Bad breaks? Do explain.

And neither Anderson and Karn were nominated either (not that their hosting was worthy of such to begin with), but like someone else mentioned, outside of Barker and TPiR, Fremantle hasn't submitted ANY of their hosts or shows for nomination.

Applying makeup with a spackling knife is now considered "outstanding"?[/quote]
For that matter, cooking with pre-made materials is also considered "outstanding"?

Ah, ya know, it's not like I've never opened a can of mushrooms before. I just don't base a whole cooking show that my spouse bought for me around it.

/Anyone else think of Sandra Lee when they watch this ad?
//since when is "streetrat" a synonym for "batshiat"?

That's the first time I've seen that ad. I lol'd hard.

/Yeah, that's Sandra to a T

Sandra : "Today , we're going to make soup. I start with a can of Campbell's"....

I'm honestly not too familiar with her except that she's on the Food Network, but damn do I want some Jack in the Box now. But from all the accounts I've read, I guess that's a good thing.

Oops, yes, but you'll note that my comment was directed at the quote I intended to make (and have now fixed; thank you for the catch) in the first place.

Enh. It's just okay. Certainly nothing I would go out of my way for, and no way no how on an echelon with White Castle. It's *not* destination fast-food in the same way In-N-Out or Chick-Fil-A might be.

Which of course can't hold a steamed onion to Krystal.  But in Michigan I take what I can get.  Just had ten White Castles for lunch yesterday.

The nearest Chick-Fil-A is about an hour or so away, in the student union building of a Detroit-area university.  And yes, I've made the trip just to have lunch.

And the drive would be well-worth it. Thankfully, I have two within five minutes of my house. Not that I'm bragging or anything. :-)

/I forgot Whataburger...Norfolk needs one of those too

I think Janice Pennington should be given a Lilfetime Acheivement award for being a game show model for decades, and still looked beautiful til the day she was fired!

Fixed that for ya.

I'm happy Howie got nominated as a traditional game show host this time; he previously got nominated for the first-ever Reality TV Host Emmy, which was won by Jeff Probst. Maybe the syndicated "Deal or No Deal"  will get nominated for Outstanding Game Show next year.

Two places I really want to try soon.
