Five Drinks Into Reality TV: Survivor Caramoan Finale and Reunion

Tom's Take:

Congratulation Cochran. It was a well deserved victory, although I do think Dawn had a valid case for the win. But Cochran was the one calling the shots at the end, and he did fully deserve the win.

Five Drinks Into Reality TV: Survivor Season 26 Episode 13 "Don't Talk About My Mother"

Tom's Take:

The family episode. Am I the only who doesn't tear up at these. Maybe I'm just a heartless bastard.

I did almost tear up for Brenda. Jesus Christ that was brutal. Wow.

Five Drinks Into Reality TV: Big Brother Canada Finale

Tom's Take

Five Drinks Into Reality TV: Survivor Season 26 Episode 12 "Beginning of the End"

Tom's Take:

Wow. Somehow this episode turned into another great one. This was a great time for a double elimination. Just wow.

Five Drinks Into Reality TV: Big Brother Canada Week 9 Game and Show

Tom's Take:

So Andrew got screwed by trusting the true Showmance. Yeah. Saw that coming.

Five Drinks Into Reality TV: Survivor Season 26 Episode 11 "Come over to the Dark Side"

Tom's Take:

Malcolm for Fan Favorite!

Ugh... but Cochran is probably a lock for it.

And could there be a Malcolm vs. Cochran season in the future?

Five Drinks Into Reality TV: Big Brother Canada Game and Show Week 8

Tom's Take:

This was a tough week for me. My favorite player got voted out, and Gary returned to the game. Lame. Still I think the game is still pretty open, even though the showmances are the clear favorites, Andrew or Talla could still pull a string of comps together for a win.

Five Drinks Into Reality TV: Survivor Season 26 Episode 10 "One Zipped Over the Cuckoo's Nest"

Tom's Take:

This was the third episode in the row that really delivered. If the rest of the season is like this than this season could still be a top 5 season.

Five Drinks Into Reality TV: Big Brother Game and Show Week 7

Tom's Take:

I am disgusted by the twist. They shouldn't bring people back. They got voted out! Ugh. I'm now rooting for Emmett and Jillian, just because I don't want the twist to screw up their game.

Five Drinks Into Reality TV: Survivor Season 26 Episode 9 "Cut the Head off the Snake"

Tom's Take:

Are we at Jury yet? This episode was crazy. Just crazy. I loved it.

Five Drinks Into Reality TV: Big Brother Canada Game and Show Week 6

Tom's Take:

This was a great week of Big Brother featuring the downfall of the Shield and the house splitting into an East vs. West battle. I'm rooting for the West, but let's face it, the East is playing the better game. Let's get to it.

Five Drinks Into Reality TV: Survivor Season 26 Episode 8 "Blindside Time"

Tom's Take:

A great episode! Even though this episode proves me wrong by cutting out the Malcolm/Corinne alliance, and giving rise to Dawn 's awakening.

Five Drinks Into Reality TV: Big Brother Canada Game and Show Week 5

Tom's Take:

This week was a consequence of the Canadian Power Shift. A bad player got to stay two extra weeks, but she contributed nothing to the game and was quite frankly an annoyance to the show. But we can move on now, although unfortunately  we've got feed blocks ruining what should be the most interesting weekend of the game so far. Shame on BB Canada for absolutely sucking on these twists so far

Five Drinks Into Reality TV: Survivor Season 26 Episode 7 "Tubby Lunch Box"

Tom's Take:

The Butchery continues in what has been quite frankly a boring season...

Five Drinks Into Reality TV: Big Brother Game and Show Week 4

Tom's Take:

This was a great week for the game that proved you don't need a freaking twist to create drama. You just need people with social interactions and jealousy to create drama. Also, Tom got evicted! Woooh!

Five Drinks Into Reality TV: Survivor Season 26 Episode 6 "Operation Thunder Dome"

Tom's Take:

The game shifted this week, but not for the better. The Favorites were crushing the Fans, and now....They're just flat out embarrassing them. Now we don't even have fun competitions. It's just going to be a massacre.

Five Drinks Into British TV: Doctor Who Series 6

Tom's Take:

So the first half of Series 6 of Doctor Who was so good that I honestly thought it would be my favorite series of the show. Then it stumbled somewhat, and so now I would have trouble saying it's better than Series Four, but the last three series have been better than the first three and I am looking forward to finally catching up with the rest of the world and watching Series 7 of Doctor Who.

Five Drinks Into Reality TV: Big Brother Canada Game and Show Week 3

Tom's Take:

This week actually sucked, and ultimately the twist of Canada having a veto lead to a boring eviction that kept Suzette, my least favorite player in the game. That's a backfire if ever there was one.

Five Drinks Into Reality TV: Survivor Season 26 Episode 5 "Persona Non Grata"

Tom's Take:

 Jesus, this episode was a travesty. Survivor needs a tribe swap because I am sick of where the season is right now. This episode was more like an episode of Jerry Springer than Survivor, and Brandon's insanity had NOTHING to do with the game. That's not to say it was not entertaining, but I like the GAMEPLAY

Five Drinks Into British Television: Doctor Who Series 5

Tom's Take:

Wow. I am surprised how much I liked this series. Is it as good as Series 4? I'm going to tentatively say no, but this is Matt Smith's first season as the Doctor, and he accomplished the most important task he had. He made it so that I didn't regret losing David Tennant. That's not to take anything away from David Tennant and the Tenth Doctor, but it is a testament to how well this series did to help me move on.  Good work Matt Smith, I don't hate you, and with such big shoes to fill it would have been very easy for me to.
