(Image via ABC) We’re finally at the point where the contestants have to deal with two dances and we met the return of the Instant Dance. The Instant Dance is themed to Jive this year, so I’m convinced they are trying to get someone to fall from not knowing choreography. Will anyone rise to the [...]

The auditions on America’s Got Talent continued to hobble along last night, this time in New York City, where the freaks were out in full force. Just imagine how paranoid Howie must have really been paranoid about germs, as he emerged from a zorb. That was one of the highlights of an otherwise mediocre evening… [...]

Following a shocking non-elimination last week, the pressure increased for the 20 remaining contestants last night. Along with Nigel Lythgoe and Mary Murphy, Debbie Reynolds sat in on the So You Think You Can Dance panel. Unfortunately, she thought everything was amazing and wanted to bring all the dancers to her home for some unknown [...]

America’s Got Talent remained Atlanta for night two of auditions yesterday, as the features of the best and some of the oddest of performers.

Sorry for the delays in all these links. It’s busy season… This week, the celebrities got to pick their own music so even the non-actors had the ability to channel their emotions. It probably gave the non-actor/musicians a small opportunity to match the level of the celebrities with the natural ability to emote. Interestingly, most [...]

After a recap show that showed what felt like four hours of footage could have been squished into one hour, the elimination episode began. I’ll admit that DANCING WITH THE STARS continues to have the same exact format for eliminations where there is a guest singer, some professional dances, random celeb/pro banter, and every two [...]

With eliminations this week, the contestants tried their best to increase their scores and most of them got into a groove. Romeo stopped complaining about looking feminine and instead went the polar opposite, constantly flirting. Even Wendy managed to bring some personality out despite her obvious dancing difficulties. But I really dislike the fact that [...]

I’d normally be really upset with a heavy product placement-based Amazing Race episode, especially those episodes where the Travelocity gnome was just carried around with no real purpose. This episode was an exception, not only did the India-China tea trade make sense; it created a deceptively easy Roadblock. The roadblock was not a pure needle [...]

Brittani Current Ranking: 1 Previous Ranking: 3 Although she didn’t get the first call-out by Tyra, Brittani has provided the most consistency of all the girls. Though I’m not a fan of her anti-Alexandria position, she still went through and modeled really well. Read the full article at RTVC!
