So You Think You Can Dance

At this point, everyone I didn't care for is gone, and everyone left, I LOVE.

Well, almost. Love Heidi, Love Dimitri, but both their partners are falling off my radar. Love Natalie and Musa but I didn't think they were that good last night.

However my three favorites teams were GREAT last night... heres a look:

Donyelle and Benji


Martha and Travis


Allison and Ivan


Oh how I love this show... and to think I wasn't planning on watching this when summer started.

Summer Reality - Rock Star: Supernova, Canadian Idol Top 10 Results, Big Brother: All Stars

Where IS Supernova going? From any indication last night, the three members seemed to be looking for completely different things in the rockers. The good news is that they all seemed to favour my new fav Toby Rand and his Aussie voice.

My top four are now Toby, Josh, Lukas and Dilana though Jenny from Vancouver isn't bad either.

On Canadian Idol... hmm... who cares... So far no one really stands out and in fact, most are annoying me this year. Maybe it's because they all seem too young thing year (only three are in their 20's and everyone else is still in the teens). In fact, I can't believe Kati Durst and Steffi D made it. They are HORRIBLE. and Yes, Steffi D is apparently in her teens, despite the fact she looks 43. At this point, my money is on Chad Doucette to make top 3. He sings fine and he's cute. I know, usually that won't just do but it seems like a weak year to me. I would give it to Ashley Coulter (Allyssa Milano's CDN double) but she doesn't seem to know what her strengths are.

Meanwhile, over in the Big Brother: All Star house, let the games begin! First of all, Jase. Not so annoying this year... in fact... kinda amusing. Chicken George? Not so annoying this year by being annoying to all the houseguest and sort of throwing the whole alliances and manipulation off by being sort of clueless in the house (or is that his game?). Meanwhile, yeah Janelle again for winning HOH AND VETO! LOVE YOU! I mean, it'll create an even bigger target on your back but then again, you already had the biggest one going into the game (by being the most popular).

Love that both Marcellas and Erika hold grudges to Danielle and Allison respectively. IT WAS A GAME. IT WAS YEARS AGO... Still... ads to the drama and maybe they can self destruct themselves to leave Team Six intact (LOVE you James, Howie, Kaysar and of course. JANELLE!)

So, I'll kinda be sad if Danielle leaves tomorrow since she WAS the best player not to have won (seriously, she never actually took a side... she throws out a situation and sits back... too bad this time Allison sold you out), but Allison sure makes for good drama as the biggest (female) liar ever to live in the house (Will gets the male honour).

Meanwhile, NBC will be airing Project Runway for the next two Mondays! Bring on sweet Tim Gunn! Biting Nina Garcia and the ever-bitchy Michael Kors!

Another Gratuitous Post

So I was about to write something about James Marsden perfecting the third wheel role in the Love Triangle in movie roles (The Notebook, Superman Returns, all The X-Men movies) when this came out.



Our favorite Much Music VJ/CBC Newsworld host George Stroumboulopoulos is going to be hosting ABC's The ONE (the new American Idol meets Big Brother reality show). I'm kinda shocked.

Reality Overload: Big Brother 7: All Stars, So You Think You Can Dance, Rock Star: Supernova, Canadian Idol, enough summer reality tv for ya?

So the leaks on the net were completely accurate and the 14 Big Brother 7 (not 12 as they officially said) houseguests entered the house earlier this week. Yey Janelle, Kaysar, James and Howie from Season 6 made it. Boo Mike Boogie and Jase did too. Now everybody wants Season 6 people out but Janelle and Jase won first HOH and now Allison and Danielle are up on the block. Should be a fun trashy summer!

Have I noted how much I'm loving So You Think You Can Dance? How fun and how hot and how gay is that show? Still loving my early picks Travis and Martha (see pic above). But also loving Allison and Ivan (even though he looks like he can be broken in half by just touching him, let alone dancing a wicked Hip Hop), and of course Dimitri. Heidi looks like she can be the most annoying girl ever and in theory I would despise her and yet I also feel that she and I would be best friends if we met. So I'm not sure yet... but she's kinda fun to watch in a southern cheerleader gone dirty dancing kinda way.



On Rock Star: Supernova, the Toronto candidate Lukas Rossi has yet again stood right out off the bat, as JD Fortune did last year. Yey Canada! I messed up the recording though so only caught the last third of the show and then had to rely on the recaps. Man the recaps can be decieving though since the boys sounded better than the girls but then found out it was really vice versa, which was proven today in the results show when they showed longer recaps.

Anyhoo. I also finally watched the finale for American Idol... yes. it's irrelevant at this point but what a madcap weird show THAT was... Prince? Mary J. Blige? Toni Braxton? Dionne Warwick? Meatloaf? Live? Though Elliott Yamin and Mary J. were TIGHT... The whole show was kinda ridiculous in a train wreck entertainment sort of way.

Oh, and Canadian Idol? No favorites this year yet... In a way a better sounding group yet none really seem to have any star power... not that excited about it this year...so far.

Okay. here's an extra clip from last week's So You Think You Can Dance... man I really do love this show... probably why I've gotten all excited to see A Chorus Line that starts in SFO this month and moves to Broadway come fall.

The Emmy's Are Officially Dead to Me

Ausiello said it best: OMG It's an Emmy Catastrophe!

The rage has begun online and while there is now one more category that I find mostly good (Best Guest Actor in a Drama), it is interesting to note that the nominees for Best Casting and Best Writing are the same series everyone THOUGHT and WANTS in the Best Drama and Best Comedy... so why the difference? What went wrong?

I mean. even STACKED was nominated yet Gilmore Girls, Veronica Mars, Everwood are left in the dust? ARE YOU FREAKING KIDDING ME?

Who wants to go camping on August 27/28 weekend?

The 58th Emmy Nominations - The new voting system STILL doesn't work

WHAT THE HELL?

This new Voting system they kept touting was supposed to usher in a whole new era in nominees but I guess I was just too naive to realise it was all just a ploy.

In the end, Things are looking even worse than before. So much for the "new Lauren Graham voting system".

Still No WB or UPN show, Still No Lauren Graham, No Tichina Arnold, Veronica Mars and Kristen Bell, T.R. Knight from Grey's Anatomy. Not even Hugh Laurie for House, Entourage, or anything from Lost. WHAT?

and Kevin James from King of Queens, Two and a Half Men, and Will and Grace still get nods? Freakin Tony Shalhoub for Monk AGAIN? That is still on?

I don't even know where to start and I'm sure this post will keep changing and updating but basically, this years Emmy Nominations SUCK.

If there was any new nominations, they were for old nominees in new projects (Stockard Channing for Out of Practice, which even while I liked, still was far deserving for Emmy status, Lisa Kudrow for The Comeback, Julia Louis-Dreyfus for The New Adventures of Old Christine which was one of the few personal picks that actually came to fruition).

I'm actually happy that Christopher Meloni finally got one for Law and Order: SVU but to snub Hugh Laurie? House was not at its best this season and I don't think belongs on the Best Drama list but how can the best thing on that show not be nominated?

My theory stolen from a few other people's theory? While there was the second round of voting from a "blue ribbon panel", it required people to show up to vote, and who has time to do that? the senior citizen emmy voters, the same voters who tend to vote for the same few bunch year after year. Plus since only single episodes were screened, shows like Lost which cater to long series long storylines and only are understood under a longer than one-episode arc probably lose out.

The few highlights, and this year, there are very few, Jean Smart and Gregory Itzin for 24, Jaime Pressly for My Name is Earl (though that show should have gotten more nods), and Elizabeth Perkins for Weeds (another show that should have gotten more nods) and Chandra Wilson and Sandra Oh for Grey's Anatomy. Will Arnet for Arrested Development, and Jeremy Piven for Entourage, Steve Carell for The Office. hmm.... and that's about it. I have entire categories that I'm unhappy with and the only category where I think all 5 nominees are actually deserving is sadly the Best Reality Competition catgory.

Man... this list must be a joke right? That's the only way to explain it's general suckiness right?

Everybody's Watching "Nobody's Watching"

Alright, I'm back from almost two weeks of travels, weddings and more travels and now I'm back home totally sick. So what better reason to plunk on the couch to rest and watch more TV!? (Sadly, I'm still catching up from May Sweeps... by the way? What kinda ending was THAT to Prison Break? I totally want to know what happens yet I somehow don't care all at the same time).

Anyways, apparently since I've been gone, I've missed the whole Star vs The View soap opera bitchfest (damn... now we won't ever get that Rosie vs Star showdown I was so looking forward to this fall).

Also, "Nobody's Watching" was emailed to me 2 weeks ago and I never had the time to watch, but since, has become an internet phenom. What is it? a Failed pilot about... well... a comedy about a reality show about a couple of tv freaks who are given then opprotunity to create a sitcom. Confused? The self references and irony doesn't end there considering it was dropped from The WB Sched back in 2005 but now looks like a hit on the net and may get picked up by NBC or ABC. Let's hope it does since the show is from Scrubs creator and has a great role for Paul Adelstein (who lost the Burke role on Grey's Anatomy but then got his minor role on Prison Break) and pretty funny stuff. Not the legendary status it seems to have culminated within a month but still, a pretty interesting sitcom.
