I'm all alone in TV reality land

Both of my cohorts are off gallivanting the greater United States and have left me here all alone in TV reality land...it's a good thing I have my shows.

Let's talk LCS:  Last night's episode...send the comedians to the Play Boy Mansion...if anyone watches the "girls next door" on E you are already familiar with Hef's 3 girls...not the brightest, shall we say.  Anyhow, they were to listen to each comedian tell them a bedtime nursery story...that was supposed to be funny.  Hmmm...not really so funny.  Marcus (the man of voices) won, not surprising...and he should have.  I think that was a hard competition...kind of stupid really!  So Marcus get immunity and has a direct flight to Vegas for the finale...shocker: the rest of the comedians will be performing and America will vote on who else goes to the finale.  Finally, America can show the producers who truly are the funny ones on the show.  The 7 perform and let's just say that I have my favs...#1 Jeff Dye, I think he is hilarious and I love his delivery.  I tend to enjoy the comics who bring up stuff from childhood....ie Mario Brothers (the original and best game ever).  #2 Iliza---last night was not her best performance but still pretty funny and hopefully America will take into account her previous 2 weeks of hilarious material.  A far #3 Louis Ramey...he was pretty funny last night, borderline inappropriate but funny.  Then the rest I don't really care:  The Canadian (Sean Cullen) was actually clean last night and fairly humorous...farmer song was good (reminded me a little too much of Jack Black).   Ron G had some funny jokes, but he bugs me a bit.  My bottom 2 are definitely Jim Tavare and Adam Hunter.  Jim is boring to me and Adam went WAY over the line.  Not my style of jokes at all!  I am thinking that 6 go to the finales so hopefully those 2 will not!

Shear Genius: I'm telling you, it you have Bravo....set your DVR.  It is so hilarious to see these h
air stylists totally makeover someone's hair and then the judges rip them apart...gotta make the person with the new haircut feel REAL good!  



And I finally caught up on Project Runway (also a must watch).  The first episode they had to buy their "materials" at a Grocery store...most went for the table cloths of course...which was to
o easy...but there were some pretty cool outfits...the winner made her dress out of vacuum bags that she bleached and stained and the bodice was made out of coffee filters...my fav was that she made the back closure out of hook and eyes...otherwise known as the wire from a spiral notebook...it was cool.  





Episode 2, their models got to do the shopping for "green" fabric and then the designers made them cocktail dresses....very interesting.  You'd think that after all the fabulous clothing these models wear they would have some taste in fabric and color...but not so much!  The winner's dress was cool...not so much cocktail dress in my opinion, but cool!


Okay...the designers:  our UT guy is still in and does fine work.  There is a guy from Seattle that is "tanned" out...guess he has figured out to get his Vitamin D while living in the beautiful NW.  He also will be the annoying and crazy one for the season...he is trying way to hard to use one term and coin it as his own...like the winner last year using "fierce" all the time.  It's a bit obvious. 

 
My fav is the blond girl (Kelli), she won the first challenge and the dark haired girl (Kenley) who should have won the second....

Let me know if any of you are watching these shows...
