Amie Stuart ~ On the Back Porch

I’m doing some character descriptions over at SFC today just for fun!

Otherwise it was a quiet weekend. I wrote and finished up 24 season 5.

We had our RWA meeting this week–Candace Havens came and spoke and as usual she’s incredibly motivating!!!!!!
How was your weekend?

PS for my Battlestar Gallactica friends last night was boring, but more importantly, let’s talk about Kara. (more…)

Or my midweek TV recap.

AI–the boys had no YO factor. The girls had YO Factor in spades. I already left my predictions at Karin T’s but I think Hillary and Antonella are OUT. They definitely have no YO factor. I really enjoyed Gina’s performance. It was nice to see something different on the show. I missed the first 15 minutes of the boys, but I’d say Sanjaya and Sundance are OUT. Maybe Jared instead of one of them–he’s cute as a bug but he’s got no YO factor either.

I haven’t watched LOST so no spoilers please.

I watched Battlestar Gallactica on Monday night (the first 20 minutes) then read over at Jenny R’s blog that Starbuck died!!!!!!! Gaaaaaaaa I had to find out! She did, indeed, die. I honestly don’t think (unless there’s some contract scuffle I don’t know about going on) she’s really dead. I think she’s a Cylon!!!!!! Weeeeeeeeee

Prison Break and Heros-we’re being forced to go WEEKS with no new episodes after being left hanging and would someone kill Sylar already (damn you Suresh for your soft damned old heart!). PB ROCKED! It just gets better and better –and tomorrow they’re apparently filming near MIk’s job. Too bad I can’t take off work. I honestly thought that the president would get assassinated before she could make the announcement and that recording–OH MY GOSH! The Prez is a FREAK!!!!!!!

PB and HEROS definitely have YO factor. So what’s the YO for you?

Also….I’m taking suggestions here for Monday!  

This week I’m going to be discussing all the ways you can fry chicken.  Let’s start with the basics.

Go out back and get a chicken.  Chop it’s head off, drain the blood and pluck it.

Once you’ve done that, come back and I’ll tell you what’s next (May)

Anyone care to take a guess as to who’s gonna get the boot tonight?

Girls: Alaina Alexander (thin reedy voice), Haley Scarnato (something about her bugs me–i think the judges comment last week about her cabaret’ness is correct–IMO she doesn’t stand out much. I think it goes back to that performer/singer thing). And/or Antonella Barba (I’ve heard some gossip about her too )–she was better but it goes back to that singer/performer thing for her also. I know that’s three but I’m pretty convinced it’ll be two of these three.

Guys: AJ, Sanjaya, Brandon, Nick and Jared–I think it could be any of those five. I’d HATE to see Brandon voted off–he’s way talented but he’s going to be lucky if his performance the other night didn’t do him more harm than good. The sentiment was good, so he might get the chick vote. I still can’t believe Sanjaya was in the top four last week. His performance was interesting but…I dunno. He’s got potential but he needs to hone his skills. Nick and AJ just don’t stand out to me much, Jared’s real close in there too. If I had to pick two, I’d say AJ and *sob* Brandon.
