Happy Wednesday everyone!

I love how Anderson and John both indiscreetly check.

I have seen this in the differences between The Traitors UK and The Traitors US.

Despite being set in the same location and using the exact same game format the US show is a much less pleasant watch involving many contestants already famous from other reality shows and a far, far greater and more overt 'dog eat dog' mentality.

Thus far everyone on The Traitors UK has been a "normal" person and in the first series it really does seem that people have immediately forgotten the concept of what they're doing there at all.

It's SO different!

And layer this year we're getting the first Celebrity Traitors UK with some REALLY FAMOUS PEOPLE signed up. Like Stephen Fucking Fry!!! Presumably because they think it looks respectable and like a bit of a laugh and not like they'll face total humiliation on tv.

I know that some British people take umbrage at Americans calling the Great British Bake Off relaxing, but it's just because GBBO is such a different kind of stressful from American baking shows.

American baking shows will be called something like "Cupcake Knife Fight", there's horror movie lighting everywhere and dramatic stings every 5 seconds. All of the contestants are shit talking each other and fist fighting over the one single deep fryer provided by production. It will show the judges all whispering to each other at their super villain table overlooking the whole kitchen, and one will be like, "Oh my god. Everyone look at Brenda right now. She's straight tanking it." And it will cut to Brenda, who is running around covered in flour and crying and also bleeding for some reason. Then you get a clip from an interview with one of the contestants, and they're like, "I really need to win this. Without this award money, I'm gonna need to close my restaurant, sell my dad, and live out of my car. AGAIN." Then the giant digital doomsday clock overhead lets out a horrid klaxon, the judges tell half of them that their cupcakes taste disgusting, and one of them gets eliminated and sent to walk down the dramatically-lit shame hallway never to be seen again.

Meanwhile GBBO is in a lovely, brightly colored tent, there are delightful and friendly hosts/jesters there to keep everyone entertained, and all of the B Roll is of like... a bumblebee going into a flower, or a lamb running in a field. And yes, there will be moments where someone will mess up their timing or something, and they'll be looking at their bake through the oven door like, "oh gosh I don't think this will rise in time!" Then they stand up to find Paul Hollywood directly behind them ominously. His creepy whitewalker eyes will glow white, and he'll say something like "the 12th of June. 2035. Drowning." And his eyes will go back to normal and he'll walk away. Then the baker gives a playful grimace to the camera and says "that didnt sound great, did it?". Cut to a sweet looking older woman sipping tea on a stool and she says "oo I do hope that Prue enjoys the taste of my sugary, sticky baps!". Then, at the end, someone gets a gold star for doing good, and the loser of the episode gets in the middle of a giant group hug. You see all of them at the end of the series at a giant carnival with their families and the post credits informs you that all of the contestants have become a Partridge Family-style traveling band and stayed friends forever.

Started watching The Residence last night! When Cordelia Cupp walked in and introduced herself as a "consulting detective" I assured Bob that I wouldn't be bothering with the "that's so Sherlock"s for this series. They're redundant.

I was a big fan of Uzo Aduba in Orange Is even if her character was a little all over the place, and I'm delighted to see her in another massive show! And the dollhouse-style views of The White House- I never knew I wanted those!

We've been enjoying spotting the other big name actors with which we're vaguely familar. And my politically informed husband gets to answer insightful questions such as "What even IS the West Wing anyway? Ok, well what's the East Wing?" I should watch The West Wing.

there are two competing sects on this website - one that uses the word "spicy" to mean "neurodivergent" and one that uses the word "spicy" to mean "sexual content." i do not like either of them

Update:

He has agreed to write me a sick note for THE PAST FOUR YEARS!

I literally never thought that would happen! I'm really not even sure they're allowed to tbh. But I am NOT questioning it, not at all!

Don't mind me, I'm just awaiting a call from the most annoying GP at my local practice.

That is an EXCELLENT dressing gown!

(Apologies that I don't really know what a housecoat is- I think it's largely the same!)

Playing a tabletop RPG where being married is mechanically represented as a persistent status condition and the evil wizard trying to dispel your party's buffs accidentally gives you a divorce.
