They're about the Challenge. I post links on the forum for that. Anybody watching Denver marathon right now?

I'm back. Here's "Cold-Butted Snakes." I'll try to get the rest of the season's recaps posted without huge delays.

Funny115 reaches the Abi-Maria/RC "friendship." While I still maintain that Camila from The Challenge is the bigger psycho from Brazil . . . I am reminded as to why RC spoke so much ill of Abi-Maria at TARCon.

As we close in on the close of the Kalos League seasons, I just want to share this Pokémon/The Walking Dead mashup. "Michonne, dat's right!!!" Anybody got a strong opinion on Ash-Greninja? Of course Ash wouldn't just have a Pokémon for mega-evolution. No, he finds a way to super-power Greninja with a linked bond.

Sad news . . . co-creator Steve Dillon passed away.

Why does anybody not flee in terror when the words "Real World" are uttered?!? Bad enough that the twists are being anticipated now, but we get reasons to despise the people coming in beside the fact that they're going to be despised. This show should be akin to villages sacrificing virgins into a volcano. With this stupid show, people are doing belly flops into the lava, even though it stopped being a hit ages ago. If I had a favorite right now, it would be Tyara. I don't care if she's really Karen from Georgia. She seems to be real, she's loosening up, and she and Theo pulled a good prank. Katrina is probably still waiting for "John." Oh and her Bad Blood probably needs to be knocked down a peg. Still hating Mike, even before he defiled Anika's bee. I can totally see him boning a friend over AYTO prize money. If he got any of that, he'd probably funnel that into shitty, shitty tattoos. BMP should've put the BBs in Portland with Nia for four months. That would've been painful. ETA: Caught the "Bad Blood" special. I miss Daisy, poop and all. She was probably smarter than anybody in that house. Did not miss Ryan Leslie and Greg the "Chosen One." Remember him? When MTV opened up a slot to an online poll, and people got together to make sure the biggest asshole made it in? Gimmicks: Didn't work then, don't work now. Also, I like to think the panelists chugged through a RW3 marathon, because their utter hatred of Puck was so intense. It should've been "The House vs. Puck," and not just Pedro.

I like this guy. Gotta respect his hustle when he Hantzed himself a second idol. Basically, he might be the white male Cirie to me, in the sense of being a fan and over his head. Also, as a Mets fan, I'm happy that a David Wright is competing and staying healthy.

I got my ticket for Union Square. I hope I'm not the only one reading this that's going to go. ETA: Here's where you can get tickets. It's going to be screened nationwide, so you might get to check it out.

Both Dr. Mid-Nite and Obsidian were white in the comics. Obsidian can manipulate darkness to a certain degree. He was the son of Alan Scott, the "original" Green Lantern, so World War II wouldn't be a place to find him. Dr. Mid-Nite lost his sight, but developed goggles that helped him see. This came in handy while in dark spaces. If you squint, he's kinda/sorta like Daredevil, which is probably why he was put into this show. Anybody else feel the JSA were shortchanged? I'm not expecting full backstories, but they seemed like placeholders for the most part. We didn't see what made Rex an "Hourman."

I'm caught up after binging on four episodes in two days. I'm kinda/sorta caring about these people, especially Kudelia, who is still learning about stuff. Pity the handmaiden had to bite it. What was her name, again? Fuminmation?

Anybody else checking SBP periodically? No new names, and Derrick's picture is off. Is he no longer being cast?

Even if the Dodgers wind up advancing, they would try for their first title in 28 years. Drop in the bucket compared to the Cubs and Indians, but it still feels like forever ago.

Four-plus hours for a nine inning game on a cable network. Not a good look for MLB. Also: didn't the Cubs go into Wrigley with a 3-2 lead in 2003? Just sayin'.

Good episode. Might have been reaching into Marvel's sandbox, but it was a good way to waste an hour. I'm good with Sara being leader, even if she is the best of a team that's more of a formless mass than the JSA operates. Martin was a unique fit as leader, since he's basically the invisible partner in Firestorm. Nice that he got one song out of his tenure. Oh, and how funny was it for Ray to be unable to heil properly? You can't blame the guy . . . he's got seventy years of history forcing his arm down. Once again, Eobard ruins everything. If you've never seen The Flash, that's par for him. And speaking of Barry's show, I'm still in favor of the "Legends" swinging by Central City 2016 for the express purpose of dope-slapping him. It's the only way he'll learn not to meddle in the past.

Gotta love the collective shock from both sides upon seeing Cartman and Heidi. The one girl passing out was the cherry on top. I think that beats Bebe puking at the assembly. ETA: Does the Danes' song sound like "Ching chong ching," or am I reading too deeply into things?

Hey, I liked The Force Awakens, even if JJ Abrams wiping his ass with a picture of George Lucas would have been less expensive. Wow, Cartman having Heidi as a significant other is not going over well. Of course Cartman wouldn't do actual work beyond singing. It's almost going to be a shame when he'll end up losing her. If only real life worked like it does on this show. Run, Garrison!! And notice Caitlyn doesn't have to flee. Then again, she'd just run over her pursuers.

It's official. . . the facial T does not work outside of comics. Nice that Terry Sloane is now synonymous within the franchise. Too bad that fucker Jon Dalton took "Fair Play" and shit all over it. At least the rookies are gelling, and they probably wouldn't change history for their own ends, Barry. Still don't know the new girl's name, though. Nice for Deadshot to come back, albeit as a guilt specter. Too bad he couldn't shit on Will Smith like most fans like to do. Here's hoping Diggle's story picks up, because it's super depressing as it is. Hi, Quentin! Funny that he's working for Oliver, because that would drive anybody to drink. Stereotypical Reporter needs to go away ASAP.

David is gonna be so hard to flush. Even if he's without an idol, he seems to be the sort that goes far into the game. I'm cool with that, since I probably have more in common with him than the others. That said, I was laughing so hard watching him flounder at the challenge. It did look like he was throwing it. I'm not a fan of the three tribe twist. Why punish six random players? And, natch, Tayls and Figgy Pudding are still together. That would be more annoying if I was more invested in this season. BTW, when's TAR coming back?

Did not consider that. I can hear Chiklis delivering the "Solomon Grundy, born on a Monday" line in his annoyed Barnes voice.

Cleveland just held up their end of the prophecy. Let's see if the Cubs can follow suit.

I wouldn't be surprised if NOLA (the good one) was released on the day of Mardi Gras.

Caught up. Killua's family is basically made up of sadistic assholes. At least their hires are nicer, with Canary and Old Gate Guy. And what is with the mother with the Robocop visor? ETA: Am I the only otaku that would want a crossover with Hayate the Combat Butler? I saw the first few volumes on DVD. Good stuff.

Robbie only lost because of the invisible Quinjet. And nice that Skye is back. Also thinking May would've been all "ANDROID!!!" if she thought that was a possibility. Even after death, she's still among the sharpest knifes in the drawer.

I totally forgot Shane did FM1. And Linette never popped up again, did she? No additions on SBP. I'm not pressing that hard because I might get results spoilers. I second questioning why Cara Maria is back. "Let's see . . . I beat Johnny to get to my first win, Johnny is on every season . . . maybe I'll luck out??"

"What did I tell you? Allen fucked things up again. That's twenty Earth-2 dollars you owe me." Would Julian-as-Alchemy be too obvious? I mean, he is new, and he's well-known for playing a douche, but that might be a little on the nose. I'm okay with Harry, even when he's channeling Wayne Campbell. Somebody has to be an adult on this show, since Cisco's got new trauma, and Caitlin's basically hapless until she becomes Killer Frost. Total speculation on my part on that last bit. Oh, and Wally is an idiot until further notice. I liked Cisco's reaction to "Magenta." He's gonna have a long talk with Alchemy down the road.
