anyone else wince every time john gave sheldon a nice attaboy pat on his injured back

yeah after i said that i began rewatching the texas season and really had to eat my words once i got to heather bullying beverly

i forgot about that nightmare, there were definitely some brutal contestants but they all seemed less catty? this season of masterchef professionals a college lecturer won and he just seemed like the nicest human ever, so it was a real joy to watch him win. watching katsuji's manufactured drama gives me heartburn.

whoah what?

the judges always wax poetic about being able to taste when a dish is cooked with love, how katsugi's food doesnt taste like a bilious slurry of frustrated aggro rage is beyond me

at the same time, when he was grilling her prior as to what kind of guy mike lata was, she did cop to having gotten fired and cited her attitude problem as the reason, and at that time she wasn't making excuses. i was on pins and needles because i saw brooke potentially being sent home, and i hate those kinds of team…

he truly is a gentleman chef

i loved it but as always am frustrated by the fact that it is yet another brit marling vehicle that ends where i'm hungriest for the story to begin

i did an MFA, and while everyone knows MFA's are jokes, that writing would gets lacerated for how purple and adjectivey it is

last week the reviewer mentioned allison's tendency to view herself as frumpier in her perspective, and she is consistently more glammed up in everyone else's version. when she was tone-deafedly chastising noah for taking responsibility for his actions (like getting mad he went to prison to protect two women for…

seriously, we need content now more than ever. i literally have nothing left and have moved onto treasure hunter reality tv

this ep was v triggering re: noah and allisons shitty relationship

last season or a couple seasons ago it was the super aggro dude from portland who just turned into a junkyard dog around women chefs who spoke, this season its Mr Meat Failure who just looks like if he wasnt giving himself a semi over humble ingredients (like 150 dollars worth of Meat to Fail), he'd be running a…

Cool, thank you, I'll check it out! Bajirao Mastani sounds so sad based on your description, you're right, the issue is not with Priyanka, but rather the show's writing. Every character was written so uniformly (are they honest? or deceptive? everyone has a secret!) and from that I cant help but roll my eyes at the…

I wish they would have shown maybe more acappella singing so we could actually judge this god-given gift for ourselves, in lieu of that, I guess I can say Star's ability to put compression and distortion on her singing voice during an unplugged performance is pretty impressive

even though Priyanka Chopra is objectively stunning, that was my issue with Quantico, every character had to talk about her rep as a heartbreaker, and what a hell of a good FBI agent she was

i think him meeting aethelstan's son will be emotional as heck

and judging by all those kids u know theres a place where Gisla doesnt object to Rollo's wild viking soul (the boudoir ;) )

rollo seeing the viking ships and internally thrilling at the sight was this ep's highlight for me, whenever the northmen go to france I'm always so desperate for the writers to tap into all the sugary elements of a family reunion, rollo's homesickness, etc. I wanted to see more emotions processed between Bjorn and…

I was half expecting his voice to join her in song, and that it stirred memories of his beloved Aethelstan…. glad it didnt go there, but….
