Sadie, Neela

The O.C was quite good.Sadie is the latest gal to fall for Chino boy and she is ssssmoking, toss up as to who is hotter her and Marissa.Ryan finally decided it was not his business what Marissa did as he was or is not her girlfriend so hence she is no longer his responsibility.Marissa unfortunately is spiralling out of control as she is now taking cocaine from that douchebag surfer dude.That dude who worked for sandy got beaten up after threatening to go to the media with proof that that doctor had some shady dealings.Overall it was a good episode with lots of drama as it should be.

E.R was very good.This is a show I have been watching for what seems like a lifetime. The cast nowadays is fresh and entertaining with Pratt philandering around, Neela fleeing feelings she may have for her roommate, plus the stories are still strong last night's episode featured a girl having a bad reaction to extasy and a deaf black dude getting beaten up by cops what else is new? Otherwise the episode was very good especially the part where Neela's roommate tried to stop her from moving out by saying she was the best friend he had ever had with both of them knowing that the last thing he felt for Neela was friendship, he was or is into her big time.Should make for some interesting moments in the ER or when Gallant gets back, actually it would be good for Gallant to see his wife having feelings for another dude it would make him realise exactly how lucky he is to have her.Anyway it was a good night may we have many more.....

Lost, The Evidence

Lost was good as always.We got to see a bit more about John and also saw something interesting in the hatch, when blue light illuminates the steel doors there was a diagram of some sort.Should be interesting to see what it means later on.Sayeed and his cronies found the baloon as expected and also the grave.However the grave contained a dead dude called Gale the name the captured dude claims is his so he is in for some serious explaining about who he really is.It was amusing to see Jack clean out Sawyer in Poker he was not too pleased.

I forgot to mention last week that I checked out this show The Evidence with Rob Estes and Orlando Jones and I must say it is quite good.The format is fresh where you are given the evidence at the start even before the detectives I think it is a good show and would like to see it succeed.I attempted to watch Heist last week but unfortunately I was dissappointed am a fan of Steve harris from the practice days however this show is just too much italian job, ocean's eleven mixture that falls flat.It got good reviews however as I was watching I kept on rembering ocean's eleven and italian job, I got fed up and switched to the evidence which I found much more enjoyable.I also watched Sideways and had a good time.Virgina madsen is hot , it was a fun movie that I would recommend, Paul Giammati is an underated actor and will win some awards soon.Have a good evening.

Must watch monday's

Prison break is back and looking good as usual.It took a long hiatus but am glad it's back plus it gives you something to warm up as you await bauer hour.Michael Scoffield is now looking for a new way to break out unfortunately he has hit a snafu as part of his back got burnt as he was loitering looking for another way out.This is a good show and I hope it gets better and better.

Bauer hour was very good.Audrey was severely interogated by Jack and the CTU chemical man.I like the way this show always ends with you wanting more.That new chick who has come to take over from Edgar seems to have some issues, it will be interesting to see what happens especially considering she will be working closely with the snappish Chloe.Looking forward to next week as always have a good one....

Amusing, Conviction,

Well deal or no deal is becoming amusing nowaday's, with people turning down six figure deals and leaving with much much less in some instances less than $500.For me it would take a lot to turn down over $100k unless I have somehow avoided all the big money from $200k - $1mill even if I end up taking the $100k and leaving $1mill am satisfied.Will it be dissappointing? yes however six figures will go a long way in bettering my life in a big way.

Conviction is actually a nice quality show that livens up Friday's which traditionally suck big time.The stories seem to be interesting and the personal aspect of the prosecutors is much needed and well written.There was no new GA episode this weekend which sucked coz that is a must watch show.What's up with lost? they seem to bring a few new episodes then dissappear for weeks on end not a good thing to do especially considering the whole structure of the show some people may get fed up with the constant reruns and decide to get it on dvd later on.

In other news one of my favourite shows on the former WB Everwood comes back today at possibly the worst time slot ever.It's airing 2 back to back new episodes unfortunately it will be up against Prison Break which makes its comeback today then takes on 24 later on.It's really too bad coz the show is filled with great characters and the writing is top notch.I really really hope it does well and is brought back when CW is launched in the fall.

Otherwise its 2 hrs from Audrey getting choked by Jack so adios cya later amigos.

The following takes place between...........

24 was balling as usual.A lot happened but the gist of it was martial law was declared in the city of los angeles.That hot babe who gave bierko the schematics was captured although she eventually got immunity.The best part was when she said who sold the schematics to her..........Audrey Raines.Hehe can't wait for next week when Jack interrogates her should be interesting indeed.For the first time or second time someone made a bad deal in the game show deal or no deal, one of the contestants cases had a cool half mill ouch.Well $109k is not chump change so kudos to him.Looking forward to watching The Unit, I missed last weeks episode also looking forward to the evidence and heist hope they are good shows.
Adios.

Deal, Lord of War, The Manchurian Candidate

Deal or no deal is quite the addictive show.I like NBC'S move of limiting it to 2-3 nights a week.It's amusing to see people get greedy and turn down hundreds of thousands of guranteed money and leave with much less.

Lord of war is a Nic cage movie about an arms dealer and is based on true events.Am a fan of Nic cage and think he acts well.In this movie we see just how big business arms dealing is.We also see just how dangerous it can be.This was an interesting good movie which I recommend you see.

The Manchurian Candidate is a very good movie.Denzel stars as a captain who was part of a plot to implant a drone to power.Denzel gives a good performance when does he never? Liev Shreiber does a good job together with Meryl Streep.At the end of the movie I wondered if what I saw is capable of happening in this day and age and figured why not? the technology is there am sure but the thought of this happening is sickening can you imagine having the power to control a president of the most powerful nation in the world? frightening as you can see.Have a good one.

Spartan, Mindhunters

Spartan is a David Mamet written and directed good movie.Val kilmer gives a great performance as a serious FBI guy whose job is to locate the missing daughter of the president of the united states.There is a twist in the movie that is interesting but the movie as a whole worked for me as I enjoyed it as I thought I would.I recommend you check it out.

Mindhunters is about a group of FBI profilers who are put on an island by the feds for a training exercise in profiling serial killers however it all goes awry as someone starts profiling them and starts killing them one by one.The story was actually interesting however I think it would have been better with other actors in my opinion.Christian Slater and LL cool J were ok but the others were not as interesting.I recommend it however you will forget about this movie pretty quickly.Tv is filled with reruns so I didn't watch much I missed The Unit though which blows o well I will catch it next time.Cya all later adios amigos.............

Grey's and DH

Grey's anatomy was good as per usual.O'malley is giving Meredith the cold war treatment which is not speaking and avoiding her altogether which is quite amusing.In other news that chick who is interested in O'malley has given him one more shot to hook up, he better not blow it.Meredith told Shepard that she slept with O'malley which I found interesting, he feigned slight disinterest but at the end before he left you could see he felt something.Meanwhile his wife is trying so hard to make her marriage work.I guess that's what you gotta do if you really love somebody, I know, I know its tv however I mean in general.Hockey players are indeed tough SOB'S apparently they are immune to pain as evidenced by that hockey dude who broke his finger then in a insane moment cut it off following instructions from some internet site so that he could play in a game the next day.Izzy is getting too involved with that congestive heart failure patient which always ends badly.Otherwise this is now the must watch show on network tv.Ofcourse the must watch show on Sunday on all mediums is The Sopranos.

DH was interesting as well.Bree apparently has a drinking problem that seems like will get worse especially after going to AA meetings then drinking afterwards.Her son trying to get emancipated so that he could get access to his trustfund was amusing and also insane.He had his lover punch him so that he could claim his mum had hit him in a drunken stupor,creativity knows no bounds.Susan's doctor lover found out that apparently she is still in love with Mike.Otherwise all eyes are on 24 today, last episode was one of the best ever, fasten your seatbelts and lets go............

Thhhhhhe Unit, Denny Crane

The Unit got of to a good start primarily coz of Dennis Haybert he is the engine running that show.The way they showed the lives the wives live is what will make or break the show.There are too many shows like e-ring that were too into we are badasss and lost half of their audience due to being too techno with jargon and stuff.I like the way the unit guys just ignored the feds like they were local cops or something that was funny.Ratings were solid so lets see how it holds up next week and weeks to come.

Boston Legal is just too funny, Denny is just hilarious in other news Jolie Bowen is hot.That is all good night.

Best show on network tv period!

24 was too good yesterday.Kim got to find out that her dad is very much alive, terrorists having the cajones to put a canister of nerve gas in C.T.U!!, Edgar dying right infront of everyone as they watch helplessly, what a riveting two hours last night was.So riveting infact that for the first time 24 ended with silence there was no ticking of the seconds which was a classic touch.The writing on this show is levels above any show currently airing may be on par with Grey's Anatomy in my opinion.

I watched a tad of Deal Or No Deal where I saw a dude get insanely unlucky, he kept on opeining cases with mucho dinero and eventually left with $25k.N.B.C waved the white flag this week and will air this show on Monday's and Friday's as it was getting slaughtered by American Idol as is everygthing in that timeslot.It's safe to say Simon is worth or is atleast paying the studio back every dime, whatever he requests he will more likely get as the ratings are through the roof and without Simon there is no idol, a fact those honchos at Fox better realise in future negotiations.Today there is the debut of The Unit which has possibly the best producers on the tv landsacpe Shawn Ryan of the Shield and David Mamet.It will be interesting to see how far Ryan can push a network gig as he is used to the safe haven of cable, casting Dennis Haybert was a genius move the guy is just too good in whatever he does.Unfortunately it is up against House but that's not too bad better House than Idol.Cya tomorrow folks.............

Conviction, Crash

Conviction is a new show by Dick Wolf on NBC about young prosecutors.My first impression is it is alright.Still early although being on Friday is tough considering how difficult it is to find an audience at the end of the week.The cast looks good, hot chicks, good looking guys, the stories are what will carry the show so they better have good writers or the show will be found Guilty and sentenced to cancellation.

The Oscars were on yesterday and Jon Stewart hosted quite well.I found him funny almost all the time.The show went as expected until three 6 mafia not only won an oscar for original score, but also performed.This was huge for hip hop as the academy voters are normally seen as stuffy old peeps so for them to give three 6 mafia the oscar and let them perform was probably the main thing I will remember from the oscars.Jennifer Garner almost fell which would have been amusing considering how she does her own difficult stunts on Alias.Gotta give kudos to George Clooney here is a guy who is a mega star now has an oscar but still acts like he is still languishing in ER, thats what people like about him the most, he doesn't take himself too seriously.

Crash blindsiding brokeback mountain was well deserved.I watched Crash some time ago and to this day consider it one of the best movies I have ever seen.Pity Don Cheadle couldn't be there as he was part of the producing group, probably didn't expect it to win.Just goes to show that a movie can always gain momentum at the right time and produce an upset.Altman's acceptance speech was quite good most of the time I just flip channels as the speeches are sometimes actually often long and boring but he kept me hooked all the way upto the end.That woman Dianna Osanna is quite beautiful but was so serious after winning her oscar it was too bad, smile woman you just won an Oscar! she should have taken a cue from the three 6 mafia dudes who were so elated and happy they had the audience buzzing even Jon said why isn't everybody as excited as they are? Overall I enjoyed watching the show, am a huge movie fan so this is my favourite award show.Well onto this week time for 2 hrs of 24 weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee..........

Deal or no deal, The Interpreter

This show deal or no deal can be amusing at times for example the other night one woman turned down as much as $162k and left with $5.Then the next night another woman managed to roll her way to $407k however if she didn't take the deal she could have rolled her way to a cool mill unbelievable indeed.The top prize is also increasing and is at $2.5mill soon to reach $3mill by friday ofcourse this show is all about how lucky you get so that you can sqeeeze as much money as you can from the banker.

The Interpreter is a good movie.Sean penn and Nicole kidman give good performances the story is well written and movie well acted, I recommend you check it out.

Well this weekend its all about the oscars although there is a new show called conviction on NBC unfortunately premiering on a friday is a tough sell hopefully it finds an audience from the clips I have seen it looks good but I will give a better review on monday.
