Survivor: Gabon – Feng Suffered Another Loss
The Feng tribe once again suffered another night at the Tribal Council. What circumstance had lead them into another loss? Who was eliminated last night? This questions are going to be answered here on our recap of Survivor: Gabon.
On Day 16 of the tribes’ stay on the island of Gabon, the Feng tribe struggled to survive. Ace and Matty decided to have a mini alliance on their midst due to the degradation of their tribe. The Feng tribe is also arguing on the amount of rice that need to be consume by each member because their supply is fast depleting. Ace told Sugar that the other members have gone through her bag and saw the immunity idol and impulsively she gave the idol to Ace, which I think is a huge mistake on her part. At Kota, the tribe’s unity is beginning to crumble cause some of the members commented that Dan is eating too much. Well, let see what will be the consequences of this in days that will follow.
At the Reward Challenge, giving them pastries and coffee to go after the Kota tribe won once against snatching another victory from the helpless Feng tribe. Sugar was sent to exile again by Kota while the Feng tribe go back on the place again empty handed. After the challenge, the members of Kota tribe seem to be arguing again on the allocation of food to each member. Randy decided to distance himself to Dan, because of the latter impression to the others, eating too much.

Gossip Girl Author Disagrees With Jessica’s Depiction
Gossip Girl author Cecily von Ziegesar says producer Josh Schwartz and his crew have been spot-on even though adaptations from page to screen can be quite difficult.
She tells MTV.com, “I’m a very faithful watcher… Generally I’m entertained and I think it’s great.” However, Von Ziegesar does see something unusual for the Gossip Girl TV series, its their depiction of the TV version of Vanessa, played by Jessica Szohr.
“I think Vanessa is one character they ruined,” she says. “In the book, she’s kick-ass and has a shaved head and wears lots of black. I think a lot of the readers who don’t usually read teen fiction identify with Vanessa,” In the show, Vanessa has more of a bohemian hipster look.
The author clarifies that it has nothing to do with Szohr, adding: “I just wish Vanessa was like she is in the books a bit more.”

Amazing Race 13 finished the 3rd leg of the rest last Sunday. Destination of the racers: Bolivia.

The first pair to depart from Fortaleza to La Paz, Bolivia was Ken and Tina. All teams depart through one of the two planes which left at the same time. Bolivia is a high altitude country and because of this the team players had a hard time breathing when they arrived at La Paz.

The Ex List Shouldn’t Work – but it does!
I like the Ex List! Cool and hip – the Ex List works as a cutting edge big network comedy without a studio audience dumbing it down.
 |
The Ex List star Elizabeth Reaser shines as Bella Bloom, a smart yet quirky flower shop owner that is in search of the “one” that got away.
A psychic taunted her by telling her she’d only get married if she finds her EX and does it in the next year. |
Perfect food for the writers to bring us many zany antics like you’d expect from a network comedy. This one really works though as it not only is funny but it takes themes that usually don’t make it onto network shows and puts them at the forefront.
For example in the season opener, the pilot, we see BElla’s friend is distraight because she shaved her beaver bald (showed it to Bella onscreen) and her fiancee doesn’t like it. Apparently he likes hairy pubic areas and there is friction between the 2 lovers… Sorry to be dirty… but that’s the kind of bleeding edge stuff you’ll see on the show. That’s good!
In fact, I’d go so far as to say this is the most refreshing comedy to show up on network tv since Action with Jay Mohr.
