Houston is also very blue in Texas. And while Austin itself is liberal when you get to the more affluent suburbs just outside of town they would be very conservative. Presumably Kate lives in one of those.

Loved how you could see the conversation editing going on. When Nick was talking to Katie Tim was in the background of some shots, but not others. Showing you they're stitching it together.

"The Dark Side of Reality TV" series on ViceTV is going to do an episode on Hell's Kitchen. With people giving background information and what it's like to be on the series. Looks like it's airing 10/8. Series Trailer.

The stroke and the brain trauma gave him dementia. The V gave him the ability to walk through solid objects.

Not to mention Bazil seemed to also think something is strange.

I found it really cool that they gave Danny blueberries instead of bacon for the B in his blind taste test. I assume it's because he's Muslim and can't eat pork.

June 13th would be my guess.

Later in the season Elimination judging will be based on both the Quickfires and the Elimination Challenges. So you'll see Tom + Kristen + other judge for both events and not just the ECs.

S6 trailer. Get ready for Valentine's Day.

Here's the thing, GR is an asshole, but he respects and responds to 1) people who work hard 2) people who listen to his advice If you talk back or argue, he's going to come at you 10x. If you take ownership of what's going wrong, tell the truth, he'll buck you up and help you out. Look at Carlos at "In the Drink" dude was in over his head, didn't have the knowledge or training but still worked his ass off and did his best. Gordon didn't yell at him or talk down to him, GR treated him with respect and gave him the tools to succeed.

The creators were Joe Schmo Show fans and it influenced them with Jury Duty. https://www.vulture.com/article/jury-duty-interview.html

I agree with this, I read it as Paul being faced with the person he broke up with and trying not to straight up insult the person to their face so trying to take some of the heat on himself with "it's not you, it's me" reasoning. But Vanessa and Micah wouldn't let it go. Vanessa wanted to make a point for TV, and Micah was happy the attention was on Paul instead of her behavior and was hoping that if they spent enough time on Paul they'd move on to someone else afterwards. It was completely obvious that Micah did not want to be at the reunion.

Is this the first time Gordon Ramsey has been name checked on Top Chef?

FYI, it wasn't a knife. It was the broken end of the baseball bat that the guy broke across the tree when the fight started.

Cole has a lot of faults, but at his core he's just a clueless "bro" who wants to have fun. He has no depth, he's just a blunt tool (in both respects of the word). He tried to apologize in his mind, but he had no idea what he did wrong, just that he messed up. So of course he was confused as to why Z didn't want to stay together after the wedding and work things out. He needs to get some strong female influences in his life to sit him down and tell him "here's where you messed up" rather than surrounded by other buds in their 20s to tell him "Dunno man! Women be crazy!" He's a project and he needs to work on himself a lot, but he's not a monster.

The most obvious (deserving) winner since the first episode since Rock on S3.

This is what some people from Lego Masters Australia have said, I'm sure it's very similar for the US. https://www.nowtolove.com.au/reality-tv/lego-masters/lego-masters-do-they-get-breaks-63689

One thing this doc didn't bring up was they implied Limp Bizkit was the last act of the day, which wasn't the case. They were followed by Rage Against the Machine and Metallica. This is touched on very lightly in the series by in addition to all of the infrastructure failures they promoters didn't know the music acts they booked, so there was no "come down" time to let the air out of the balloon (so to speak). Musically they kept bringing the crowd up and up and angrier and angrier without a release.

I agree that this was a well done doc series, I appreciate them bringing in Gavin Rossdale's perspective about how he saw how amped up the crowd was after Korn and they tailored their set list knowing they had to bring the energy back down. The HBO one did a better job of going into the organizational and planning failures from the jump that caused the issues, as well as going deeper into the assaults and health issues of people there and the festival did very little to stop them. But it was a bit dismissive about the Nu Metal genre as a whole. The HBO doc specifically calls out how Coachella learned from all of the mistakes that Woodstock made when planning their event.
