Remember Lisa Whelchel who played Blair Warner on The Fact of Life? Well she is back on TV and she is going to be competing on the next edition of Survivor that debuts on September 19th on CBS. The former televsion teen actress, as she describes herself, really wanted to be on the show. And fans of her ’80s sitcom are happy to have her back on TV even if it is reality.
When it comes to the rest of the Survivors, does anyone else care who will be on the 25th edition of the show? Well the only we do care is if one of the three contestants, that have not been named yet, is Nancy McKeon. Who else would like to see Jo Polniaczek and Blair Warner go at one more time and this time in the jungles of Philippines.

Playing cards, because I love to play games.

Why You Think You Will Be the Sole SURVIVOR: My inherent make up is to assess the big-picture goal, determine the steps to reach it, gain everything there is to learn about how to accomplish the goal, jump in with both feet, connect with other people’s strengths and never give up until the job is done.
Joe Jonas was on Late Night on Friday and Jimmy Fallon challenged him to a game of Rock, Papers, Scissors, Pie. The game is easy, the two men put their heads through some cardboard cutouts and then play the children’s game Rock, Papers, Scissors, Shoot. Then the loser has to turn the notch to see if they will get a cream pie to the face. Sadly for The Next mentor, he got creamed not once but twice.
As much as I enjoyed that, I liked it better the first time that he played the game with Anderson Cooper because it was more about the anticipation of getting a face full of pie as compared to actually getting it. For some reason that is more torturous and to me more exciting.
