BIO CHANNEL INFORMS with FOOD FOR THE MIND

In our search for decent programming we came across the BIO Channel. This was a refreshing discovery as they present biographies of entertainment stars from around the world. What we found most interesting are the bio's of Asian stars whose talents are largely unknown to entertainment buffs in the Western world and A. Mei is one of those superstar Asian talents.

Tonight the channel will feature a biography on Britney Spears whose life has been well chronicled as it unravels. Her rise to fame and fortune has been marred with pain and suffering in her personal life to the point of her almost losing it. Her biography will be televised tonight Saturday, February 23, 2013 and repeat Monday, February 25, 2013 (in Asia). This will be interesting viewing to see what Bio reveals about Spears that we may not know.

The program is scheduled to air at 8 PM in East Asia Thailand time and 9 PM Hong Kong and Singapore time. Tune in or lose out.

BIO also gets real with biographies of those involved with history. The story of Benazir Bhutto the former Prime Minister of Pakistan was so in depth they devoted two hours to her story. It goes back to her birth in 1953 to her assassination in a bombing on 27 December 2007.

Politics led to her assassination as it did to the deaths of her father the previous Prime Minister and her two brothers. It's a grim tale but a story worth knowing as it points out the root cause of the problems that currently exist in the Muslim nation.

The lighter scenes in the bio are from her college days as a 16-year-old student in Harvard University at the tale end of the sixties flower power (PEACE) generation. Eighteen is the most common age for a first year college student. Bhutto and her father had progressive ideas that were eradicated by the Pakistan government and military.

K-POP STAR HUNT

K-POP STAR HUNT is a program that we during its initial season last year as it aired on Channel V. This season it has moved to the Star World channel. The program auditions talent in the East Asian region in search of talent for its factory of POP groups. The groups are well known for their sexy, cute and bubbly personality and charm. That chemistry works as their popularity has grown in recent years while overcoming the language barrier.

In many cases they don't get it right but unlike American Idol they admit that they are looking for an image not the best voice.

Red flags that jump out are they are partial to young Thai talent. Last season winner was 15 year-old Chonnasorn Sajakul (Sorn) and this season winner is 15 year-old Kawintida Sujindaporn (Ling Ling. Both have decent voices but by far were not the best. One singer that was eliminated in the audition stage had the best voice throughout the program.

The rest of the competition admitted how strong her voice was and were shocked that she was eliminated. She broke into tears and was a surrounded with hugs from the competitors but her fate was sealed she was out of the competition.

"I was quite surprised," said one contestant. The reality is that voice is not the main skill they are looking for. From our perspective image is 1st on the list, age 2nd voice 3rd and dancing skills 4th.

The reality is that she was thick in the thighs and one of the selling point of Star Pop talents if their figure which most of their talent are thin and shapely. If this was only a singing contest she would most likely would have won. K-Pop sell teen sexy images period and that chemistry works for them.

The oldest contestant in the competition was Chih-Ang Tsai from Taiwan is 27 and was eliminated in the top 16. The youngest Shimali De Silva is 13 but looks and with her height intelligence and maturity looked and acted as though she was 27 was eliminated in the top 12. De Silva is from Sri Lanka but lives in Hong Kong. The show repeatedly showed a video of her leaving her very expensive home so much so that it brought to mind why were they showing this home of an apparent wealthy person? What was the point?

The Season 2 program airs Monday thru Wednesday at 5 PM Thailand time and 6 PM Hong Kong, Singapore time.

AMAZING RACE 22 has a GOOD CAST & is HEATING UP FROM THE GET GO.

The Amazing Race has largely disappointed the past few seasons due to a boring cast. The last most interesting race was when two of the Harlem Globetrotters were in the race. The new season has an interesting cast including YouTube vloggers Joey Graceffa and Meghan Camarena, hockey-playing brothers, father & son cancer survivors, roller derby moms, and Stealing Angels vocalists Caroline Cutbirth and Jennifer Kuhle. Bates Battaglia has played in the National Hockey League for several teams, though he is currently an unrestricted free agent, while his brother Anthony currently plays for the Tulsa Oilers of the Central Hockey League.

The interesting twist from the get go is when the race started it was announced that the first team to arrive at the initial pit stop would again receive an Express Pass for themselves, but in a new twist, an additional express pass to be given to another team of their choosing before the fourth leg.

At the Papeete, Tahiti airport where teams made a connection flight to Bora Bora French Polynesia several teams made an alliance that the team finishing 1st would agree to giving the pass to the team finishing 2nd. The hockey brothers finished 2nd but were not involved in the agreement. During the tease for this weeks show on Monday the team that finished 1st a dating couple Jessica and John were seen arguing with father and son team who are also cancer survivors Dave & Connor that finished 3rd about honoring the pact since they were involved in the alliance and qualified for the express pass.

"This is a race and not an honesty competition," exclaimed John the holder of the bonus express pass.

The couple said they were not necessarily going to honor the agreement and the fact that they were talking about it made the agreement null in void. This drama will play out for the next three legs if the couple fail to give the pass to the cancer survivors or the BIG, STRONG hockey brothers. When the hockey brothers find out about the pact they may not take the news lightly. Stay tuned as this is a season worth watching for Amazing Race fans.

The show is televised at 7:15 Monday nights in the Thai time zone on the AXN Network and 8:15 in the Singapore, Hong Kong time zones.
