The leopard print calm before the storm…

Thai Lady Gaga Flash Mob – It’s 2009 all over again!  Ah, Thailand. Where exotic spices flavor the air (or is that the Thai stick?), ladyboys populate the backrooms, and the coconut water flows like, well, water. And where comeuppance is a dish best served cold – or hot for that matter. Who the hell [...]

  Paddy cake, paddy cake…  Well, it happened kids! Finally! And it almost didn’t happen (I’m looking at you, Nicole…)! SPOILER ALERT! Ding dong, the witch is dead! Jenna was retired in Thailand. God, Jenna made me tired. Do we really think she just got the bitch edit or was she really, you know, a [...]

The showdown we’ve all been waiting for!

Last week Gary went home. Boo. We liked Gary. Unfortunately the actual weak link of the team (starts with a L and rhymes with LIZ!) had immunity, so it was Ciao to our funny, happy guy. We begin in Florence where the teams find their newest clue. The teams shall remain the same. Neither Jenna [...]

Nookie is sad he never learned any Italian Hello Platers! This week is all about Parmigiano-Reggiano, tortellini, and Bologna (the place, not the Oscar Meyer’s). The teams stay the same for this next leg, much to the chagrin of Jenna and Liz. In fact on the car trip to Modena, Jenna berates Liz so completely [...]

Last season on True Blood, a whole lot of shit went down.  Let’s see if I can cover it as quickly as the “Previously, on True Blood” summation did: That chick from the Authority, Nan, named Bill King of Louisiana Apparently, the sun isn’t the ONLY thing that causes wrinkles. Sookie found out she’d been [...]

Love. Her. Ribollita! Ricotta (non)cheese! Bacci ball! Cat’s crazy backteased hair! You guessed it, Gasmii, we are in Italy! The reshuffled teams board the plane to Florence and are sent on the chase for the E.I. Zany stereotypical American tourist running around ensues.  American reality shows making the US of A proud for over a [...]

Previously, on Duets: I cried when I realized this one person I respect immensely, Forget the stellar musicianship and charming personality, look at that BEAUTIFUL SKIN!!! these two people I appreciate for their talent, GIRL POWER! and this guy, I wonder if he really is “thicke”? who is still overcompensating for this: Canadian Dad of [...]

This is my favorite Moroccon Mix!  First of all, I owe EVERYONE an apology.  I misspoke concerning last week’s episode in the comments.  I called a commenter a bad word.  I am sorry for that.  We recappers work pretty hard to get these stories out to you and sometimes we take things a little too [...]

Something smells fishy… The jokes write themselves, folks!    Song starts at 1:20… Wow, I just used a reference to a Sondheim song for my recap of a cooking show on Bravo. Doesn’t get much gayer than that, kids. Sorry for the delay, you guys, but I made it before show day!  Hope you guys [...]

Cat – where do you keep disappearing to? I’m now convinced that Bravo reads TVGasm. (Hi Andy!) My main complaint last week was that none of these people were very likable – and sure enough, this week I started liking a couple of them! (Hi Nicole! Hi Avery and her cute daughters! Hi Nick!) On [...]

Welcome back to the Guidice car, and The Real Housewives of New Jersey. The stench of pork and sweat practically permeates through the television screen. And the anger…oh my, the Brown Smurf is not in a very friendly mood at all. He has transitioned to full on hatred for everyone Teresa is related to. Or [...]

  Real Housewives of New Jersey bruiser Caroline knows how to make her children feel loved. Well, her male children at least. To hear good ole mom tell it, her penisless offspring is a fat unlovable whiner who couldn’t get anyone other than her handsome-ish brother to take her to Junior Prom. Caroline Manzo has [...]

Uh-oh … our opening montage is a combo of Paul Simon’s Home with slo-mo videos of the Final Three performing in their hometowns.  I never realized how ugly all three of them look while singing until AI slowed down the footage for me.  Thanks for that!  Also, what’s with the pirate map they keep flashing [...]

Do we like any of these people?

  This  … is Episode THIRTY-SEVEN of Season 11?  Holy Shitballs!  This “reality” show needs to self-edit, although all the ad money from the extra episodes DOES pay J-Lo millions so she can dress like this. Blue Light Special in Ladies’ Sportswear This … opening reminds me vaguely of my two-photos-in-one third grade picture (and [...]

  Just keep your mouth shut next time, Jenna After last week’s education in the finer points of English gastropub delights, the show classes things up significantly by traveling to Lyon, France to explore its particular type of cuisine. The two teams are tested on their knowledge of cheeses, wines, and the finer points of [...]

Good evening pretties and welcome to a quick update of the Real Housewives of New Jersey. The dramas are coming fast and furious! THE SOLSTICE PARTY has now joined the club. And based on the events of this week, we will now have THE POOL PARTY in the mix. Also making a brief cameo this [...]

PottyMouth and Flipit join forces for the season finale! Join in!

OK, you guys. Ready to go around the world? In 80 plates? Does that title make any sense whatsoever? Firstly, let’s discuss the ridiculous amount of cooking shows on the boob tube right now. Top Chef, Top Chef Masters, Iron Chef (original and America), Chopped, Food Network Star, Rachel Ray (all 10 of her shows), [...]

So The Amazing Race meets Top Chef on ‘roids?

Looking at baby names from T&T all in one place is as scary as you thought it would be.

You can’t get better than this!

Without passive aggression, the entire Housewives franchise would die a swift death.

Welcome to the season premiere of Real Housewives of New Jersey! Why bother petending this is new stuff? We just pick up right where we left off – at last year’s reunion, right in the thick of the Where’s Jacqee? crisis. We’re reminded that Jacquee is a “bad place emotionally” and it’s all because of Teresa. In case you’re [...]

Never forget the Patio Poodle!   This recap/review/analysis could go one of several ways: 1) Do I LOVE it, without criticism? Talk up the show’s very cool twists and turns? Praise the performances? Admire SMG’s general loveliness? Give a thumbs up to the sheer brilliance of the costume department? 2) Do I call BULLSHIT? I’m [...]

NeNe Rage!!!

  Prelude to a Finale – “It’s Called Improvising, Bitch!”   Oh RINGER. You low down, dirty dog. You cruel, cruel mistress. When we began this tryst, I thought you were fun, different. Yes, you were a drama queen, but you could also be silly and weren’t afraid to laugh at yourself. But then things [...]

Mocking the future of the Housewives.

Ragging on Alicia from Survivor, one tweet at a time.

Two points of business before we launch into the details of “If You’re Just An Evil Bitch, Then Get Over It”. (HAHAHA!) #1 – Just realized Shaylene Briggs is the mother from Awkward. She is put to MUCH better use on that show and is still very very cute. #2 – Do you think this [...]

Watch

LET’S KILL BRIDGET!  - Umm, ok??? Does anyone remember the movie Let’s Scare Jessica To Death? It came out in the 70’s, I do believe, and it was always on TV when I was growing up. It’s about a group of friends that turn on this girl and basically drive her crazy. Wow, that was [...]

What the hell is this picture?  Just found it.  Is this Bridg in her strippin’ days? In any case, I love it.   We are now getting down to the wire in the saga of Bridget and Siobhan. “That Woman’s Never Been A Victim in Her Entire Life” is episode 18 of 22. Considering a [...]

The winner will SHOCK you.

Tabs’ superpowers are bested by the evil that is Tanya.

      The chickens are coming home to roost – finally! So the big question this week is: Is Hubs really the demonic psycho the show has portrayed him to be over the last 2 weeks? Or has the lighting department just been upset with him? OR is Ioan off his meds? Lets find [...]

Laziest finale in Project Runway HIIIISTORRRRYYYY!

Greetings Gasmii!  Apple Pie here, standing in for Potty Mouth this week.  I apologize for the tardy recap, and I apologize in advance for my bitterness and cynicism toward this show; I haven’t watched it on a regular basis since Emma was still Sheriff McHottiePants’s deputy. Welcome to another episode of ABC’s new iteration of [...]
