  1. The first woman made up an entire novel about her ancestor. Motives, plot, supporting characters, etc. We were noticing how sharp Dr. Gates' suit game is. Does PBS shill out for a new suit for every person he interviews?
  2. Ack! I opened this to read about the US Reunion, not spoilers for the UK Season! There's another thread for that.
  3. We are spacing it out. Jaz has it. He just doesn't realize that every time he talks to people about the Paul/Harry conversation, there's a Traitor in the group.
  4. You hope they will move on. I had a pair of mourning doves try to build a nest on top of my porch light four years in a row. There's plenty of trees to build nests in. They kept coming back year after year. It was almost a peeve! Last year a humming bird nested on a low branch in my lemon tree. I kept checking it out and I think scared her off. The nest was tiny and almost furry.
  5. Oof! I've got tickets to see him in the Lehman Trilogy. Farewell Aethelheim!
  6. And my ancestors were avoiding the Prussian army. In terms of the DNA cousins - Larry David also matched with Bernie Sanders and Scar Jo with Isabella Rossellini in previous episodes.
  7. Me too. And a lot of you forget about the time difference east to west. You're done two hours before the show starts out west.
  8. It's hard but Liz has multi-colored glasses and Mo had clear glasses. But now it's pointless. I'm with those who think that the team that "wins" the merge shouldn't get to vote in the tribal.
  9. The stairs go around the lobby as described in the book. Most big/grand hotels have big lobbies for people to sit in.
  10. She's always circling the drain but coming up with a miraculous save. The color change on the tsunami was fantastic.
  11. Loved Fraser snapping back at Jill! Now he needs to work on folding a blanket into a rocket ship. The Scottish guy is great.
  12. It was the attorney for either the town or the school board who refused to engage with Jones or his followers. The problem with exhuming is the scale. If they had exhumed one body, run DNA tests to confirm parenthood, then the Jonesers would have said that the other ones were faked. What if one of the kids was adopted? What if one family used donor sperm or eggs to conceive? There would always be room for conspiracy theorists to see conspiracy.
  13. They were cast during Covid. I'm sure the pool of people who were willing to risk their lives to get out of their protective bubbles and go on the race was a little bit smaller than normal.
  14. That sounds awful. Drinking beer out of the champagne glasses was cheesy. Why didn't they use champagne flutes? They're just skinny beer glasses. Or just give everyone a flagon. I thought the soup that the losing chef made looked great and sounded like a great concept. That's the problem with not getting to taste anything.
  15. Was Jem the one who told someone he was her meat shield? Or was that Venus? You can't do that! New Era sucks. Too many identical challenges - do they think we're betting on whether it's sandbags or puzzles at the end? They used to throw in a pity challenge when one tribe was getting decimated - often something that had to be "judged." Or bring back the gross food challenges, those mix things up. Hunter losing the journey challenge because there was something about Survivor that he neglected to memorize was epic. And good for Q for trying something strategic.
  16. This was chilling. 1 in 4 people believed him. And that woman who thought the bodies should be exhumed because she "watches a lot of true crime and they exhume bodies all the time." People's purient interests don't require action on anyone else's part. I wonder what he said after Las Vegas.
  17. There aren't mountains like that on the Eastern seaboard and I doubt they are in Vermont. It looked like the Tetons to me. I gave up on everything Walking Dead a few seasons ago and am only watching this for Rick and Michonne. There's no way they wrap this up in 1 more episode.
  18. "We were never here!" and baby alien is back!
  19. I think it's difficult to know what to practice. In a season set in Wisconsin, wouldn't you expect challenges based on cheese, bratwurst, certain ethnic cuisines - but not stuffed pasta, soup, or roast chicken? In Top Chef France they don't have to shop for themselves, so Kevin is at a disadvantage there. This season the judges are going to taste at the Quickfires as well as the Elimination challenges. Only Padma tasted the Quickfires up to now and had to lose weight by the end. Gail, in particular, looked poured into her clothes this episode. Will she be in caftans by the end of the season?
  20. First season UK had the dating couple Tom and someone. Tom spectacularly outed them during one of the breakfasts. Ross and Diane are handling this better.
  21. Amber did well enough to help earn the US three spots for next year, so the federation should be happy with her. It's so sad to see her land the hardest jump, and then fall apart on the rest of the program.
  22. So far Ross and Diane are doing so much better than the "secret duo" in the last season it isn't funny. Although Diane starting to suspect her son of being a traitor is. We think he's deliberately wearing those awful glasses to disguise the shape of his face. Diane is the CT of this season - she's banked the most money. Are they doing the challenges in the exact order from the US show? And it's definitely warmer - they were wearing shorts in the last episode.
  23. We saw the actual dress at the end of the first episode. Compared to some other shows I've been watching recently, this moves at a cracking pace and doesn't cover and recover the same ground. I'm looking at you Feud! I appreciate the show comparing what's happening to Dior and Channel. LeLonge and Dior made dresses for the Nazi wives and girlfriends while Channel closed her atelier and perfume business, but then partied with the Nazis. On the surface, they appear about equally guilty of collaboration. It's just knowing more details about Channel's association with Spatz and the bribes to get her nephew out of prison leading to her trying to contact Churchill that make her greater involvement apparent.
  24. This was just terrible. I don't really feel like watching more episodes. They don't need to be 90 minutes. They're just editing in a bunch of fluff. What makes a show like this great is the editing. You lose that and you lose the show. Was that one of the sound guys helping Walla Walla mom out with the cold towel?
