Hell I've Been Busy

This semester has been tough not just the classes but the endless reports and projects. So infrequent updates for you!

Back to TV I've seen three new shows:
Jericho a great show about a small town apparently surviving a full nuclear world war.
Men In Trees a good show but in a bad time slot so I couldn't keep watching it so it off my TiVo list.
Heroes horrible first episode but I know it has been "retooled" so I'll keep watching.

Old shows return:
ER had the best premiere.
Grey's Anatomy is great.
Everything else is on tape or TiVo and I'll watch it during the weekend.

I'm looking forward to Dexter a Showtime drama about a serial killer.

Lately I've been annoyed with the state of TV. Mostly dealing with the damned logos on the bottom and news crawl during shows but that is a huge rant for another day. I understand the what really is going on.

To all the regulars I lost everyones blog addresses so that is why I haven't visited anyone so if you want to drop a line go ahead if not sorry.

Niether Gone or Forgotten

On this the 5th year after the attack on America by Muslim terrorist there is more videos of these modern day monsters planning the attacks.

Television captured the horror of the day and I hope the justice against these enemies of freedom will also be televised.Children did die that day but many more lost there center, fathers, mothers and loved ones.

It's anger that fills me today sadness comes later when looking outside the window with a skyline forever changed.

Addiction Recovery

Hello my name is Man and I am a TV addict.

For years I would watch up to 5 shows at the same time now I have a busy life and have only been watching what I actually care about.

Why the change? Easy because of great shows like Surface that only lasted a half season. Also good shows like The 4400 that turned to crap but more important most of this semester classes invovle computer assignments which leaves me little time to watch TV.

So my new policy is just watch returning shows and only a few new ones the others are probably going to cancelled and available for free on YouTube in case I every really want to watch them.

I look forward to watch Jericho on CBS, Men In Trees on ABC and any show I watched last season.

Now for some brief reviews:
House: Meaning
6 weeks after emerging from a medicaly induced coma House is fine and healthy he treats 2 patients, one of which was Claire Kramer better known as Glory/Glorificus from Buffy. Soon though House notices he has some pain and gets himself some pills. I was kind of disappointed that they didn't show his path to recovery or the results of the patients from the season finale.

Stargate SG-1: Memento Mori
Vala gets her memory wiped by a Goa'uld and becomes a waitress. The story center around Vala's trust issues and was nicely done. At the end she officially becomes part of the team.

Stargate Atlantis: McKay & Mrs. Miller
Very cool episode dealing with McKay's personal issues and featuring his sister. Which was played by his Hewitt's(Mckay) REAL LIFE SISTER. That was cool watch it again if you did not know this before and you'll see the brother-sister chemistry between them. We also meet a cooler version of Dr. Mckay from a parallel universe. Also a very touching episode about family and friends. Who knew nerds were so sentimental. I guess thats why it took the almost destruction of 2 universes to bring out the emotions.

Steve Irwin Died In Australia

According to news sources the crocodile hunter Steve Irwin was killed by a sting-ray when swimming off the coast of Australia. His wife has yet to be officially notified. The sting-ray bard is dedly and struck him in the chest.

That is beyond awful, he was so young and had such great energy and love for life. He leaves behind a great wife, two kids and millions of fans as well as a better piece of Earth then when he started.

Windfall: Series Finale

Sad ending everyone is broken up with there true loves and Frankie got kidnapped by either the evil Russians or her psycho dad.

Why now?

As some may see Blogger finally is allowing HTML but now I'm back in college and have little time to figure out there new HTML.

I still haven't got my Google back, I don't know how to Javascript in this new fromat.

School update I've spent $233.00 on two books and I need 3 more.

Rescue Me actual season finale was Tuesday and it was great. Everyone finally told the truth and decided to stay a unit then Tommy got ambushed by the crazy widow and him and her are trapped in a burning building.

Most disturbing scene was with a brother and sister doing the probie.

Summer Season Is Over

Kyle XY: Endgame
Kyle's obviously fake parents claim there so with a DNA test and some photos.
Foss turns about to be a hero who tells Kyle to go with the fake parents if he wants answers. Kyle then has a tarful goodbye with his adopteed family and Declan.
At his new destination he finds a guy whp looks just like him except 20 years older, played by J. Eddie Peck.
At the evil center the unamed bad guys vow to kill Kyle while they stand over a chamber contain a Kyle XX--a girl clone?



The 4400: Fifty-Fifty
The big battle between Jordan Collier and Isabelle begins. Except Collier is above these petty things and has a shape-shifter take his place and blow up all the governments new soldiers.
Isabelle survives and is mad. She is about to kill Tom when her dad injects her with the future drug and she is rendered powerless.
Good episode overall with Collier handing out the superhero potions to everyone who wants it which includes Tom's son and Diana's sister.
Then out of no where Tom's wife gets abducted by the future people.

Best episode of the season.

The Dead Zone: The Hunting Party
Silly storyline about a hunting trip an accidental shooting and the Vice-President.

Rescue Me: Hell
A strong but funny epsiode showing Tommy losing more loved ones.

Lucky Louie: Kim Moves Out
Louie fights with his angry wife to the point that they must separate. They realize that their marriage is based on hate and resolve to stick it out because that is their version of happy.

Great show, very funny I hope it gets renewed.

Only Windfall is left on Thursday and that show has no future.

Emmy Voters Hate TV

Start with the a bad decision

OUTSTANDING LEAD ACTRESS IN A COMEDY SERIES

Lisa Kudrow (The Comeback)
Jane Kaczmarek (Malcolm in the Middle)
Julia Louis-Dreyfus (The New Adventures of Old Christine)----Winner
Stockard Channing (Out of Practice)
Debra Messing (Will & Grace)

Jane Kaczmarek (Malcolm in the Middle) should of won and I was in shock that once again she gets overlooked.


The Emmys hosted by Conan O'Brian was great and finished on time, hell early. His opening skit running through different shows was great especially the House visit.


OUTSTANDING SUPPORTING ACTRESS IN A COMEDY
Was won by that Megan Mullally (Will and Grace) even though Jamie Pressly (My Name Is Earl) is clearly better.

Then 3 straight shows won that I never watch, Huff, Entourage and West Wing.

The Daily Show won two, Tony Shalhoub-Monk also won.

The great Mariska Hargitay (Law and Order: SVU) won and she told everyone that her baby's name is August, a boy.

OUTSTANDING DRAMA SERIES-24-Yes
OUTSTANDING LEAD ACTOR IN A DRAMA SERIES-Kiefer Sutherland (24)-Yes
OUTSTANDING COMEDY SERIES-The Office-NO, over Arrested Development is ridiculous.

I hate the award shows mostly because the real actors get overlooked over secret Hollywood agendas. Of the 13 categories I care about 7 were wrongly awarded and six were okay.

Shock and Awe

I WANT MY HTML!!!!
Before the semester starts!!!

Let me keep it short.

Kyle XY getting real good.

Rescue Me is exciting and odd beyond belief. In other words I like it.

Okay 2 books for this semester add up to $182.80 in used condition now I must go back online and hunt for cheap ones with fast delivery. AAAHH I still have 4 more books after these 2.

Season Premiere Time

Prison Break: Manhunt
The seven escapees lost there Plan A(Abruzzi's jet) and must fall back to Scofield's Plan B. Terrence Steadman who was played by John Billingsley is now being played by someone else. Veronica Dononvan finds the alleged dead guy, calls the police and gets a bullet in her brain for her troubles. She is chopped up and disappeared by the government.
William Fichtner credited as Bill Fichtner is the new officer in charge of retrieving the escapees. He is smart and figures out the tattoo is a map but keeps falling short.
I believe there also was a hidden message on the paper swan that the doctor had.

There's a plan
to make all
of this right

Treasure Hunters: The Final Three Teams Compete
The Geniuses win, thank goodness. Good show very nice to see all the American historical sites.

I know for a fact that if there is a season 2 it will be more of a physical challenge and fill with whorish-actor-wannabes and models.

Stargates

Stargate Special
A clip show featuring Gary Jones who plays Chief Mst Sgt. Walter Harriman who is wondering will he be in the 200th episode. They show lots of funny clips and previews of the 200th episode.

Stargate SG-1: 200
Just as expected it was a funny take on the Sci-Fi with Willie Garson as Martin Lloyd the alien with a Hollywood agebda. He is pitching the mvie version of Wormhole X-treme and needs approval of the SG-1 team. Everyone has their own take on the script the best being a Farscape joke. Lots of laughs that no doubt is on Youtube and a dozen websites.

The puppet scene went on way to long.


Stargate Atlantis: The Real World
A continuation of last weeks episodes with Dr. Weir under a coma made by replicants. The first half hour has her on Earth trying to save herself from the loony bin as everyone tells her that Atlantis isn't real. O'Neill plays a bad version of himself trying to control her mind.
Very well split and nice to see Earth again. Of course she wins.
