PLEASE NOTE: The Reality TV World Message Boards are filled with desperate
attention-seekers pretending to be one big happy PG/PG13-rated family. Don't
be fooled. Trying to get everyone to agree with you is like herding cats,
but intolerance for other viewpoints is NOT welcome and respect for other
posters IS required at all times. Jump in and play, and you'll soon find out
how easy it is to fit in, but save your drama for your mama. All members are
encouraged to read the
complete guidelines.
As entertainment critic Roger
Ebert once said, "If you disagree with something I write, tell me so, argue
with me, correct me--but don't tell me to shut up. That's not the American way."

And for some amplification: I would love to write another summary for TAR. I promise wit, humor, comedy, synonyms and maybe a little bit of onomatopeia (provided the racers CRASH into things - and we know they will).

Well, I haven't done a TAR review yet, although I once got kicked out of the plane to do a BB premier review (it's fun rereading after writing it!). Here, I'd request the Final Five episode summary leading to the Final 4 (or a non-elim!).

Works for me. By that point, I'll either be far enough into my novel (NaNoWriMo), that I'll need a break, or I'll have realized it's futile to try and finish in November.

18. "I may need backup" |
I don't know what's going on with my DTV, but I may need a backup for the summary, just in case, next week.I recorded TAR last night, while watching it. About halfway through I got a call that I needed to take. Rather than pause I let the show continue to run. When I was finished with the call (about 15 minutes into Cold Case, which was not being recorded), I went to watch the rest of TAR. The list showed that it had recorded a full hour, just as it should have. But, when I played back the recording, it ran only until they got to the first airport - well before the point that I'd taken the call - and switched, on the recording, to Cold Case in real time. No more TAR. WTH? Simultaneously with TAR I was recording the 2-hr. EHM. When I went to watch those, the first hour recorded just fine. The second hour cut off after 12 minutes. Again, WTH? Nothing else was set to record during these time slots, and I wasn't trying at any point to watch a third show. I have no clue what happened or why I lost these recordings. It has never happened before, but it makes me fear what will happen if it does it again next week. If it does, my summary is screwed (scrod?). If anyone is willing to wait in the wings just in case disaster strikes twice I would appreciate it. Thanks. (Oh, and if anyone can explain what happened, and why, I'd appreciate that, too.)

I forgot to ask this in the bar last night: Can you (now have you) call the company that the DVR/DTV is coming from? Maybe they experienced problems at that exact time....... especially since both programs carpped out at similar times.............

Thanks Seana. I'll give a shout if it screws up again.vince: No, they aren't reporting any problems. Icey: I recorded similarly last night without an issue. I'm doing it tonight, too. So far, so good. No clue what happened or why, so I'll just keep my fingers crossed. I've been manga'd by Slice

We definitely need a summary writer for next week. It'll be the penultimate episode, and a team's about to lose all their possesions, and may not be able to continue in the race, even if they somehow manage to finish in the F3.........

You are correct. Two episodes left. cahaya gets the finale... and *points up* you have 2 volunteers above you for the 11/30 episode.From TVGuide.com: CBS Sun, Nov 30 8:00 PM You're Gonna Get Me Killed The teams compete in Moscow on the 10th leg of the race. CBS Sun, Dec 7 8:00 PM You Look Like Peter Pan In the 13th-season finale, the remaining teams travel from Moscow to Portland, Oregon...

I think Icey should have final say, for tradition's sake, but dajaki's qualified. Mjames is not. Remember for both TAR and Survivor, we used to have a rule that you had to summarize something else first........ I think that's still active.

This week has been a little too crazy, and I'm definitely not gonna get my summary up before the penultimate episode, that Icey has volunteered to summarize, will air. I have started the summary, and I'm almost to the Detour. I will strive to get the summary up by late Monday, Tuesday at the latest.Sorry for the inconvenience.
