All of the Kohl's near us got rid of dressing rooms in the various sections, and now you must go to the central large one. It's very inconvenient and a pain in the neck. From some of the sections, it's quite a hike to the dressing room now. Their clothes are so cheap now also.

Spring Baking Championship - General Discussion

He creeped me right out, I couldn't look at him. He looked like Leatherface from "Texas Chainsaw Massacre" Just not something I want to look at on a baking show. -

Glad I had swallowed my coffee before I read that bit. -
It's my main complaint about this show and LMS. Those with differing opinions than TA are painted as ridiculous. Jenna's character wouldn't have been so rude about hitting the vintage car. Most mature adults would not act that way. Those characters end up being caricatures and not realistic.

It took an episode about gummies to get some laughs. Tim Allen did high pretty well. I don't mind Leno playing himself. I hated his character on LMS. Hated. This show is just not that good.

Hubby and said the same thing, not funny. And a rude child. Ugh.

He's touring, he will be in my area in the fall. -

Yes! The tongue! Grossed me right out. I liked the idea behind the fleshy cowboy hat, and wasn't as bothered by that one. Any commercial with an open mouth, tongue, under tongue, weird dentist thing holding the mouth open, people eating with slow motion spoon/fork being placed in the mouth...just stop it. Remember the lady referee eating yogurt? Gah! -

I keep hoping Nancy Fuller will retire from on camera work. Ah well. -
America's Test Kitchen - General Discussion
Deskisamess replied to David T. Cole's topic in America's Test Kitchen
I don't understand how that carrot cake can be considered a "quick" snack cake. Maybe if I had several food processors, a sous chef, and a maid to do the clean up, I could assemble it fairly quickly. But all the work involved takes this out of the realm of "quick." The fact that Toni was on camera was enough for me to immediately not like the recipe. The raisins and the nuts on top tipped the scale to a hard no for me. The process for those pretzels? What average home cook is going to do all that? If a hazmat suit is required in order to make the recipe, there is zero chance it's happening here. -
It was ok, but if it falls into the habits LMS did, where the more liberal characters are caricatures and have no resemblance to actual people, I'm out. 'I'm conservative, but realize those who are have more liberal views still have valid opinions and are not all crazy fringe. There doesn't seem to be much connection between the mom and the kids. No tension because they've left their home, no complaining about leaving their friends behind. It just didn't ring true. We raised 4, this kind of a change would have evoked much complaining and angst. I really just don't want heavy doses of politics in my "entertainment." There are plenty real world issues this family would be dealing with. Sure, their political differences will frame some of it, but not all. Putting a tentative young driver behind the wheel of that car was just stoopid.

Obnoxious and bizarre. If you removed the cologne bottles from the commercials, they would be meaningless. And trying to capitalize on the media focus on trans folks by casting Elliot Page in the one shown here. -

DayQuil commercial with sick folks, with red runny snotty noses in close up camera shots. Ugh, just terrible disgusting marketing. That is horrifying. -
Can you imagine the comments if Noel suddenly started wearing plain sweaters/jumpers?

I had to stop following the show on Facebook because of spoilers.
