Here’s a video to wash all the Rebecca Black offa you. Sure, I love me a good Panda video, but what many don’t realize is that I also appreciate Red Pandas. Snow is fun isn’t it?

Rebecca Black just kinda exploded. Part of it was because the song was crap and people like Daniel Tosh made fun of the song, but another part of it was because it’s so freaking hysterical. I mean I’m not going to judge the fact that teenage girls dream of their weeks being over and having [...]

Jaclyn Current Ranking: 1 Previous Ranking: 2 She has the charm and she pops her booty when Tyra tells her to. It’s the perfect combination: being nice helps Jaclyn get a very positive edit, but it also shows that she’s willing to do anything to win the competition. Jaclyn needs to continue progressing her walk, [...]

America’s Next Top Model host Tyra Banks must really like fake drink commercials, last season with the fake energy drink and this season with “Fierce Roast.” What’s next? Smize water, made from the tears of previous contestants? I felt like the runway challenge was just a shameless plug for Lady GaGa, as if she needs [...]

I was happy to see a different Amazing Race landscape from the Beijing leg back in Season 14 and the Shanghai leg in Season 16. There was no self-driving in the actual episode and the only time they could have made a mistake was driving to the airport in Japan. Ironically, Kent & Vyxsin had [...]

America’s Next Top Model: Big Hair And Bigger Attitudes I was really disappointed this week with the America’s Next Top Model photos. So far the girls have built themselves a very underwhelming portfolio. The girls were given such beautiful outfits and Pamela Hanson did a horrible job dealing with lighting. Why is there a big [...]

Molly Current Ranking: 1 Molly took this week like a trooper getting some of the worst hair ever. Her makeover shoot suffered from it and she had to go around wearing scarves over her head to cover up the part line where her hair ended and her weave began. By placing a poof on her [...]

I appreciated that this episode of The Amazing Race decided to go a different route from Season 15′s cityscape for more of Japan’s traditions celebrating Shinto and, well, I’m not sure what the mud exactly was a representation of. Why were so many teams gung ho on taking the needle in the haystack task? Especially [...]

This week of America’s Next Top Model saw the departure of Ondrei and apparent senior citizen Nicole, but there were just several odd elements to this episode.

I was on this kick to create a witty shirt. Unfortunately, my form of witty is not really funny. So I originally created a simple shirt called “Pantyhose” and it just so happened that I thought of other words that worked the same. The three links are below: Of course, clicking on Store on the [...]

I basically wasted an hour last week having the whole Amazing Race episode become moot when teams had to sign up for two different flights. If someone told me “Gary and Mallory received an Express Pass,” that’s all I needed to know.   Whoever decided to design the challenges this season get my gratitude. Not [...]
