Television
Posts about the crap I watch on the telly. At least it is the fake, scripted kind and not the reality, scripted kind.
Carl on sports
Ever wanted to talk sports with Carl from Aqua Teen Hunger Force? Well… you can’t. But some dudes at The Sporting News can and they have clips on their blog. I am going to go check out his Week 2 NFL picks right now…
Buh bye
Won’t have to hear that much longer… unless she turns up on ESPN.
That’s right, Hazel Mae is goners. Buh bye bombs. She might have burst onto the scene four years ago, but she became old news in my book soon after. By burst, I mean I never cared about her until that Fever Pitch premiere dress she was wearing. That was the event, right? Yup, I found myself prone to become a typical male and stare in awe at her… well… you know. It was quickly downhill from there.
Anyway, shocked to read that she dated doughboy Steve Levy… was she trying to sleep her way into ESPN? Leave it to the Inside Track to give us the good stuff. Ricky Davis? Really? Huh… wait a minute… did Perez Hilton take over this blog???
I find it funny that I got to that Herald story from bos... Continue reading »
Lost: There’s No Place Like Home
So, to echo the end of my comments on Ed’s excellent (as always) post on his site:
Overall, loved this episode. Thought it was really well done in connecting some dots and opening up some new questions. Strike be damned, this season was very, very strong.
It is going to be a long wait for next season.
Oh… hands down: Kate.
Lost and found
I fell behind on watching Lost again, so I caught up by watching the last three episodes in a row last week. I watched the previous two prior to being able to watch last week’s live in HD, so it was a marathon viewing to be sure. In fact, they all blended together quickly on me.
Anyway, for much the same reason I was behind on watching, I was behind on reading Ed’s blog posts and I just now finally had the chance to catch up over there. (Thank you vacation day!) In fact, it wasn’t just that but almost a handful of other posts too. My man is definitely over that writer’s block.
That said, I’m going to break from doing a single aside for each epsiode’s comments here in favor of this single wrap-up. Besides, I don’t want to have to keep saying how hot Kate is in each. I mean, she came back huge on me with those flash forwards… I mean, the dress-shirt-as-jammies thing does it every time, you know? We men are such easy creatures…
Enough of the (wearing thin) joking around, here are the links:
- Something Nice Back Home
- Cabin Fever (I am talking out my ass on this one)
- There’s No Place Like Home
Looking forward to the finale, but also sad to know that’s it for a while. Will it keep us talking over the Summer and Fall? Based on how it has been going, how would it not? These guy’s are too good…
Lost: The Shape of Things to Come
Yeah, one may wonder if my lack of blogging over April had anything to do with Lost not being on… well, you’d be wrong. It wasn’t that in as much as it was me not wanting to spend time writing until the Shiny Bits were done and being very, very busy at work these last 3+ weeks.
Well, the bits are just about there, as in you’ll see them by Monday, and I have a lot of writing to do once they are out there, but in the meantime, I had to post this aside about last week’s episode of Lost since I just read Ed’s post and left my comments there.
Anyway, easily the best episode of the year and, perhaps, the series!
(Oh, and Claire looked hot after getting blowed up.)
ATHF: Fruits
+4
So, I think it just takes the Dave and Matt a handful of episodes to hit their stride because they have been on a roll. Born Again drug addict fruit. Shake flipping us off at least twice (in the background). Carl with a tie. Yup, it is all there for the taking…
Frisky
As in Dingo. Frisky Dingo.
It means nothing to do with the show. Which is funny, right? Yes.
I was gonna steal “Frisky Business” from this week’s Entertainment Weekly sidelight… um, blurb(?)… well whatever, it is under “Critic’s Corner” in the DVD section and written by Ken Tucker (I’m assuming that’s who KT is… which the on-line version confirms). Phew… but I didn’t.
Anyway, this is validation, no? I love that he gives Dingo a straight “A” and with this to back me up, I will again beg you to watch this show! Eleven minutes people! That’s it. These are quick things. Program your DVR to record them and enjoy at your leasure. Continue reading »
Lost: Meet Kevin Johnson
Yay! The return of Libby! She’s a hottie.
Okay, I figured I’d get that out of the way first. On to the point, which is, my comments on the last episode before the break are on Ed’s post. Let’s do a checkpoint on what I was right and wrong about.
Oceanic Six: My original three guesses were wrong (Locke, Sawyer, Desmond). I did add Sayid by episode 2 and by episode 3, I had Michael in the mix and added Sun. I didn’t add Aaron until the reveal, so he doesn’t count. I think my biggest victories were some Others being off-island and how Michael comes to be on the freighter.
Lost: Ji Yeon
As I said in my comments, I talked to Ed right after last week’s episode, so while I did read his post the day it came out… I think the minute it came out (I even did proof-reading detail for him), I didn’t leave any comments until today. So, they are there.
That overly wordy sentence was an attempt to think up something about one of the island hotties as I typed, but nothing came to mind. Um… so, Juliet was actually still looking pretty ill with the dirt and cuts and all… yeah.
