The Vampire Diaries Season 2 Predictions

After a summer full of some spoilers, hints, in depth discussions and interviews, there is plenty to talk about when it comes to predictions for the sophomore season of "The Vampire Diaries".

1. Katherine

Katherine, who was stabbing Uncle John in the kitchen as Elena waltzes into the house at the end of last season cliffhanger, is obviously going to be one of the main focuses of this season, including more of her history in 1864 and prior. However, there are a few questions that I have to ask, which will decide the direction of the season.

The first one, is how are Stefan and Damon going to deal with Katherine's return? It will definitely cause some chaos between them and Elena, that's for sure. I think we can all agree that Stefan will have the most strength to ward her off, and not give into her temptations. But, considering the downfall that Stefan had with human blood at the end of Season 1, can we honestly say that he will remain in control around her? Damon is a completely other issue. It's clear that he hasn't worked out his feelings for Katherine or Elena yet. I think he wants to be angry at Katherine, and does feel the sting of her betrayal. But when he has her back in his arms this season, as we already knows happens in the premiere tomorrow night, will that sting be as prominent? And what will be his reaction when she says she came back for Stefan and not him? He is going to be angry, we know that. However, with some recent information revealed about tomorrow night's cliffhanger, apparently Katherine is going to push him to do some kind of "evil act", that will make the audience revert back to seeing him as a tortured villain and not a struggling hero, as it seemed he was turning into at the end of last season. I don't know if this means he is going to kill someone, or not. If he does, it can't just be anyone. We have also found out that someone we know is going to be turned into a vampire this season, and apparently in episode 1, there is going to be a big game changer. Whatever Damon's anger towards Katherine is going to force him to do, it's going to be big.

Other question revolving around Katherine is why did she come to Mystic Falls to begin with? Whatever that answer is, I know it's going to have to do with why she came back this time. She says in the premiere, that she came back for Stefan, but knowing Katherine, I don't think that's her plan at all. Something else is going on. I have a feeling that it's going to have something to do with the other supernatural beings in the town. Either Bonnie, the werewolfs/Lockwoods, or something else.

I have a sick feeling that it's going to be her that divides the town, as we are told happens in the Season 2 synopsis. She is going to be responsible for revealing the supernatural nature of some of the families in the town, and everyone is going to be at each others throats, and the two characters that are going to be thrown under the bus are Bonnie and Damon.

There was one very long skype chat a couple months ago, where we brainstormed reasons Katherine and Pearl arrived in Mystic Falls to begin with. I believe what we all agreed on was that it is Pearl that turned her, and they have been around since the Colonies, and that Mystic Falls has been a breeding ground for the supernatural since the beginning. This idea really goes all the way back to the books. In the novels, Fell's Church sits on a number of crossing ley lines, and because of that energy, supernatural forces and beings have always been drawn to the area. It would make sense that that is why all the vampires in 1864 seemed to migrate there. The Lockwoods, a family of werewolves settled there. And even the Bennetts, witches that fled the Salem Witch Trials in the 1600's came to Mystic Falls. It would make it less of a coincidence that all these super beings tend to end up in this one little town.

Did Mystic Falls begin as a settlement for vampires? Is that why Pearl and the tomb vampires were so insistent on getting "their town" back?

2. The Lockwoods aka the werewolves

Fans of the books knew that Tyler and the Lockwoods have a history of being werewolves, and considering the hints here and there throughout season 1, we knew it would be revealed eventually, just not in the IN YOUR FACE way it was done it the season 1 finale. In the books, the Lockwoods were not a big part, but it's clear that they will be in the series. With the death of Mayor Lockwood, Mystic Falls welcomes back his brother, Mason Lockwood (Taylor Kinney). Now, we are all assuming that Mason knows about the history of the Lockwoods and will be there to help Tyler through the transformation process, which we are told, will be very violent.

What kind of relationship will there be between Tyler and Mason? I don't think it's going to be a very good one right from the beginning. Tyler is going to be angry and scared. He is going to lash out at people. And because of everything he will be going through this season, he will need at least one person to confide in. But the question is, will it be Bonnie, Matt or Jeremy? I would really like it to be Matt, seeing as how Matt is one of the only main characters that doesn't know what's really going on in the town. I want to see their friendship again. I would also like to see a friendship between Tyler and Jeremy. But depending on Jeremy's situation, that may or may not happen. Some of my friends would love to see a love story begin between Tyler and Bonnie. I am not so keen on that seeing as I'm a Damon/Bonnie shipper, but, I can see it happening, as much as I don't want to admit it.

Julie Plec, producer and writer, has said that the Lockwoods are dealing with a "multi-layered curse" in one interview this summer. Now, me and my TVD crew all had the same reaction. "WTF does that mean?" And honestly, we have thrown around so many ideas that I think we are still grasping at straws. This is going to be one surprise that I know, none of us are going to see coming.

Now, Damon knows something is wrong with the Lockwoods, considering his run in with the Mayor in the finale last season, but he doesn't know what. However, with his desire to always have control over the situation, we know he is going to be doing some poking around. In the synopsis of episode 2, Damon will provoke Mason and Tyler, and I have a feeling, find out what they are before anyone else. And in episode 3 "Bad Moon Rising", Elena, Damon and Alaric take a road trip to Duke to do some research on the Lockwoods. What exactly are they going to find?

Lastly, Julie Plec and Kevin Williamson also told fans that Katherine has a history with the werewolves. But what kind of history? This is one of the reasons I think she is coming back, to see where she stands with the werewolves. Were they enemies or allies? Has Mason met Katherine before? I'm guessing he has, but whether they are enemies or friends is not something I am willing to grasp at quite yet. But I think it's going to be her moves either with or against the Lockwoods that is going to start this apparent division of the town that will happen this season.

3. Bonnie and Emily

Bonnie has accepted her destiny as a Bennett witch, and is clearly powerful. But is she as powerful as she thinks? She seems to think that she can easily take down a vampire anytime anywhere. Is that going to be true with Katherine? They have a confrontation in the premiere and that quick, we will know how well Bonnie will be able to deal with her. From Grams, we know that witches can use their emotions to fuel their magic, but can it also make their magic fall out of their control when they don't keep the reigns on their emotions? I have a feeling we are going to see Bonnie struggle with her gift, and lose control of it, possibly, even hurt someone. Katherine has a history with the Bennett witches. Emily was her handmaiden for many years, making all kinds of gadgets for her. Is there something that Katherine wants from Bonnie? Will she try to manipulate Bonnie into becoming her side kick like she did Emily?

Since "History Repeating", episode 9 of Season 1, there has been debate about Emily. Whether she is really dead and whose side she is on. I don't think she is dead. After all, how can you really corner and kill a witch as powerful as we know Emily was? Is she trapped somewhere, like the tomb vampires? Or is she simply manipulating Bonnie from a distance? Some things we do know is that Emily became Katherine's handmaiden after Katherine saved her life. Considering how powerful Emily is, what danger could she have possibly been under? Was it before her powers developed, and Katherine has known about her family for much longer that we think? It's definitely a possibility since we do not know how old Katherine really is.

Something else we know is that for whatever reason, Emily wanted Damon to protect her descendants. It's the deal they made in 1864 to supposedly save Katherine by trapping her in the tomb. So since that time, Damon has protected the Bennett witches. Julie Plec told us we would see in flashbacks, Emily make the deal with Damon, and I have a feeling there are going to be more agreements than just those we know about.

4. a bigger evil

Over the summer, it was revealed that a worse evil will waltz into Mystic Falls. There has been speculation ever since then, on what that could possibly be. Will they take characters from the books and introduce Klaus or Shinichi? Will it be a new character entirely? Perhaps Emily has turned evil and returns for revenge. These are only a few of the ideas we have come up with. However, I do think, that this season we will be introduced to something else other than a witch, a vampire or a werewolf. If it's going to be something worse, I only thing I can think of is a some type of demon. It's speculated from the parts of Johnathan Gilbert's journals, that demons are a big possibility. At this point, I am not able to say for sure which idea I think is more likely.

5. The new characters

Other than Mason, there are two more new recurring characters. Carter and Amy. We have been told that Carter is connected with the carnival that rolls into town and gets into trouble with Bonnie, so I have a feeling that he is not going to be around for long. However, during a fan interview, Julie Plec did say that Bonnie is not going to be the only witch in town. Now, that doesn't mean that it has to be a girl, I think. Is Carter going to be a warlock? Or is the witch going to be Amy, who we know somehow, winds up wrapped up in all the supernatural events taking place in Mystic Falls, or are they both just going to be in the wrong place at the wrong time? If there is one thing that fans should have learned during season 1, it's that nothing is what it seems. Anyone in the town can turn out to be anything. I know Julie and Kevin are going to have surprises in store for us when it comes to Carter and Amy.

6. Introduction of a gay character

Kevin Williamson revealed in an interview over the summer that they were going to introduce a gay character in to the show this season. We have been wondering all summer, who it might be. My money is on, Mason. To me, it would make sense. Mason returns after his brother is killed to support is transforming nephew Tyler. I'm thinking that Mason didn't get along with his brother, and that's the reason he has been gone until now. Now why exactly did he leave? Consider this: The Lockwoods are one of the founding families. From what we saw from the Mayor and Tyler in season 1, a very proud family at that. How exactly would the family react to a son that reveals he is gay, in a small town where everyone knows everything, and the Lockwoods are one of the most respected families. I think it's a very good possibility.

As of this moment, those are all the predictions I have for you. But I would like to give you one more quick list of a few things I would like to see happen in this season:

1. Dalaric - more bonding between Damon and Alaric
2. Damon/Matt/Stefan triangle - in the books, there is a fabulous friendship between Matt and Stefan, and a loathing between Matt and Damon that just worked so well and brought a lot of humor. I would love to see that worked into this season.
3. For the love of God, please let Caroline and Matt find out what's happening.
4. The return of Matt's mom - after learning that she is a succubus in one of the deleted scenes, she needs to return. And is Matt an incubus?
5. Damon/Bonnie - I'm a D/B shipper, so I always love to see Damon and Bonnie scenes. And if one of my predictions are right, they are going to have to find a way to work together this season.
6. Flashbacks - I'm always keen to seeing more flashbacks to 1864, but I would like to see scenes of Damon and Stefan perhaps in the 20's, or 60's.

That's it for now folks, but this is only the beginning of the insanity. Season 2 begins tomorrow night with "The Return". Don't miss it!

Fall TV: 'Blood Dolphins'

Years ago when I created my "Bucket List," I wrote down "Swim with Dolphins."

Then I saw the Academy Award winning documentary "The Cove."

The film follows a crew who are documenting the capture and slaughter of dolphins in Taiji, Japan.

Some dolphins are captured and sold to theme parks and most others are herded into a cove and outright killed.

The end of the film saw the crew document (for the first time ever) what exactly was going on in that cove and the horrors inside. The documentary becomes almost unbearable to watch as the fisherman use many methods to kill the dolphins and turn the beautiful water of the cove into a horrific mass of blood red water.

The new Animal Planet mini-series "Blood Dolphins" is a sequel of sorts to "The Cove."

Viewers are reintroduced to the man responsible to trying to save the dolphins, Ric O'Barry, as he comes back to Taiji with international press and publicity for "The Cove" on his side.

You see, O'Barry is a deeply troubled man. He personally feels 100 percent responsible for what is going on.

Back in the '60s O'Barry personally captured and trained the dolphins that would become the television sensation "Flipper."

Due to the popularity of "Flipper" more and more parks wanted trained dolphins to perform at their parks because popularity equals tons of cash.

Years later O'Barry was called to come care for one of the ailing dolphins who portrayed Flipper. He looked into the dolphins eyes, held her for a bit and watched her die (from suicide he says).

That moment changed him forever... and haunted him as well.

He spent every working moment of his life from then on to save dolphins around the world.

Along with his son, Lincoln, they find that things seem to have improved in Taiji... at first. The press coverage seems to be working as the hunt doesn't start when it's supposed to

When the fishermen think the O'Barrys have left they resume the hunting and killing. There is a lot of money to be made from dolphin meat, even though it contains dangerous levels of mercury.

This brings an emotional suckerpunch during the show when both father and son sneak back and video tape this happening. Ric has seen this before, but it's not like that makes a difference. It's Lincoln who is personally seeing this for the first time.

The look of horror and disgust on his face is almost as tough to watch as the bleeding dolphins being dragged by a boat through the water.

Children should not watch this mini-series. Even some teenagers will be disturbed by it.

Like I said before it is an emotional suckerpunch. Even someone without a heart like me is deeply affected by this. No matter what you think it's wrong. These animals should be free, not caged and forced to perform for the enjoyment of others.

And certainly not made into dolphin steaks.

The next few episodes follow the O'Barrys as they travel to the Solomon Islands where the exact same business as in Taiji is occurring.

You can see clips and learn more about "Blood Dolphins" here.

And yes I immediately took "Swim with Dolphins" off my list.

'Sons of Anarchy' returns tonight

Tonight one of the most fantastic shows on TV returns with the third season premiere of "Sons of Anarchy" at 10 p.m. on FX.

"Anarchy" follows the lives of the members of the Sons of Anarchy Motorcycle Club Redwood Original (SAMCRO) as they maintain a gunrunning business and deal with inter-club politics.

Veteran actor Ron Perlman plays the club's tough as nails president Clay Morrow and British actor Charlie Hunnam plays the young, idealistic vice president Jax Teller.

Jax thinks they should try to go legit, but Clay seems fine with the status quo. This power struggle has caused a rift in the club, but like all families SAMCRO comes together when outsiders attack.


This season picks up where the second season ended with Jax's young son being kidnapped by a rival gunrunner. The club helps him in his frantic search while trying to solve its internal issues.

While the show is extremely intense in its portrayal of SAMCRO's world, the quality comes in the way the story is told and the performances of the great cast, the best of which is Katey Sagal as Gemma Teller Morrow.

As Jax's mother and Clay's wife, Gemma is caught in the middle of their feud. While she is careful not to choose sides, she knows the club's continued survival depends on the two men solving their differences.

As the first lady of SAMCRO, Gemma runs a tight ship keeping the other wives and girlfriends in check. Sagal is at once graceful and tough. Her unyielding support for her family makes her the glue that holds it all together.

It is criminal that her tour de force performance from last season went unnoticed by Emmy voters. One can only hope they pay more attention this year.

In her column on tvsquad.com Maureen Ryan said that fans of shows like "The Shield" and "Battlestar Galcatica" would like "Sons of Anarchy" and I agree 100 percent.

The complex characters and the morally undefineable lives they live makes this one of the most interesting and watchable shows on TV.

"Sons of Anarchy" airs Tuesdays on FX at 10 p.m.

Putting 'Scott Pilgrim' into perspective

With today being a holiday and all, I decided to do something a little different and kick "Scott Pilgrim vs. the World" while it was down.

After the results of this weekend's box office came in, the movie is now in 18th place with a grand total of $28.9 million.

Its budget is $60 million, so unless it makes a ton of money overseas it's going to be considered a bomb.

So, to rub salt in the wound here are some movies that actually, and surprisingly, did better at the box office:

"Charlie St. Cloud" - $30 million
"Vampires Suck" - $33 million
"Marmaduke" - $33 million
"Meet the Spartans" - $38 million
"Step Up 3D" - $41 million
"Tooth Fairy" - $61 million

Heck, "Norbit" even made $95 million!

"Norbit!"

I am not a total monster.

I will give "Scott Pilgrim" a little bit of credit.

It did make a lot more than "From Justin to Kelly."

New episode up...

2010 Scream Awards nominations: reaction

The nominees for the 2010 Scream Awards are out and since these are awards tailor made for nerds, I felt we should share some thoughts about a few of the more interesting categories. Also note that they don't separate TV and movies so "Lost" and "True Blood" are nominated against "Avatar" and "Kick Ass" in several categories.


The Ultimate Scream

• "Alice in Wonderland"
• "Avatar"
• "District 9"
• "Inception"
• "Iron Man 2"
• "Kick-Ass"
• "Lost"
• "True Blood"
• "The Twilight Saga: Eclipse"
• "Zombieland"

This seems like an impossible category to predict since this really represents the best of the past year. It's been a movie the last few years in a row, so it would be interesting to see a TV show sneak in and take it.

Best TV Show

• "Dexter"
• "Doctor Who"
• "Lost"
• "True Blood"
• "V"

Obviously I'm completely biased and want "Doctor Who" to win, but it'll probably be "True Blood," which I'm also cool with.

Best Science Fiction Actor

• Sharlto Copley-"District 9"
• Leonardo DiCaprio-"Inception"
• Robert Downey Jr.-"Iron Man 2"
• Matthew Fox-"Lost"
• Josh Holloway-"Lost"
• Denzel Washington-"The Book of Eli"

Because the Scream Awards are fan voted, this category seems like a complete toss up. All of these actors are fan favorites, but if I had to choose I'd go with Downey, because he's king of the nerds right now.


Best Ensemble

• "Inception"
• "Iron Man 2"
• "Kick Ass"
• "Lost"
• "True Blood"
• "Zombieland"

For me "Lost" is one of the best ensembles ever put on screen, so if it doesn't win I'll be a little disappointed. However, "Inception" and "True Blood" are both very strong contenders.

There are also categories for Best Comic Book or Graphic Novel, Best Comic Book Writer and Best Comic Book Artist, all of which have a extremely strong list of nominees. But, if "Blackest Night" and Geoff Johns don't win for that spectacular title crossing series, I don't know what to say.

There are 30 categories in all and for the complete list you can head here. The 2010 Scream Awards airs on Spike TV on Oct. 19 at 9 p.m.

A fangirl's top six: unexpected fan favorite characters

I honestly tried to make this a list of 10 characters, but I could only come up with six that really fit the description. Whether from a film, television series, or book, has there ever been a character that you became attached to so quickly, that they completely took you by surprise? All of the characters on this list are exactly that.

So much, that the author or writers continued to use the character for much more, and much longer than they expected. Perhaps even becoming a main character.




6. Lafayette Reynolds ("True Blood")

Portrayed by Nelsan Ellis, I do not know one fan of the HBO hit series that is not happy Lafayette survived the first season of the show. In fact, the fan reaction to his character was so strong, the writers decided to go against the story of the Sookie Stackhouse novels, which "True Blood" is based upon, because Lafayette is actually killed in the beginning of the second book.

Unsure whether I even had an interest to watch the series, the first scene I saw is Lafayette's entrance, and I immediately knew that I would enjoy it. Although I have yet to watch the show because I do not have HBO, I still plan to buy the DVDs, once HBO makes them available for a starving college student.



5. Alaric Saltzman ("The Vampire Diaries")

Played by Matt Davis (aka Ernesto Riley) Yes, Alaric does stick around in "The Vampire Diaries" novels written by L.J. Smith, on which the series is based. However, he does not play as important a role as he does in the hit television series. The moment we met Mystic Falls' new history teacher, we knew he was here for a purpose. As the fan response became stronger, so did his role in the center of the story.

Then, the creators of the series, Julie Plec and Kevin Williamson, did something that carved Alaric's name into stone as a main character: they teamed him up with unstable and volatile Damon Salvatore. Who knew that a vampire and a vampire hunter would become one of the best duos on television? I have no doubt whatsoever, that Alaric will be sticking around for a while.
4. Dobby ("Harry Potter")

Voiced by Toby Jones in the films, after all the mass of character in this series, who knew that it would be the free house elf that would become the most surprising fan favorite? I'm not positive what kind of plans J.K. Rowling had for Dobby, but I am willing to bet she did not expect how the fans would respond.

Playing key roles in Book two, Book five, and saving lives in Book seven, it is Dobby that makes the true raw emotions boil to the surface. Knowing where Part one of "Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows" is going to end, I will warn everyone to carry along a box of tissues, and be prepared to stand up and cheer for our favorite house elf!

3. Karl "Helo" Agathon ("Battlestar Galactica")

Played by Tahmoh Penikett, creators Ronald Moore and David Eick did not plan on Helo making it out of the miniseries of "Battlestar Galactica" alive. After giving up his seat to save Gaius Baltar, Boomer left him on the surface of Caprica and headed back to Galactica. After legions of fans demanded to know exactly what happened to him on Caprica, Moore and Eick had no choice but to continue his story.

Helo became a true heart of the series, his humanity being tested time and time again, being the man that falls in love with a Cylon, and has a human cylon hybrid child with her. Many of the stand out moments for me in "Battlestar Galactica," are moments when Helo shines, or is forced to make a terrible decision. And the remarkable thing about Helo, is we can always trust him to do the right thing.


2. Magnus Bane ("The Mortal Instruments")

I know most people are not familiar with Magnus Bane and are probably wondering why the hell there is a picture of Adam Lambert up here. Well, Magnus is a character from the young adult fantasy series "The Mortal Instruments" written by Cassandre Clare, who believe it or not, began writing "Harry Potter" fan fiction.

As for Adam Lambert...I'm not particularly sure I agree with this, but most fans of the series believe Adam would play a perfect Magnus in the movies. However, I do agree that Adam's style is definitely what Magnus needs to be like in the movies. I'm sure they will find somebody perfect. But, back to Magnus...a warlock who we know for sure is a few centuries old, splashes so many flamboyant colors onto the pages of "The Mortal Instruments" and now, "The Infernal Devices."

His humor, wit and flamboyance is unforgettable and instantly charming. He started out as a character that would only show his face in a single chapter in Book 1. But when Clare realized how much the fans responded to him, she knew she had to bring him back, and in the following books, he became a main character.

Personally, he is my favorite character of the series, and I found myself pulling for his and Alec's relationship to make it through, more than Clary and Jace's, the two main characters of the series. The thing that truly made me decide that Magnus was my favorite character, for the first two books, it seemed he could never be pulled down by anything. His wit always seemed to dominate his emotions.
That is, until he met Alec.

His love for Alec truly eats away at him, enough that he is willing to put his own head on the chopping block to make sure Alec is unharmed. It's the easiest and most simple declaration of love you can give, and finally, Alec relents, giving the Shadowhunter rule book a toss out the window. (Being a gay Shadowhunter is a big no-no). We have always loved Magnus for his humor, but now, we can love him for his humanity.

1. Rodney McKay ("Stargate: Atlantis")

There are two characters that are probably the most iconic in the "Stargate" franchise. One is Jack, and the other is Dr. Rodney McKay, played by David Hewlett. I will even go as far to say that he may be one of the greatest science fiction characters ever created.

A Canadian born physicist, we first meet him in the "Stargate SG-1" episode "48 Hours" where he is assigned to help Carter rescue Teal'c. To say that they clash is putting it lightly. It's almost as if the writer's set him up to be one of those annoyingly irritating characters that is not really a bad guy, but you really want him to be. Much how they painted Woosley to be when he was first introduced.

However, I'm sure it's because of Hewlett's performance, there is still something about McKay that we simply can't resist, which is why writer's kept bringing him back until he finally became a series regular in "Stargate Atlantis." However insulting, hard-headed or unwittingly idiotic to the conventions of friendship he may be at times, McKay has always had the best of intentions. Becoming part of the prime Atlantis team, and having friendships with Sheppard, Teyla, Elizabeth, and most of all Carson, really filled in all the doubts we would ever have about him.

McKay truly is a hero, and would be someone you always want at your side. Despite how whiny or affronting he can be, he is also a center of humor, and is undyingly loyal, never forgetting what is at stake, which is usually the fate of the galaxy.
He makes mistakes yes, many of them in fact. However, the thing that we love about McKay is that he never makes the same one twice. He learns from them, and always desperately tries to make things better. He may have the biggest ego in the universe, but because of the strong relationships he has around him, he has a big heart as well and will always be a hero in my eyes.

Now excuse me while I go start a "Stargate" marathon...

September movies project

Stephanie and I decided to reuse the formula for our Fall TV project and apply it to new movies coming out this month.



For the record and lazy people:

Tim has to see "Machete" and "Alpha and Omega," while Stephanie gets the romantic comedies "Going the Distance" and "You Again."

Thanks to our good friend, and technology wizard, Khai Le for helping out with the video.

Dancing with who?

In recent years "Dancing with the Stars" has really stretched the limits of the who can be called a star. It also has become predictable, as it fills certain roles every season.

With the announcement of this year's cast, the show has once again cast a cornucopia of reality stars, Hollywood has beens and athletes.

Just in case you missed it, here's this season's cast.

• The Athletes-former Laker Rick Fox, former NFL quarterback Kurt Warner
• The Showman-David Hasselhoff
• The Comeback Kids-Brandy, Michael Bolton
• The Reality Stars-"The Hills'" Audrina Patridge, "Jersey Shore's" Mike "The Situation" Sorrentino
• The Sentimental Favorites-Jennifer "Nobody puts baby in a corner" Grey, "Brady Bunch" mom Florence Henderson
• The Wildcards-Disney star Kyle Massey, comedianne Margaret Cho
• The WTF?-Bristol Palin

While it sounds like an interesting cast, there's only two or three people that I genuinely want to see. So if those people don't make it to the later rounds, I'll probably stop watching.

Of course the inevitable cheesy trainwreck that is Hasselhoff will be awesome to watch.
