This is a big week, Folks!

This week is going to be a busy one for me, folks. There are 2 shows returning this week, The Apprentice tonight and The Amazing Race tomorrow night. Then we have American Idol on for 3 nights plus the finale of Project Runway on Wednesday night, Survivor on Thursday night and I don't even want to go into what I watch that's non-reality. My VCR is going to be smoking this week! Makes me wish for Tivo but Direct TV refuses to give me a free Tivo box unless I sign a 2-year contract with them. Uh, uh - don't think so. I would think after being a customer of theirs for 2 years that they would be happy to give me a box without any catch. Oh well. But I digress...

Well, Survivor Exile Island has been on for a while...it's turned out to be the Survivor Boy's Club with 4 women consecutively voted out. There's 4 women left and only one of them seems to be playing smart. But I think the chances of a man winning this time around is high. Watch it turn out to be Bobby, the guy who sleeps all day, does no work at camp and announces when he has to take a dump. The guy gets no facetime but I bet he makes it to the end and Survivor fans will be in an uproar. LOL!

My favorite is Cirie...in the first episode, we learned she had leafophobia (fear of leaves) and was considered one of the "older" women despite being in her mid-30's (yes, I am still scratching my head over that one since I am 35 and don't feel old.). She was told in week 2 that she was second in line of being voted off since 4 people on her tribe already forged an alliance. Well, somehow, Cirie is still in it. She has managed to keep her mouth shut, participate well in challenges (despite being about 25 pounds overweight and having at least a DD bust), work hard at camp and she has bided her time well, watching while that alliance of 4 on her tribe slowly dissolves. Her sidebar moments with the camera are hysterical and I just love her attitude. I'm hoping she stays around for a while. She is truly a great player in the game of Survivor.

If you know me, you know I am a Project Runway geek. I love this show more than Survivor, to be honest and that's saying a lot! This season was so much better than last season. The talent was phenomenal, Heidi Klum looked extra cute with her protuding pregnant belly, and there were many designers to root for. I fell in love with Nick Verraros. That's my baby right there. Yes, he's gay but every gay man needs a fabulous straight girlfriend to shop with, have drinks with, chat it up with and just adore. Nick, I want you to be my GBF (gay boyfriend). I actually cried when he got eliminated because I felt he was robbed. But from I hear, he is not sweating it and is doing his thing. He actually went to the Olympics in Torino and was a fashion correspondent for a cable channel, designed a dress for one of the actresses from Desperate Housewives, and his Barbie doll from Project Runway has sold out. I never got one, which I am still bummed about. :(

So, who will win: Chloe, Daniel or Santino??? All I know is, if Santino wins, you will hear my screams all the way in Europe. I think Daniel should win. To sum it up, he is awesome. I guess we will find out when we tune in on Wed night (3/1) at 9pmEST on Bravo. The reunion show will air at 9pm and part 1 of the finale will air at 10pm. Part 2 of the finale will air on March 8.

Another guilty pleasure of mine has turned out to be the show Flavor of Love on VH1. It's like the ghetto version of The Bachelor with Flavor Flav from rap group Public Enemy (who also did Surreal Life and Strange Love on VH1 as well). Flav had 25 women vying for his attention and love. Instead of a rose, he gives them clocks (LOL!) and tells them "You know what time it is!". Oh damn, B and I crack up over this every week. Flav admitted in the beginning of the show that he had a terrible memory so he gave each of the ladies a nickname. When the girl is eliminated, her real name is revealed to the viewers.

He had some crazy girls on this show. One girl, whose nickname was Hottie, was just out there. Flav learned that she was on the show Blind Date and admitted on TV that she was after money so he eliminated her. Another chick that is out there is New York. She actually has made it to the final 2, much to B and I's disbelief. But I have to say, she is entertaining and keeps you watching. She goes on and on about how she loves Flav, how he's a beautiful man and how she is prettier than all the girls there. She flips out when he doesn't pay attention to her or goes with one of the other girls. She talks in a weird way with her eyes closed. The girl has issues. B and I almost want Flav to choose her to see if VH1 will do another show about them! LOL! There was one girl who we thought was perfect for Flav but he eliminated her last week. Her nickname was Goldie and she was so down to earth and had such a great personality. Oh well. Who knows what type of woman Flav is looking for?

Anyway, I have gabbed long enough about reality TV. I need to run and do my research...I am planning to switch cell phone providers and am thinking of switching to Sprint or Cingular. Haven't decided yet so I am going to see what I find online about both companies and their service.

Until next time with remote in hand,
Marcy :)
