Beyond Spelling Manor
Did you guys watch Selling Spelling Manor? I did write about it at the time. It was on HGTV and basically documented the selling of Aaron and Candy Spellings 53,000 foot home in California. It was really an incredible mini series. Well, Candy Spelling is ratings gold if you ask me. The new mini series follows her as she purchased and renovated her condo called The Manor In The Sky. The condo includes a salt water swimming pool, rose garden, floating stair case and of course a gift wrapping room...all 42 stories up with views all the way out to the Pacific Ocean. Ya gotta see her in action. Insane wealth.
Get Out Alive with Bear Grylls
I completely understand that there are people out there who love to climb and hike and camp and who really love the outdoors. Even so, I don't know why anyone would submit themselves to the insanity that is Bear Grylls' Get Out Alive challenge. It's just completely brutal. Last night, the cast had to climb a 300 foot waterfall, then climb a massive mountain. No special celebratory dinner, they ate spaniard shrubs, maggots and duck eggs that had fully formed chicks inside. Everyone was exhausted and ready for bed. Robin and Wilson were in charge of setting up the shelter, but all they did was throw sleeping bags down on the ground. Not good enough. Not good enough at all, but it was Donna and her Mom, Camden, really just couldn't handle anything. Everything was difficult for them and it was either them or Robin and Wilson who would be sent home. Bear chose Camden and Donna which made sense. Next week I'm guessing that Robin and Wilson will go home and then...then it will become ultra competitive because the rest of the teams are pretty sharp.Below Deck
Dear Bravo...I love Below Deck, but I need WAY more Eddie and Dave and WAY less Adrienne. She's a jerk and not at all enjoyable to look at. Eddie and Dave and the rest of the crew/cast are much more enjoyable to look at and listen to. This weeks episode picked up where we left off last week. Simon and his disgusting friends were still on the boat and Kat was trashed. Adrienne forced Kat to go to Captain Lee and tell him that she was drinking but when she got there, she admitted that she takes medication for anxiety and that's what was making her act so strange. I honestly wasn't sure I believed her or not, but I guess Captain Lee sees this kinda thing all the time. He told Kat to provide proof of her prescription. She didn't wig out or anything so I guess she was telling the truth. Sam claims to be a rocket scientist but again, she's on a yacht cleaning for a living and putting sentencess together like: "Simons a scumbag, Adrienne's a doosh and together they are a scummy doosh". Really? That's the best your rocket scientist classes taught you? After all was said and done, the crew members each received a $900 tip which was par for the course, but they all thought that it stunk because these people were Adrienne's friends. Guess they thought that since they were friends, an average tip would be okay. Nope guys...that's not how it works. Not cool. Also not cool was having your boss see you wasted and on the poll at a bar, but that's exactly what happened to Kat. Talk about mortifying!News & Information:
-5pm came and went last night and CBS was still going strong on Time Warner systems in the area. Talks were going well enough for yet another extension to 8pm then...it was 10pm and then...
-Burning Love, a show that originated online and got picked up by E! was just renewed for 2 more seasons. I don't watch the dating genre, so no Bachelor or Bachelorette or anything of that sort. This show is a spoof on that genre. Even though it's a spoof, I never had any interest, but I've always heard good things. Anyone watching?
-I'm guessing that since Under the Dome was just officially renewed, the inhabitants of Chester's Mill and the dome itself aren't getting out any time soon. I don't read Stephen King novels (when I do read) so I have no idea if the residents of Chester's Mill live or die in the book. Apparently they live in the show, and Stephen King will be writing the script for next Summer's continuation of this nutty story. Not sure I'll be back next season, but I'm finishing what I started this Summer.
-Whose Line is it Anyway was also renewed for a second season. It's working pretty well over on the CW.
-Not sure if Dr. V. can solve all of the Giudice's current problems. Yesterday they were all over the headlines as both Teresa and Joe Giudice were charged with 39 counts of fraud, tax evasion and more. I gotta see how they get out of this one.
-We all thought that Andy Cohen landing Cher was the "get" of the Summer, maybe the year, but on 8/15 Oprah herself will be hanging out in the clubhouse. I'd love to see her drink from the shotski and play "Plead the Fifth" with Andy. I'm guessing she's going to be talking all about the OWN network and how awesome Iyanla and Tyler Perry are, but I'll be watching no matter what. I can't wait. Great "get" Andy.
-This has NOTHING to do with TV, but I was looking at something that showed the times most people open their email and was surprised to learn the time that most emails are opened each day. You'd probably think it would be in the morning right? Me too! Shocker...it isn't! 3-4pm is the number one hour for opening emails followed bye 10-11am and 11-12n. Just thought you might find that interesting.
-Another interesting bunch of facts: It makes complete sense to me that 66% of kids 14-17 own smartphones and I definitely wasn't shocked that 56% of 10-13 year olds own them, but I was a bit surprised that 39% of 6-9 year olds do and 25% of 2-5 year olds do. I'm assuming that the parents upgrade and give their devices to their kids, but still...25% of 2-5 year olds own Smartphones? REALLY?
-Last interesting tidbit...Time spent online for both social networking and video consumption on a desktop or laptop is down overall vs last year. Not by much, 4%. But Smartphone social networking and video consumption is up 148% vs. last year! Also up a ton...tablet usage for both social and video, by 157%. Behavior changes fast doesn't it?
-Award for the coolest celeb in Hollywood goes to...Aaron Paul who came out of his home to meet some Breaking Bad fans...check it out: http://tv.yahoo.com/blogs/tv-news/breaking-not-so-bad--watch-aaron-paul-surprise-a-van-full-of-tourists--185710086.html
