Sorry for abandoning my 3 followers and the constant appearance of gruesome spelling or grammatical errors. Whenever I remember this blog exists I try to breeze through it by writing a quick post. I guess that means I must not really care about this blog anymore. However, if that were true I wouldn't bother writing at all, so lets just settle for I care about this blog somewhat but I'm kinda lazy in following up with it.
So now that the explanation is out of the way, I'll get to the tv I've been watching. I should also mention I'm in Paris now so that is gonna be even more of a reason why you probably wont hear much from me for a few months after this post. Well lately I was on winter break and during that I took it upon myself to familiarize myself with almost all of the Soap operas on tv or should I say four soaps currently on the air and one soap that was canceled. The soaps are The Young and The Restless, One life to live, Days of Our lives, General Hospital and Passions.
Some of these soaps already had a special place in my tv/media watching brain but they garnered(is that the right word?) more of an appreciation when I learned of the 20 years of history and backstory that came with all of my favorite characters and hated ones. These are pretty much all similar with tortured loved stories and twisted people who do twisted things for no good (or should I say self serving) reasons. They will all keep you hooked and you should check them out. they all come on network tv and now you can find most of these shows on their respective channel's website (since most of these soaps air between the hours of 12:30-4 and we supposedly have lives that we should be leading during that time).
Also if you haven't already jumped on the bandwagon. Watch Glee and Modern Family. Two new shows and the times no longer conflict since Glee will be moving to Tuesdays in April and Modern Family still holds down its slot at 9 on Wednesday. They both provide intrigue, but in different ways. If you don't believe me, believe the Golden Globes. I kinda wish I had been more vigilant so you guys would know that I knew the potential within these shows before the critics had their chance to tell you. lol
One show that is pure garbage and people should steer clear of is The Secret Life of the American Teenager. It is totally mind numbing but people still watch it. whoever writes for this show better start getting some GOOd ideas and stop bringing back (don't wanna say it but must) hasbeens(sp?) of the 80's and 90's. Blossom, Molly Ringwald, no offense. but this show is dumb!!! No wonder John Schnider got himself killed off. lol
Oh one last thing Bad Girls Club and Jersey Shore both trashy reality tv but so awesomely trashy and good that you need to watch. I promise you wont feel ripped off or like you wasted your time. These two shows are good stuff.

I've been watching......
but I guess I've kinda been keeping it all to myself.
Well first order of business is to tell you about the Awesomeness that is how i met your mother. It stars many great people but the best one of them all (or the one currently stuck in my mind) is NPH otherwise known as Neil Harris. I received all 3 seasons of the show (on sale) in the mail and ha d a complete marathon and it was totally awesome. You need to watch this how because it is just extremely funny and it blows your mind. It isn't just a sappy story about finding love but lots of cooky things occur ( as well as crude humor). Most Excellent. When season 5 starts up this fall make sure to check it out at its new time at 8 on Mondays on CBS. Its a 30 min comedy that leaves you wanting more and doesn't make you feel as if you have just wasted time in front of the tv forcing yourself to smile, smirk, or make that nervous laughter sound when you just want people to think you got the joke. Genuinley a good show.
Last on my list (short list I know but I promise I will to try to remember I have a blog) is Big Brother 11. It is into its second week and tomorrow night is the 2nd eviction. Although you would think things aren't too wild, you are wrong. A house full of weak minded mental cases (with he exception of a few), emotional nut jobs, and self absorbed muscle men/rejects; all hell is breaking loose. Everyday a person is growing increasingly paranoid, not taking anytime to rest. Everyday a person is being turned against another with their hatred causing them to taunt and revert back to their childhood way, every week it just gets more insane. There are plenty of people to hate this season and only a few to love. Unfortunately the good side is getting pummeled and this week will be crucial in determining how their luck will run for the rest of the game and if these overconfident pompous jerks will be shut down for a while.
all i can say is that it comes on 3 times a week, its live competition with daily action (which if you are obsessed, you will follow it everyday all day) and it is just a good show to watch. Again this anothe show on CBS and although it sounds like I am making a plug, I'm so not. These just happen to be two great shows that happen to be shown on the CBS network.
Thats that for now.

Summer Drama
Well Summer is officially here or at least here for all of us college students and it is...... interesting. Fall shows have wrapped up and left us waiting on the edge of our seats, or at least that was what they were suppose to do, and now we are humbly looking for something to tide us over until the fall. Perhaps we should look at this like a snack that is holding us until dinner. Well don't stuff yourself because it looks like we have a nice array of snacks laid out for us.
Wipeout is always great to provide a few laugh and anyone that does not have one ounce of spite in their heart will not be on the floor crying (this excludes no one). So yeah if you need something to get you over that hump day due to a long day working retail, an excruciating class or a mind numbingly dull day at an internship, fill free and watch ABC. For a person who is less in the mood for laughs and more for drama, then check out NBC's I'm a Celebrity, Get me outta here. It comes on Mon-Thurs and with all the Janice Dickinson hijinks, its more than enough to get people screaming or at least intrigued. Baldwin brothers and tons of other people are there to give you pleasure from 8 til 10.
If that is not the kind of drama you are looking for you have a few other options. Sit tight and wait for CBS's Big Brother 11 to start up in July or wait about a week for the premiere of MTV's Real World Cancun. They will most definitely be chock full of reality tv drama; dripping with blood, tears, and scorn. * I don't think scorn drips but I like the sound of the word.* Beisdes reality drama there is always the pleasure that is True Blood. If you haven't started watching, please do. You are severly doing an injustice to yourself and will feel oh soo stupid to realize you've been missing out. It is full of drama and you will definitely find yourself hating people.
Perhaps I am using definitely too much but anyways I digress, TNT and USA are also throwing a few shows at you to help you in your efforts to remain cool this summer, although I have not seen evidence of the sun as of yet.
It is time to soak up those air conditioning chills and wrap yourself up in a blanket in the summer. There is no better time to be a couch potato!!

A slight deviation from the normal
I told my friends that I wanted my own website and they replied with "what for? your boring."
Insult.
I can start my own website and make it interesting by doing whatever I must. People will regret the awfulness that they say to me.lol. Excuse me for the bad grammar ahead. Anyways....
I Love Money 2 is the best show on VH1 right now. Becky Buckwild's antics, Saaphyre just being herself, and Frank screaming and going crazy is another highlight. Too bad 2 out of 3 of these people are gone. Even though the first and third people are gone, the show is still as interesting as ever. Generally I recommend that you watch VH1 on monday's night for a good laugh and having a nice yell in disgust about something.
Rachel Getting Married is a really good movie, but at times it seems to try too hard to be inedpendent. Atypical camera work, and shots of certain scenes that seem like they should end sooner than they do, this movie has a pretty indie flow but is overall good. Anne Hathaway is really good but some of the family members just make me want to scream. Her mother is totally crazy and her sister has self worth issues that are probably due to Anne's behavior but she has the chance to get over it by going to theraphy. Well I should just say her sister rubbed me the wrong way but it is up to yu to determine what kind of person you think she is.
In case you didn't know Rescue Me is back and I kind feel the laughter coming on. Another great FX show, it continues into its 5th season(?) after about a year and a half (talk about a hiatus).lol It is totally awesome and is guaranteed to make you laugh and find some reason to love all the male characters and loathe the female ones, this may be somewhat anit-women but this is show is too good not to watch. It is guaranteed to suck you in for life, esp its theme song so come on come on and watch it.lol

Super Late but with entertainment updates
Spring break has arrived for me and now I can sort of catch up on things involving entertainment.
ABDC has winner in case you haven't heard and their name is Quest Crew. With all of the hype surrounding the first ever all female group being on par with the guys and making it to the finals, you would have thought they had the votes before the voting lines were opeen. We were wrong. Quest Crew won. It was the closest call I have ever seen in a reality competition and they won. I don't know how I actually feel about the win because I liked Beat Freaks but I also loved Quest Crew, tough.
On VH's Tool Academy, I was shocked and surprised. I can't wait until the reunion special to see which tools have reformed and which couples stayed together, got back together, or broke it off for good. I just think it is hillarious to see these people act up infront of the camera and pretend they have heart and soul. In reality I would like to believe that most can see through that "i'm totally reformed and no longer a broken man without a soul", at least I did (especially that Matsuflex). I really am excited about that and people should watch it this Sunday. There was also a marriage at the end of the show. WOW, Shocker!! Umm...... Whenever money is involved on a reality show with the main feature of love or bringing a couple together, all of the "changes" and other improvements made on the show are questionnable. We will see , we will see.
Also if you want something light to read and you are in the mood for hating people, then I suggest picking up the memoirs of a certain disney popstar sensation. Miles to Go is an autobiography about Miley Cyrus's life and the challenges she has faced while establishing her career and learning about life in general during her 16 years on the planet. I don't know if you want to take the book seriously but it should be good for a couple laughs. The only downside is you will have to read it and you will be contributing to the empire that is Miley. I rather not, I'll just wait for internet leaks and copies, etc..(basically bootlegged non copyrighted stuff)lol.
Tv has continued to crank out new episodes before the fall/spring tv season is over and it is pretty good. I'll talk about some more episodes and shows in specific in another blog, but overall shows are satisfying enough. And on one last note. I've never really been into the Bachelor but I watched the After the last rose shows and was totally like "WHAT!!??" It was wow, he broke up with Melissa and the girl he rejected, took him back (molly). All of the crying, the hysterics, and the audience reaction was crazy. It is too interesting and if you haven't seen anything on it, where have you been? Here is a funny clip to explain a little: http://video.yahoo.com/watch/4104403/1106950

I Phone apps, celebrity meltdowns, and other things
I was watching tv the other day when a commercial for the iphone came on explaining the new applications. RIDICULOUS!!! At first I phone apps were cool but now these app makers have lost their mind. Let's check out a sonogram while I'm having dinner with my wife, let me track my ex boyfriend while I'm at work in a company meeting, let me level my book shelf since I seem to have forgotten to buy a ruler but managed to buy every other supply at Home Depot. Gosh.. these people need to either come up with necessary realistic apps or just stop. I really don't need to check my eyesight with my ipod. Just plain dumb. If you want to seriously understand how stupid these apps are, pick up ur itouch or iphone and just browse through them (or just go onlne and search).
In case you didn't know or you missed it, Chris brown was charged with beating his girlfriend (Rhianna). Supposedly they had already been having problems with their relationship with control issues (on Rhianna's side) and Chris just got tired of it. She was reported to have bite marks and scratches on her body. this sounds weird for a guy to do. if anyone was gonna bite, I would have guessed it would have been the girl. since when have guys gotten sooo desperate that they start biting at girls or holding them down and taking nibbles from their flesh. Really weird. Also christian Bale has apparently lost his mind because he attempted to attack his sister and mother with a phone. not sure if this is true, but if it is, what is up with these guys and their weak attacks(that might sound wrong, but just wondering). Phones, Biting, what is happening?***EDIT*** It seems Chris Brown's attack was not soo weak judging from the confirmed battered photos of Rhianna. Harsh. **** Also, Bale went on a tiraid yelling at an assitant on set for getting in his eyeline and ruining his concentration for a serious scene. If you want to hear it, just youtube.
Other things: Dynamic Edition is gone and I'm pretty sure fly kicks are out the door next(ABDC).
Freaks and Geeks was and is the most awesome show and I am desperate for someone to make a Freaks and Geeks Movie: The Reunion (my own title)
American Idol is dragging out the picking of the top 12 process
Watch The Soup

SNL, ABDC, Nip/Tuck, Monday Night
On SNL this week, The Lonely Island Boys released another great music video and song. I'm on boat which featured T pain and all of the Lonely Island boys. An awesome beat and ridiculous costumes on a huge boat were hilarious. If you couldn't get enough, their cd Incredibad comes out sometimes this week and features other awesome songs a long with favorites such as D*** in a Box, Ji** in my pants, and others. They are totally awesome. Sorry for the use of awesome so much, but that is the word I feel encompases these guys.
Good Bye, ADios, Sianara(probably spelled wrong). On ABDC the Ring Masters have finally left the building. No more pity and no more sympathy for the guys from Brooklyn not being crack dealers. I am from NY and there are plenty of people that do other things with their life instead of selling crack. Come one, I know it is an accomplishment but if that's the only reason you are keeping them on the show, then axe them. You can find pity in another area. This is not America's Best CHarity case. However, they were not too bad last week but it was there time to go. Like I said, don't let the door hit you on the way out.lol. I might be harsh but I hate when people think that since you are from a certain area you are almost destined to turn out that way. Maybe I'm an optimist and think people control their own lives, whatever.
Monday Night tv at 8 was interrupted by President Obama's first official press conference. Iwas looking forward to a night of House and Chuck and all the other shows that I juggle, but then it was rudely interrupted before it even got started. I guess our nation and the state of the economy is important.lol. It was a very informative address though and it did talk about the new stimulus package and his hopes to fill up this hole we seem to have dug for ourselves. As of now, I do not know what happened to the new shows that were suppose to air but maybe they will be aired later on in the week, maybe they came on at like 3 or 4 in the morning, or maybe they plan on showing it next week. I'll find it online eventually. BUt yeah, watch Obama's speech if u haven't yet.
Last but certainly not least is Nip/Tuck. It appears Sean is being his normal horny easily seduced and controlled/confused by twisted wild women. Also it seems Christian may have a return of the cancer he just removed. Very Sad, but we will find out more next week. This episode was sort of light, but more comical than anything. There was a man who needed a penis reduction and then there were a few memorable lines, one of which was " I just want to give it baby kisses". This show is good, if you don't watch it, do. It's on FX at 10 on Tuesday.
