joan. Strange eliciting a pause from Thursday for not knowing what sandwich he was unwrapping... We never found out the mystery sandwich. Strange's dullness will evoke a midlife crisis for Joan just like Win had, history repeating itself. One last swoon from Morse in this tuxedo and little bow tie. The Endeavor theme music hauntingly beautiful and iconic.
  21. The stews should have worn Hazmat suits with black lights in hand to disinfect the body fluids left on the various cabin surfaces by the porn stars. Extra bleach, extra hot water, double rinse cycles on the bedsheets and towels, please. Aesha is Jason's work wifey, no different if they worked in a land office. She's protective of him, like a sibling.
  22. I enjoyed the mash up of the end of the season with the AU version. The last episodes of the season is watching the last few become more skeletal, freeze, have epiphanies...grim stuff until they crown the winner. History Channel was smart to start a new season with a cast of new personalities and accents because the diehard audience is already tuned in. Like shooting fish in a barrel....
  23. Check out Down on Love on Netflix. NZers with Down's date. Again, it is the parents and siblings wanting love so badly for their family members that tug at your heart strings.
