I know you've all been on pins and needles waiting to find out what I think of the reality shows I've been watching this summer, so I will torture you no more. I shall now give you my run down of the reality shows I keep up with.
Next Food Network Star:
What I like about this show because it puts the contestants, who must have some cooking talent to be on there in the first place, through their paces. What I don't like about this show is that they have some of the Food Network people who I hate, that dude with the spiky bleached hair and Paula Deen, on there as well. Thankfully fat bleached hair guy and Paula 'The Queen of Fat' Deen aren't on there every week.
I hate all the male contestant they've got on this go round. I especially hate the fat gay guy with the stupid beard who wears the dumb looking hat all the time. I don't hate him because he's gay, I hate him because he makes my skin crawl and because I cringe when he opens his mouth. I see a public access cooking/gay sex tips show in his future, so if you live in the New York metro area look for that soon.
I think this gal is going to win it all:
And this gal is going to get a Food Network show as well:They are both too good not to have a show of some kind on the Food Network.
The Fashion Show:
I tried to like it but I absolutely hate it. I like Isaac Mizrahi. I love his co host Kelly Rowland, and for my money she was the real hottie of Destiny's Child. And I liked Project Runway. But for some reason I'd rather be forced to take long slow tepid showers with the late Captain Kangaroo, Carol Channing, and Osama Bin Laden all at the same time than watch that show. Seriously, I hate it more than I hate being beaten in the kidneys with sacks of quarters.
Top Chef Masters:
I like it despite the fact that I hate most all of the food critics on there and I think the Asian gal they got to host it is kind of creepy. What I like is seeing big time chefs being put through the same kinds of challenges that the usual chefs go through. I think I'll like it even more when they finish all these preliminary rounds and they get into the usual competition that I've come to know and love from Top Chef.
I'm looking forward to the new Anthony Bourdain shows coming up on the Travel Channel later this month, because honestly, how many times can they run shows with Samantha Brown and that fat bald guy who eats all sort of animal scrotums and asses before we blow our brains out? And maybe, just maybe, Lifetime will actually air Project Runway sometime this summer.

I really wanted to like the fashion show, but it's B-A-D.
i can't get into top chef masters either. i don't know if it's the host chick that throws it off for me or the fact that these aren't just regular joe blows competing.
I haven't seen either show, I should give them a shot. Particularly the Food Network Star one, since it looks a bit more interesting.:)
I only like Top Chef Masters challenges if Mario Batali loses. To describe him, there should be some word BEYOND "arrogant". Also, has anyone else noticed that he looks exactly like a pig?
No comments on the Real Housewives of NJ or those prep school kids? I was eagerly anticipating your take on them. As for the other shows, I completely agree with you.
LMS-I don't watch those real housewives shows or that one about those snotty rich kids in NY. I only watch reality shows based shows where the contestants have some talent and some skills, therefore I only watch the shows where food or clothing is made.
The next season of "Top Chef" should be real interesting. I know that Wally Dufrasne (sp?) will certainly have more empathy the next time he judges. And I agree, Kelly Choi creeps me out. As a matter of fact, she makes Padma seem lucid sometimes.
It is Wiley - but, no matter...
I wanted to say that I agree with most of what you said. Here is what I do not agree with...
Kelly Rowland is hotter than Beyonce, but she is TERRIBLE on the Fashion Show. Just stupid. Like worse than SJP stupid.
For the life of me I cannot figure out why the judges like the gay guy from Brooklyn so much, but if Jamika gets a show it will be like that Sunny chick with "Cooking for Real" for me. A turn-off. She is annoying. ALMOST as much as I am annoyed by Debbie - "Hey, I'm Korean".
Melissa better win! She rocks.
And seriously what is up with that Choi chick? Why her? I would have even preferred that moron who hosts all the realty reunion shows.
Do you watch "Chopped" on Food Network?
The fat bleached-spiky-hair-wearing-sunglasses-backwards-on-head guy is Guy Fieri, who goes around to independent "Diners, Drive-Ins and Dives" yet shills for TGI Friday's.
