"Celebrity Poker Showdown: 'Pocket aces? Fold.'"
Apparently I have an obligation to do this. So, even though I spent most of the second hour flipping over to Kevin & Drew's rebirth on Discovery (which, for giving the Festers a new home, has won my tiny fraction of a ratings point), I'm starting the thread anyway. Why? Because I can. And because it gave me a chance to mention K&D on Discovery, which y'all should really be watching. Pity about that lousy time slot, but...

Anyway -- the game.

1. $50 chips? Why? Are they planning on going to three-hour specials next season? Is the pot slowly working its way down to penny chips just to give a short-stack the chance to hold back one last cent, then double up twenty-two times?
2. Goodbye, Evil Willie. (They let him keep the chip? Genuine fake silver isn't cheap, you know.) I'm actually glad that ridiculous streak of luck didn't follow him into this game. Nothing against him, but watching Mr. Applegate hanging around the audience was just disturbing.
3. While it looked like everyone had at least a vague idea of how to play this week, watching people consistently fold on the best hand started to get annoying. Of course, the only times people called on what they thought were bluffs, they got wrenched out of their socks. Right, Jerry? (What was he thinking? Was he thinking? Anyone?)
4. Note to the production staff: never, ever show anyone speaking into the card camera again. It's just not a flattering angle.
5. Worst. Tattoos. Ever. (Evil Willie. You had to ask?)
6. Did I mention that Kevin & Drew were funny?

I thought the show was pretty entertaining for a change.

Dave Navarro played great and was more engaging than I thought he would be.

Evil Willie did not win again - yay!

Jennie Garth looked great but didn't really have a clue.

I knew Jerry would go out first- way over-confident.

Richard Kind is so irritating! And you're right about the wierd upside-down looking into the card camera shot- aaagghh!!! my eyes!!! my eyes!!!

Holy cow. I thought Angie was dead.


The order of Banana delivery should be organized by location to save on shipping costs.

I have to admit that seeing Jerry call a $9200 all-in with ACE HIGH was mind boggling! I'm not sure what justification anyone could come up with for that. Did he think Dave was bluffing with less than nothing? That was what was so odd, Dave could have been bluffing with say an Ace-Jack and still won. That's why the call made NO SENSE!

I'll also admit that I too lose interest in the show rather easily. Last night, I was watching baseball tonight for most of the second hour.
