Is this on Animal Planet? If so, I won't be able to watch. My cable company cancelled the channel unless I want to pay an extra $30 a month to get it and a few other channels they cancelled.

Just read on my Comcast schedule that the season opener first challenge is to groom Saint Bernards using only household tools they find in a neighborhood.

I'm so lucky...LOL. This is the first Saturday that I'm home in ages and my favorite show starts...mustabeenagoodgirl. Seriously, this show was great fun for me to watch. Alot had to do with Artis, I adored him. But the other cast members were interesting too. Happy viewing.

Wasn't Artis the one who picked the worst looking dog last year because he felt bad for it? I liked him alot also. It's almost time for the show to start.

I wasn't impressed. Trying to remember how I felt after the 1st show last year.

I was excited for this show, but I have to admit I really hate the "extreme" grooming and added color that they seem to love. Unfortunately, last night's episode was all the stuff I hated from season one, rolled into one. I may keep watching just for the basset hound episode, though

I am just so happy for something to watch on Saturday night. I do agree, I don't like adding color to the dogs, but I liked the St. Bernards. I can't get over that girl with the Boa, don't remember her name, but I don't think she will be on too long. Also from the previews it looks like there are some big time criers in the group.

I was pretty annoyed with this first episode. Didn't they get all pompous and uppity last year on the proper standards on how to groom each breed? I don't think its exactly standard to turn those poor poodles into wall art. I hope future episodes are kinder to the animals and their dignity.

I'm not fond or the decorating of the dogs but I'm hopeful that it won't happen often. I want Artis bak. Has anyone read any news on how his dog grooming business is doing?

Artist is getting his own show that starts in May on Animal Planet. I believe it's called Beverly Hills Groomer... http://www.thefutoncritic.com/news.aspx?id=20090310animalplanet01

Yes, Marej, the gal who left seemed to have a chip on her shoulder. I'd missed all the previous episodes, but did catch this one. How many episodes have there been so far, pls? She had an over-inflated opinion of herself and of her grooming skills, apparently. I enjoyed the show last season and have set the DVR to record the rest of this season.

I also love this show. I bred and showed dogs for 12 years all over the US, so I find this show of particular interest. This show is for grooming dogs that aren't to be shown, so the standard is entirely different from show grooming. For instance, hand stripping some terrier breeds can take 8 hours if done properly, and blowing out and clipping a show poodle cut takes days and weeks ( some will argue months)to attain the proper look. Actually attaining the look you see in dog shows takes years to breed properly to get the best dogs, groom, and prepare. These groomers have to try to achieve that "look" in an hour or two, so I really admire their work. I loved Artis (sp?) who won last year, what a dear, wonderful, sweet guy, can't wait to see his show.

Artist was on tonight - judging the .... (all I can think of is "quick fire challenge LOL) 2 teams of 4 groomers - they have to do a top knot on a dog - as soon as they finish - then ring the buzzer then Artist judges whether is AKC/show quality - if yes, they get a point for their team - if no, back to the race - no clips of his show, but they did plug it... (lol no pun intended!) and when the winning team jumped for joy - their dog was all alone on that table, YIKES!!
