Television is fucking lame. reality T.V. is garbage and peopel who are addicted to that shit, should really get their own lives.

Me & my roomies chose not to have cable... so the extent of my television viewing is "fear factor" wich is on late (the only cool reality t.v. show) I also watch the 11 0'clock news.

My roomate works at an online dvd store so he brings home a lot of t.v. shows on DVD like Chappelles Show, Trailer Park Boys, Sex & the City, Curb your enthusiasm.. and I watch those randomly on my own time...which can be hardly ever.

Television is the last resort, when there's absolutely nothting to do.

I used to watch a lot more TV when there was an NHL.. :(

Now I console myself with basketball highlights and the occasional soccer match.

When it's not sports, it's any number of animated shows (Simpsons, King of the Hill, Family Guy, plus teletoon has some dope stuff).. and IRON CHEF!

I don't catch Arrested Development on TV that often, but I borrowed the season one DVD from cubed and I wanted to have sex with it.

So, he takes out the cast one-by-one until finally, Horatio bursts in and shoots him up, making sure not to get the suit he's wearing dirty. And then, he'd take his sunglasses off, turn and face the camera, put a cigar in his mouth and say, "That's crime scene investigation, Miami style, bitch." Oh man, that'd be sweet. Now that's good TV. Wow, I should be a writer or something, huh?
i think he'd probably say something along the lines of, "we never close" after he kills grissom.

but it would be a kick ass episode.

i watch too much tv. it's just such a pleasant way to tune out, disengage after being forced to use your mind all day.

god, thinking about the hours wasted in front of tv and in front of dumb online message boards... my wasted life. :(

Following is taken from Bill Simmons (Boston Sports Guy)'s website:

"If you missed "Spring Break Shark Attack," you missed a good time, highlighted by an out-of-the-'80s "date rape drug" subplot, horrible CGI, an inane plot, Shannon Lucio jiggling around in her bathing suit like a redheaded Suzanne Somers (and winning the Jennifer Love Hewitt Memorial "Did she always have those?" award, as my editor Brick points out), and the classic moment when Bryan Brown (responsible for the shark attack because he chummed the waters of a rival beach to drive people to his beach) staring out to the water as dozens of swimmers were getting eaten alive, then calmly saying, "This wasn't supposed to happen." Was he talking about the sharks or his career after "FX2"? We may never know. Needless to say, I loved it. Final grade: A-plus."

Damn... guess I should have tuned in.

I'm watchin Showcase channel (east feed) and they have a artsy French movie on (Le Pornographe) about a XXX movie director who wants a different job, and they actually have the naughty parts and it looks real.

This must be a first time thing for Showcase, never seen that before on a non-pay channel. They probably have had this in Europe a long time already.

The 1982 movie Diva is on CBC tonight at about midnight. IMO this is one of the coolest flix of the 1980's.

It's about a young guy who makes a bootleg tape of an opera singer, using his "Nagra" recorder. Then gangsters try to get the tape so they can sell it to music junkies in Asia. Lots of subplots and interesting characters.

It's on right now on eastern CBC channels for those with a satellite dish. It's a French movie that's been dubbed, the subtitle version is better but this is OK too.

Mon- 24, Las Vegas

Wed- America's Next Top Model, Simple Life: Interns

Thurs- The OC, The Apprentice

Sun- The Simpsons

Its sad that half the shit we watch in my house is reality tv. Watching real people suffer, cry, and bitch eachother out is somehow more satisfying to watch.
