  1. My read is that they are putting out 2 hour episodes where the first hour is new, and the second one is an old episode.  At least they're not doing the "new episode" trick where they add commentary to an old episode.

    Of course the spirit guide takes a snack into a port-a-potty while he doles out helpful (?) advice.  😂  But I'm glad Bear has him, he needs someone in his corner. 

    I think Bear has everyone in his corner, he's just too young to realize it.  He has his mother, the guys from the diner, the trucker, Big, the roofers, the little guys, etc.  Everyone is quietly looking out for him, while giving him room to make his own way.

  3. It's probably the big box holding his camera equipment.  It has to be waterproof and pretty rugged.  They try hard not to include them in the shots, but sometimes they sneak in.  Some contestants have used them as stools.

    Production ignited this fuze by making them share a cabin. They knew what would happen. I think they encouraged Natasha to do the mixed signals thing.

    They also made them go out to dinner and the club and drink to excess.

    And you can't ghost someone on a boat!  If she's been a yachtie that long (she said 8 years), she should know that.  Even without the cameras, they would be on top of each other all day.

  5. I liked that it was going to be a person of color, or a woman who won this year.  Good for Juan Paulo!

    What I didn't like was that they essentially spoiled the final three in the intro scenes (the ones repeated at the beginning of each episode) because those were the only ones shown in snow.  Clearly the snow was going to come at the end, not in the middle.

    But I guess I have had this problem with the whole show. It isn’t really a contest if one person is always making Italian and one is always making seafood, etc.  They need to set some parameters around each challenge.  At least say everyone will make a chicken dish today.  I would prefer, chicken pot pie is an American classic, everyone make one.

    It's just so shapeless.  The contestants could legitimately make the same dishes day after day, and they'd meet the criteria for each day's "challenge."

    I felt so bad for John’s mom and grandmother trying to retrieve his body.

    Most of Lily and Jason’s fellow anarchists pretty much left them on their own, which was a clear sign of how soulless these people were

    Me too.

    Isn't that the definition of anarchists?  You do you and I won't care.

  8. That's just wrong.  Wordle should be played as a lonely quest - just you against the machine.  To increase your streak and do better than your friend/son/brother/daughter/spouse/co-worker/random person on the internet.

    But I did get a 1 once!

  9. Could the glitter guy be Oscar using his father's phone?  They wouldn't know the number, but he could have been in the building and texted them.

    Or it could be related to Mabel's father who (dun dun dun dun) just got brought up in this episode.  Fathers and how they may not be what they're made out to be are a real theme this season.

    I also think the peanut butter box ad (with the very big dog and very small dog) is adorable, but I have a hard time watching it without thinking, what if cats came in that variety of sizes? 

    I've had a 20 pound cat and I've had a 6 pound cat - they kind of do.

    The Great Wolf Lodge commercial came on several times last night, and I kept looking at the wolves' legs, and they all appear to have four legs to me. There is one shot where you can only see the toes on one hind leg though.

    There are several different Great Wolf Lodge commercials and the CGI on the wolves varies from horrific to bad.  The worst problem is that the aspect ratio is terribly off, probably in order to keep the kids looking normal and like they are actually riding something.  Wolves are low slung and long - the GWL wolves are high and too short from nose to rump.  When they introduce movement, the legs appear and vanish leading me to label them as three legged.  Shortening the aspect also results in the wolves looking overweight.  I don't know why they appear overly fluffy.

    No one actually goes to these places expecting to see wolves, do they?  Put the kids on ponies.

    That said, I wonder if Food Network might be trying to set up a new personality to tap into the Drag Queen craze going on at the moment.  Sugar certainly wouldn't be the one I'd want to be the Drag-face on Food Network, but they will probably try and push her nonetheless. 

    If that was the case, why not go with the Queen from Mystika Massala who could actually cook great food?

    I hope the Senoreatas win because they can cook.  There has never before been a truck who served bad food - food that someone ordered, waited for, paid a high price for, and then discarded because it tasted horrible.  And this is on a show that had an actual financial cheating scandal.

    But I won't be watching.  The show is over for me.  Bye, Tyler.  Hire ESO.
