Amazing Race-Nat and Kat First Again

Didn't think Nat and Kat had it in them to win first twice, but they opted for the fast forward and was granted it after they both part took of a traditional Norwegian delicacy, sheep's "yuck", head and poor Kat hasn't eaten meat in ten years. Kat said it right when she said that it's never a good sign when the table is set and there's a small glass of water on it. It was too funny when they kept saying during the eating, taste like cucumbers, taste like lettuce, humm taste like a million dollars, yep that's how you get through sheep grisle! Vicki and Nick once again showed their dumb and dumber side, when they went for the fast forward only to find on the door, fast forward taken. "Uh what does that mean", Vicki says perplexed? Uh, dud, it means it's gone you fools. One thing I have to say, they don't have brains but they sure do have brawn. Vicki never once complained during the bridge repel or the bike challenge. Heck, she beat Nick on the bike, after all his bragging that he is a champion bike rider. Don't want to get in her way, she'll open a can a whoop ass on you. Team Asian is still hanging in there coming in a respectable 4th. Mallory of Dad and Mallory is way too perky and is quickly beating out the TV hostess with the mostest, Brook and Claire. Notice how anything physical, Brook is like, Claire this has your name all over it. Yeah, right, I'd like to see Brook repelling up the damn bridge. Ouch I broke a nail!
Volleyball team Katie and Rachel, whom I didn't even know were in the race until last night were the last ones to step on the mat and were sent packing. This season is wild with the race up for grabs. I knew I shoulda applied for this season, I mighta had a chance!-Single D

Survivor Nicaragua-Double Elimination

I'm not getting it, why is there always people who sign up for these weeks long reality shows and half way through it starting whining about how cold it is, how hard it is, how they miss their families. Boo hoo, you signed up for it. It's not like you didn't know what you were getting yourself into, this is what the 21st season!! Dan, you need to go home. Like you said, you don't need the money, apparently you have oodles of it to spend on cars and homes, then why the heck are you sleeping in the rain, nursing your knees and suffering like a hound dog? Go home! And once again, does the tribe vote him out, nope, hey, let's vote out another strong player, Yve. Sure she's strong, but did seem to me to pose that great a threat. And hey, what was up? Did I miss something? Brenda hatches a plan to get rid of full of his self Marty out, a plan that played out perfectly during tribal, with the votes split, 3-3, but during the second vote, its Kelly B that gets the boot, I'm like, what?! Who was the traitor? It was Brenda! What happened. Did she forget to vote Marty out? What's the deal? I'm sure all the behind the scenes scheming, Marty must have gotten to Brenda, yitch! Well, I'm sure that is going to back fire. One word, stupid! Marty is a threat at challenges, so I think they missed the chance to get rid of him. Well, coconuts fall where they may, Marty is moving up the food chain. Kinda of sad to see Kelly B go and yes, if she would have made it to the end, I would have voted for her and not out of sympathy, but out of amazement, she moves faster on one leg than my sister-in-law with two!-Single D

Amazing Race-The Last Lap In Lapland for Team Glee

From scorching heat of Ghana to the Arctic Circle, whoo hoo, Kiruna, Sweden! Come on, did you pause just for a moment thinking where's the Arctic Circle? Come on, I know you did. The scenery looked absolutely amazing, put on bucket list. For once, team Asian made a smart move and decided to see if there was an earlier flight Out of Africa (isn't that a movie?) and got lucky to be one of three teams (dad and Mallory and Brooke and Claire) to catch the first flight out, especially since they have a speed bump. The roadblock was dog sledding which looked like so much fun even if it was on a dirt road. Nice doggy. Onward to the Ice Hotel which was under wraps because I guess it was summer there. I was holding my breath thinking that the speed bump would surely be the undoing of Team Asian since dad isn't the fastest dad in the race, but when they got to the lodge, all they had to do was sit on a chair of ice for 10 minutes which by the looks of son Kevin is no easy feat. Guess his nuts were getting frozen, nothing like nuts on ice. Dad Micheal was doing the first this butt cheek and then the next butt cheek. The next challenge was either sleds or beds, which dud, which one would you do? I'm guessing sleds, which seemed like you could finish faster right? NOT! I've never seen such a sled, it was like for little people or sledding on your knees, but apparently it didn't have brakes which freaked Stephanie out, really? It's not that scary! Three teams failed to do the sled challenge and ended up building tents, which I must say, looked pretty cozy for all that snow. Jill and Thomas opt to use their express pass because for some strange reason they really fell behind. Klutzy team Glee couldn't get their sled on and as a result ended up stepping on the mat last. Well, at least they could sing about it and in tune I might add! Single D

Survivor Nicaragua-Mix it Up

Ha ha Marty and you thought you were going to be king of the senior citizen tribe! HA! Jeff pulls a fast one, when both tribes come together for the challenge to learn that they are mixing it up. I was glad to see that. Marty is once again at the bottom of the food chain. I thought the tribes were a good mix, if only Jimmy J. would have been able to last this long, I would have liked to see how the younger tribe would have related to him. Tyrone sure isn't making any friends on his new tribe by voting against killing the chicken and then eating the most. Psst, people are watching you and drooling. Did ya notice how he was the only one with an entire leg of chicken in his mouth and licking every bone clean while others were eating meager pieces of meat (hey why does he get the biggest piece, he didn't pluck no chicken?). It's no wonder they voted him off, we would have eaten everyone out of house and camp, never mind that he's big and is a strong player. And oh yeah, let's get rid of him over NaOnka, who all of a sudden goes from Beeyach from hell to a sniveling, whining cry baby because she is a little wet, oh boo hoo! That whole thing about this being the second worst thing that has happened to her, the first being her divorce, really? being wet is the second worst thing ever? Really? Stop whining! They shoulda booted her right out, they had their perfect chance without her going all banshee, but instead they vote out the strong food hogger, Tyrone. Well, it's finally getting interesting. And no one can pull the wool over Brenda's eyes, she sees right through Marty!-Single D

Amazing Race-Where is Ghana

This time around it wasn't the challenges were so hard, but it was getting to them that proved daunting for some of the teams, Mallory and dad and Nat and Kat. Nat and Kat seem like a strong team but they always seem to get sidelined and this time by a taxi driver that doesn't know where he is going. The challenges themselves seem pretty easy, except that 1-finding the decipher code proved many teams undoing and 2-the heat seemed unbearable, especially for team Asia. The old man seemed to be suffering a heart attack in the heat. Honorable number one son Kevin proved that he was honorable in deed standing by his dad and gently urging him to complete the challenge, even if he was having a heart attack. Luckily for them, this was a non-elimination round. I so wanted one of the boxers to KO Brook and her bubbliness (hey I hear 7-up is casting). When they had to locate Ghana on a map, I so knew team tats would have a hard time, heavens sake, they didn't know what Stonehenge was! Team Glee stepped on the mat first, I'm surprised they didn't break out in harmony!-Single D

Survivor-Nicaragua

Yes sure enough without coach, the old tribe is going down in flames, because there isn't a single person on that tribe willing to stick their neck out, except for Jimmy T who is constantly whining gimme a chance. I want to know what the heck he's been doing this whole time? He surely flubbed the blind leading the blind challenge when he couldn't listen to Tyrone's direction and after he's like, I couldn't hear what he was saying. Well, Jimmy T you had your chance to shine and you blew it and I guess your big mouth got you a whole lot of nothing when the tribe to their detriment, decides to keep Dan, who is the weakest person on the tribe. And can I say one thing, this whole elder tribe, what a pitiful lot. A bunch of weak whining crybabies. And the women together they haven't a single thought of their own. Sorry sorry sorry. What a way to represent the older generation. Disgusting. So disgusting, I identify more with the younger tribe, even if NaOnka is a bully and Kelly B is not as strong as we think she is. I'll go with the younger anytime. It's embarrassing, couldn't the producers find a better collection of older people. That is not how I think I am, physically strong, smart, street wise and sage wise. Whatever happened to 50's the new 30's?
Next week should be interesting when Jeff mixes up the tribes, but I'm guessing the older ones will be the first to go. -Single D

Amazing Race-Season 17-Next Stop Ghana

Every Sunday I almost forget that Amazing Race is on, like last night, almost missed it, I was upstairs flossing. Hey a girls gotta floss. And who are those bubbly girls (Claire and Brooke) from the shopping channel? Can you say, too perky! After Claire takes a boomerang melon straight in the face (instant replay!), she wallows in a few minutes of self pity but then finally tosses those renegade melons to knock the knight to the ground and declares triumphantly, I made it my bi-ch! (wonder if she can say that on the shopping network). I was sorry to see Ron and Tony leave the show last week going from first place to very last. What happened? I guess they both have no navigational skills, at least they could have asked for directions, they were in London for heavens sake, everyone speaks English! Not very smart for someone who has a doctorate, guess book smarts doesn't translate into street smarts.
My vote for the dumbest team, Nicky and Vicki, she didn't know what Stonehenge was, are you kidding me?? The dullest team, I can barely understand you Asian pop Michael and son Kevin, the most annoying in a neck and neck race between Claire and Brooke is team Glee, yes let's sing our way through Europe, the weakest and slowest teams, mom and daughter and father and daughter. Those two teams are sure to go in the first few episodes, and with that, in last night's episode, mom and daughter are eliminated. Nat and Kat (are they a couple?) looked strong but Kat was disappointing in that sunglasses challenge in Ghana. My vote for the strongest team, Jill and Thomas.
Ghana looked interesting, but hot, dusty and extremely dirty. Put on the bottom of bucket list.-Single D

Survivor Nicaragua-The Stupidest Move So Far!

Who said getting older you get wiser? Apparently not this group of oldies on Survivor. Yeah, let's get rid of the guy who knows how to strategize, who knows how to read people, who knows how to play the game. Never mind that he said he doesn't want the money, (listen up people, he doesn't need it!), never mind that he seems genuinely a nice guy, never mind that in life he's a winner. No let's vote him off because someone feels threaten by him (Marty). Well, this made me so mad I could spit nails! As far as I'm concerned, the oldies should be in diapers, because they are acting like a bunch of big babies. Of course they are going to go down in flames now that they are leaderless. There isn't a whole brain among them. And you would have thought Jill being the strong and I thought smart woman, would have seen through Marty's veil of jealousy. But no, she acted like a stepford wife, yes dear. Hey oldies, pack your bag, you're going home! And don't mess with NaOnka, she takes no pity even if you don't have a leg, gimme that clue!-Single D

And the new Bachelor is!

Brad Womack! No really?? Come on! He jilted two girls at the bachelor altar and now he wants a second chance? We're tired of him and his dull dull personality. The bachelor had better think of better stunts this time around, no fooling the bachelorettes with that old twin switch! Brad Womack, really?? He's not even that cute. He better come back sexier, cuter, funnier, smarter, richer and all that other stuff to win me over. What's a matter, does he need more air time to get himself more nookie? Is he going through his second adolescent? Is he in a mid-life crisis or something. Come on ABC isn't there someone more deserving? We sure would have loved to see Chris as the new bachelor, but I guess his new found celebrity has brought him new found girls to date. Well go Chris, you deserve it!
But Brad Womack, no seriously??-Single D

Survivor Nicaragua-Shoes, Socks, Shannon

I think I'm going to like this season, even tho it's once again, old versus young. And come on, when Jimmy John said he didn't want to win the million, I believed him. He's done everything, I think he just wants to play this game for the fun of it and if the old tribe votes him out then that would be a huge mistake. I think he knows strategy and people dynamic and would be good at analyzing the game. Let's face it he's won 2 Superbowls, so this must be a walk in paradise for him. He called goat girl out (Wendy, who prophetically said her husband said she would be the first one gone-never, ever let the universe hear you say that!) as the weakest link to which I was thinking come on give the girl a chance, but when she opened her mouth at tribal, I was like yeah, get her gone!
Last night's episode, I forgot it was on and when I came downstairs there was some drama about alligator shoes being filled with sand and submerged in water, NaOnka (I don't even know how to pronounce that) stealing socks and wearing them and with Fabio not even able to call her out, because she out yelled him when he looked at her crooked. Yeah he's looking at you NaWonka, whatever your name is, because he's thinking I recognize those socks, yet he's scratching his head as to why are they on your stinking feet? And if Dan's alligator shoes cost 1600.00 then why is he on the show?
I was glad that the older tribe won, which might be the only time they will since they decided to use their edge which gave them one ball over the young tribe, which fortunately they manage to win barely, thanks to Benry who can't sink a ball, someone is bad a basketball!
When loud mouth Shannon tells everyone to get Brenda out because she might have a showmance with Shannon's ally, Chase (is someone jealous there?), Brenda starts stirring everyone against Shannon. At tribal Shannon, like goat girl Wendy, couldn't keep his mouth shut and insulted every homo in New York by saying that Sash was gay being from NY, sealed his fate and was sent home. Don't people know, you go on these reality shows, you must keep your trap shut or get sent packing. Guess not!
I just hope the older tribe gives the younger tribe a run for the money, well, me being biased and all. I wish I could have been on the older tribe, seems like most of them are already half dead. I'd like to show them that 50's the new 30!-Single D

Let's Make a Deal-the Woods

Immortalized on the web-they used to have the 3:14 minute video of me on LMAD, but I guess CBS takes them off after they have aired-poo! At least I have a real picture of myself and Wayne Brady together!

Big Brother Finale-

I don't know why I just don't have the motivation to write anything interesting about Big Brother and who won. Well, by now you know Hayden won, boo! I wanted Enzo to win, but I knew Hayden was going to bring Lane to the finale. Did you see Lane's face when Hayden kept getting all the votes. Shucks Lane, you don't need the money but Hayden does, now maybe he can get a decent hair cut. After the winner was announced I turned off the set and headed to bed. No drama, no excitement to that ending. Bring back the good old days, when we evil Dick went against his own daughter in the finale. Now that was exciting TV. Well, this season once they voted off all the drama quickly became a snooze fest and turned from watching a train wreck to watching snow on the tv screen.-Single D

Bachelor Pad Finale

Didn't you just love the finale? At first I didn't like the fact that whoever won the dancing with the stars challenge would get to pick who they would take to the finale, I mean after all, Jake (as one of the judges) was a little biased with his scoring for Tenley (remember Jake, you dumped her!). Guess he was trying to make it up to her by scoring their dance a 9 as Kiptyn clod hopped his way around the dance floor. I so thought Natalie and Dave would have done better, but Natalie got all stiff when she was supposed to be all sexy and smoldering during her cha cha and in the end, her and Dave just fizzled out on the dance floor. The worst couple was Elizabeth and Kovacs. Totally uncoordinated just like their relationship which by the way, much to Elizabeth's rejectedness, dejectedness, they are no longer a couple, opposite to what Kovacs said in the limo on the way out, that even if he didn't win the money, he found love, Not! I was hoping that Tenley and Kiptyn did the right thing by taking Natalie and Dave to the finale. What a twist that the castoffs would get to vote for the winner, careful who you make enemies with. Gia is no longer with her boyfriend back home, gee go figure and bad boy Wes swoops right in for the catch. What is up with Gia, her insecurity shows just by her posturing and lip licking. Someone tell her to stop fidgeting.
I was glad that Natalie and Dave won, especially after Natalie did that whole, I chose to keep the money charade, people were like OMG she really is selfish, but then showed the sign, SHARE. Good for them, I hope they are able to make it as a couple because they are perfectly matched. Wonder what the Bachelor Pad will do for the next one?-Single D

Big Brother Final Three

So it was the final three with the ousting of Brittany the lone woman survivor in the house. Go Brit! Have you noticed how Lane always talks in exclamation POINTS. Every sentence he speaks ends with an exclamation point. LIKE YEAH! For the final three part challenge it consisted of the three of them sitting on what looked like a tiny circular piece of wood that looked extremely unfriendly to "boy" parts, hanging on a rope and being slammed, drenched and pounded in order to fall off. I kept thinking if Brittany were still there, she would have so aced that challenge. Enzo once again proves that he is the weakest link known to BB and falls off after a mere 19 minutes to go inside and make himself some pizza and pasta. Hey Enzo, a half million could buy you a whole lot of pizza if he would have only stayed up there longer. After a two hour pounding, Lane takes a spill which sends Enzo and Lane to round two, identifying the morphed photos. I always love this challenge, but I was disappointed that it was a little too easy especially since Lane finished it under 45 seconds, and he's not the brightest knife in the drawer. Enzo should have not worn a penguin suit this season, he should have worn a turtle suit, the guy can't move fast to save his BB life. Hours later, ok, it was only about a minute and 1/2 later Enzo finds all the names, leaving his fate in the hands of either Hayden or Lane! If what either of them (Lane! and Hayden) are telling us in the diary room, that they will take each other, then Enzo might as well pack his bags and puff up his chest that he took third in a game in which his greatest contribution was naming the Brigade and it's members. Thank you Meow Meow.
My guess, Lane and Hayden to the final two, narrowing down who wins, probably Hayden, he's been Mr. Cool this whole time. Sorry Lane! Take your exclamation points back home.-Single D

Big Brother Season 12-Brigade to the End

Who knew the three remaining brigade members would last till the very end, Lane, Hayden and Enzo. Have to give it to them, they played it cool till the very end. I wasn't liking Lane trying to turn on Enzo over Brittany. Come on, really? Why is it when Lane speaks everything is in capital letters and exclamation points. REALLY! I so totally want Enzo to win but it doesn't look good for him with the final showdown between Hayden and Lane. Now why would either of those two take each other? That would be disastrous for each one of them, since both of them played a real good game, where Enzo did NOTHING. He's not good anything and he can't win to save his BB life, so taking him to the finals would be the best thing for whoever wins HOH. I'm hoping Lane wins, because he can be easily swayed, shades of Brittany. And when Brittany found out about the Brigade, she went all moral like. Yes, Brittany, you don't have a pig's chance in heck to win now that you are up against the boys and yes, it's a game for heavens sake. Why is it that once you get in the house you lose all sense of the game and think it's the real world? Well, my vote is for Enzo, he can use 1/2 mil for his Jersey family, anybody who works two jobs deserves the money. Hayden and Lane look like they are just skating or in Lanes case golfing through life, so they don't need the cash.
I was so glad Ragan left the house, drama DIVA. I so loved his when his boy toy Matty told him the truth about his lies. Ha ha, not so moral now is he! And not sticking up for Rachel but snaps for her saying that there wasn't any fighting till Ragan showed up. Let's face it, they hate each other, so just stay in opposite ends of the house will ya!-
Go ENZO!-Single D
