Orca whales would be black on top. Great white sharks are grey on top. Both have dorsal fins. Sharks would have a caudal fin (essentially up and down) as it's tail, which goes side to side. Whales have tail flukes that go up and down. 

Since it's promo crap FROM Discover Channel, who sponsors Shark Week, I suspect the grey on top, white underneath dorsal finned plushie is indeed a shark.

I have mixed feelings about Shark Week. Movies give a bad impression of sharks, who are basically minding their own business unless a human accidentally gets in the way and confuses them. 

Same here, I never watch shark week because it perpetuates the myth that sharks are evil, ferocious monsters who hunt for humans to eat.

of course Amy will promote anything for a buck 👎🏻

It used to but they've toned that down and now are about conservation - there's one about how shark fin soup harvesting is bad (called "Fin"), Great White Comeback - searching for great whites, and Mothersharker, which is about where tiger sharks birth their babies. And of course some ridiculous celebrity stuff. But no more "be afraid, be very afraid" stuff.

Who are her bridesmaids? And Maid of 😄 honor?

Well, toady Lisa; who else?  She's there for Amy through thick and thin!

As for bridesmaids, there are Deb, Amy's sister, her daughter, and three DsIL, although I doubt none but Deb and Tori would appear in this dog-and-pony show.

I wonder if the "wedding" is just for the cameras and they secretly plan to be married privately and quietly later, hence the air quotes.  Thus Chris could go through with the former for the TLC paycheck, but duck out of the real deal!

Apropos of nothing, what is written on that necklace she always wears (the silver rectangle)?  I could swear I read "Amy" on it.

I always thought her love of adventure when with Matt was sort of an FU to him, showing off doing things he couldn't do, then I noticed Chris said he really enjoyed having someone to do these things with for a change, so maybe she did them to please (snag) him.  And for SM.  And maybe still as an FU to Matt.  I notice she said she'd TRY to go on his bike rides with him this year but, you know, she'll be so busy with wedding planning and all!

I never thought she looked very physically comfortable on the back of that hog.

The adventuring is the only thing I can see them having in common.

I think we’ve all known people (usually coworkers) where we think, “how does their spouse put up with them?” and I’m sure (I know) it’s been said about my marriage. I’m just chalking it up to something like this. A mystery that will never be explained. 
I still predict a short marriage though.

This season Amy has focused on her wedding plans, but she used to be very focused on adventure.  She used that word a lot. I used to marvel that a woman her age was so hell bent on adventures.  She’s gone on hot air balloon rides, snorkeling, zip lining, motorcycling,  sky diving, etc.  She lives for adventure!

My guess is, Amy is going to be a dud with a "stud" who (Amy) will not be interested in "adventure" with once she's sealed the deal.

It will be all about Miss Bulldozer and "bait and switch."  Don't say nobody warned you Chris. He's going to be back at the strip clubs in a Portland minute.

All of this was part of the show wasn't it, I don't think she had a choice.  TLC had to have them doing things and going on "adventures". Can't continually watch the kids destroy the home while her and Matt argue over it.

I agree a lot is contrived by production, but Amy was big on a adventure before Chris.  Recall the hot air balloon with Molly or opening up that pop up cafe?     There are other times as well that she talked about adventures.   I wonder how many times she’s said that on the show......I guess it’s a good thing.  Maybe, I need to incorporate it into my vocabulary a little more.

Plus she went hang gliding, which is super fun, and tried that improv class.  Now whether that was Matt or producer driven, she seemed to end up liking it.

When she is making the glaze for the scones she adds too much milk, so she dumps the whole thing and starts over instead of adding more sugar.  She did this because she said she didn't want to have way more glaze than she needed.  Makes no sense, either way she threw it out🤣   Could have done without the mouth full of scone awkward smacking at the end.  Bonus pawing body slamming.

One of the comments was "This is like watching a two year old do arts and crafts"🤭

The whole demonstration was disorganized and very messy, but there was no garlic, and the pastries probably tasted pretty good. The ingredients were fresh and nice.

Imo, most recipes for icing, toppings, etc. make too little.  To really cover the food, you need to double it.  Is that just me?

She had already put a cream and sugar glaze on the scones, so the icing was just a decorative drizzle. If she had frosted them, it might have been sugar overload (not that that ever stopped her). I didn't get throwing out the entire first batch of icing because it was too thin. She could have just poured out some of the liquid or thrown away any extra icing she made when adding more sugar to thicken it.  

I did laugh when she grabbed a set of measuring spoons (not cups) to scoop the chopped strawberries into a bowl, two or three little pieces at a time. It took her six minutes to chop the berries, and about another two minutes to get half she needed into the bowl. 

I saw only one instance of finger licking, and that was after the scones were plated. Bravo!

I just watched the strawberry scone video, and I think I gained a couple of pounds just watching.  All that butter plus whipping cream?  Milk would have been just fine.

She needs to learn to turn off the video when she's chopping some of the ingredients.  The strawberry chopping took at least five minutes.  Her videos would improve if she'd watch some of the professionals.

She should clip her hair back when she's cooking. 😟

Rubber utensils would be a plus. 😁

Me me me in the front and the groom is somewhere in the back 🤣🤣🤣

At least she remembered to say "our" wedding this time.

Or should that be our "wedding"?

She sure seems to be at the farm a lot lately for someone who claimed there would never be a reason for her to step foot on it ever again!

What is a "wedding ring setting"; she's having the little heart-shaped diamond reset in another band?  Or they're buying a set of matching wedding bands???

With her love of wine, Amy is probably a bit tipsy more often than not.  Not that there's anything wrong with that...

I’m actually surprised she waited this long to get her wedding ring set.  Maybe she had it pick out before and is just now shilling the place.  Is this store the same place Chris got the engagement ring?  I’m wondering if the complementing band will have little hearts.  Speaking of matching bands,  I’m wondering if Chris gets a say in his wedding band or if Amy made rules for that or maybe she will pick his since he got to pick her engagement ring.
