Chuck ep 12&13

Current Mood:Indifferent emoticon Indifferent

Yesterday, not only did we get 1 new episode of Chuck, but we got 2! Decent stuff, though if Adam Baldwin wasn’t on the show I don’t think it’d be even 1/10th as good. He makes the show. And of course Yvonne Strahovski is all kinds of hotness. Evidence…

Chicks and guns…mmmmm.Princess Leia?…yes please!

Episode 12 was kinda slow. Not too interesting…matter of fact, I don’t remember what happened other than “Captain Awesome” and Ellie’s issues. I enjoyed episode 13 much more, though again, Baldwin steals the show. A fun, turn your mind off type of show.

Random TV for the week

Current Mood:Confused emoticon Confused

Dexter is getting better and better. I originally disliked the love triangle but it’s getting pretty damn good. I hope Doakes isn’t going anywhere anytime soon. Love the dynamic between him and Dexter and it got ramped up Sunday to the nth degree. Good stuff.

Weeds is pretty much a parody of it’s self at this point. Do like the story of the youngest now “seeing” and “talking” to his dead dad. Poor little bastard.

I finally saw the “Booze Cruise” episode of The Office, and didn’t realize how big that episode was. I LOVED it when Jim broke it off with his lady friend. It was so cringe-worthy.

House was awesome as per usual. I knew that Michael Michelle was gonna get fired but didn’t expect it so quickly. Finally get some insight into “number 13″ next week. I totally dig her by the way. Surprised Kumar’s lasted as long as he has as well as the “bitch”.

Chuck gets an automatic win once again this week as he had an Oldboy poster in his room. He may have had it in there in past episodes but I never noticed it. Decent episode as well.

No fricken’ dentist again. It’s really getting tiring. Now it’s been re-scheduled for November 29th. If my dentist wasn’t so awesome, I’d go somewhere closer. At least the Chiefs won’t reschedule me…though they might not show up…ooooh slam!

Halloween tomorrow and i don’t care. Tre’ doesn’t even seem that interested. Should have some pictures of him as avatar Aang tomorrow. Taytay’s gonna be a witch…it fits.

No movie today, but did watch Weeds and Chuck…both were…uninteresting. There’s alot of sex this year in Weeds. 1st season you could sympathize with the mom, but not so much this year. She’s basically just a drug dealing whore. Gonna watch Bottle Rocket tomorrow. It looks average at best. That is all.

Heroes Episode 5 and Chuck

Current Mood:Bored emoticon Bored

Another slow episode after the greatness of the last ep. Only part I really liked…and I really, really liked it. Was Parkman’s confrontation with his dad. I was convinced he wasn’t the “Nightmare Man”. Then BAM! “Fuck you Matt Parkman! Sonny boy! I am the Nightmare Man!” I figure Parkman will be able to use his soon to be gotten, new found power to help Molly. Peter’s story is kinda getting interesting…his “acting” still bothers me. Very Keanu Reeves-esque.

Chuck had it’s slowest, most boring, uneventful, episode yet. Nothing happened…at all.

Random TV side note…
I was watching Justice League with Tre last night, and heard quite possibly one of the funniest, completely unintentional lines ever…

The setup. A General and one of the former head guys at Cadmus(secret organization setup to defend against the perceived threat of the Justice League) was talking to another former member and he says…”Superman walked right into Cadmus and tossed our men like a salad”. At first my mouth was agape. Like, how could he say some shit like that? Then reality set in and knew it was an innocent comment and didn’t really imply any “salad tossing” lol. I got a giggle out of it either way.

Chuck Episode 3

Motherfuckin’ Bob Ross!

Watched the 3rd ep. of ‘Chuck’ and it gets an automatic A for mentioning the man, the legend, my after school buddy for like 3 years, Bob Motherfuckin’ Ross. I loved watching this guy as a kid, and get a kick whenever he gets mentioned on some show. Everyday after school, I’d come home and watch this guy. He was quite the man. Such a calm soothing voice. My favorite Bob Ross mention was in an episode of Boondocks and they had a character VERY similar to Bob, only he was a gun toting art teacher. Was a great episode. Also, he has the greatest white man ‘fro in history.

Oh, and Chuck wasn’t bad either.

New TV Season 1st week grades…

Current Mood:Bored emoticon Bored

…of the shows I actually watched. First up…

House - My favorite show on TV. And even without the 3 co-stars who are no longer under the employ of one Dr. House, the show was still really good. As detailed below in an earlier post, House is awesome! (B+)

Heroes - My second favorite show didn’t fare as well in it’s premiere. No real direction yet, so the show just kinda meandered along. Nothing great about this first episode, but I expect it to get better as the season goes on. (C)

Bionic Woman - Has potential, and may just make it a full season, but some of the dialogue was just bad. Story is pretty good thus far, and like that the main character isn’t the only “Bionic Woman”. Special effects were ok, and fight scenes leave a little to be desired. Alot of that horrible camera moving and shaking crap like is so prevalent in the Bourne movies. (C-)

Chuck - The biggest surprise thus far. I really enjoyed this. Very likable character’s, decent fun story, and believable acting. Not sure how long they can stretch this show out with the plot device they’re using. Really hope this show continues on for awhile. (B)

The Office - The best comedy on TV in years, and easily the best comedy on TV now…easily. Nothing is even remotely close. The premiere didn’t disappoint. Creed was funny as always with his 10-15 seconds of airtime he tends to get. Line of the night…”You don’t know me, you just saw my penis.” Then Jim’s reaction. Also loved it when Kevin dubbed Pam & Jim “PB&J”. Good episode. (B+)

My Name is Earl - The second best comedy on TV, but just doesn’t have the same “zing” as the Office. I could miss an episode and not be upset at all. With that said it was still pretty good. Randy is usually the best part of the shows and was again here. The end was great. “Hey, I’m stealing this car!” “Bwoop, bwoop…that’s the car alarm, don’t you hear it, cuz I’m stealing this car…” LoL, good stuff. (B-)

Poor little nephew…and stuff

Current Mood:Bad emoticon Bad

My poor little nephew puked last night for the first time in his young life(he’s 4) and it scared the shit out of him. He asked his mommy, “am I going to die?” Was so sad. Poor little bastard. What’s worse was I got onto him for not eating. He said his stomach hurt, but I thought he was just not wanting to eat. So I had to apologize to him. He woke up this morning feeling better though so that’s good.

In non sad little man news, I watched “Chuck” and was pleasantly surprised. It was a really good first show and I look forward to next weeks show. Hopefully Bionic Woman is at least as good. I think I may have missed the boat on Journeyman though. I hadn’t seen many previews, but it looked really good as well. Time travel has always piqued my interest. Looks like a good season for TV…much better than last year anyway.
