TV
I have been watching TV shows online. There are various places and maybe at another time I will talk about what places those are. Right now I am going to mention the shows that I have been watching that have not brought the suck. And considering that most things on the boob tube make you feel dumber after watching, make you wish you could have the time back, and actually have no boobs in it (the biggest crime of them all). I have found a few things worth watching.
My Name is Earl. I resisted watching this show at first. Not because I had anything against it, I just don't like to watch new shows. New shows have a way of sucking or being way cool and then they go away. Also, after having Netflix, I don't like waiting for a show every week. I like to see everything on my time, not waiting for a network to serve it up to me.Anyway, My Name is Earl, about a guy who was a scumbag, wins the lottery, and decides to change his ways because of Karma. I am cutting out a lot of stuff here but you should really check this show out. It is very funny and sarcastic and the supporting cast is very good. This is definitely one of those shows that you can watch over and over. At least in my opinion. And if you are reading this you must be a little interested in my opinion, or bored out of your fucking mind.
Good Eats. Yes, it is a cooking show. Yes, you can learn stuff. Yes, I said it is a fucking cooking show. Just watch it, it's not your standard cooking show. I like it. If you don't, I don't care.Terminator-The Sara Connor Chronicles. It is like a spin off of the movies. So I thought it would bring the suck. It didn't. I can't say it is a great show. It is watchable. I guess it matters what direction that they take the show in. It also matter whether they even bring the show back for another season. I think it was one of those series that made it to TV because of the writer's strike. If it comes back I will watch it, if it doesn't I don't think I would miss it.American Gladiators. What can I say. I liked this show before and I like it now. There are two problems-- the show should have more violence. I want to see the contestants get fucked up. I also think that if a Gladiator doesn't perform well, he should be executed. Hey, if you call yourself a Gladiator you need to be ready for the thumbs down from Caesar. The second thing is the guy who does the play by play. Random voice guy needs to be dismembered and nailed to the Wall as a warming to all future announcers that you will be held accountable for your sucking.Well that is it for me tonight. I talked about TV. I named some shows I recently watched. Maybe I will find something else good to watch. But no reality shows. God no. Fuck no. I am going to bed. Laterzzz...
Oh, and watch the news. And read it. And not just from one source. Think about who is saying what, and what is their reason for saying it. Make up your own damn mind. Laterzzz part 2...
