MadTV’s tenth season opener, which airs tonight on Fox, features a sketch called “The Amazing Presidential Race” with guests Mirna and Charla from CBS’s The Amazing Race. The TiVo is set. Say it with me one last time: “Hurry up, Charla!”
But speaking of Fox, Thom’s and my semi-guilty pleasure is The Complex: Malibu, which I found out about on Fredo‘s blog. Couples compete by renovating rooms in a beachfront condo complex, which are then judged according to how much value they add to the building. Brad and Lew, the gay couple, who had been winning each week so far, were finally “evicted” on yesterday’s episode. Guess we’ll keep watching, if only to see Barney and Rose (a.k.a. Archie and Edith Bunker) get their comeuppance.

“Hurry up, Charla!”.
I miss them–and Colin makes me violently ill. 🙂
Ugh! I haven’t been keeping up with the Complex, but I’m surprised Barney and Rose haven’t been evicted yet….
No, I tell a lie. I think keeping them around probably ensures an easy win for whichever couple is left.
