I may be hip deep in The Game right now, after a week of intense production and prep, but there's no way I'm going to miss Battle of the Network Reality Stars. I only recognize the Survivor, Amazing Race, Big Brother, and Apprentice alums (plus Matt Gould from Joe Schmo), but the people behind the show obviously have fond memories of its namesake. This is an homage, right down to the return to the Pepperdine campus, and they got the feel right. Great stuff, even if the "stars" in question can barely muster a twinkle. If you missed it, no worries-- it's on Bravo.

Things like Omarosa interviewing TAR6's Jonathan...who would've thought they could bundle so much evil in some spots, and so much likeability in other areas (i.e. yay Chip & Kim, and Matt Gould!)
I like how diverse they are, getting all the Joe shows in. They missed the opportunity to get someone from The Mole...
And I figure they lost the chance to do a Laff-a-Lympics-style contest, by not putting all the "bad guy" characters on one team.
