Reality TV-watching confessions
I hadn’t visited Relevant History in a while, but I see that Alex Pang, like me, is hooked on The Amazing Race. Personally, I don’t think Mirna and Charla were as detestable a duo as Colin and Christie. Well, primarily Colin. If Christie develops some common sense and dumps her ugly-American boyfriend, there may be hope for her yet. But I really, really wanted to see Colin’s sorry tantrum-throwing ass get hauled off to jail in the last episode. (I can’t wait to see what the snarky recappers at Television Without Pity make of it.) If they win, I will lose all faith in humanity. And yet I can’t tear myself away on Tuesday nights.
So. Team I hate most: see above. Team I was sorriest to see get eliminated: Bob and Joyce. (They were one of the only couples who reacted to stress by being sweet to each other — and I got a big kick out of watching them play hockey in the St. Petersburg episode.) Team I’m rooting for: Chip and Kim. Go, Chip and Kim, go!
I am a TAR addict. And a TWoP addict.
