I’m worried that he’s going to peak too early. And I will continue to shout it from the rooftops—this show needs to travel across the country.

Just saw the ad that the new season begins Oct 14, Thanksgiving Monday.

I started to tear up watching Taylor (or Katie) getting emotional being able to speaker her own language and talk about what nation she’s from. This is the game I love, not how a certain couple played it. Looking forward to the finale. I’ll be happy no matter who wins.

Note to Canadians, The Daily Show will be shown on Slice beginning September 8. I’ve missed you, show!

I’m watching episode 4, and Ryan’s conversation with Tricia Lee where he’s talking to her about her working with a developer to sell the rest of the Brooklyn Tower. I had to rematch it to confirm, but the manicure that she has at the benning of the scene is completely different from the one at the end of the scene—even though she’s wearing the same outfit.

I remember the show “Selling New York”, from about 15 years ago. They talked about how many months/ years it would take to sell a high end property, and how much the realtors spent marketing said properties. It was a great show, with no drama. I miss it.

I really don’t like that the u-turned team could choose another team to turn. I wonder if that was always the plan, or was decided when TPTB realized Kevin and Gurleen were the ones being u-turned (and hence, could create more drama). I used to spend a lot of time in Penticton, so it was great to see that part of the Okanagan.

I would love if they travelled around the country (giving side eye to Top Chef Canada, who only films in Toronto). There is so much that this country has to offer, culinarily.

New season just announced for August 15.

For anyone watching in Canada, it premieres June 10, but on the W network (season 1 was on Showcase). Had to change the series recording settings on my pvr. https://www.wnetwork.com

I spent this episode yelling at the show. I yelled at the wealthy family who had the audacity to come on this show. I yelled at the UN, who probably has better things to do than host the dragons/sharks. I yelled at coffee lady (vanillin, the synthetic version of vanilla, came from wood pulp, not castor sacs. I yelled at the plant lady, because organic uses chemicals. Ok, I didn’t yell that the flaus lady, but that might have been because I was eating apple strudel.

Was watching an old season (S14) last night, and while I had hopes for the new format, it has let me down. That season still allowed for the performers to share some aspects of themselves, but to be able to see so many styles in one night. Plus, as so many commenters have said, the focus was on the dancing, not the judges’ reactions while they are dancing. I really miss the old format.

Dance, cheer, prom. I can see a huge number of consumers. It’s so not my thing (also because I have no hair in which to put said gems), but I can see a lot of people who really would like it.

Thanks for the Star Search throwback! The dancers were my favourite part of the show. When you reach for the stars…and catch them. I’m cautiously optimistic about the new format (but really don’t care about them living together, and really don’t want the judges choosing).

I wish that the producers of Top Chef Canada would pay attention. It’s always set in Toronto (and the grocery store that they use is owned by one of the chef judges).
