Day 237 - Warehouse 13

As I had said in a previous post, I was wary of Warehouse 13. But, I am a believer now. Even more so since they added Claudia. And in this episode it combines a couple of my favorite things: Las Vegas, Alice in Wonderland stuff, disco and actors from Eureka. Lupo and Zane, as a couple of thieves that seem to have great luck. Also, it has Myka in a great little dress. Anyway, love what the SCI FI channel (can stand they changed their name to SYFY) did with having them do this. Love it when crossovers, even if its not a true crossover. Yeah I know, it takes so little to amuse me.

Day 236 - You Women Suck

I knew this would happen. I get hooked on a reality TV show and the outcome is never what I think. All these women are looking for the one. They have a connection in the dark room and then when the lights come up... and these aren't bad looking guys. I know I couldn't stand the light, as I hope my personality would carry in the dark. And I feel really bad for these guys. I would say 2/3 of the women leave because of the looks. I think if the reverse was done. Looks first, these guys would probably be better. Who knows. I always said that the battle of the sexes never ended it just went to guerrilla warfare. I want to re-watch the 6 episodes and see how many women left the guys at the balcony.

It just pisses me off. Me, I can understand them walking through the door. But these guys..... argh.

Ok, enough of that rant. I got sucked into another TV show: Greek. OMG. I love it! I think it was because Cappie reminds me so much of my co-worker Bryan. And then as the episodes went on, the characters grew. Also, I can relate to Rusty. Felt that way growing up; hell I still feel that way. Love this show and glad it got picked up for a third season. I was surprised at the amount of adult content that it showed on ABC Family. Way to go! Hope they can go to at least the 4th or 5th season. Maybe end it when Rusty graduates. And yes! I do hope Cappie and Casey end up together. That's a true Romeo and Juliet. I am glad she broke up with Max. I mean, I maybe a geek at times, but he was just flat out boring. Although the engineer party was fairly accurate. Can't believe, well actually I guess I can, that Spencer Grammer is Kelsey Grammer's daughter. That's so cool also.

Day 229 - Dating In The Dark

Ok, I for one do not reality TV shows. I can count on one hand the ones that I like. And of course, the ones I like never seem to make it. Anyway, I happened upon this one on Hulu. The reason I checked it out was because they had the 1st episode and when they explained that there were no cash prizes and no one was voted off I thought ok. And then the premise. Great. You meet in total darkness. You get clues of what a person is about,and then decide if you want to "meet" them in the light.

And I must say, that it seems the women are more judgmental on how a person looks than the men are. At least the ones I have seen. So far I have watched five of them. And in one of them all the women wanted one guy and the two other guys were cool about it as they knew they didn't have a spark with any of the women. But, when they saw him, they all changed their tune. It wasn't like he was ugly or anything. Good looking guy; but to one he was too young. Another, he wouldn't fit with her lifestyle and friends....amazing. I have seen guys check themselves. They said that it was about the person on the inside, if they choose not to meet. Of course they could be lying for the camera. But the premise, I like. we'll see how long it lasts. Since its a good show, and is trying to bring people together with no cash prizes, no voting off or anything like that. And looking like everyone actually getting along on the men and women sides, it probably won't last.

So I will say that this is #2 on my reality show check list. the first was called "boot Camp." and yeah it was military orientated. Aw well. Guess that's why the majority of network TV sucks. They never leave the good shows alone. They want that "microwave" NOW. Not use a stove and let things cook.

Day 218 - X-Files 2

I never saw this movie when it was in the theaters and all I can say is: THANK THE LORD for that. I would have been pissed off by spending that amount of money on this movie.

Let me say, that I am a fan of the original X-Files. And I have been hunting the paranormal longer that Chris Carter can spell "X-Files." So I wanted to see what they did to finish up the franchise. All I can say is; WTF? This was like a CSI or Law and Order or something else. And it is really 'somethimng else.'

Ugh ugh ugh!

I think Californication got to the series. Not really Duchovny's best work. The story was weak, weak weak weak....

And Anderson's role... also, just..ugh............

Sorry guys. I was hoping you would have let the series leave on a high note like the first movie. But NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. You had to produce this trite.
