The Biggest Loser UPDATE

I must say that I have a huge obsession with the show and I always loved watching Jillian going all crazy on the contestants and standing on them. Fine that's one style of training.

But what happened to Bob today. Joelle. He lost his shit. You know I am not at the ranch trying to lose a bunch of weight but running and keeping pace for 30 seconds can't be that rough. Both trainers throw out the occasion "fuck" but my oh my Bob entertained tonight. Still if I ever had the chance to train with one of them I would train with Bob. I have the tendency to yell and swear back. Does Bob have a fan club?? I seriously watched that clip 4 or 5 times and have it queued up to that spot in case I need to watch it again.

Jillian was so giddy watching that. Go Bob! Tomorrow I will look for a clip to add to the post.

Update: NBC finally put up the full clip of Bob's Meltdown and I have to share i.

One Laptop Per Child

So a digital John Lennon appears in an ad for One Laptop per Child. I don't know I think it is always a little weird(maybe even creepy) when dead people are undeaded (I know its not a word) for tv/movies and such.

What do you think??

I will post more if you read more

Ok that may be a lie (or a mistruth) as I won't stop posting entirely because you (whoever you are) stop reading but I...

There is no but I.

Anyway breathing hurts today. Asthma. I guess. I live alone and while watching tv or sitting on my couch have a lot of time on my hands to think or talk to myself. Yesterday witht he breathing pain I thought of those sucking chest wounds that I see on medical tv dramas. Then decide that maybe my chest pain felt like that but as a bad. I don't know.

Oh I have good news. So last week it was rumored that Lipstick Jungle was being canceled but its not. I started to feel bad for my Tivo.

That's all I got for now.

SNL

So I can't tell you the last time I sat down to watch Saturday Night Live. Like many others who have stopped watching have said "I think it lost it funny". Although I must say that Tina Fey as Sarah Palin is pretty funny. Anyway I have been reading lately that Mark Wahlberg (one of my favorites - give me a moment while I close my eyes and think of him in his Calvin Klein undies) did not find the Mark Wahlberg talks to Animals sketch not funny. I must admit if I would have watched it live I wouldn't have found it funny either but the fact that Mr. Marky Mark is all over the gossip pages about such a sketch is kind of humorous.

Here's the video:


What do you all think?

One Tree HIll

As I start watching this week's episode I find out someone dies. Then think I must of missed something did I watch last week's episode. I though I did, well I go back and notice that by some late night genius moment I have. I didn't watch the last ten minutes. It is a hazard of starting to watch a show at 10pm or 10:15pm. Well I go back and I already know someone will die then watch. I am thinking what the hell. So I start watching this week's episode again. It is extremely sad.

I don't understand why they killed off Q (Quentin) but we are only 3 shows into the season. I hope something clarifies it soon. What's the big setup.

Well Brooke is continuing to lie about how she got so beat up. She has been telling everyone she fell down the stairs (well tumbled) at this point I don't think anyone believes her. She has been going to the shoot ranges to learn how to use a gun. I have a feeling that if push comes to shove she will shoot her mother.

The crazy nanny still has Dan locked away in her house. Dan tried to escape again this time out the back way collapsing onto the son grave. Which I thought was really weird. Who buries their kid in the backyard. There is more story behind this I am sure. Dan sympathizes with her but she's batshit so who knows how she will spin it.

Like I said this episode comes right after everyone learns that Q has been shot (at a gas station on his way home from basketball practice). It comes out at his funeral that Deb (Nathan's mom) is sleeping with one of the coaches and Nathan's good friend Skills (Antwon). She goes to console him at the funeral. I thought that was a touching moment (there will be fallout from that also).

Gish there was so much more I wish I knew someone who watched so I have someone to discuss with. Until then I will tell Michael everything there is to know about the show.

My tivo and me

Since I got the tivo in March of this year I have put a lot of faith in this electronic piece of equipment. I have gotten so used to not having to be at home to watch my beloved tv that the Tivo is highly depended on. ABC's stay at home week is about to start and boy I have a lot of tv watching to do. I am already a week behind on All my Children and General Hospital (dailies) and I have 4 Burn Notice's to watch. I have to finish the 4th season of The Office so that when that starts to tivo I won't be two behind.

What to do

I am going to keep telling myself that i ma going to blog more until it actually happen.

So I got my remaining (2) wisdom teeth pulled Friday. I don't remembered what happened the last time I had an impacted wisdom tooth pulled because I slept through it. Yes with only local anesthesia. The weekend was something, I was in pain for most of it. I think the dentist tried to break my jaw. I still can't open my mouth fully. Which makes eating hard.

So I went out and bought SingStar 90s this weekend and sang a couple of songs. I know people are a fan of the 80s edition but I know this one is fun and I know a lot of the songs.

I think it is time for me to do a music moment once again on my blog. So that's what the next post will be about. Watch for it.

Oh Diddy (or whatever he is calling himself these days) has a new reality show starting today. Where people compete to be his assistant. I think I will watch just to see what his old assistants have to say.

Troubled

I was troubled to read today on cnn.com somewhere that General Hospital has had a decline in ratings.

Well as a person that would watch (at least)ABC's soap if I could.

Here are my major problems:

General Hospital is on at 2pm. Well at 2pm I am at work. Unfortunately I must continue to work because I haven't won the lottery yet.

It's not streamed online. I know an hour every day (less than 40 without commercials) would be a hard job. I am just saying that other networks have toyed with the idea and have up two-weeks worth of episodes at a time would do it for me.

It's a digital age people get with the program.

Soap Opera news

I am very happy to hear that Sarah Brown (form Carly) is returning to General Hospital. What I am sad about is that she is not returning as Carly. She made the character what it is today. Anyway I can't wait to see who she will play.

This has to stop but it is funny. Watch the Hills

You should stop me seriously.

Ok I watch two of televisions most awful reality shows. Why, would I watch something that I find awful? Well. Entertainment. Now some of you like to look down your nose at my tv picks but they are probably why I am cooler than you.

Brace yourself.

The Real Housewives of Orange County and the Hills are two shows that are must sees for me.

I am now going to link to a few blogs that make fun of these shows and their characters (I mean human being people). I must say that I haven't tried The Real Housewives while drinking lots of red wine. I am about to start though.

The Housewives

That's it for now.

There's Hope

Project Runway starts today.  Fun, fun.

How many shows are left??

Talk about sad times.  This list tells you how many shows are going to be aired.  For a good number of shows.

I guess its time to finish Deadwood, watch all of Arrested Development, be bored, and who knows what else.

Strike Links

I thought you all deserved some links about the strike.

Writer's On Strike

So I am sure most of you know that writers for tv and film are on strike.

Well if you have this could be a very big deal for those of you who avid tv watchers. Myself included. I am not in the movie or tv business but I think that my insane ability to read a lot of internet in a day gives me a little insight. The shows that are on now depending on how long their season is probably have most but not all of their shows written. Shows starting in January are pretty much in the shitter because they have started writing but probably not enough to get through half the season. Late night shows that are all about what is happening now (you know current news) are definitely screwed.

As for movies depending on how long this strike goes are in much better shape. It takes months to shoot a movie and hopefully it is all written because they start shooting. I bet that there are a a lot of shelved movies and scripts that B, C, or D actors would mind being in. Well we'll see how far the effects go.

I just hope that they (by they I mean Writers Guild of America and Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers) come to an agreement soon so I am not stuck watching split seasons filled with reality shows about making babies or robots or the other reality I don't like. I guess if they added enough drama I'd watch it.

Anyone watch the 4400??

I am absolutely loving it right now. Yay, Isabelle Tyler has her powers back.

If you know me, you know I am excited about this...

American Gladiator is back. I don't know if you have been to Rascal's lately with me and I have been obsessively staring at the tv. I can't wait.
