Fainting With The Stars

I'll get right to it. Marie Osmond passed out on live TV tonight. There she was, after performing a pretty good samba, waiting for her scores and all of a sudden...she's on the floor. They immediately cut to commercial and I was stunned. I've passed out numerous times and know how scary, and then humiliating, it can be. I was thrilled to see that she was completely fine when they came back from the break. I thought the judges could've given her better scores though. She even apologized - no need for that girl, we're just glad you're alright!

While I've never passed out on live television, I did faint in front of an entire restaurant (The Redeye Grill here in NY) - and had to be wheeled out on a stretcher by some very gorgeous firefighters. Talk about mortifying. But back to Dancing With The Stars, I think Mark Cuban should FINALLY get the boot this week. But who knows.

My favorite dance of the night? Cameron Matheson and Edyta - HOT HOT HOT. And I think Sabrina and Mark have a little rumba going on in private, if you know what I mean.

Tomorrow, prego J-Lo will be performing for the results show. I'm sure there'll be plenty of "bump" jokes to go 'round...and, hopefully, no passing out.

Too Much TV

If you read my NY Ranger blog, you'll see why I haven't been typing. The other reason is because my computer suffered a slow and painful death; leaving me unable to access the web. But thanks to a new computer, I'm now back online.

Due to my annoying medical luck, I've been watching way too much TV lately. I'm actually getting sick of it. Who knew I'd ever say that. Now that I'm better I think I'll be cutting back - except during my twilight insomnia hours.

I'm sure I could go on and on about different shows I've been watching, but for right now I want to talk about how annoying last night's Survivor was. It started out rather interesting - each tribe got to "kidnap" two players from the opposing tribe. But then things got aggravating. First of all, did anyone else want to tell Jaime to stop sucking in water from that disgusting lake? She and virgin-boy Erik were getting their flirt on and Jaime kept smiling as she dropped her toothy grin in the water. Then she kept spitting it out all over the place. GROSS. Just keep your head above the damn water!! Later on, she and her nitwit cohort, Peih-Gee, decided to throw the challange so they could oust one of their new "kidnapped" tribe members. Their rationale? They wanted to keep as many of their original tribe members in play berfore the tribes merge. BUT, she's assuming she knows exactly when that's going to happen. Why not keep your two new, and quite strong, players in for as long as possible? I really hope this bites them both in the ass. Plus, if you're going to throw a challange, don't be so damn obvious about it.

Another random thought about Survivor. It never ceases to amaze me that, for as long as this show's been on, NOBODY ever knows how to start a fire. You'd think you'd try to get this skill down before getting to the island. Yet, time and time again, people have to wait until after the first tribal council to get it. Sheesh. As for me, I'd rather go on Big Brother.
