  1. I didn't see that at all! He judged as well as or better than some judges have in the past, maybe not HCJr., but certainly J"Goosies"Lo! And I'll be watching that one girl Adam insisted wasn't ready, just to see whose ear was most discerning!
  2. ADAM! Seconding Travis! And I liked the Girl with the Guitar who sang right before him! Frankie Napolitano Accent or Suit was okay, too!
  3. This is the show I saw on January 10: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCRERfiqG-fUbG5dWOU9zQjQ I thought it was superb! The big surprise for me was that I really liked Mark Ballas's singing!
  4. Eolivet: Neither man was a “teenybopper” during C.App., and Clay wasn’t even one at the height of his fame! Nor were his fans and/or C.App. donors! I didn’t mind Kate; she seemed to keep the baking on task. But she talked too much in the BR . GG is no dummy; I’d bet Geraldo is in his sights after the latter’s dismissive attitude towards him (and to EYE-an, also). As for his (GG’s) $$ contacts: Part of the show’s strategies is to keep your Deep Pockets until you’re the PM. Maybe GG didn’t feel like helping out Geraldo? Speaking of whom: Geraldo’s poster?! Who knew there was a serious threat to The Donald’s title of Biggest Ego? PBGamer89: Not only are Reality Shows a second wind for celebs; they have become careers for regular Joes and Janes (See: Gosselin, Kate. See: Housewives, Real.). Padma: It’s Kevin, the married one who had his own Reality Show. And he was focused on a lot. Padma: ITA.There was a day when Apprentices, if not the Celeb ones, sold items (even rented apartments!) and won on that basis alone. What is the frickin’ point of making pies or sandwiches or anything to sell, if the Rolodex is all that matters? Just put these people in a room with nice chairs and let them cajole and wheedle their contacts for an hour. Sadly, Piers was 100% correct in his advice. They all DO know to line up donors before the show’s filming begins, right? :-P HappyDancex2: Ivanka is, indeed. Mainly because she has availed herself of the same plastic surgery being criticized herein re: Female contestants. Trump: That it might be unseasonably cold one day in NYC does not refute science, okay? Leave big issues to the big IQ’s.
  5. I'm pretty sure we can leave Bill Clinton out of this. If anything, he gave TMI. We do?! I missed that convo. As I said somewhere about him, Danny's father lives a stone's throw from Philly, so his bilge about "mixed-race marriages aren't accepted here" is horse-feathers. Danielle and Mo: Come on; she wanted a hot Middle Eastern guy--- money, daughters, and common sense be darned. As for "acceptable": He ain't blind. And I'd bet he ain't a pre-marital "Danny."** For him to say more would have completely destroyed his credibility, and he recognized that. **ETA: Back in Tunisia, I mean.
  6. Jodithgrace, that is the best post ever in Posterville! "I'd prefer not to." Bwahahahaha!
  7. I taught English, AliceGoodDay! And I was quite surprised to hear Poe for New England! Baltimore, anyone?! As for "The Raven" plate, nobody forced that poem on Gregory; he could have cooked a beef "Tell-Tale Heart"! :-P I thought the "Carrie" plate was awesome! Q-F: I didn't think the sausage patty should have won. ETA: "Where did they find those authors?" "Why not Alcott or Wharton"? Because everyone who went to a U.S. high school has read some Dickinson, Thoreau, and Poe; has heard of Hawthorne's works ("The Scarlet Letter"!) and Dr. Seuss; and has probably read some King (or seen the movies). Alcott and Wharton, not so much! Hee! Here's an ED poem for Doug:
  8. "yet after finding out that she is flat broke he still makes the decision of marrying her? why?" Even for a Tunisian, the lure of appearing on American television must be powerful. That, and the green card!
  9. Female here. I'm seriously losing my hair. It's genetics for me. One uses hairpieces, powders, and other cover-ups.
  10. "Help me!"
  11. Danielle and Mo: Mo should pardon the expression, but OY. He must have been thinking, "Not even a burqa...." Was he trying to send S.O.S. signals telepathically to that minister? Is Danielle's family from the state of Delusional? Or is it just that, in the Land of No Self-Awareness, the Cross-Eyed Obese No-Make-Up Woman is Queen? Mo is currently frantically searching for his passport. Danny and Amy: I'm not far from Norristown, which is hard by Philly, so Pops and his "inter-racial marriage isn't accepted here" is bizarre at best. Amy seems too mature for the lucky man-child that is her husband. She sure is lovely. Jason and Cassia: He is CREEPY and TOO OLD for her! The reason she got mad and possibly made a bad first impression on his mother is that he CHEAPED OUT on the promised ROSES. HE made the bad first impression, to which Cassia emotionally reacted. But this "Bachelor Party" deal, getting her and himself drunk and then leaving her sitting at the table ALONE? Those men, each one, showed supreme disrespect to Cassia. I'd have walked and never looked back. Brett and Daya: There's full lips, and then there's Brett's blubbery lips. I liked the brief "House Hunters" segment, at least. I've just discovered this weirdly fascinating show and caught up on episodes yesterday. It's funny; the premise seems to be that the foreigners are deserving of suspicion over the Holy Grail of the Green Card. But the Americans have their own desires and agendas, also. Now I must watch a marathon of Season One!
  12. I think Katsuji's "attitude" kicked in when he was overlooked for EC. Then he became all "Fine; I'll just do my thing." Either Plain Jane or Dithering Blonde could have gone home to suit me. Who makes crepes the day before? Who doesn't train the runners/servers? Who doesn't greet the JUDGES?! But then, what EC doesn't understand that the term means "one who executes"?
  13. Having eaten both lambs' and calves' brains, I can say they are creamy, but not really "cheese-like." But the cleaning might strike some as gross! I just learned that there are two episodes tonight!
  14. Keith should not have won. He had almost non-existent "product placement" in the MCM picture.
  15. Aaargh! They should re-name this show "Project Runway: UP-TALK." Because they all TALKED? In this annoying MANNER? Especially the JUDGES? My version: "I took sewing in 7th grade and have HATED sewing ever since."
  16. Only Sean had RUNWAY attire. The rest had Kohl's.
  17. Heidi's choosing Sean's blue fringed dress for the Red Carpet was a harbinger. I'm a fringe fan, going back to the days of "Hullabaloo," so YAY, SEAN!
  18. The auf'ed chef wanted to cut the chops in half, no? She was concerned about cooking them through. So I think she was done in by her team-mates. Voltaggio's Shadow: Very full of herself. Blondie vs. The Jerk: I think she was manufacturing drama when he was simply sitting there speaking calmly. Neither produced a good dish, though. Bwah! I got a "Maddie and David" vibe, too!
  19. Insufferable Award: Contestant Division seems destined for the chef who sounds like Santino from PR. I never heard or experienced this about pork. Moreover, why would "asian cuisine" use a wine from Spain?
  20. I find Kelly Cutrone unattractive on many levels. But deliberately looking slatternly is at the top. Adam, IMO, had the best acting assignment, particularly with his final line. Mirjana isn't even cute, let alone model-worthy, again IMO. Tyra's make-unders continue to baffle me.
  21. I have been a huge AC fan for over 50 years. I disliked these two openers for these reasons: ~~Don't care for Julia McK. AT ALL. ~~Didn't like all the whispered dialogue. ~~Didn't like all the dark and murky lighting. ~~And the cleverness of the clue didn't warrant 90 minutes of "GF." DID like the Ian Fleming bits (yeah, over 50 years for that one, too!)!
  22. I think Val is copying Maks's Glitter Ball moves: holding his partner's face while looking intently into her eyes, e.g. That and the reported (faux-)romance. http://www.theepochtimes.com/n3/974443-janel-parrish-and-val-chmerkovskiy-dating-rumors-about-parrish-cheating-on-payson-lewis/
  23. Couldn't stand the delusional arrogance of Sandhya; good riddance.
  24. (Are we not supposed to know that's a kitten?) I was facing my computer; did Tom B. keep a straight face when he said the men were (paraphrasing) concerned about their ballroom? At least, that's how I heard it! I'm glad that Alfonso was picked to reprise, as I had missed the opening show. He was awesome, but ringers will be the demise of this show, IMO.
  25. Can't stand Nicole. She's a complete phony. And why substitute clams for shrimp or crawfish just because clams are "Jersey Shore"? Luca is definitely not ear-candy. So Ciao, Luca, next week. That leaves Lenny, the male counterpart to the Pioneer Woman. Meh.
