No Tigers, NBA Draft tomorrow, I don't give a fuck about reality shows or series that I need to know characters, backstory, etc.

Looking for some mindless entertainment.

What'cha got?

cheerios + wife's nipples. Go.

Glenn

Fuck it, I'll just watch the Jim Gaffigan DVD again.

Cat Stevens (by any other name) is on PBS (Detroit WTVS Channel 56) at 8pm.

I watched Law and Order for about 30 minutes, then played Warcraft 3 most of the night. Kicked ass and took names.

It means

inventive sex + fighting heart disease > tv.

You could have went with Apple Cinnamon Cheerios, or straight up Apple Jacks.

Fool

Dude it doesn't even matter! The point of the game is to get her to writhe enough to propel the cheerios high enough to catch them in your mouth. Even if you get them high enough, you never catch those little bastards.

Glenn
06-28-2007, 10:23 AM
Eh, we watched "Deal or No Deal" instead.

Some guy from Trinidad was on there screaming about being a Dwyane Wade fan. If he won the million $, he was going to buy MIAMI HEAT SEASON TICKETS!!! *applause*

The Wiggles were there too, it was pretty nice.

Sorry man, I just disagree.

You are or have been married, right?

Did you have sex 365 nights a year?

Not with Cheerios, unfortunately.

Glenn

Howie wins!

My wife informed me that he's like a germophobic or something, he doesn't shake hands with anyone, ever.

That's why he does all of those fist bumps with the contestants.

I was vaguely watching a documentary called Nobelity -- upchuckings from 9 Nobel Prize winners about the great problems of the day. This inspired me to re-read a cool old independent comic book collection of Nexus, best described here:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nexus_%28comics%29

and not pay all that much attention to the documentary (or the Cat Stevens special I mentioned earlier, which was more a documentary than a concert).

No sex was involved, alas.

Scrubs is the only show I can think of where the main character is the least likable of all the characters, and is in fact a total douche. Everyone else is a thousand times funnier than he is.

Thursday night is the best night of TV (non-sports of course).

Earl and The Office are on.

Sometimes I watch the new Law and Order

Can't go wrong with those.

Plus soon you'll have the NBA on TNT/TBS.

And yes, the WS is on again. Tomorrow is an off day before the Sa/Su back to back in Denver (not sure if they play Monday too).

Zip Goshboots
10-25-2007, 06:33 PM
Fucked. Seriously, if you are a dude and you watch Grey's Anatomy, you are one small step from wanting to run out and invest all your life savings in gay porn

Now, this motherfucker is fixed.

WTFchris
10-25-2007, 06:41 PM
Good call. I've only watched it once, but to me it was simply a soap opera/ER hybrid...and ER is already half soap opera anyway. I'm not really a fan of scrubs, but at least that has some humor in it.

Trust me, the Office is way better. Especially if you work in an office environment. Earl was awesome last year, but the prison angle isn't clicking with me right now. hopefully they stop that soon and get back to the funny shit.

Uncle Mxy

Those space guys are still walking (floating, if you ask me) around up there.

This morning the guy was going to take some pictures with his helmet cam out there in space, but his memory card was full. No shit. So they had him go back to the some place about 5 minutes away out there in space to get a different camera. He finally made it back with the camera but that camera didn't work. So they said they'd try again tomorrow.

Prolly close to a million bucks by the time we get those pictures.

But thats on TV.

10-29-2007, 08:24 AM

So I'm cruising the program guide and there's a reality show called "Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders" with its implied promise of T&A. Smokin hot chicks being told they're fat, stupid and can't dance.

It was pretty amusing... for about 5 minutes.

Did anyone catch American Gladiators last night?

I loved that show growing up and even in college my roommates and would watch reruns.

I might be in the minority here but I loved it last night. Same basic premise with some interesting new events. Plus the Gladiator chicks are WAY hotter than 15 years ago. Hogan sucks at announcing and it seems like the competitors are fed lines but its still great. This got added to my Season Pass on TIVO 10 minutes into the first episode.

MoTown
01-07-2008, 11:28 AM
I enjoyed it, but they need to go back to the original theme song. They can remake it, but that song made the show.

The chick competitors were awful, however. It's not that hard to run the eliminator without crying.

D's Nuts
01-07-2008, 12:10 PM
Haha, the chick that fell down like 5 times and was hanging onto the top of the ramp was BRUTAL. Talk about an epic collapse. The best part is that shes a "Life Coach" and failed miserably. Good luck dealing with that for the rest of your life.

Also Im glad that jackoff lost in the 2nd show who tried like 15 years ago or whatever. He was a cocky bitch and glad he got put in his place.

UxKa
01-07-2008, 02:02 PM
I thought it kinda sucked compared to the old shows. The old eps just had the competitions, and the new one had all sorts of storyline and stupid comments and fake drama. Pretty much the norm for TV now so I wasn't surprised... I'll just stick with the reruns on ESPC.

D's Nuts
01-07-2008, 04:48 PM
Yeah I agree that it sucked compared to the originals but you have to take it for what it is. Its like 15 years since the original aired and things are a lot different.

Like I mentioned before, its over produced, horrible announcing, jacked up athletes........ basically it sounds just like MLB.

DINOSAURS: RETURN TO LIFE? premiers on Discovery Channel February 17th 9 pm EST - Ever since Jurassic Park, we?ve dreamed of recreating dinosaurs. But the science behind this fantasy seemed impossible -- until now. Remarkable genetic advances are revealing that the DNA of dinosaurs and birds are extremely similar. And scientists are uncovering ancient dinosaur traits in birds? DNA like teeth and long dinosaur tails. Advances in genetic engineering are moving so fast that famed paleontologist Jack Horner believes within our lifetime it will be possible to retro-engineer a dinosaur-like creature from a bird. In Dinosaurs: Return to Life, learn why the dream of recreating the dinosaurs is coming closer to reality..."

I recently got into "Lost." That is the best TV show I've ever followed, I highly recommend it. You can watch every episode for free on ABC.com as well. Now that I've finished all of that and it won't be on again until January, I'm looking for something new to get into. Heroes, perhaps.

Well in that case let me catch you up to speed:

Jack Bauer is more badass than Chuck Norris. That's all you need to know.

You should catch up on the seasons. They're addicting as hell. Just make sure you have time to watch them - because if you watch one episode, chances are you'll watch 10. Make a weekend out of watching one season.

Season 1 - Amazing
Season 2 - Good
Season 3 - Good
Season 4 - Okay
Season 5 - Great
Season 6 - Pretty bad
Season 7 - Good start

It's funny, I love sports, but I have trouble watching some games because of non-stop commercials. I find myself changing the channel for a while when the Pistons play for a minute, take a time out, play for another minute, TV timeout, play for 30 seconds, opponent takes a timeout.

Some days I just don't have the attention span for it, especially if I'm just not in the mood.
