TV Updates

Dancing with the Stars
I’m having trouble getting behind any of the contestants this season. It was quite disappointing to see that Julianne was paired with that creep Adam Carolla. He just doesn’t seem to be taking it seriously enough for them to improve. They’ll be gone sooner rather than later I expect. Kristi and Mark are by far the best this year but she seems a bit dead in the face to me. I hope she can kick it into another gear.

American Idol
If David Cook would shave more often, I would get behind him 100%. His style of music is right up my alley. I have really enjoyed his performances. I really like Carly as well. I was so worried that week she was in the bottom. And I don’t care what clothes she’s wearing, Simon. I have absolutely no use for Kristy Lee. She should’ve been out of there a while ago. I think the most impressive this week was Michael Johns. His performance was spot-on and he’s just so hot.

Survivor
Can you say boring? Is anyone still watching this show? Does anyone still care? I’m just tuning in for Jeff at this point.

Deal or No Deal
After all the excitement with the Million Dollar Mission, things have quieted down over Howie’s way. This week a contestant was offered a family vacation but was required to say goodbye to one family member each time she said No Deal. Good thing she had some in-laws and a niece to choose. I love it when people go a long way into the game but if I were giving advice, I’d say as soon as the offer get close to a quarter million, take it and run.

Ace of Cakes
My new favorite DVR recording is FoodTV’s cake meisters at Charm City Cakes. Mary Alice is too cool to be real and the other employees in the bakery are characters right out of your favorite funny novel. Geof has to be my fave though for his understated style and amazing aptitude in creating architectural masterpieces out of sugary foodstuff.
