  1. I would watch Louis dub foreign movies all day long. That was some funny stuff!
  2. Yes, where is Codependents? That show is a double dose of dysfunction, with a Crazy-Eyed Intervenionist!
  3. I find Philip annoying as well, and kind of seedy looking. Maybe it's my Hi-Def tv but he looks like he needs a shower and a shave. Which is kind of logical if he's an absent-minded professor, but I still don't like it. I am, however, in awe of his risk-taking, as I would never ever ever be so bold in my wagering. But I hate the slowness of the game play, and the fact that the board looks like it's been shot full of holes during the game. Makes my stabby...
  4. I guess I don't pay enough attention to this show, but I don't remember when Will and his partner decided to high-tail it to Big Bear. Have they mentioned it at all in previous episodes? Did I miss the discussion about getting the missing son?
  5. I got Mont Blanc! In my game, I also got the question right in regards to a luxury fountain pen...and I said "Mon Blan" because I too speak French (sort of...). Don't hate people who can actually pronounce foreign words correctly.
  6. First time I've cut and pasted a quote! I live in the great state of Vermont, and trust me, there are *lots* of McDonald's here! However, Montpelier is tiny and does not have one in the city limits. You only have to go a few miles to the next city over, hardscrabble Barre, to get your Big Macs. Montpelier does have (or did, I haven't been in a few years) a Dunkin Donuts on State Street. Back to topic: this was an instaget for me!
  7. I do not understand why almost every one of the contestants felt the need to do full facial masks. Mr. Westmore even said partial applications were better. Work on the nose, the teeth, chins, maybe. Different eyecolor contacts. What is wrong with these people? Or you know, use makeup! I loved the idea of this particular challenge, but yeesh, these contestants are awful! (I thought my hi-def tv was to blame, but no, they really were THAT terrible!)
  8. Just the worst. Mama Love looks like a Drag Queen. Courtney, Layla, Noah and Joe are ALL delusional since they think that personal trainers are the Shit. Why do I watch? I try to pick up tips, but if I've seen one squat I've seen 'em all. Can we see something different, please?
  9. Farrah's babbling sounded to me like an amalgamation of Drunk Girl You Met at a Party and Sarah Palin...complete and utter nonsense said with complete certainty. Why does every single woman who is involved with Farrah look like a porn star? Birds of a feather?
  10. If Marcus Samuelsson helped create new menus for American Airlines, then thank you very much. I flew AA to and from Scotland and the meals they served were pretty damn good for airline food. They had a Thai chicken dish that I regretted not taking because it was very tasty. I had a chicken and pasta which was better than average.
  11. I just checked the State Dept's Visa Bulletin from July 2015. Family reunification visas for unmarried sons and daughters from Mexico have a priority date of 15NOV1994, which means they are processing visa applications that they received BEFORE November 15, 1994. Brothers and sisters from Mexico have a priority date of 01MAR1997. I thought they used to break it all down by country, but this visa bulletin lists China, Mexico, India and the Phillipines. And the number of visas therefore is very small.
  12. Family reunification visas take forever. Every country has a limit on the number of visas they can approve for family members, and it's not unusual for decade-long waits. Especially when you must be a citizen first (and US citizenship can take six or more years to obtain AFTER you become a permanent resident). So Devar's K1 visa would be much faster. I don't really care too much about Devar and Mel as a couple. She's an adult and can do whatever she wants to. What made me crack up was when she said (a few episodes ago), "Oh, there's so much to arrange for our wedding. We don't have the rings, I don't have a dress, I don't have A CAKE (emphasis mine)." Oh Mel, seriously, a cake is the least of your worries. Can you imagine a grown woman losing sleep over that?
  13. Raquel is the epitome of the cliché of the Millennial Employee. Which is sad, because I believe that each person should not be judged against the clichés of their particular generation. But she is spoiled, unable to work without constant praise, believes the world owes her respect...HER! I understand hating your boss, I get it, but please be discreet about it. Wait...it's Bravo; there's no payoff in being discreet about anything. She should hie herself over to that RHOBH spin-off, VanderPump Rules. She'd be a shoo-in (full disclosure: I've only ever seen commercials for it, never watched an episode) for the workplace DRAHma.
  14. BREASTS BREASTS BREASTS! Use the grown-up words, Human Sexuality Professor. Boner? Seriously? I cannot stand it when a grown woman sounds like Beavis and Butthead. Hate! As much as Doc Dubrow is annoying, at least he almost always uses the term, "breast." Gotta give him credit for that.
  15. I'm not a comic book reader or a super hero movie watcher so will someone please explain the Paul Bettany line the fanboy asked him to say? Also, hated the orange tinted glasses on what appears to be a very handsome young man.
  16. I am also having a terrible time understanding the actors. My closed captioning is not working for an unknown reason, and that has always been my savior with these kinds of shows. I do love hearing the singsong Welsh accents, but I don't know what they're saying. I thought the trapper with the sheep was a really ugly woman, and since I didn't understand anything s/he said, it took until maybe the third hour that I realized it was a guy. Color me confused.
  17. I agree. I am getting very tired of dick and sex jokes. Comedians: Can't we be a little more whimsical/clever/absurd?
  18. I have to mute the TV whenever she starts blathering. I am done listening to her...and guess what, so far it hasn't made a lick of difference!
  19. I took a subscription to Marie Claire as the least bad premium offer from some points-based card. I am a "woman of a certain age" who also subscribes to Vogue...at least I did until I saw Kardashians and Biebers in every issue...now that subscription will end too. Marie Claire is seriously the worst. The.Worst. I can't decide which was worse: the ugly models, the ugly features, the ugly layout. Looking at a fur feature in JULY was...indescribable. In Vogue, if you are looking at the prices, for the most part they give you them: proudly in the thousands of dollars. Marie Claire would be so coy...."prices upon request." I happen to think Nina Garcia is a classy, well-dressed woman with very nice taste. but her magazine is just bad.
  20. I definitely heard 40 years as well, and was wondering what the hell crime do you commit to get that? I have read many a rap sheet in my time, and that sentence is highly unusual...serial killers and major drug smuggling conspiracies.
  21. WRT Joanne? Laurie's (?) love for TER being so timely, I don't think there's a conspiracy going on. I just figured the producers ask a lot of questions in interviews with the contestants, one of which might be something like, "Is there a person on TV or in the movies who exemplifies your aesthetic or whose clothing you admire?" They got lucky this time that (person whose name I don't remember) actually mentioned one of their judges, and they were able to make it part of the story line.
  22. I was confused at one point and thought Mitch and the sick kid were sitting on a park bench under the Evil Cat Tree and I was so excited to see the cats go after the kids in the playground. Then I rewinded (rewound?) and they were in Boston, not LA. So I was sad. I think the rats hit every floor button like an annoying kid does and so they hit every floor but just exited the elevator when they smelled the blood of the Zoo Croo. Why were they all looking for Frenchie Bug Eyes? She was just behind Door Number Three, wasn't she? Weren't they all talking not two minutes before the Flood o' Rats? Still no killer zebras. Sigh.
  23. I am a relatively new Face Offer and I have a really basic question: who actually creates the costumes and backdrops for the models? Do they have a room full of costumes that they reserve, or do they have costumers running up the dresses the day the contestants are sculpting and molding? It seems like the contestants have a lot of decisions to make in addition to the actual makeup choices. Oh, and I am also surprised that there is so much use of masks, etc. Why can't they just use makeup on the faces for a change? I guess I am just unclear on the concept.
  24. I have the deepest sympathy for the contestants, (while still being a sarcastic, mean Previously TV board watcher type), and always wish I was in a game with different categories. I came in second when the champ was a runaway winner, and I still blame the categories. I was in the WRONG GAME!
  25. Eliza's account was too true! I also couldn't watch my piled-up Jeopardy! episodes for months when I got back from my taping. Are we the only two? I spent a half-hour in the makeup chair because I warned the lovely makeup artist that I am prone to rosacea redness when I am under stress, so she really did a fantastic job making sure I didn't look like I was having a heart attack! I would have loved to mingle with the other contestants afterwards, but there were hordes of middle school students on a field trip and I could barely locate my best friend in the throngs. Couldn't get within a mile of the awards cabinets in the hallway. I also had reams of unanswerable questions on my questionnaire, and I am considerably older than Eliza. Yes, Alex, I am a boring boring person.
