Next week: Headhunters rescue soldiers and a Real Worlder goes back to Iraq

Andy Dehnart — Fri, 06 Nov 2009 12:48:25 -0500

A look back at the first week in November and a look ahead at next week:

The Past

The beginning of November started with a news organization producing TLC programming: guess who it was about? There was good news for Shark Tank fans and bad news for people who thought Cheaters was real. SYTYCD's producers decided Billy Bell's fate, while Tiffany and Maria revealed what their actual decision was during their final Amazing Race 15 episode. The rose ceremonies are going high def, while this site went high tech.

The Forward

Friday, Nov. 6 If you're still looking for Halloween scares, Ghost Adventures [Travel Channel, 9 p.m.] returns for a second season and visits Pennhurst State School and Hospital. Or just go see Paranormal Activity: that shit is scary. Also frightening: Platinum Babies [WEtv, 9 p.m.], which is about couples who spend tons of money on their kids--and not on future therapy bills.

Sunday, Nov. 8
Keeping Up with the Kardashians airs a special [E!, 9 p.m.] about Khloe Kardashian and Lamar Odom's wedding, because of course, that hasn't gotten enough attention already. Tool Academy concludes its second season [VH1, 9 p.m.], when the final two tools compete for $100,000 and the title of Mr. Awesome.

Monday, Nov. 9
Anatomy of a Takedown: Washington Sniper [Discovery Channel, 9 p.m.] follows police investigator Barney Forsythe as he tracks the DC snipers. Jon & Kate Plus Eight airs an hour of "viewer's top moments" [TLC, 9 p.m.]. But what if my top moment is the day the show goes off the air?

Tuesday, Nov. 10
So You Think You Can Dance [Fox, 8 p.m.] airs another two-hour performance episode, which doesn't bode well for the way these have been dragging, but at least viewers get to start voting to save contestants from the judges' Wednesday eliminations.

Wednesday, Nov. 11
On Veterans' Day, two very different documentaries look at contributions of men and women in the military. The debut of The Airmen and the Headhunters [PBS, 8 p.m., check local listings] is based on a a book subtitled "A True Story of Lost Soldiers, Heroic Tribesmen and the Unlikeliest Rescue of World War II" that is about a World War II bomber crew rescued by headhunters in Borneo. Return to Duty [MTV, 9 p.m.] follows Real World Brooklyn star Ryan Conklin as he goes back to Iraq for his second tour. MTV says it is "a documentary honoring young veterans and active duty servicemen and women." Also for Veterans' Day, HGTV's Carter Oosterhouse and Monica Pedersen play Extreme Makeover: Home Edition on transitional homes for veterans located in Philly and St. Louis.[HGTV, 8 p.m.] Also tonight: The debut of Coca-Cola: The Real Story Behind the Real Thing [CNBC, 9 p.m., repeats at 10, 12 a.m., 1 a.m.], which CNBS says "reveals never-before-seen labs, secret archives and high-tech product testing" and "the men and women whose mission it is to put the buzz back in the bottles."

Thursday, Nov. 12
Project Runway 6's finale begins [Lifetime, 10 p.m.] as Tim Gunn climbs into some product placement and visits the three designers as they work on their collections.

Russell and Erik both get blindsided; Erik "was completely vilified in five minutes"

Andy Dehnart — Fri, 06 Nov 2009 11:32:27 -0500

Finally: Survivor Samoa kicked into overdrive, with the merge episode pulling it out of its mid-season slump. After the tribes merged into Aiga, which Brett said was Samoan for "extended family" (maybe also for "extensive retching caused by cheesy tribe names"), everyone woke up from their game-play comas.

Just as he did on day one, Russell talked to everyone, showing his immunity idol to anyone who would look at it. He also formulated a plan to get rid of Laura, ending the Laura/Monica alliance. I'm still not sure why she or they constituted the greatest threat, but when Laura won one of two immunity necklaces at the first individual immunity challenge (another so-so challenge; I'm convinced they're saving the good ones for all-stars, or hopefully later this season) everyone went into a scrambling panic.

It was like the game went from 0 to 60 in two minutes, and it was great. It led to Russell finally losing control and playing his idol at Tribal Council even though he got zero votes, and also to Erik being blindsided but everyone except Shambo, who had earlier forgotten who he was ("Who's Erik?").

I was sad to see Erik go, and not just because his handling of Shambo and color commentary were both fantastic, nor just because he was so enthusiastic about playing the game after coming to Samoa as an alternate. Erik seemed to be one of the few people besides Russell who were actively engaged by the game, thinking ahead, especially before this week.

I just talked to Erik, and he told me that being voted out "broke my heart, man." He said he felt most betrayed by Brett and John, because "the plan was hatched and they didn't do anything to stop it, which to me was even worse."

That plan unfolded at the last possible second, and happened really fast, which is why Erik truly was blindsided. "The entire plot went down within five to seven minutes, from the idea to spreading to implementation to actually going to Tribal Council," he said. He's still dismayed that it came from Foa Foa: "This idea came from a Foa Foa member ... shut up and think about what you're doing," Erik said.

Earlier, he communicated with Foa Foa about plan, to vote for Monica after flushing out the idol, and because he came off as obnoxious, that seemed to trigger the chain of events that led everyone to blindside him. "Was I cocky? Was I arrogant? Absolutely. It was a show, it was a facade, and it was a show I put on for Foa Foa," Erik said. "I didn't care if they didn't like me. They were the enemy." He said their support was irrelevant: "No shit you can get four votes. We, Galu, are in control of this game."

Erik also said, "never in my wildest dreams didn't I think being cocky to Foa Foa would come back to haunt me." And he's someone who would think about that: Pre-game, he kept an 80+ page journal with his observations of the other players.

By the way, Erik said voting for Monica was "John's plan" but "I got the blame for it." He said that while "I knew it was a good decision to break that [alliance] up," he was willing to go along with it instead of a bigger power play because "I was loyal to my guys," and because he knew they could "make that work without jeopardizing our tribe."

I asked him if it was smart to continue to play a tribe-based game post-merge, and Erik said he tried to fight everyone's perception that the merge changed the game for a reason. "I did not want to get into an individual mindset, because an individual mindset works against me," Erik said. "I definitely underplayed the individual part of the game because I couldn't let my group start thinking that way" because in an individual game, "I am one of the top two or three people to go." But with Foa Foa gone, "I'm at least in the top eight," Erik said.

Now, he's the first member of the jury.

Project Runway 6 has its final three, and just two episodes to go

Andy Dehnart — Fri, 06 Nov 2009 09:18:51 -0500

"I'm a bit shocked to see this from you today," Heidi Klum said to one of the designers while critiquing her dress. That's exactly what I thought about this episode of Project Runway 6. I tuned in to half-watch as usual, and suddenly there were just five designers left, participating in their final runway challenge. Two went home, leaving the final three who will present at fashion week. Last February.

Anyway, this means that this misfire of a season will be over soon: two more episodes for a Nov. 19 finale.

The three designers who presented collections, and will be seen creating them in next week's episode, are Althea Harper, Carol Hannah Whitfield, and Irina Shabayeva. Gordana Gehlhausen and Christopher Straub were eliminated; the judges thought he was too inexperienced, and they couldn't figure out what her perspective was.

Christopher's exit meant that all male designers had been eliminated, which makes Irina, Carol Hannah, and Althea the show's first-ever all-female finalists, although not the first-ever female final three: Last season, Jerell was a finalist, but he was eliminated in a finale challenge before presenting at Fashion Week.

Jeana quit Real Housewives over money, which "wasn't enough"

Andy Dehnart — Fri, 06 Nov 2009 09:09:13 -0500

Jeana Keough has confirmed rumors she's leaving The Real Housewives of Orange County because of money. She'll appear in the first three episodes of the new season, which debuted last night; Bravo claims that she's leaving because her "real estate business has been hit the hardest, and she makes the decision to turn her focus away from the ladies to concentrate more on her work and family."

But Jeana told The Daily Beast, "I just didn't feel appreciated by the girls or the network. There's a lot of work that is involved--it's an all-year-round thing with all of the shooting and the press, and it wasn't enough."

Meanwhile, Vicki Gunvalson said the show has almost cost her money. "I almost lost a very large client of mine--a $2 million client--because he Googled me and said he didn't like what he was seeing on the TV show. I never tell my clients I'm on the show, and I hope they don't watch it, truthfully. They're over 65. They don't understand--this," she said.

reality blurred now has iPhone and mobile phone versions

Andy Dehnart — Thu, 05 Nov 2009 09:50:31 -0500

I recently learned that some people with newfangled mobile phones actually use them to access the Internets, and perhaps even sites like this one. So, if you have such a phone, which may look like this, you can now read a specialized version of reality blurred made just for your device.

Just use this URL: m.realityblurred.com. It will show a customized version for whatever kind of phone you have, including the iPhone. If you have an iPhone, press the + to add a link to your home screen, and reality blurred will appear there, just like an app.

For now, at least, your mobile phone won't default to the mobile-formatted version (let me know if you think this would be valuable rather than annoying), but if you're in the mobile version, you can always switch back to the regular web version via a link ("see full HTML version") at the bottom of every page. Right now, commenting is only on the full version, so follow that link, or the comment link, if you want to comment from your phone.

Check it out and let me know what you think. If you're insanely lazy, just enter your phone number here, and MoFuse--which powers the new mobile version--will text you a link to the new mobile version. Enjoy!

Willie Aames tries to rebuild his life on VH1 special Broke and Famous

Andy Dehnart — Thu, 05 Nov 2009 08:15:22 -0500

Tonight at 10 p.m. ET, VH1 debuts a one-hour special that explores Charles in Charge star Willie Aames, who has gone from being a millionaire to being in financial and personal ruin, so much so that his 18-year-old daughter sold her books to buy groceries. (Clearly, his two appearances on VH1's Celebrity Fit Club didn't make him rich.)

On Broke and Famous, a one-hour special, he works with life coach Sarano Kelley for seven days, who will give Aames $25,000 if he follows the coach's advice. Aames looks, well, like shit, and kind of pathetic as he walks around in camo showing off the heads of animals he shot. And the coach is a bad-ass who calls Willie a "train wreck." It's an intriguing format and interesting that it's just one hour, although it works as a back-door pilot for a series that could either keep following Aames or follow a different destitute star every episode. Either way, it's kind of a welcome change in direction for VH1--just as long as he doesn't get his own dating show.

Watch the first 12 minutes:

Celebrity Rehab offered $200,000 to Artie Lange; Dr. Drew saves football player's life

Andy Dehnart — Thu, 05 Nov 2009 08:12:08 -0500

Getting help from Dr. Drew on VH1's Celebrity Rehab offers a significant benefit to its stars beyond sobriety: lots of cash, which may explain why some of them are willing to do the show.

Comedian Artie Lange said earlier this week that he was offered $200,000 to be on VH1's Celebrity Rehab, but he turned it down. "They offered me 200 grand to do 'Celebrity Rehab.' I love Dr. Drew ... but I don't think that's helping Jeff Conaway ... They said it was about me getting better, but if I relapsed, they're not going to air that? ... My mother knows I've done coke, but she's never seen me do it," he told the New York Post.

Meanwhile, Dr. Drew, whose kinda bland spin-off Sex Rehab debuted last Sunday on VH1, also made headlines this week for saving a high school football player's life. On Friday, he "was attending a football game [at Pasadena's Polytechnic School, which his son attends] against Chadwick School when one of the 'Poly' players suffered a head injury ... [and later] complained of a headache, collapsed, fell into a coma and stopped breathing. [Dr. Drew] administered CPR until paradmedics arrived," KTLA reports.

The school issued a statement that said "We are especially grateful for the heroic efforts of Dr. Pinsky and prompt care and attention of Dr. Lewis, a faculty member and emergency room doctor at Harbor Medical. Together with the emergency medical personnel, they made all the difference in Jackson [Allan]'s progress."

Adam Jasinski indicted by grand jury, remains jailed

Andy Dehnart — Wed, 04 Nov 2009 20:01:39 -0500

Now that Richard Hatch is out of prison, it's great that we have another imprisoned, dumbass reality show winner to follow: Big Brother 9 winner Adam Jasinski was indicted today by a federal grand jury in Boston "on a charge of possession of Oxycodone with intent to distribute," The Boston Herald reports.

The paper notes that because the judge "[believes] him to be a flight risk, U.S. District Court Magistrate Judge Leo T. Sorokin has refused to release Jasinski on bail, under any conditions."

Bachelor 14 will be in high definition

Andy Dehnart — Wed, 04 Nov 2009 18:24:00 -0500

With the debut of its 14th season, The Bachelor will join other network reality shows that are broadcast in high definition. Jillian Harris reject Jake Pavelka's search for love starts Jan. 4.

The network said in a press release that the show "will be broadcast in 720 Progressive (720P), ABC's selected HDTV format, with stereo sound."

It's almost criminal that The Amazing Race is still broadcast in standard definition while Chris Harrison and the roses will be in high definition. And I'm not quite sure what so much cheesiness will look like in HD, but I fear it may induce vomiting.

Tiffany and Maria didn't quit TAR15, they took a 24-hour penalty for quitting the Detour

Andy Dehnart — Wed, 04 Nov 2009 15:44:47 -0500

After apparently quitting during Sunday's episode of The Amazing Race, pro poker players Maria Ho and Tiffany Michelle did a round of interviews in which they talked about their final day and the challenge of the Detour challenges. They say that their crushes on Sam and Dan were platonic, but do not talk about, nor were they apparently asked, about their own friendship/relationship.

First, Tiffany and Maria said they didn't really quit the show, but instead quit the Detour task, opting for a 24-hour penalty. (Roadblocks have a four-hour non-completion penalty.) Since it wasn't a non-elimination leg, and they were in last place, they were eliminated. They argue that between the physical strength required to hit the high striker--the mallet weighed 40 pounds, they say--and the physical conditions at the golf game--wind and cold made it more difficult.

While Maria told People, "I don't want to make excuses but we gave everything we had and we still couldn't complete either one," they pretty much give excuses in their interviews. Maria also argues that she contributed, rather than acting as weight Tiffany had to drag around the world, telling Reality TV World, "I think that I did my part in a lot of the other parts of the race that people don't really get to see, which is just as valuable in our opinion."

Tiffany told Reality TV World, "I think it was just a combination of it being a very physical task that we didn't have the strength and muscle mass to do, and it with the weather conditions and us being freezing cold, we just got weaker and weaker and weaker -- which is finally the point we realized we just had to be honest with ourselves and say, 'Okay, there's no way we can complete either side.'"

Maria told TV Guide that "if maybe we had stayed at the carnival bell a little bit longer the first time instead of going to the golf thing, we might've been able to do it. When Tiffany was getting close to ringing the bell, that was actually on our second try back. So it leads us to believe that we would've gotten it eventually if we stayed."

As to their alliance and friendship with Sam and Dan, which they justify as being beneficial, they said the men came out to them in Vietnam, so they knew before the airport coming out. Tiffany told Reality TV World, "We knew from Day 1, we had a pretty good feeling that they were the token gay team of the season. We knew that usually each season there's a gay team."

Because of that, Tiffany says their comments about wanting Sam and Dan weren't romantic. She said, "A lot of our comments about loving them and the kind of love fest that we had with them definitely came from a platonic place of just loving and respecting them as brothers as compared to what it may have seemed like on TV -- like we were falling in love with them and wanting to walk down to the altar and have their children. That definitely wasn't the case. So we knew early on that they were gay even though it kind of appeared otherwise."

Billy Bell gets into SYTYCD's next top 100, while Brandon Dumlao can re-audition

Andy Dehnart — Wed, 04 Nov 2009 09:14:27 -0500

Billy Bell, who was sidelined from So You Think You Can Dance due to a mysterious, potentially deadly illness, will return to the competition next season, although not in the top 20.

Instead, Nigel Lythgoe explained last night that the show's producers and Fox "have agreed that Billy Bell can join the competition at the top 100 in Vegas next season, and they've also agreed that Brandon can re-apply for this show. I think that's very fair."

Note that his replacement, Brandon Dumlao, who didn't make the top 20 but was subbed in only to be immediately eliminated, will only be allowed to audition again from the very start. Ouch.

Meanwhile, the show's experiment with tap dancers in the top 20 is two-thirds over: two of the three tappers, Phillip Attmore and Bianca Revels, were eliminated last night. Next week, with no World Series to interrupt the schedule, viewer voting starts.

Top Chef skips another week but reunites former contestants for an "all stars dinner"

Andy Dehnart — Wed, 04 Nov 2009 09:07:19 -0500

For the second time this season, Bravo is depriving us of a new episode of Top Chef, but instead of a repeat, is airing a one-off special called "All Stars Dinner."

Yes, it's a reunion, with Fabio Viviani hosting "an all-star get-together complete with a challenge," Bravo says. The chefs will also "rehash their favorite moments on the series," which means filler by way of clips. Bravo also promises confrontations between Marcel and Fabio, and Carla and Casey.

Besides Fabio, the chefs attending are Richard Blais, Harold Dieterle, Carla Hall, Hung Huynh, Dale Levitski, Stefan Richter, Casey Thompson, and Marcel Vigneron. That insufferable prick Ilan Hall will also be there, and I was recently reminded of how much I loathe him when I re-read his pre-finale comments about Marcel in which he bragged about taunts that didn't make it on the air. At the time, I assumed he was bitter about losing to Marcel, but no, he won and still had to continue being an arrogant bully. Marcel is an annoying ass, but I'll be fast-forwarding any time Ilan's ugliness comes on my TV.

Cheaters host Joey Greco's stabbing was staged, paid actor says

Andy Dehnart — Tue, 03 Nov 2009 18:10:40 -0500

Cheaters has been on the air for nine years now, documenting scorned lovers confronting their cheating partners in the act, with a camera crew in tow. It's like an episode of Jerry Springer filmed in the cheaters' natural habitats. And the syndicated series is often accused of being fake, particularly since a 2003 episode during which host Joey Greco was stabbed, which to me has never seemed genuine, although some of the early episodes certainly did.

Inside Edition reports today that the stabbing was faked, as was a relationship shown on at least one episode.

This comes seven years after The Houston Press reported basically the same thing: people were hired to pretend to be cheating. The paper cited "five twentysomethings [who] say investigator Danny Gomez paid them $400 to act out phony scenarios that were presented as real on the show." The paper's story is a great piece of journalism and worth a read.

Inside Edition adds to that evidence by reporting that Cari Wyatt "was paid $500 to appear in an episode of Cheaters" and "asked to pretend that she was having a torrid affair with one guy while she was engaged to another," but "never met either man until the day they started shooting and that the whole thing was fake."

"No, it's not real at all. ... I've never been engaged," she said. "They asked us to sit next to the windows, ham it up a little bit, be flirty and touchy, to kiss a couple of times, but we never did, we just faked it."

The tabloid TV show also reports that the stabbing of host Joey Greco on board a boat was faked, reporting that "a Dallas hotel receptionist ... says she was paid $350 for a few days work playing a woman who is caught having an affair with the man," and says that "the ambulance was rented, the blood was fake, and everything was scripted right down to the person who fell off the boat."

Cassandra Terrazas told the show, "It was all set up. They just rented a boat for us and we were supposed to be out like we were fishing and I was supposed to be sunbathing, and then they were going to come up on another boat and catch us."

As further evidence, the show claimed the stabber was arrested by local police, but the Rowlett, Texas, Police Department's spokesperson said, "There were no arrests at all during that time period for that type of crime."

When confronted with that evidence, executive producer and creator Bobby Goldstein (who initially said he was "positive" that everything on the show is real) told Inside Edition, "It was represented to me that this incident actually occurred." Way to carefully word a sentence. He also said, about visiting Greco in the hospital post-stabbing: "My recollection is that he was very pale, very frail, very scared, but he was very courageous. But let me say this, if it was all poppycock, it sure did great in the ratings."

By the People: The Election of Barack Obama doesn't use its behind-the-scenes access well

Andy Dehnart — Tue, 03 Nov 2009 09:18:15 -0500

Good documentaries tell us--and, even better, show us--something we don't already know. This is the problem with By the People: The Election of Barack Obama, which HBO debuts tonight at 9 p.m. ET on the anniversary of Barack Obama's election to the presidency.

Amy Rice and Alicia Sams' film, which is produced by Ed Norton, ends on election night 2008, and offers a solid overview of the entire campaign, and a pretty straightforward examination of Obama's appeal. There's also some tension despite the fact that the climax isn't a surprise. But it tries too much to be comprehensive, and thus doesn't take full advantage of its filmmakers' access.

HBO cites "the behind-the-scenes story" and "all-access pass" of the filmmakers, who started filming Obama two years before his election, and thus were around pre-candidacy, and for moments like Barack Obama's awkward phone calls to Hillary Clinton, never mind more intimate times. In one fantastic scene, Michelle Obama plays dominoes with Sasha and Malia, and then talks to her husband on the phone. In another, Obama tells an aide, "Who thought about doing a college rally at 8:30? That's stupid." We also see him sitting on steps, yawning, while being introduced, and then realizes that he's up, saying, "is that me?"

What works even better, though, are the behind-the-scenes moments with people connected to Obama and the campaign, like his speechwriter, Jon Favreau, and a campaign staffer, Ronnie Cho, who's reactions give the film a lot of its emotional weight. The entire movie is stolen, however, by someone you know if you've seen in the trailer: Lorenzo, age 9, who makes cold calls and has a frustrating conversation with a person who is absurdly dumb.

But there are too few of those moments. There's too much in it that feels familiar, even more than a year later, from rallies to speeches. That's the bulk of the film and, frankly, it's boring and seems repetitive. We saw this version of Barack Obama a lot, and while history may someday need an overview like this, it's time now to learn more.

HBO has one of its brief trailers on YouTube, but if you don't get HBO, you still deserve to meet Lorenzo:
