I mostly agree. But it’s Jennifer Warnes. So—I get to listen to Jennifer Warnes. Tough call on that one.

Yeah, Dirty Dancing is one of those movies people get so sentimental about that they forget it’s actually, you know, dirty. So everybody wants to watch it with their kids and have a network TV remake and they don’t stop to consider the details.

Well, it did remind me to watch the original again...and again...and again.

I loved it too! His snark combined so well with that format. I wish it had run longer.

Trading Spaces is just decoration, but it’s the kind of dangerously cheap and haphazard decoration that ends up requiring actual renovation in order to fix/undo the damage. (Also, This Old House does decoration, as well as renovation! The renovation is definitely the focus, but they always spend time talking about…

I had a friend who was on the show.

True Story: My parent’s friends were on this show and they ended up with a PIRATE SHIP in their living room. They had to spend so much money redecorating.

F-ing DOUG! Man I hated that guy
