OK guys, call of the search dogs. I've just been tired with Thanksgiving, Christmas shopping, sinus infection and everything. It's really to bad that a person can get to tired doing all you have to do for Christmas to really be able to enjoy Christmas. So heres my take on all the shows. i hope I can remember all of them. I'll try to go from Sunday on

Amazing Race. So far I have several favorite teams, brother and sister, father and daughter, grandpa and grandson, goths. Their team strategies seem to work well. The father and daughter are getting along a lot better. There is no official AR message board but if anyone is interested, someone has started one on Survivor message board. It's under general messages and is just Amazing race. There is this person there, I think name is something like JhenJhen or something like that. She is Asian and has a lot of insight as to why the father acts like he does. It's all very cultural. I like the U-turn instead of the yield.

Dancing with the stars. I think the best man won. Marie Osmonds original dance was real strange Monday night. It was almost as if she didn't want to win and took it out of the voters hands. There has been so much speculation about Hulio and Julianne and their relationship. He has broken up with his fiance' and she broke up with her boyfriend. But they say it is just platonic. It's amazing that she is only 19.

The biggest loser. I felt so sorry for 'B' being voted off. He was the last of the red team. I guess Kim won't show up on the show Tuesday night. It is still scary to see how much weight they have lost. Next weeks TV Guide says they have to work in a pizza place next week.

Beauty and the Geek. it ends this week. I only watch it during commercials of other shows. Last week they went to their partners homes to see a glimpse of their personal lives. It really gave them a lot of insight. I don't think that would of worked for them if they had done that earlier in the show. I think these contestants generally care for each other now.

Americas Next top model. My favorite was eliminated last week. She had a form of (sp?) Aspergers and she had to overcome a lot of social problems to go as far as she did. they are also in China

Project runway. Yes, my list is growing. But with the writers strike who knows what I'll be watching. I like listening to Heidi Klum. I like the way she says 'one will be the winner and one will be out'. I like her accent on 'out'. Yeah, I'm a little crazy. I need to get a life. This last week they had to design a mens suit. That was a first. Most of the designer contestants are gay. One of them said he never could understand why anyone would get excited when the female models would practically have to strip down naked to get dressed. But now that he saw all the male models do that, he could understand.

Survivor. Now the national time of mourning begins. james is out. He left with both of the immunity idols, which had practically been given to him, in his hands. He was a threat at first but not with the individual immunities. He didn't know how to apply a light touch to anything. PG is beginning to shine a little more. Denise got a lot of air time, finally. She is nice. She might be one that just squeaks in under the radar and wins the whole thing.

Oh, I almost forgot Trading spaces. They have a new cast and format. There is to many jokes, sexual innuendos and playing around. there is always a contest, like go cart racing between the two carpenters. And the carpenters are really very coccky. Paige Davis is coming back. I will wait and see what she brings back to the format before I totally pass judgement on the show.

Did I miss anything? There are some shows that I don't watch but feel free to bring them to the table here for us all to indulge in.

Hey Doydie
Good to hear from ya. Sorry your feeling so crummy. :( It's terrible that getting through the holidays sucks the life right out of us. Hope you are feeling better today.

I spent Saturday 9:30am-5:30pm, shopping and snacking with my bestest friend. My body is hurting so much, feet and back and my brain has been in bed for several hours. On the bright side, I have most of my shopping done and did not charge anything, cash only. That is such a huge step for me, I'd pat myself on the back if I weren't dog tired.

I too love PR and appreciate the talents it takes to be a designer. I don't have a fav yet, but the season is young.

:hug:


P.S. Sally -did you see who came out of hiding?

I spent most of my day today at our stadium here in town. My son in law is in the Indiana National Guard and they are getting ready to go for their second tour in Iraq. So today was our cities big send off for them. Although it was for a very worthy cause, i spent almost 4 hours sitting in very uncomfortable stadium seating listening to all the beaurocrats giving their speeches. The one I hated the most was the guy who told all about one his times in which he had gone into the PX with two of his buddies and the place was blown up and his buddie was killed. Did we need to hear that!!!!!!!!!! Most of the group had already gone through one tour and all had gotten back safely but there was about one third of the group that was new. I really felt sorry for them and their families. Plus that four hours that all we could do was to look at the back of our soldiers head, we could have been enjoying their compnay for a little more time before they left. Their offical time to leave is Jan 2. OK, I'll get off my soap box now. Oh, my son in law was one fo the three that went before that got injured and got a Purple heart. Do you think the army could et it to him after 18 months? No!!!!

One of my shows ended tonight. Actually it was the one I was watching during commercials only. Of the two couples remaining on Beauty and the Geek, my favorite won. Can't remember their names but I thought that they grew the most. It was interesting when the host was interviewing all the couples tonight. Some of the guys are dating, one of the girls is going to college and another going for her Realtors licence. One of the guys even did his own makeover and looked good. I know the winning money was $250,000 but they had to split it!!!!! That's why I would only want my husband to go on Wheel of Fortune with me. I wouldn't want to split my winnings with anyone.!

Amazing Race. Karma comes back to hit you in the face. After they used the U-turn, the blondes got eliminated. But that is all part of the game and perfectly allowable. I'm liking Ron and Christina better every week.

Biggest Loser. It's sad every week to see another contestant go home. Nicole did an amzing job at the campus and continued it at home. She will be quite a force to be recond with for the eliminated players prize. of course they all done very well. But she really looked hot

Uh Oh... tried to delete this post....didnt work...:p

DM 12-05-2007 08:27 AM

I think I love you Doydie! I am a Reality Show fan too! Did you watch last nights Biggest Loser? I was hoping Isabeau would go, I don't care for her.

I was disappointed in the Bachelor, loved DWTS's and am totally loving Helio. Aren't they a cute together? I am also a Survivor junkie. James was so dumb not to play the Idol. I'm not sure who I want to win, but I kind of like Eric.

I try to catch Project Runway once in a while too.
I love Little People, Big World and Gene Simmons~ Family Jewels. Are those Reality Shows?? Oh and what about The Kardashian;s *love Bruce Jenner on that one) Keep me posted...

doydie 12-14-2007 12:53 AM

Let's get this thread revived for the week. I'll try to remember what shows are on what night.

Sunday. Amazing Race. Just goes to show you what happens if you don't check to make sure the ticket agent gives you what seat you actually asked for. My favorite team was eliminated cause they got business class instead of tourist. So now I''ll be rooting for Ron and Christina.

Tuesday. The Biggest loser. I felt so bad for Neil. He lost 10 pounds and it wasn't enough to keep him in the game. He was the last team member of the blue team and the black team voted him off. The black team was the one left over after the trainers took their pick and they were left standing in the desert and thinking they were going home. Jillian must be a good trainer. I don't know how one person can lose 143 pounds in 3 1/2 months. So next Tuesday is the final.

Wednesday. Americas next top model. Final episdoe. I'm glad Serissha (sp?) won. I thought Chantel had a verey cocky attitude about her ability to win it all.

New show - Crowned: the mother of all pageants. Take mother and daughter teams from around the country, glam them up and pit them against each other. The only thing that is worst than a womans vanity is a Mom's vanity for herself or her daughter. The really beautiful women really got a lesson when the judges gave high remarks to the not so glamorous teams for their sincerity

Project Runway. Episode this weeek, don't use the size 0 models. Use women who have lost a lot of weight and remake their clothes into something that they will want to wear and flatter their new figure. One poor guy (the losing contestant) had to use a huge wedding dress and make into an outfit. One of the guys got some kind of infection on his face and had to leave so they brought back the guy they eliminate last week.

Thursday SURVIVOR!!!!!!!! Down to the final four. Poor PG. Another show that had only one team mate left and got voted off. I thought Amanda was going to vote Todd off and let PG stay in but team colors won out. Denise sure made an enemy out of PG though. She has won the last two reward challenges and got some pretty nice rewards that she would share with 2 other teammates and she didn't pick PG even though PG picked her for one. So if Denise gets to the final 3, PG sure won't vote for her. I'm sure Amanda and Todd are smart enough though to take Courtney to the final three because they think Courney won't get any votes from the jury.

Whew!!!! Did I get them all? I know there are quite a few more reality shows out there but I don't watch. Tell me what's going on. I know that Survivor, Biggest loser and Amazing race are almost over and there are new shows going up.

Thanks for the up-date, Doydie.:)

I only watch AR, BL & SC....I missed AR, Sunday, are the Father/Daughter still in the race? BL was sad, but someone had to go, I guess. I was glad to see PG go, in SC.....I hope Denise wins..:)

Onward and Upward..LOL:D

doydie 12-15-2007 12:52 AM

Sally, the father daughter are still in. Infact they were in first place last week. They are now my favorite team. You know that AR won't be on this Sunday because of the 3 hour show of Survivor.

doydie 12-18-2007 01:27 AM

Wow, Todd won. i wasn't expecting that I thought that of the final three that were left that Amanda would win. But he knew exactly how to play the jury. And Amanda only got one vote. i just wish PG had been in the final 3.

At first I was very pleased what the show did for Denise in giving her $50,000 thinking that she had lsot her job. But the official website for the school corporation issued a statement today that last year she had applied for and had been acceped a position on janitor and an increase in pay. So she was not demoted.

And I am very glad that James got the Sprint fan favorite $100,000.
