Things on Tv That annoy me

1. Ads, I know this is how networks make their money but I still loathe them to a high degree.

2. The Movie trailer announcer saying that this is the best movie in ten years blah blah blah.

3. The Movie critic from a paper you have never heard of giving a movie 5 stars.

4. The Bachelor, The nanny, Wife Swap, all garbage we could do without.

5. The Cw cancelling Everwood to showcase Runaway, cancelled already go figure.

6. The Cw slowrolling Veronica Mars and taking forever to pick up episodes, this is the best show they have and they have no idea, ratings aside they cancel this show the CW ceases to exist atleast for me.

7. How long it takes shows on HBO or cable for that matter to be available on dvd.

8. The lack of attention from viewers The Wire gets possibly one of the best dramas ever made.

9. HBO's decision to cancel Deadwood, bad bad idea.

10. Over saturation of the same drama see CSI MIAMI, NY.The original CSI is still the best.

11. Lack of quality programs on Friday's and Saturday's.

There are many more ams sure you have thought of feel free to add some.

The Brotherhood

Hi hope you all had a good thanksgiving weekend.I had a good one and watched the first season of The Brotherhood.This is a show on Showtime about two brothers on opposite ends of the law one is a congressman the other is a hoodlum.The story is well written and acted and I enjoyed the first season very much and am glad it will be back next season.Michael Caffey kicks ass big time nice ending of the first season too will make you anticipate season 2 .Cable owns all other television media that is all.

Smallville

Well I finished watching last season's Smallville recently.I have followed Smallville all the way from the first episode and am glad it has lasted this long.I think the most appealing thing about Smallville besides the actors is that Clark Kent doesn't change into that darn cape and tights, it's much better this way.The story also unfolds quite well, the babes are hot see Lana, Chloe, Lois.The Luthors are ruthless as well Lex does a great job treading the line of friend and foe.In this season Chloe knows Clark's secret and is amazed at what he can do.Clark and Lana's relationship goes through tough times mainly because Lana is tired of not being told the truth by Clark, She ends up getting dumped by Clark and runs to the one person she really shouldn't run to.

There is a death in Smallville that changes a few things,plus lots of characters with different abilities courtesy of the meteor shower.We also learn that there is a different kind of kryptonian rock that has a different effect on Clark compared to the red and green rocks.The best episode is saved for the last one and ends in a cliff hanger as usual.All in all it was a great season and am happy it still continues to kick ass after all these years especially being on a small network.

In other news Prison Break is kicking ass as usual.Studio 60 is getting better,Friday night Lights continues to be one of the best new shows people are missing out on,Dancing with the Stars is over with Emmit Smith winning, I could see this coming a mile away.People were going to vote for the most charming guy not necessarily the most talented and that sucks for Mario cause there is nothing else really he could have done to win see Stacy Kiebler last season.Good for Cherly she has led her partners to victory she is good and hot too.Those chicks bodies are sick-in a good way.I had neglected Law and Order SVU cause I was tired of the procedurals, however I watched an episode last weekend and on Tuesday this week and I must say if there is any Law and Order you watch this is a must, yes it is pretty grim at times but it is also good.Mariska is good and I hope she comes back soon even though Connie Nielson is doing a good job.

Speaking of chicks according to some reports Michele Rodriguez of multiple arrests fame is gay? or bi? who knows apparently Kristana Loken of T3 fame is in a relationship with her.Interesting, also apparently that Harriet chick on Studio 60 is also gay, have to say there are some attractive gay chicks out there Kristana being among them.That's all folks am currently plowing through last season's Las Vegas have a nice weekend.

Veronica Mars season 2

Wadup! finished up season 2 and it was quite good.This show is very well written with great witty comedy added in as well.I am amazed it struggles in getting audiences it really shouldn't.I hope it builds an audience and is not shelved as that would suck.It is the only thing I can stomach to watch on the CW this and One Tree Hill.The CW made a bone head decision to cancel Everwood which was one of the best shows on tv let alone on the WB, it's replacement? Runaway which has been cancelled already what a joke.In this season of Vmars we get to see who blew up the bus and sent it over a cliff, once again you will never guess who it turns out to be, so got watch immediately.

I have just realised that not many show this fall are must see other than Heroes and Friday Night lights also Studio 60 barely only because this weeks episode was quite good.No wonder shows are struggling it's tough nowadays to create a show that generates viewers, they seem to be bored or are sticking to old shows.It is always amazing that peeps will rather watch Dancing with the Stars than scripted shows, this is troubling to say the least.Anyway am starting Smallville season 5 so hopefully it kicks ass I have followed this show from season one so am glad it's alive and well.Lost went into a break until Feb which is risky especially if Daybreak bombs hopefully peeps will still be around next year and not defect to Criminal Minds which they seem to be doing already.Have a good weekend and happy veterans day to all you vets out there.

100th post

Hi can't believe this is my hundredth post, amazing.Well I have been watching Veronica Mars season one all this time.At first I ignored all the solid reviews this show got also the fact that it came close to being cancelled due to lack of viewers made me wary, getting hooked on a show only for it to be cancelled or last only one season blows so I gave it a wide berth.Fortunately it is still on the air and hopefully continues on as it is one of the better written shows on tv for sure.

The first season features a season long mystery as to who killed Veronica's best friend Lilly Kane, who also happened to be her ex's sister.All in all V was also dealing with trials and tribulations of living with one parent her dad and trying to figure out what happened on one night where she was allegedly raped after being drugged.As the season unfolded we get to meet certain characters, her best buddy, her ex Duncan Kane, his best friend Longan Eckeles, "weevil".The mystery surrounding what happened to Lilly Kane was exceptionally played out especially the last two episodes where I thought things were unravelling a little too quickly only to be thrown a nice change up, lets just say that whoever you think killed Lilly Kane is incorrect.I was thoroughly entertained and am now venturing into season two,hopefully it will be as good if not better than season one.Please watch this show it always amazes me at how good shows are generally ignored hopefully it goes on for atleast 5 seasons it deserves to, Kristin Bell is very good and cute too.

In other news Ecko was killed in Lost last night which was a rather good episode, pity to see him go.Anyone find it interesting that all the actors that got DUI'S are all gone hmm.Heroes is going along quite nicely with the story unfolding well, I wonder what powers Micah will show...Ali Larter looking good as always, the cheerleader's dad looking creepier everyday.Friday Night Lights looking good as usual street's chick is uber hot damn, even that other waitress chick who slept with that oil dude is hot,am not quite sure why I enjoy the games even though they are predictable I find myself rooting for them hard especially Saracen who had been enveloped in Street's shadow forever.I don't know if I mentioned that I watched an episode of Shark and was actually impressed, am a fan of James Woods and am glad he is on tv.I gave up on Vanished and Kidnapped after I saw they were going to the slaughter house no use getting invested in shows that will not be back.Jericho is also coming along well although I wish they focused more on what happened out there.Prison Break is also interesting with T-bag fleeing with the dough then gettting captured by those ex prison guards, T-bag is one slimy dude but he is not dumb.Linc and his kid getting captured is lame hopefully they can escape somehow.That fed is one smart dude he seems smarted than your regular fed no offense.Isaiah Washington apologised for his remarks after a huge hullabaloo, hopefully they can work out any issues they have cause that's a great show.Well that's all I have been upto hopefully I will be around to write another hundred, peace.
