  1. I couldn't get past how much the lead actress looks like a young Kristin Davis with some Maggie Q and Kim Kardashian thrown in.
  2. I was so sad to have Nicky and her absolutely adorable accent leave the tent...but very thankful Saku gets another week! She is so sweet and she makes me laugh every episode.
  3. I knew before I clicked that it would be an Alan Sepinwall article. His amazing website, where he did reviews of all the episodes back in the day, helped me fall in love with the show.
  4. Very bold strategy from Emily, waiting a whole ten minutes into the game to basically go scorched earth with a sprinkling of possible racism for good measure. I'm definitely Team Kaleb and Sabiyah on that tribe - but I also had the same WTF look on my face that Emily did when the whole alien/battery pyramid theory was mentioned. Hopefully it never comes up again, so I can forget all about it. And of course I hated Hannah and Brandon. I know myself, I would get sick on the flight to Fiji and for sure sick on the boat, not to mention I hate bugs, the outdoors and physical competitions. Also, can't swim. So I would never audition to be on this show. As someone said earlier, those two obviously just wanted to be on TV. Clearly they should have tried for Big Brother instead.
  5. @Jaded Yep, I think that's probably the guest appearance that sticks out the most in people's minds lol I think I'll always appreciate her guest role on NYPD Blue the most, because I tuned in just to see her and that ended up becoming my favorite drama series of all time. Plus, it was Jimmy Smits' first episode! (I remember her saying that Linda Dano was a huge fan of the show, so Alicia got Jimmy and Dennis Franz to sign her script and she gave it to Linda.)
  6. I've wondered that for 30 years, because I think she's a phenomenal talent...not to mention a badass woman and all around fabulous human being. She's worked consistently for decades, but it just seems like the stars never aligned to for her to become a household name like I had always hoped she would. At least she's always had steady work, though. I haven't listened yet, but I already know I'm going to love it lol
  7. I follow our beloved Linda Dano on Instagram and she has started a podcast called "In with Linda Dano" that I think AW fans would definitely enjoy. So far she's had Stephen Schnetzer, Anna Holbrook, Judi Evans and Anna Stuart, plus some non-AW folks like Robert S. Woods, Deidre Hall and Erika Slezak. I'm just keeping my fingers crossed that she has Alicia Coppola on soon!
  8. You're right - Andy held his head under the sink behind the bar, trying to get answers about Danny's whereabouts. It might have even been Greg Grunberg, if I'm remembering correctly.
  9. I haven't watched the final episode yet, so I had to come here first and make sure those miserable heifers from Khana lost before I even bothered. Congrats, Easy Vegan!!
  10. Well, I just misread those two all the way around, didn't I? lol
  11. I actually thought Dan and Cheeney had a crush on each other because they were so touchy feely as partners and I think even kissed on the lips when she left. Clearly I know nothing lol. Pretty eye opening that they're all supposed to be skilled survivalists and only two of them could make primitive fire. Kudos to Waz and Dan for that.
  12. I met Mindy Cohn at a fan convention this past weekend and the whole "never meet your heroes" thing certainly does not apply to her. She was by far the kindest, warmest, most engaged person I met all day. Just absolutely lovely and gracious in every way, like she was your oldest friend and hadn't seen you in years.
  13. I was glad to see Matt go just because I've gotten sick of his and Waz's attitudes. I also think he laid the injury thing on a little extra thick at the end because he was embarrassed about getting beat by Jeff. I wish I hadn't deleted my recording because I specifically remember someone (can't remember if it was a contestant or the show's voiceover) say it was up to them if they went to get water first or if they went to find the gourd first. But the clue posted above obviously contradicts that. Interesting. I hope Gary or Steven win.
  14. I met Vicki, Dorothy and Allan on Saturday! Dorothy and Allan were very chatty and friendly, Vicki was cordial. I did ask Dorothy if she's still in touch with Beverly Archer and she said yes, from time to time. She said they used to run into each other in the same small town in upstate NY, and that Beverly is completely retired now and has no interest in doing conventions, even though she's been asked. I also went to their joint Q&A session, which was fun, I just wish it could've been longer. They talked about how they had the show down to such a science that it once only took them 27 minutes to shoot an episode. Allan's favorite episode was "the Keke" with Yeardley Smith (one of mine too), and Dorothy got Yeardley the job because she had previously directed her in a play. Dorothy also said that one of her favorite episodes was the one where Naomi wants to be a stewardess - just because she thought she looked great in the outfit lol The sweetest thing was when they talked about Ken Berry, and the love between Vint and Naomi. Dorothy said she wanted to show real marital love and bring great marital sex back to tv lol. Allan told a lovely story about how Dorothy and Ken were just as loving during rehearsals as they were during taping, and that Dorothy would hold Ken's "pudgy little hands" and kind of looked after him like Naomi did with Vint. He got choked up talking about him.
  15. ITA about Waz and Matt, they're both getting downright unpleasant to watch. Waz seemingly wants to control everyone else's behavior and Matt was nasty to Gary for no reason. He wasn't mad at the rapids, he was just being a dick because he felt superior. Like Gary said, I could see him directing that attitude towards Jeff, but Gary didn't deserve it, especially since it really did look like he was in trouble in the water a couple of times. I thought the same thing! It wasn't on top of the "raft" and neither he nor Gary seemed to be carrying it. I was perplexed. And all I can see when I look at Jeff is that creepy televangelist Joel Osteen. They have the same weird little pinched face lol
