I've caught up on quite a bit so in no particular order...here's my recap from stuff so far. If YOU aren't caught up stop reading!
SHARK TANK
This show gets a mention cuz J thought it sounded cool and turned out it was. It's mildly entertaining to watch 6 bajillionaires make even more $$$ by investing in other people's great ideas. The ideas themselves are sometimes cool, sometimes sketchy and sometimes creepy (peeing into a faux golf club?) but the real entertainment comes in watching these guys (and one lady for quota sake) try to outmaneuver each other and outwit people who are less wealthy than they are. This show is a true testament that the US will never truly give up on capitalism!
DWTS
Again, if you don't know...you don't know. I resisted this show until last season cuz I just couldn't get down with any of the "Stars" they have on there. But sometimes I just gotta watch people dance! If you can sit through the painfully awkward (Denise Richards, anyone???) it's actually kind of entertaining. Although, it's a lot of TV...like 3 hours a week! Thank God for DVRs and fast forwarding. First of all, I wish Samantha Harris was not on this show, ever! I always ff through her awkward banter and this week her hair just took over-ugh, she's my least favorite thing about the show. This week's dances, however, were so much better than last week and Len actually seemed like he was in a good mood, almost everyone got 8's! Sometimes it's just all about the dances too and the Paso and Tango are just better than the stupid country two-step on these shows! Biggest improvement had to be Aaron Carter, who I don't really like but who did a great job and Michael Irvin. My YAWN DANCES are Melissa Joan Hart (too many names anyway!) and Donny Osmond (who the judges love, unfortunately). My favorite is Mya who can do no wrong, especially with Dmitri as her partner. Even Joanna Krupa was entertaining with her stumble and switching partners. In the end...Natalee went home breaking the streak of Olympiad winners. It was time...she peaked early and then fell apart! The results show I only watch for about a total of 15 minutes but the MJ tribute was pretty good and I really like the dancers who did the routine for Norah Jones' first song. Bruno gets quoted for the byte of the week, the show is "Sublime and ridiculous at the same time."
Heading out to take in a local theatre company's play...something cultural! I'll be back to blog about it and the rest of the shows tomorrow.
