Has anyone ever watched the show Dhani Tackles the Globe? It stars Dhani Jones, who was a linebacker in the NFL (I know him because he was with the Eagles a couple years; he also played for the Giants); Dhani goes around the world and learns/competes in indigenous athletic competitions.

First, it's a delight because Dhani is just a delightful host and super handsome to boot (this week he spent most of the episode shirtless because he was learning lutte, a Senegalese wrestling competition).
dhani
it was hard to figure out which pic of Dhani to post because...he's totally dreamy

It's also a cool way to learn about cultures outside the normal "this is the economy and this is what the food is like" kind of travel fare. The show is on the Travel Channel on Monday nights. I DVRed it because of DWTS and it was really worth it. Next episode, I think, is in Iceland, so that should be cool.

I enjoyed the TLC show that was on last night called Quintuplet Surprise. It was just a one hour one time only show. I saw from the family's website that they hope they will get a series from this. I missed the first part of the show. I tuned in just as the last baby was coming home from the hospital after being born. The show ended with the Quints first birthday party.

I really enjoy watching all the logistics in taking care of so many babies.

This family has a very beautiful house that the husband built himself. There was a chance that they would have to move though. It looks like that may be the case in the future too.

What about "Design Star " ? I can't remember if that is a summer tv show treat or not.

I heard an announcement last night that "Design Star" is "coming in June." Sorry - no date was given - or, if it was, I didn't hear it!

Interesting that Kathy Griffin has a thread in this section, but Kirstie Alley and Tori Spelling do not.

I have been hooked on Tori and Dean for the past 3 seasons....even though I always disliked her during the 90210 years. I sort of feel sorry for her.

And Kirstie is just like a big ole train wreck, can't look away.

BicBic you can always start a thread for a particular show you like, and chances are others will hop on. :-)

I've been watching Tori and Dean thru Comcasts on demand - Kirstie's show really seemed "scripted" to me - is she a producer? Almost (almost!) to the point that I wondered if after she realized what a huge media attention she got for losing the weight on Jenny Craig, did she gain it back to promote her own stuff - and do it on a reality show (more money and air time?)

I know, call me skeptical!! ;)

Mame, LOL, I'm always afraid to start a thread. I think I started one or two in all the years of BB obsessions~ I don't know why. And I never start one at other forums!

Paula Abdul is likely to be one of the judges for the CBS dance show "Got to Dance"- they're supposed to announce it today (perhaps as part of their summer plans)

Anyone watching Last Comic Standing? I watched half the first episode and it was pretty funny. I couldn't find the thread, that's why I posted in here.

Last Comic Standing lost a lot of credibility when it was found that the "contestants" were "plants" or they were given a pass and moved straight to the front of the line - producers went to agents for the "talents" -

and then the same thing for the winner - left a bad impression for me..

(not that I remember the details correctly)

It's crappy if that happened but I just want to laugh. I'll leave it up to the comics to stand up for themselves and get them to make the logistics right. I'll continue watching, especially since there is virtually nothing on these days.

I watched "You're Cut Off" on VH1. Funny and stupid as you can get. Spoiled rich girls living together. But it's like Hell's Kitchen, it's the train wreck thing; you have to watch or you will miss something.

Marej, I watched Cut Off. The blond that was on one of The Bachelor shows....the one that was a "princess" is on. I saw the first episode I'll watch again if I see it.

Is anyone watching THE OCD project on VH1???? I've seen 2 episodes and think it's being done very well. About a group of people with varying types of OCD live together while a Dr. walks them through various therapies.

Oh and Omorassa has a new reality show coming on - Bethenny was on the view and someone asked her if she was like Omorassa (and poor Whoopi didnt know who that was) well today Omorassa got a few moments to defend herself (Bethenny said she was infamous and B thought she was more like Elisabeth, and Elisabeth took offense to that! whatever)

Donald Trump tries to help Omorossa find true love in The Ultimate Merger on TV One June 17

Just saw a commercial for it, Omorssa is a bachelorette and kissing face

Ugh. That's one show I won't ever have to worry about watching. (That O woman's!)

I caught the first episode of "You've Been Cut Off." I thought it was hilarious! These women are spoiled rotten and it's way past time they were cut off!! Gia looks a train wreck. I'll watch cuz that's just what it is... a train wreck and I can't look away!

I watched Last comic standing last night and I found it very 'Unfunny'... If these guys are plants, they are not funny at all....

I loved You've been cut off, will be interesting to see if any of them actually get a clue.

The OCD project is quite intriguing as well.
