TV
I’m not a big TV watching kinda’ guy. Oh yes I do have some shows I like to watch though. I like the local 6 O’clock news. I like The Simpsons. I like Criag Fergusons late night talk show. Now I don’t have cable, satellite, HDTV or anything all high tech like that. Nope, I just have 6 channels to choose from. NBCCWCBSABCPBSFOX is the network I get here at, “The Thistle and Shamrock Suburban Resort, hunting preserve, golf course, baseball field, basketball court, gun range, dance club, unrepentant fenian bastard hideout, beer hall, deer and elk butchering parlor, motorcycle repair shop, football pitch..not completely unlike Old Trafford except it’s much smaller and people don’t really play soccer here, spa, bodega and overall cocooning plaza for yours truly”.
For the past three weeks I’ve been watching this TV show called 24. So I came to this show about 5 years late. Now that’s what I call fashionably late! The first two shows were pretty cool. They were two hours long and despite the lefty diversity crap they were alright. Now I’ve watched the regular show for the past two weeks. It is, in my opinion, just another network TV show. Oh yea, the character, Jack Bauer, kicks some ass and I do like when the normal patriot who happens to be a muslim guy yells at the lefty anti-American lawyer girl. You can check my post entitled 24 for my review of the season opener. I prefer to watch a movie when I turn my TV on. Oh hell, the local used CD and DVD store know me by name. Now I have to admit that a couple of years ago I watched the first version of survivor religiously from beginning to end. Yea, the one that the fat gay guy won. Then the next year I sat down to watch it and I barely made it through 10 minutes. I think the last sitcom show I watched on a regular basis was either Hogans Heros, Get Smart or maybe All in the Family. Now that was good TV.
Well next Sunday I shall turn my TV on and watch the Super Bowl. See, there are a few things good on TV like Football, Baseball and Hockey or as I like to put it, Eagles, Phillies and Flyers.
God, man! Where have you been? 24 is so class! Jack Bauer beats the faces of Muslims, Chinese, and practically every other ethnic minority that hates America and I love it! Welcome to the brotherhood of 24.
If I were you I’d buy the boxsets of the other series. They should only be about $30.
Mira Dario,
!Ya no quiero TV mucho!
Ha….!permisomigo!
I really don’t think much of the show with the execption that it could be alot better.
With that said, I will try and watch it when i remember when it’s on.
I don’t like the politicalization(sp?) of TV shows. If Jack Bauer is gonna’ kick ass then let him do it!!!
TV sucks the sweat off dead man’s balls… (guess where that quote comes from?:)
Its the ads – ads, ads ads. They destroy any disire I have to watch the telly. Cable or paid for tv sucks here as well – and its pricey – unless you’re a sports nut – which I’m not.
So I watch dvds – sometimes 2 a night. I get to choose what I watch, when I watch with no-one tries to sell me anything… I love it.
I do watch the news – and the odd simpsons / family guy episode – but usually not past the first ad break… Having tv shows on dvd is a god send – I could never watch these things on tv but on they make perfect time wasters on dvd…
