I've got a really bad headache tonight but I'll try to remember all my thoughts on my reality shows for the past week.

Monday - Beauty and the Geek. I'm getting a little tired of the show. I think it may be geared for people a little less than my 57 years but I'll stay with it. It was really funny watching those geeks try to read a pattern and sew. I felt sorry for the guy that was such a comic book geek, he's the one with the ears that need to be pegged. He was so into going to the comic book convention and his beauty could have cared less and she created a terrible super hero for herself which he had to make an outfit for. Sam, the 'beauty' which is also an actor is kind of getting into the hang of the show.

Dancing with the Stars - So sorry to see Marie Osmond faint dead away. We are so used to seeing taped shows it is strange to see an actual live show and see a medical emergency. I was glad that Mark Cuban or whatever his name is get eliminated. I am afraid that my own favorite, Jane Seymour may be leaving soon. I don't really expect her to win it but I just enjoy watching her dance. Maybe they would let her be on the show and perform after she is eliminated!

Tuesday - Biggest Loser. I really don't remember who left. Oh, now I do. The guy that gained 17 pounds was left on and a serious competitor was eliminated. But the twist now is that members of the other teams do the voting now. So of course they would leave someone that deliberately gained weight.

Wednesday - America next top model. Ebony, she was so determined at the first and just kind of got homesick. Tyra was going to send someone else home but Ebony spoke up and said she wanted to go home. So the other girl got a free pass.

Thursday - Survivor. This is my favorite!!!!!!!! I think the right person went home tonight but there could have been several 'right' people. Sherea was lazy around camp and a little to outspoken. But they are really tearing her in the message board. I think this my be what has gotten my blood pressure up (my headache). I don't agree with her actions regarding her work ethic (I'll be lazy around camp so I can be strong in challenges) or her attire but they are saying this is all because she is black. And boy are they dissing her. I am not black but I won't stand for someone being treated like that. If she was lazy, it was becasue she was who she was, not because she was black. But James is going to sleep tonight with a huge smile on his face. The other team kidnapped him, gave him the hidden immunity idol so that he could throw the challenge and use it on himself and vote off Jaime. But his team won anyway and he didn't need it! So he has one of the HII!!! Next week is the merge.

Amazing Race starts Nov 4th. The teams are listed on the website but that's all.

reality shows
 
I agree with you Doydie. I watch Survivor and it is not the color you are but who you are and what you do. If more people felt like this it would be a better world. I still would not want to have been in that position to eat the food that they had to. I was actually gagging myself watching it. I have watched this show since it first started and it is great. Can't wait to start watching The Amazing Race that is another great show. Have a good day. Hope your headache is better. Joyce

I did pretty well this week. I watched DWTS and Survivor..:)

I was so shocked when Marie fainted....she is so hyper.:eek: . She is one of my favorite dancers (for her age) and Jayne is my #1 favorite too. I just love her.

I don't quite have a handle on everyone on Survivor, but I do like the show and the challenges and stuff. I couldn't watch the weird food eating thing....BARF!!!!

I can't keep up with you, Doydie, that's for sure.:D

I am not watching DWTS this season. I had family issues when it started and just didn't know most of them. Except for Jane and Marie. I hope Marie wins. I love her enthusiasm. Bummer about the fainting, but if she's doing Nutrasystems to lose weight and burning all those calories practicing, I can see how she could faint.

I love Survivor and would have like to see JR voted off. At least, Sherea was good in the challenges. The contrast in work ethic between James and Sherea is proof that it is not a race issue. IMHO

I cannot wait for Amazing Race on 11/4. Project Runway starts 11/14, I believe. Two shows that I can enjoy start to finish.

doydie 10-26-2007 11:52 PM

Oh no, Project Runway! My husband will kill me if I start another show. Well maybe one of the other ones will almost be over. and my headache is much better. I think it just really made me so mad what they were saying about some of the racial things but yet nothing is said about James also being black. It's like they bring it up if something is wrong with the person but not if they are great. Just doens't work for me. I got lots of threads addressed to me from the website, read them all but let it slide.

Well heres my reality shwos for the last week

ANTM was a recap of the season so far
B&G recap of the season so far

DWTS guess that was the shocker for the week. America favorite voted off. Sabrina, I think she is part of the Cheeta Girls music group, lots of dance experience but not ballroom. Some people on the message board say they had problems with their phone in vote. Some say the show was preempted by a ball game and didn't know the numbers. Others say she showed so much potential in the first weeks that she didn't show enough improvememnt. Others say her fans thought they didn't have anything to worry about and just didn't vote. I don't know, I have never voted. I just like watching the show. And I especially enjoy watcing Jayne Semour. She had food poisening and wasn't there for the results show.
Survivor, my favorite Jamie got the boot. What goes around comes around. I hope she remembers that for a long time and teaches her children that. 2 weeks ago she intentionally threw a challenge so her team could lose and go to TC. Last night she found what she thought was the HHI. Reason why she thought it was that was because she took James' bag and went through it and found his. So she so proudly shows it during TC and Jeff threw it in the fire, just like she threw the playing piece on the ground when she threw the challenge. Then she was voted off. She is the first member of the jury which means we will have a final 3 again.

There is another reality show on Fox something about a search for the next great American band.

I can't figure out what ANTM is, please help.

I'm looking forward to the Amazing Race, it starts Sunday 11/4. Woo Hoo!

Curious 11-03-2007 11:07 AM

antm...tyra banks show...america's next top model. :)

doydie 11-03-2007 11:38 PM

I completely forgot about The biggest loser!!!!1 How could I do that when that guy, can't remember his name, purposely did a water gain of 17 pounds last week!!!!! Anyway, he lsot 33 pounds this week. Wonder how he did that! If they still had the same voting system, his team mates would have got him out real quick. But now the other teams votes off for your team. So of course they leave him on cause they know he's no threat. So they voted the cowboy home. But just like all the others, he continued to lose weight at home. Good job cowboy! This coming week the show joins many of the other shows by going green, recycle and excersize using no electricity.

doydie 11-04-2007 11:35 PM

amazing race started tonight. I had to wait an extra half hour cause the NFL game lasted to long. And my Colts lost. They went to Ireland. That is one of the places on my list that I want to see. Well any of Europe is. There are some pretty interesting people on this year. Of course I like the ones that are on to deepen their relationships like the father and daughter and the Grandpa and grandson. Felt so sorry for the last two teams. You can be way ahead in the race and then you get stuck with a mule that will not budge and it puts you in last place. I loved the challenge where they rode the bike over the gorge with their teammate hanging on at the bottom of the bike.
