DWTS is Fierce!

The new season of Dancing With The Stars is fierce!  I'm watching it right now; frontrunners Melissa from The Bachelor and Tony Dovolani are awesome...  I mean, the thing is, she's a trained ballet dancer and was a Dallas Cowboys cheerleader, so she definitely has an unfair advantage. But she's just so good!  I also like when the judges recognize good choreography--tonight Kari Ann told Tony it was his best choreo ever on the show.

Since tonight's show isn't on YouTube yet, here's a clip of Shawn Johnson and Marc Ballas dancing salsa a couple of weeks ago.  Yeah, she's great too, but Marc is GOING OFF on this dance, especially around the 30-second mark.  Yum.

A few stories...

Well, the list of injuries on Dancing With The Stars continues to grow...  This time it's Kym Johnson; apparently she fell or something and has injured her shoulder.  Luckily it won't take her out of the competition and she will dance tonight with Warren Sapp.  Who is next?

The new season of Hell's Kitchen will be premiering on January 29  on FOX.  Will you be watching?  I might...  I haven't really gotten into that show because I think Gordon Ramsay is overrated, but maybe this season I will give it a try.

ABC has announced it's thirteenth season of The Bachelor will premier on January 5.  Who is the man this time?  It's Jason Mesnick, who didn't win the last season of The Bachelorette. Creative, ABC, very creative.

That's really all that's going on in the world of reality TV...  Kinda boring, I know.

Sunday news...

It looks like American Idol champ Carrie Underwood has found herself a new man--former Bachelor Travis Stork!  They were recently seen having dinner together in Philly; also, Travis has been spotted backstage at a few of Carrie's concerts.  They make a great looking couple!

What were you for Halloween?  Some of Reality TV's biggest stars hit some parties with some fierce costumes...

*Here's Heidi Klum as a Hindu god.  If you're gonna do it, do it all the way!

*Ex-member of Making the Band Aubrey O'Day was The Little Mermaid.  What's with the dog?

*Kim Kardashian dressed up as Wonder Woman.  She's actually completely clothed!

*He could have tried harder...  Lance Bass was a High School Musical graduate.

*Heidi:Spencer::Cop:Robber.  Lame.

*She's dating that ugly dude and dressed as Pamela Anderson...  Good one, Holly Madison.

Saturday Night tidbits...

Talk shows count as reality TV, right?  Right.  Check out this clip from Oprah's show today--"Oprah's Favorite Things...for Summer."  As expected, the audience goes NUTS.  It's amazing.  I wish SNL would put their clips on YouTube so I could also share the sketch they do about it...  

Apparently (hopefully?) Flavor of Love is FINALLY coming to an end.  The season finale is also being billed as a series finale, but who knows.  

I'm not really sure why, but VH1 has bought the exclusive rights to every season of The Bachelor, including the three or four seasons of The Bachelorette.  Why?  Don't they have enough dating shows?

It's official: Nina Garcia will definitely be a part of Project Runway's fifth season.  Her new position at Elle allows her to still hold her ties to Heidi and the gang.  Dank sei Gott!

Here is a great schedule of all the reality shows on TV this summer!  I haven't figured out what I'm gonna do yet because I really don't watch that much TV in the summer...  Ugh. Ghostwriters?  Guest bloggers?  IDK.

Updates!

The 20th season is just beginning to air, but The Real World's 21st season is set to begin filming this summer in Brooklyn.  Interesting...  Brooklyn is becoming such a cultural hotspot; I have a few friends (and ex-friends) living there, so maybe I'll have to go for a visit sometime.  Maybe.

I've never been a big fan of The Bachelor; it just doesn't do it for me.  This is interesting, though: the winner of this past season, Shayne, just posed for Girls Gone Wild magazine.  Yeah, I didn't know there was a magazine, either.  Classy, right?

So You Think You Can Dance? returns to FOX on May 22.  Yes!!!  I'll be able to watch like a month and a half of it before summer comes and I won't have cable.

FOX has another show coming soon called Secret Millionaire.  Looks interesting, even if it has already been a success in England.  I think a lot of networks are looking for reality shows that help people out: Extreme Makeover: Home Edition, 10 Years Younger, Oprah's Big Give, etc.
