Sunday Night TV

The Oscars:

The sound effect orchestra was wicked awesome.

You'd think after four hours, I'd have more to say.

But I don't.

The Amazing Race:
The old guys got eliminated, which is good, because I think one of them would have died if they stayed on much longer.

The lady with the little person (Charla Schmirna?) had a full on attack of crazy, throwing her worldly possessions at some poor, befuddled cab driver.

Kentucky still haven't learned that alliances don't work, although I was pleasently surprised when Mary came up with a clever strategy for solving the boardroom puzzle. Of course, she pretty much blew it by announcing her answer in a loud, clear voice to the security guard.
She definitely needs some lessons in sneaky.

This episode was pretty good, with lots of jockeying for first as planes were delayed, the racers faced difficult puzzles and tasks, failed their clue reading comprehension, got lost, stuck, nearly run over and threw hissy fits.

The previews for next week promise much more drama and fun, as Danielle has a nervous breakdown over fish.

It is that bringing out the worst in humans that I dont really like. That is so not the Amazon Way!!

Bringing out the worst? I think that pretty much belongs to "The Apprentice."
Besides, alot of times they help each other, and most of the amazing race is really based on who can navigate the challenges the best.
