It's an icky religion, there are lots of them.

I have no problem with what she's doing at all, and if it helps other people to escape the cult, or not get drawn in in the first place, then good for her.  It's only a religion for tax purposes, and otherwise it's a cult built around fairy tales written by a second-rate science fiction author decades ago.

Per HT's rules, let's be careful about disparaging any religion or belief system despite what you may think if it or the people that believe in it. We don't do that here.

Another Survivor player is making the news for nothing good.  This one has a bunch on racist tweets from when she was a teenager. Was she just young and stupid back then? Is she racist now? I don't know. But I'll say she's obviously stupid now if she wasn't smart enough to delete her tweets.

Today Swaggie used it too about the people downstairs wanting Bayleigh to go up on the block and the tweets went crazy.  I don't think anyone should use that word.

Shaggy is likely trying to get his trending numbers up.  He has to have figured that nothing causes people to talk faster than a racist remark.

Last night was the premier of The Amazing Race Canada Heroes edition. Big fan of the host Jon Montgomery. Its always fun to see him do the tasks.

So Grodner is teaming up with LeBron James for a new obstacle course competition show.  For me, it appears they just keep mixing up elements of other Wipe Out/Ninja Warrior shows hoping something will stick.  Given the viewers reaction to Tyler this season, maybe it at least provide them with some good hammies for next season?

I struggled through the last two - blech.  It's just not what it used to be.  If you care to sit through 22 minutes in the hopes of a chuckle or two, this is the show for you.  Not for me.  

Apparently, Netflix agreed.

So it wasn't the host but the writers who made the original show, I guess.

[copssister]

It's like he had forgotten what worked.......10-15 second clips of jaw-dropping clips from reality TV shows with some commentary lead-in and lead-out.  Didn't he even watch a few YouTube videos of the old show in prepping?  I normally find him VERY funny, so I'm not sure what happened.

So is no one watching Love Island USA?  Of course I am going to watch.  It just seems like a better produced Paradise Hotel. 

I absolutely hate Caro - she defaults to baby talk when she tries to get flirty with any man.  

[Kyara]

I feel like I’d get an STD if I watched it. Ew.

[elizabethann]

I'm watching.  The British version got so many good reviews I thought I should.  Plus, Adele and other Brit celebs watch... Gah, I'm so easy.

Also, Caro is pretty useless.

Has anyone else tried The Circle on Netflix? It's a social media version of Big Brother in a way and it really is amazingly tacky and quite cringe-worthy at times....of course I couldn't stop watching. *hangs head in shame*.
