tempt me already
ok, yagonna watch the final episode, or what? it's hideous, revolting, and as addicting as picking at scabs. yep it's temptation island -- and if you must maintain the moral high-ground (boring!) just check out salon's witty analysis here and here.

just remember, they had to watch it to write the article. so there, I'm not in such bad company after all. anyway, it's a great anthropological study in blabbity-blah. vital to my sensibilities as a designer. finger on the pulse of the cultural mileu and all that.
from the salon article:
The thing is, Andy and Shannon really, really hate each other -- but it's a polite, insidious, repressed hatred. It's an Episcopalian sort of hatred. It's OK to hate somebody, but not to get worked up over it. So Andy suffuses every interaction with Shannon with the veiled threat of his imminent, explosive sex spree and Shannon punishes him by smiling and crinkling her sad eyes and acting like his mother and never dumping his sorry ass.

It's so creepy and sinister, we wish the whole show were about them.
what they say.
