Martha Stewart fanlisting (owned by my lovely co-mod Moochie)

Aw, hee, thanks for plugging the fanlisting!

I love this show. I don't care what the critics say, I love it. Martha is so much better than The Donald although I'm not quite feeling the Alexis/Charles love just yet. Hopefully, they can emerge to be awesome like Carolyn/George are.

I enjoyed the task of re-writing the fairy tales. That sounds like it'd be a lot of fun to take part in. You know, at first, I thought that the story that Matchstick wrote was too dark and scary for little kids but on second thought, fairy tales ARE scary. I mean, the original Hansel and Gretl had the witch woman thing trying to eat Hansel! I don't think you can really fault the teams for the scary factor.

I would have written more in my original post but i haven't seen it yet. I just wanted to get a thread started for it. I'll be back for when I've seen it.

I like watching Martha so much better than Trump!! I also am not too sure about Alexis/Charles. They dont do much for me yet. I found it very strange that Charles knew one of the girls and later the girl said she dated his son! Seems too coincedental.

I loved that task with the fariytales. I thought it was funny that the kids loved when the guy read to them. And yes, many fairytales do have the scary factor. Even nursery rhymes. I read them to my kids and sometimes think...wow, that sounds horrible, someone's head popped off or someone's eyes got poked out! But maybe if they are worded right it sounds more funny than scary to a kid.

I liked this show a lot. It's similar enough to the original but it's different because Martha is different (and more likeable). I liked the task a lot. It was fun and interesting. I hope they continue to be.

The creative PM deserved to be fired. He was too much of a control freak, making decisions right and left without listening to input from the others. It's one thing to take charge, it's another to do things your own way just because.

I liked Chuck. I'm sorry he's gone. I don't like many of his team members. Jim is so over the top that I'm not sure he's not acting. Physically he reminds me of Judd from Real World San Francisco.

Everyone probably already knows this but they've moved the show from 7:00 central to 8:00 central. I guess it wasn't doing very well where it was.

Ugh. All I can say is if my reward for winning was to go and eat desserts with Donald Trump I'd be annoyed.

As soon as the girl said "fake it 'til you make it" and it cut to Martha's glare, I knew she was a goner. The wedding cakes would have been fun to design. That pink bow cake looked horrible all off center. The 'boat' or 'cruise ship' wasn't a popular style. Maybe if they had it centered and not pink they could have sold at least one.

I like their tasks, but I still find it hard to remember who is who. It was strange to hear the guy who's wife just had a baby, all sweet on the phone.

I didn't like the pink bow cake at all. The other one was nicer.

I would be furious if my husband missed the birth of our child for a reality TV show, even if it could lead to a job with Martha Stewart.
