Reality Bites Again

I almost forgot to watch "Reality Bites Back" this week. Too much reality, I guess. However, Comedy Central had a marathon today, so I got to catch the most recent episode. It turns out there is one more after this one. I'll try to remember to watch it on Thursday.

This latest installment was called "The Amazing Disgrace" and featured a race through LA. I actually enjoyed this episode. There wasn't anything too disgusting and some of it was actually amusing. Doing charades of porn movie titles, for example. There was also a bit about one team member being locked in a toilet and the other having to do math problems to get the combination required to let him out.

Mo was teamed with his brother, Amy with her sister and Theo partnered with a friend. Theor and friend came in first. The brothers did not do well and came in last place. There was a silly "Deal or No Deal" moment where the two last teams, Amy's and Mo's, had to pick a case to decide who would stay. In the end, it was Amy who earned the other spot for the final episode.

It looks like the final episode will be a "Survivor" send-up and that all the contestants are coming back. Probably to vote for who wins. At this point, I'm starting to think the whole thing is fixed and scripted. Isn't it interesting that the two most attractive contestants are left? I can't complain. Amy has been my favorite all along, more because she was the only one I'd seen before than her cuteness.

One more week to go. I don't feel the suspense I do at the end of "Survivor". I really don't care who wins this comedy show while I always have a favorite on "Survivor". Still, I'm interested enough to tune in for the "Reality Bites Back" finale.
