The Challenge (11/26) – I hate cold, so I’m feeling for them. Also, doing stuff in altitudes is no joke. I always find the finals so hard to watch just because they are so hard. They’d teased the chance to stake a claim was coming, and I expected it would be a cliffhanger. I’m curious to see if anyone does. I could see multiple people doing it. But if Olivia and Theo wind up together, I suspect that would be the end of their relationship.
Survivor (11/26) – I’m not sure how I feel about that outcome. I mean, I feel like Rizzo and his alliance are really on top. So it would have been nice to see them brought down a peg or two. But all the intrigue and double crosses made it very fun to watch. I usually have some clue what is going to happen, but I really didn’t know what was going to happen this time.
The Amazing Race (11/26) – As soon as the “previously on” game on, it hurt to lose the team from last week all over again. This episode? I’m surprised the father/daughter team lasted as long as they did, honestly. Always hard to be on a plane by yourself, so I’m glad they were able to make up time. Although getting lost was really the only thing that made a difference in the end.
Celebrity Weakest Link – I’m a little surprised they aired this one now instead of closer to Christmas. That aside, this was a fun episode. Nice to see Eric on there. I didn’t think Melissa would last as long as she did just because others would vote her out. And she won! Rather handily, too. Lots of splits in the voting; nice to see people weren’t working as a team. And they banked a respectable amount of money, although that last round was painful.
TV We Love – I may have seen an episode or two over the years, but I was never a regular watcher of Touched by an Angel. But I’ve been curious about it after getting hooked on the creator’s Signed, Sealed, Delivered franchise. And I can see how the two shows share similar DNA. I think I’d like the show if I gave it a chance. Theology might be questionable, but overall, I think I’d like it. Now, to find the time to watch it.
Dancing with the Stars – I feel like I’ve missed some previous holiday editions since I didn’t remember any of the flashbacks they presented. Heck, I was thinking “this is something new and fun this year.” I was right about one thing – it was lots of fun. The dancing was pretty amazing. I don’t know that I could have ever moved my body like that.
Wipeout – Yet another episode where half of a team decides to skip the final course. I’d get it in injury were involved, but wow. Guess they didn’t know what they signed up for. I don’t think I’d do well with it in real life myself, so I get it. But two in the handful of episodes we are getting seems like a lot.
Shifting Gears – So glad the show was back, especially with that episode. Might just be the funniest of the season to date. Enjoyed seeing Eve interacting with the rest of the cast more. Do wish we’d hear less about Eve and Matt’s private time. But the rest of the jokes were pretty funny.
The Challenge – No one changed. Obviously, that wasn’t the outcome I wanted, but I had to hand it to them, they earned it. I mean, wow! That was a brutal final half. I couldn’t take it, and I was just watching it.
Survivor – I didn’t see unanimous decision coming. Now that it’s six, it will be interesting to see how things go. And still no knowledge is power played? Will it get played this season? Meanwhile, Stephen really pulled through for himself with the advantage (which no one knows exactly what is), and willing immunity. I feel like the challenge wasn’t quite as challenging this time, but maybe that’s just how dramatic all the falls the normal way it is run make it look.
The Amazing Race – I was not expecting the cliffhanger ending. They’ve done it before, but usually when the episodes are airing back to back. Not super excited about the final, but I’ve been kind of meh about this season overall, I guess. I think it’s because the only other team with a chance to win was eliminated a couple episodes ago. We know who’s going to win. It’s not even going to be close. Loses some of the excitement.
Happy’s Place – Fun episode. I like how the two storylines wove in and out of each other. Really, the third, if we count Dakoda’s couple of scenes. Seriously, they’ve got to figure out what to do with him. Steve and Gabby get the most laughs from me as always. Especially when they are together, they are comedy gold.
