I'm waiting for Hell's Kitchen Junior.

The problem with cooking shows on TV is that you can't taste what the contestants cook, right? And the problem with a cooking-competition reality show is that the judging is subjective. Masterchef's solution is to have all these pressure tests involve making desserts so it's always clear who the best and worst…

Wow. Interesting.

We're celebrating my dad's birthday on Saturday. Does anyone know where I can get the most amazing steak?

Carrie is seen as dated now? The look of it and the costumes certainly are from another era, but the story itself seems timeless to me.

I thought the actor who played Jesus made some interesting choices.

I find Wipeout to be the perfect summer ridiculousness.

That was the most amazing comment.

My MVP vote goes to: Scooby Doo Foghorn Sound Effect, for adding great amusement to the interminable scenes of Titanic-dinner-serving failure.

I did not, but those cheap headphones brought back memories that same way Carrie twisting the phone cord around her finger did last week. This show seems to get 1980s technology*, but the wardrobe department isn't nearly as consistent.

Larissa thinks Carrie is out of college and working a real job in New York. It's ridiculous and I hate it and I was hoping the porn star/performance artist was going to be the one to point it out to everyone.

Also agree. I usually watch via Wi-Fi through a Wii which is only 480p output yet somehow looks fine except for dark shows. For something like Vampire Diaries, I hook up my laptop (HDMI) and don't have any buffering issues. I have Netflix set to Best quality and have a 12Mbps Uverse connection.
