I read the subject line as "The Amazing Rack." I cannot begin to describe how disappointed I am.

The X-Files
Supernatural
Law & Order: Special Victims Unit
Psych
White Collar
Friday Night Lights
Blue Bloods

Someone - a BB, I believe - posted a video to Facebook showing the start. Evidently it was at 3AM.

I thought she was going to be on it at one time. At least I am pretty sure she tried out with one of the girls. She has been to a lot of the events like wrap parties, etc.
