The Amazing Race 13: Episode 10 Predictions
On Sunday’s new episode of The Amazing Race 13, the teams will remain in Moscow, Russia for their penultimate leg. Moscow, last Sunday, proved to be a difficult city to get around in, not to mention incredibly expensive. Hundred dollar cab rides? Really? The language barrier was equally trying, and made life incredibly difficult... »
Danny Brown Exits Survivor Gabon
Here’s what led to G.C. all but begging to leave the game: Elephant in the Room: At bountiful Kota, Bob brings back fish to the tribe (freshly caught in their reward-challenge nets) and ends up shocking the group, literally, with an electric fish. At rice-poor Fang, the tribe’s spirits are momentarily uplifted by the... »
Survivor’s Big Reveal
Average folks don’t always look so fab in their dirty underwear. But Survivor: Gabon’s Marcus is an obvious exception to this season’s nothing-but-the-clothes-off-your-backs wardrobe constraints. Even Charlie, his tribemate and an openly gay lawyer from NYC, can’t stop drooling over the boxer-clad hetero Harvard grad. Alas, poor Marcus caused quite a flap in the show’s... »

The Parents Television Council filed an indecency complaint with the Federal Communications Commission against an episode of Survivor: Gabon that featured a brief glimpse of a contestant’s penis. The PTC encouraged its members to follow suit and file their own complaints. CBS countered that it was both fleeting and inadvertent. The PTC cited the Sept. 25... »
Survivor Gabon Censors Missed Marcus’ Penis But We Didn’t!
The censors somehow managed to miss contestant Marcus’ wang poking out of his boxer shorts during the premiere of Survivor Gabon on Thursday. Marcus’ penis made its appearance while he was running towards big yellow balls for the last challenge. Also to blame is the new technology “HD” which allows you to see... »
