    S09.E06: Showdown at the Hoedown

    in The Real Housewives Of Orange County

    I guess this season is Heather's turn for the season's "bitch edit". I loved the flashback clip that disproved Hewather's claims about Shannon in the previous ep and I did find it interesting that her reaction to Shannon (but not the others) being late is to retribute by being late for their next party, if they even bother to go. And then there's her micromanaging of their ownblown hodown...

     

    I noticed Shannon was in fishwife mode with her husband as well. Geez, no wonder he stayed so long at basketball practice!

     

    I had the feeling Tamra gave Lizzie some ad advice on dealing with Vickie. I guess she doesn't want the competition.

     

    Lastly, did Vicki's feigned ignorance about Lizzie's ancestry reminded you of one of Peter Griffin's porno stories?

    Semi-Ho Glossary

    Some terms bandies about here for the unitiated:

     

    • SLop: Sandra Lee, ol' pudding-cups. Named for her boobs and propensity to use pudding cups in her recipes.
    • The Ladder: Her current beau, Mario Cuomo
    • The Wallet: Her ex husband who bought her this show.
    • Pudding cups: Sandra's large droppy tits
    • Milli Vanilli Hands, MV hands: Food stylist doing the actual work for Sandra so the food looks semi-edible
    • Juice: the fluid in canned goods, i.e. "bean juice", "chicken juice", "pear juice", etc.
    • Set up: The process by whch Sandra leaves a food product off to the side to magically finish off the cooking process itself, ie, "the MV switcharoo"
    • Shrike: Sandra Lee detractor
    • Tablescape: The crap you put on a table for decoration and maybe still have room for the food, maybe.
    • Melon baler: a kitchen utensil used for small scoops that hibernates in winter

    .

     

    I am sure there are others I missed.

    S09.E04: Pretty Ugly

    in The Real Housewives Of Orange County

    Then I read the subsequent posts to that one and was ecstatic. I've found my people! A perfect amalgam of snarkers with a flair for vocabulary! Well done!

    "Can you use 'amalgam' in a sentence?".

     

    I found it odd how strongly Tamra fixated on the UGLY party of "ugly sweater party".

    S02.E06: The Pied Piper

    in Wonder Woman [V]

    I'm not sure which was worst:

    • Martin Mull's "roll and roll" "music"
    • Martin Mull being "teh sexy" and having groupies
    • Martin Mull's Elvis outfits
    • Martin Mull's "groovy and hip" dialogue

     

    I did not realize that was Eve Plumb! I remember thinking she kinda looked like Jan Brady but thought I was just mistaken. Heh.

    S02.E05: Knockout

    in Wonder Woman [V]

    Ugh, this one was a stinker!

     

    Did you notice LAX looked exactly like the airport in Argentina from the first season?

     

    Ted Shackleford plays a scientist from the future who invents a time machine to explore and research the past. Hmmm...

     

    I loved how quickly that car chase ended in rural California, next to that copse of trees we see in the opening credits.

     

    After Jane Kenedy told Steve about her Utopian plans for the future, Steve said it would more involve slavery and secret police.

     

    I was amused by the venue for that super-important meeting of world leaders -- outside, in the middle of an an open courtyard. Worst. Security. Ever!

    Small Talk: Endive Into Discussion

    Hello, fellow shrikes!

     

    ETA:

    Lord how she loves to "deconstruct" pie. Do you remember the time she bought a pie, I think it was pumpkin, then smashed it up with a fork (filling, pastry, everything mashed together into goo) and put that into a different crust?

    You're giving SLop too much credit; all she did was scoop out the filling and use it for the filling in stacks of fried wonton wrappers.
