You are correct. I guess there are too many survival shows on at the moment.

I thought Bear said the last man standing will get a half a million dollars, or am I confusing this with another show?

I guess the first rule of survival is pay attention. I wonder who in production decides whether to blur the asses or not. Does the conversation go something like this? "These asses look ok to me--no blur" "Ok" "Man, both these asses look like cottage cheese" "Maximum blur"

I think that the first episode was new, having not seen it before, and the second was a repeat.

Well, not quite yet. I DVR'd this, so I'm catching up a day late. Of all the survival shows where people are just thrown in, I thought Ryan kicked some ass. Fire, then catfish, snake and finally alligator. Then he starts making baskets to carry stuff. I think he could have lasted twice as long. Surprised he lost any weight. I thought it was funny that the show showed up with the description "alone" because I regularly watch this show, and I don't remember seeing this episode. I wish they got rid of the factoids. They contain some of the most useless information. (supposed to fire my imagination) Part two was a disappointment. It was a rerun of the "you won't let me use your knife" "forest fire" episode. I wonder if they thought part one was a "bad" episode, because Ryan never lacked for anything. He made it seem too easy. To me, it was one of the better episodes.

Just before that discussion, they were complaining that their SUVs won't fit into their garage because of their (the SUVs) height.

Wrong family.

I'm sorry, but if you drive large SUVs, and your half a million in debt, I can't feel sorry for you.

All the time when they were fishing him out of the net, I kept saying, "Get the turtle above the water, above the water". It seemed like an hour before they got him on shore.

Every new season we ask, "Hey, what happened to last year's Food Network Star?" Wait. A Drag Queen? Are you kidding me?

Another case of reality tv whoring.

Ever since season 1, everyone was speculating (at TWOP and here) how happy Kate really was and Andy's treatment of her. And his dog team seems to be getting smaller and smaller. I suspect Kate was the one who took care of the dogs. Eric's house did look very big. Especially for one (or two) people.

When informed that the store would be closed during renovations, Tonnie asked about the staff and Marcus said something to the effect of, "I'll take care of them". After deciding to have the cupcakes baked off site, with no in-house bakers needed, what happened to them? I guess Marcus really did take care of them.

Andy must miss Kate more than we thought. In last night's episode Andy kept saying (at least twice) how dangerous it is to run a 12 dog sled team, yet the team he was running only had 10 dogs.

And at the end, you couldn't pry them apart in the helicopter with the same knife.

Line of the night: Cisco's, "So long, and thanks for all the fish".

In all my years of watching cooking competitions, I had never seen anyone using a blowtorch on the bottom of a mixing bowl (while it was operating). Is eatable gold a staple in the food pantry?

If I had the hatchet, I'd be thinking "gator"; here comes 21 days of food.

What a disappointment, a non elimination leg this late in the season. Mike and Rochelle all but checked out.

Chekov wasn't in the first season, however. He was added to appeal to the "youth market" (think Beatles) and only after the Soviet Union protested that they had all other nationalities except Russian on the Enterprise. I hope this week was a blip for the show, as I didn't find the episode interesting. There is so much relationship talk on other shows, I feel it didn't belong on Startalk.

Thought the last episode dealing with the science of "Interstellar" with Christopher Nolan was illuminating. I always wonder if there is someone with a science background says "Whoa" to some of the concepts of science fiction movies. Why oh why does NatGeo have a airtime of this show at 11pm? There's so much other junk on NatGeo that they could have swapped out for this show.

This show is nothing more than the Sharks advertising their previous investments (except for the water bottle kid). And free advertising, to boot.

This is what bugged me too. The lenses have to be the exact same shape for this to work. You couldn't swap between round wire frames and square rectangle ones therefor limiting your choice in frames. The only option you would have would be the color.

I was waiting for the shoemaker to say to Blair, "Yes, it's correct, and please take her with you." Phil, stop trying to force the love at the pitstop.
