Don’t worry… this post contains no spoilers. I couldn’t spoil you if I wanted to.
The series finale of ABC’s Lost airs on Sunday evening and so (hopefully) does my confusion. I consider myself a Lost fan for sure, but I’m not a Lost geek. The distinction is minor, but one that’s important to make between fans. As an example, I have no problem sitting in a bar talking theories with my buddy Pat about who did what or what’s going to happen and I do listen to the Official Lost Podcast as well as The Lost Podcast With Jay… Continue reading
Tonight is the season finale of V on ABC and I’m thrilled to say that it’s just the season finale and not the SERIES finale. There was a time there where I was very worried that V would not be picked up for another season based on how it was doing in the ratings. Now that it has been picked up, the writers better make some serious changes if they want to get to a third season. Here are some suggestions from someone who was a HUGE fan of the original as well as this new incarnation.
- Show the damn… Continue reading
Last night the finale of Survivor: Heroes vs. Villains aired on CBS and for the second time, Sandra Diaz-Twine was named the winner. Also for the second time, the best player in the history of the game came up short. I’ve watched every single episode in the 20 seasons of Survivor and I’m confident in saying that Russell Hantz is the best player ever. Period, end of story. The game’s tag line is “Outwit, Outlast, Outplay” and Russell does that better than anyone in history.
On the reunion show last night, Jeff Probst asked Sandra if since she was the… Continue reading
Championships are part of the show in professional wrestling. They don’t really tell who the best wrestler is. They’re there as props or to move the storyline along. I don’t get upset when my favorite wrestlers win or lose titles cause I know that’s not what it’s about. That said, the WWE has made a decision recently that I simply cannot understand.
A couple of weeks back, relative newcomer Sheamus pulled an upset and defeated WWE Champion John Cena for the title. I (like most WWE fans) gave an audible “huh” when this happened. I’m all for giving young guys… Continue reading
I leave the house at exactly the same time every morning (give or take 2 or 3 minutes). The morning routine is the same:
- Get ready for work
- Talk to the G-man
- Get milk for the boys
- Take dog out
- Kiss G & Mom goodbye
- Head out
For some reason, my commute time in the last couple of weeks has gone up by about 10 or 15 minutes. The obvious culprit is that school is back in session now. But here’s my question… where the hell does everyone go in the summer? I mean sure I know that kids aren’t… Continue reading
This post contains no spoilers whatsoever on the upcoming season…
I (like countless others out there) am a HUGE fan of the ABC show Lost. There are certainly others out there who are more fanatical than I am. For example I’ll listen to a couple of podcasts about the show but I’m not one to re-watch an episode looking for stuff I’ve missed. If I missed it, I missed it. Part of the reason I love it so much is that it’s one of only a few shows that both the wife and I enjoy. That said I’m thinking… Continue reading
If you haven’t seen it yet, here’s the video from last night’s Oregon vs. Boise State where Legarrette Blount sucker punches Byron Hout. Kind of ironic that this game began with a pre-game handshake which was to represent good sportsmanship in this college football season. Absolutely crazy. In my opinion this dude should be suspended for at least a couple of games…
Time Warner FAIL
Last night was the series finale of Lost on ABC. We pulled together an impromptu viewing party (OK, so it was the in-laws, the wife and I, but that’s still a gathering dammit) and settled in to watch one of the most beautiful shows on TV come to an end. That is until Time Warner Cable got involved. The high definition feed was so bad that we eventually had to switch over to the regular feed. That was OK as we were able to watch the story unfold, but let’s be honest. Part of what makes Lost so visually stunning… Continue reading →
