What I'm Watching

Face Off, a reality competition series about special effects make-up, started its second season last night. I'm psyched. Most episodes have two challenges. In the Foundation Challenge; the winner gets some type of advantage for the Spotlight Challenge in which someone will be eliminated.

Last night as soon as all the contestants arrived, they were tasked to create a new character using resources from Universal Studios. The winner got immunity from elimination. In the Spotlight Challenge, the men competed against the women to redesign the Scarecrow, Tin Man, Cowardly Lion and the Witch from the Wizard of Oz.

It's fun to see how the contestants come up with their approaches to the challenges and how they pull them off (or not.) While there are personality conflicts and arguments, there's less bullshit than that of many other reality shows (Jersey Shore and Housewives--I'm looking at you.)

I'm looking forward to seeing more.
