"I'm here, she's here, we made it."
Indeed, we have made it. It's really happening. In 4 short weeks I am headed to Chicago to meet up with loyal blog-followers Fu, Des and Jenni. I am so very excited to spend a weekend watching our favorite episodes, reminiscing about the good old days of Alias (or TV in general) and actually SEEING each other in real life.
And again, another thank you to all who made and still make this blog what it was and still is- a place for smart people, who enjoy smart TV to talk. I have a feeling that there will be a lot of that happening once I arrive in Illinois. Stay tuned!!

«Oldest ‹Older 1601 – 1800 of 1810 Newer› Newest»Please God, let 2023 be the year that Harry and Meghan STFU!
Preferably EARLY 2023.
Just polished off S3 of "Jack Ryan" and recently knocked off "A Spy Among Friends". Thinking about wading into "Slow Horses".
So, I was all jacked up for "The Last of Us" because Anna Torv. Then somebody tells me her character dies early on. C'mon Man!
"Alert: Missing Persons Unit".
Run-of-the-mill procedural with a couple of the "Alias" behind-the-scenes bros on the payroll (Eisendrath and JR Orci). Stars one of the H50 guys.
Glory days are over for Bad Robot and associates.
If this was my class, these idiots would all be standing in the hall....forever. And, as an added bonus, they'd all get failing grades for being losers.
But that's just me.
We might have known that rainbow Pride hockey tape was a thing.
Ten years ago tonight, Walter Bishop travelled into the future and saved the world.
Mask up or we'll kill you and get away with it.
M&M's self-identifies as mentally retarded.
They'll get no argument from me.
Current Status: organizing the classified documents in my underwear drawer. Just a few leftovers from my days in the White House. They're perfectly safe there, unless my tighty-whiteys have eyes. Even the FBI wouldn't wade into my undie drawer.
Sooooooo, "Night Court" is back. 33 years between episodes. If "Alias" follows that trajectory, look for new eppies to show up in 2039. Let us synchronize our watches.
Re: Tyre Nichols (and others like him), would it not be a better use of taxpayers' dollars to teach young people how to handle police encounters without inviting their almost instant death, rather than wasting the same dollars teaching them that their own gender is negotiable? I only ask because, time after time, people (most often black) seem to think the best course of action when encountering police is to do everything possible to guarantee that they get themselves dead.
The flip side of these stories is, do these Keystone cops not realize that they're wearing body cams that can and will be used against them in a court of law when they slaughter people needlessly?
Just a couple of questions on my mind tonight. Hey, I have an inquiring mind, sue me.
Until I watched this delusional nutter I didn't realize that black-on-black crime was a myth.
Try spinning that BS to Officer Dorn's family. I'm sure it was white supremacy that caused that punk's gun to go off.
That's the kind of nonsense I'd expect from Reverend Al.
The internet trying to cancel Zachary Levy.
Until recently, Cate Blanchett was apparently unaware that Hollyweird was a woke cesspool.
So now she knows.
Banning "latinx" is a good start. Can we do "cis-gender" next?
February 26 kicks off the final season of "The Blacklist"
I'm still not entirely sure what this show is about, but it's going to double (or more) the number of episodes "Alias" put out.
New York Rangers leave their Pride jerseys "in the closet".
See what I did there?
Canada never had a "dream" of national bilingualism. It is and was always the fantasy of French speaking politicians trying to force the overwhelming majority of non-french speaking Canadians to bend-the-knee, to which the appropriate response is "Buzz Off".
Does he stop to consider that maybe it's Pride Jersey night that's "not for everyone".?
Would you rather sit thru the Grammys or die horribly in a vat of acid?
Truer words never spoken. This would be me in the same situation. I'd be thinking "deliver me from this freak show". I'd probably also be thinking "I should have stuck with the other Jen", but that's just me.
What will it take to get Madonna to BUZZ OFF and leave us the hell alone? What did we ever do to deserve her?
Here's a deep thought from a shallow man. Avoid the anguish of de-transitioning by not transitioning in the first place.
Some helpful tips:
1) When the nice doctor comes to hack your boobies off, kick him in the face (Sydney Bristow style) and while he's collecting himself, shove the scalpel deep into his squiggly lizard brain ("Walking Dead"-style).
2) Having completed step one, get on with your life.
3) Having completed steps one and two, don't forget to plead "not guilty" to the stabby doctor thingy. He wasn't a real healthcare worker anyway, just some guy with an expensive wife and shady values
4) Never talk to your stupid parents again because they allowed things to get this far, which means they're unqualified to be parents.
5) Get on the Twitter machine and change your freaking pronouns back to she/her.
Might be time to start charging woke judges.
20 years ago was the only Super Bore that ever mattered, and even then, it was what came AFTER the "big game" that made it memorable. Namely "Alias" S02E13, "Phase One".
Here, Vartan and Lumbly reminisce.
Tell me this scene doesn't seem like you watched it for the first time YESTERDAY. I'll know if you're lying.
Now, if you choose to watch tonight's Super Bore, just remember, it's completely irrelevant. Not only that, but after you've wasted 5 hours watching it, "Alias" doesn't come on when it's over.
Quick, name a song (any song) by Super Bore Halftime legend, Rihanna. I'll give you a minute.................Yeah, me neither.
I only ask because I saw something online saying that she replayed all the "hits" during yesterday's halftime performance and I just thought to myself, all I know about Rihanna is that she was in that movie "Battleship".
Abrams, Grunberg and Holloway reunited and it feels so good. Or does it? No one knows yet cuz no one has seen it yet.
"Duster" has 3 things going against it from my POV:
1) it's on HBO Max, to which I don't subscribe
2) it's set in 1972
3) no sci-fi
About to embark on one final mission with the crew of "Star Trek: The Next Generation" on the final season of "Star Trek: Picard".
I'd rather drop my kids off at Michael Jackson's house.
Word to the ladies. When you let the "doctors" come for your boobies, just remember, they don't grow back. It's not like when you get a bad haircut and you just have to wait for a few weeks before no one can tell the difference.
And, while I've got you here, what makes you think being a make-believe man is the answer to your problems?
If a black person moves in next door to me, do I have to send them reparations? Is an e-transfer okay or do descendants of slaves prefer post-dated cheques? I just want to do the right thing.
I'm getting a definite Rachel Levine vibe here.
Kiefer Sutherland is back, this time in "Rabbit Hole". Not entirely sure what this one's about, but it has a decent cast, including the bad boy from the pilot episode of "Fringe", and of course, the patriarch of the Lannister family, Charles Dance.
I'll be checking this one out.
My guess is that Greta Thunberg has a crush on an Indigenous Sami Reindeer Herder. What else would this be about?
"True Lies" (the series) kicks off in 15 minutes. It stars nobody I've ever heard of. Will it be good? Probably not. Will it last? Not likely. Why not? Because there isn't much effort or talent put into making network TV great again.
So Enjoy.
Looks like a rising star in the Biden admin.
Finally, a trailer for "Citadel".
A number of "Alias" and "Fringe" writers and other assorted Bad Robot behind-the-scenes types involved. Looks like they're actually trying. And, of course, this is not on network TV because network TV is reserved for drivel.
Who thought a "gender identity clinic" was necessary anyway?
Gender identity requires nothing more than a privacy curtain where a confused teen can drop their pants in front of an "expert" (maybe their kid brother).
I shun all art critics by default. And I don't bother to tell them why.
After the premier of "True Lies", I read a comment that likened it to "Alias" on helium. That person needs to go back and watch "Alias" again. This thing is much more reminiscent of that husband-and-wife abomination, "Undercovers".
The pilot was so uninspiring to watch that I completely forgot to tune in for the 2nd episode.
It's worth noting (as mentioned in the linked article) that Matt Nix is the showrunner. Where the writer gets it wrong is that TL does absolutely nothing to remind a viewer of Nix's "Burn Notice". If only it did.
I boldly predict there will be no S2 of "True Lies". If there is, I don't know who will be watching.
Here's what we DON'T need. A gender-swapped reboot of "Matlock"
Regulators should have waited until "Lesbian Visibility Day" was over before shutting Silicon Valley Bank down. Priorities please!
In a perfect world, someone sneaks Will Smith into tonight's Oscars and, after hurling a few obscenities on live TV, he beats the snot out of Jimmy Kimmel. That would be a great way to rehab his image and then we could all go back to liking Will Smith.
That's some serious Mansplaining goin' on.
Can we go ahead and admit that Tiger Woods is just the "bar car" for a long list of white girls itching to ride the rails for awhile?
Smart girls know that Tiger isn't gonna be there for them when they're old and grey, but if they're lucky, some of his money might be. Isn't that what these ladies are all about anyway?
I love the scorching that Drew Barrymore is getting on Twitter for the embarrassing display of pro-tranny pandering on her TV show (which, apparently, Twitter watches so we don't have to).
What happened to that sweet little girl who flashed her boobies at David Letterman? I want her back.
Grown men need to learn how to celebrate victory without causing season-ending injuries to each other. Shouldn't be that difficult.
Just keep saying to yourself "I'm not a 10 year old girl, I don't need to jump up and down when I win a ballgame". There, glad I could help.
Ha! "Diversity Training". My last day at the office would be the day before Diversity Training began. One of the benefits of getting long in the tooth is that you can just opt out of snowflake culture.
"Fringe"
First we lost the head Observer, Windmark, and now Phillip Broyles. A shocker for sure.
Time to revisit this great scene from the pilot, nearly 15 years ago. Hard to believe, impossible to forget.
I just want to go back to before.
Check out the hidden gem in this video. I would absolutely go to the prom with her. Of course I'd have to drug her and throw her in the back seat of my car to get her there, but still.
What was this guy thinking? More importantly, WTF was Hershey thinking?
I love when we have to explain what's offensive about the "extremely offensive" remark, otherwise no one would know to be "extremely offended".
I hope no one finds this offensive.
Nobody in that room wants to listen to Kamala's infantile blabbering.
She's just a Sleepy Joe slip-and-fall away from being President of the You Knighted States. You voted well, America.
What she said!!
Chicks with D*cks don't have any place in women's sports.
The second I hear a "land acknowledgement", I immediately change channels until I suspect it's safe to come back. I'm not here for the virtue-signalling nonsense.
That said, I should note that I'm writing this from the unceded, unsurrendered Territory of the Anishinaabe Algonquin Nation whose presence here reaches back to time immemorial. Please forgive me.
If you're a woman (you know, like Lia Thomas) , how much would ESPN have to pay you to voice this clip?. Would you break all the mirrors in your house so you never have to look at yourself again? How would you explain your betrayal to your daughters, especially the ones that still identify as female?
Where's Kyle Rittenhouse when you need him? He would have blown Oddrey's head off before she stepped over the broken glass.
She had 28 years to get her sh!t together and this is the best life plan she could come up with: "Not happy as a girl, not happy pretending to be a boy, let's go kill some folks" Absolute sh!t for brains.
What happened?
That doesn't require much investigation. 99% of what happened is social media and cable "news". I blame the other 1% on AOC.
We're ALL black Californians today!
My bank misgendered me in an email today. I'm thinking of having them publicly shamed and then cancelled. Who's with me?
I'm with Kid Rock on this one.
If Mulvaney wants to wear a dress in his spare time (preferably in the privacy of his own home), then whatever. If Bud Light feels the need to promote mental illness, then KR is well onside to blast those beer cans into oblivion and flip the bird to Anheuser-Busch. They're old enough to know better.
#budlightisswill
Yes Sir, yes Sir, 3 bags full......of drugs. Clown show.
This summer's blockbuster hit: "Riley Gaines vs. The Transgender Apocalypse". You won't want to miss it.
If a Youtube prankster gets shot by the prankee who doesn't see the humour in "pranks", I think we can just go ahead and call that a self-inflicted gunshot wound.
Don't be an idiot. Don't be a Youtube prankster. Get a real job like your single mom.
What is a woman?
It's really NOT a trick question, although this clown makes it sound like one. Imagine the steely determination on the part of the sign language chick to not burst out laughing at this moron.
BTW, apparently this clown holds the highest office in the land in New Zealand. If I identified as the Prime Minister of New Zealand, would I indeed BE the Prime Minister of New Zealand?
How's it going with that Tik-Tok ban? Are we making any headway yet? Just asking on behalf of the future of all mankind.
I have no plans to suck the Dalai Lama's tongue until I get to know him a little better. Then we'll see.
Ick! Toxic masculinity. You can unsee it.
"How to Be Alone" has 9.7 millions views. I probably account for the .7
"If your heart is bleeding, make the best of it, there is heat in freezing, be a testament"
Imagine a world where you work like a slave all week to earn a few pesos and then you hand it over to this Pillsbury Doughboy so he can "entertain" you.
We can call that world NEVVA (as in NEVVA gonna happen)
#saveyourmoney
I always say "it's not a Sweet Sixteen party until the 4th murder victim flatlines". Been saying it for years.
Back in my day, we just blew out candles, presumably because we didn't have gangsta rap as the soundtrack to our lives.
A sampling of the 2023 Canadian Screen Awards (presumably watched by 9 or 10 people). An endless parade of the most embarrassing people living north of the border. Watch at your peril. And then go take a shower.
This might be a good time for Sidney to release that Kraken. We know she's just waiting for the right moment.
I can always tell when it's going to rain because my gender dysphoria starts to act up.
Joe Biden's next Press Secretary?. All he has to do is identify as black and he ticks all of Joe's boxes.
Just 2 normal bros having a normal conversation. Gramps probably should have shot his genius grandson instead.
Although Gramps is probably a real piece of work himself.
If I'm this clown (not saying I am), I'm donning a dress and choosing to do my time at the girlie prison.
Of course nowadays the girlie prison is apt to be full of dudes, so a bro can't win.
Dylan Mulvaney is an attention-seeking freak show and the fact that not all the attention is "gender-affirming" is something he needs to take into consideration when conducting his completely voluntary social media activities.
Long story short, he could just disappear into society (lucky society) and live quietly among the masses if he doesn't like the blowback.
OMG, remember when U2 was awesome?
"Yeah I'm here without a name, in the palace of my shame, I said Love Rescue Me".
Honourable mention to some pre-Wilburys Bob Dylan.
Just finished the season (series?) finale of "Star Trek: Picard". Nice season featuring TNG crew. A few ridiculous F-bombs because that are so clearly out of place in any "Star Trek", but when you give the kids the car keys you have to expect a few dents in the SUV.
I read an online rumour of a potential next season, but it seems unlikely.
Can we just skip straight to lethal injection for fools like this "Just Stop Oil" clown?
Administered right on sight, of course, since we already know he's guilty of being truly obnoxious and unlikely to improve over time.
I'm guessing Don Lemon was fired for saying that Michelle Obama was a better looking woman than Melania Trump. One lie too many for the management at CNN.
Nikki Haley is not wrong.
I mean, Joe's brain has already left the building (and he does ride around in an armoured hearse).
Welcome to Canada. You're in clown country now, so govern yourself accordingly!
Is it any wonder that Griner feels that it's a crime to keep men out of women's sports?
Enjoy this recent puff piece celebrating my 365th day as a Labradoodle. Nothing from Bud Light yet, which is kind of disappointing.
If you're in Canada, this is your tax dollars at work. This is why no one listens to CBC Radio and wby many people think this dumpster fire should be de-funded.
"One less friend to call on". Yeah, I remember when this was a new release.
RIP Gordon Lightfoot
TV writers on strike again. Remember the last time they walked out? One of the casualties back then was "Bionic Woman", which basically folded during the strike and never returned.
Face it ladies, Bros Bike Better (Joe Biden aside).
JJ's first female star (Keri Russell), having polished off the verrrry good "The Americans", (and of course "Cocaine Bear") is back with another apparently verrrrry good show, "The Diplomat". I haven't seen it yet, but folks are gushing over this one. It also stars that guy from "The Man in the High Castle".
Meanwhile, JJ's 2nd female star is in the "Party Down" reboot. C'mon Jen, at least pretend you're trying. Start by firing your agent.
"What we know about Jordan Neely’s chokehold death on the New York subway"
Here's a shorter version: there's one less d-bag raising hell on the subway.
Wow, is there a strap-on shortage or something? Cuz that seems like a better option.
Looks like a whole bunch more former marines are needed down at the subway.
"Oppenheimer" trailer. I like the cast in this one.
Pro tip: be sure to hide under your desk when the bomb goes off. Trust me, it'll help.
A little clip of The Doctor and Donna Noble (and Dougie Howser), coming to a year near you, but sadly not for an extended stay.
More toxic than Ellen's show?
That these shows are toxic isn't the real surprise. The real surprise is that anyone, not confined to a wheelchair, watches these shows.
How much unmitigated bullsh!t could you pack into a 2:23 video?
To pretend that this painting says anything other than the painter had some yellow and blue paint he needed to get rid of is to live in an alternate universe. I'd rather have an original Hunter Biden hanging in my gallery.
And yet, this eyesore sold for 46.5 million dollars.
Quick, name an Ed Sheeran tune.............yeah, me neither.
This is an inappropriate use of the word "accomplishment". This was Sports Illustrating recruiting a tranny for their rag. No accomplishment required. Dude just had to say "yes" when the phone rang.
It's also an inappropriate use of the word "her", but who's counting?
BTW, I don't care if Martha Stewart is on the cover of Sports Illustrated, but I don't know what she has to do with sports.
That said, she's the same age my pops was when he died and he could have easily passed for her father, so kudos to Martha for giving hope to those of us yet to turn 81.
Why don't Harry and Meghan just go home and think about how they're going to spend Meghan's reparations cheque?
I don't believe this BS about their 2 hour car chase.
Does anyone know of anyone who has ever bought a copy of Sports Illustrated? Why would someone ever do that? Obviously, if your tranny son is on the cover, you'll want to buy up ALL the copies so no one finds out about your, um, son. But aside from that, does anyone actually shell out for SI?
Sooooo, how long before AI can start churning out new seasons of "Alias"?
With over 100 eppies to "learn" from, surely AI can get the gist of the show and it can't be long until the scripts are as good as anything Bad Robot came up with. And who needs real live actors anymore?
Let's remove S4's standalones from the "learning" process, though.
Remember 14 years ago when the famous moron, Kanye West, tried to steal Taylor Swift's big moment and now Taylor owns the world and Kanye is still just a famous moron?
Yeah, me too, I remember that.
I'll bet Iran doesn't have a migrant crisis at their southern border. Not an incoming migrant crisis anyway.
Biden's next press secretary?
Ticks a lot of boxes.
I remember MY first beer.
Christmas gets a day. Pride gets a month.
Wouldn't an afternoon in November be enough?
On this cold, rainy "Pansexual Visibility Day", let's celebrate this tweet instead of some stupid made up day that no one has ever celebrated in real life.
Target has "Tuck Friendly Undies", just in time for Father's Day.
Because we all know your Dad doesn't want to DO your Mom, he wants to BE your Mom.
As the thousands of you lurkers here at LTA will recall, I watched the pilot for "True Lies" and immediately called it a dead show walking. It was an early call, reminiscent of FOX News calling Arizona for Joe Biden in 2020, but it was a no-brainer, cuz it wasn't a good show.
Network TV is dead and there are probably zero decent scripted shows on NBC/ABC/CBX/FOX right now and never will be again. Enjoy your Chicago:This and NCI:That and your FBI:Whatever, cuz that's all you'll ever have.
Time to let AI start writing scripts for network TV and see how that goes.
Every now and then I like to watch these interrogation videos even though they're a bit long. You just can't fathom the level of stupidity on display here. Of course, it's not unreasonable to assume that the victim was an Einstein, either
Note the Bristow family reunion in this trailer for Jen's "The Last Thing He Told Me".
This reviewer, although unable to spell Bristow, says Jen's new series is a crashing bore masquerading as a thriller and wishes out loud that she was watching an "Alias" reboot instead.
I haven't seen it, so I can't comment on the degree of dreckness, but at least Jen is trying something not involving a rom-com with Mark (I'm a raving lunatic) Ruffalo.
Look at this insufferable jackass, aka the Supreme Leader of Canada.
I didn't vote for him the first time, the second time, or the third time, and yet here he is. Lord have mercy.
Oh crap! I think I left my "menstruation bracelet" in the ladies room this afternoon (where I temporarily identified as a woman due to my ongoing issues with gender fluidity and also due to my desire to meet babes).
BTW, this Marci chick is a long-time-newsreader-turned-deadbeat-left-wing Trudeau cabinet minister. Not asking her to the prom, that's for sure.
So a Blue Jays pitcher retweets something about boycotting Bud Light and Target for their contributions to destroying society and he's forced to recite a boilerplate lawyer-approved apology and agree to re-education camp. I wouldn't be surprised if he has to do Dylan Mulvaney's chores for a month.
She looks so much cuter without those nasty boobies, don't ya think?
I've seen one (1) Mr Beast video and feel no need to watch another one (1). I never heard of him until 3 or 4 months ago, so curiousity sucked me in for one (1) viewing. That's it. No need to revisit this stuff.
Looks like some parents have a spine.. Still a minority, though.
Eco-terrorists. Run 'em over but try not to dent your fender. Nobody deserves a dented fender.
Translation: “I'm a pregnant woman with an ill-fitting suit and I do exist. No matter what anyone says, I'm living proof.”
If the whole Theranos thing was a scam and/or sham, what were her employees working at when she made them work late?
I have an idea. Give that money to the food bank and let the pride paraders take their chances. They're not actually serving any purpose.
Apple Vision Pro. Well, this certainly looks cool. But that price tag is a buzz kill.
Happy Pride Year from Canada's number one girlie-man.....and leader for life, apparently.
Dear God, please send help!!!
Notwithstanding that Anthony Bass didn't inspire much confidence on the mound, his real crime was in not bending the knee to the Pride mafia.
Would have been a real dilemma had his ERA been 1.10 or something like that. Then how do you get rid of your problem?
The NHL has shown it's players are growing tired of grovelling to the Pride industry and would have probably let this "indiscretion" slide, knowing that their fan base would be over it in no time, especially if their dissenting players notched a couple of early goals. Early goals are very healing.
The 2SLGBTQQIA+ community?
Community? Seriously, this is stronger than any password I've ever used to secure my online banking?
Oh, please.
Now, if they said ALL cable news should be taken off the air everywhere, they might be on to something.
2SLGBTQQIPAA+ "explained".
My freaking tax dollars at work.
Look at these fools.
Imagine having kids stupid enough to believe this nonsense. I'll bet they have Greta on speed dial.
In fairness to the hospital, how were they to know she was a girl? I mean when a girl tells you she's a boy, she's a boy. A girl knows these things.
Juneteenth tomorrow!
Is that the day where we all get to wear blackface to work and then clean out a Nike store on the way home?
Juneteenth "celebrations" ramping up. No word on whether the twerking portion of the festivities has begun.
Trying to figure out how Ed Sheeran can fill an MLB stadium by offering up such uninspiring music. A Walmart parking lot maybe, but a stadium?
Adam Schiff is just an insufferable dick. He may be the only one who doesn't realize it, but I predict that even he will come to recognize his own dickishness eventually.
He's not wrong.
A football season is like 18 games or something like that, so if your team sports a Pride Logo for a month it might as well just run with it for the whole season. Knock it off already.
Of course, I consider football to be a ridiculous sport anyway, so this just bolsters my argument.
Is Bud Light on puberty blockers yet?
The real story here is that people pay money to see Lana Del Ray, not that her set was late getting started because of her bad hair day.
Quick, name a Lana Del Ray song.....I'll wait for you. Not forever, of course, but I'll give you a minute.
Dylan Mulvaney seems to be going for the "Doctor Her" look.
In other news, he's a little peeved that he got ghosted by the good folks at Bud Light, but didn't say if he returned their beer (either before or after drinking it) in protest.
Elon is working some real magic with Twitter. WTF dude?
Seemed like a solid business plan.
is Twitter the last victim of cancel culture? Seems like poetic justice in a way, since Twitter pretty much single-handedly created cancel culture in the first place.
I agree 100%. JJ Abrams needs to go back to making TV..
The fact that his latest newsmaking project is a movie adaptation of Hot Wheels says everything we need to know about the state of JJ's career today. Basically, that it's in tatters.
"Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D." debuted on September 24, 2013 (remember "Don't touch Lola"?) One day earlier, "The Blacklist" entered the fray. Right this moment, we're down to the final strokes of TBL.
What these 2 shows have in common, aside from an almost identical start date, is that they are the last 2 shows on my broadcast network watch list, which used to be packed. When TBL wraps up in a few weeks, I will have no more network shows to pay any attention to. That's sad. What's even sadder is that I listened to some dweebs on the radio today talking about which TV series they would most like to see become a movie. This conversation was triggered by an apparent announcement that an old show called "Community" was about to hit the big screen. "Community", a show that I have never seen a single frame of, was a sitcom. Sitcoms should NEVER become movies. Have these people never seen "The Beverly Hillbillies" or one of the "Gilligan's Island" movies? Those things were awful. Leave them alone.
The contributors to this radio conversation suggested their choice for TV shows to become a movie would include, you guessed it, sitcoms. "Friends", "WKRP in Cincinatti". Whaaaaaat? How about "Chuck" or "Alias" or have people forgotten that these shows even existed? We're absolutely doomed, I tells ya.
I've never seen a Daniel Day Lewis movie. There, I said it.
So, just finished the series finale of "The Blacklist" and all I can really says is, after 10 years and 200+ episodes, I still don't really know what it was about.
Jen set to reprise her role as "Elektra" in the upcoming "Deadpool 3".
I haven't seen either previous "Deadpool" movie due to my utter fatigue with superhero movies.
"Elektra" wasn't much of a movie as I recall.
You should always have a trans-woman come off the bench to take the big kicks. Megan Rapinoe would tell you as much.
"Special Ops: Lioness" is something I would check out in a heartbeat if I had a subscription to Paramount+ , which is never gonna happen.
I spent a lot of time this week hearing about Bradley Cooper's fake nose. I actually had to Google Leonard Bernstein because, although I'm familiar with the name, I really had no idea who he was. Now that I know who he was, I'm not sure why BC would write a movie about a guy I had to Google. But, I guess as long as the nose knows.
How good could a Taylor Swift concert be? Not disrespecting Taylor here, but there is no way I would ever shell out the crazybucks for any concert, especially as long as Youtube is free.
The judge should have sentenced her to 3.5 years as my roomie.
Standing down and standing by.....for the next 20 years. By the time the Proud "Boys" re-enter society, Donald Trump will be 100 years old (and eerily orange).
The takeaway here? Don't throw your life away for your favourite politician. No matter which side of the spectrum they're on, they are not worth it and they wouldn't serve a weekend under house arrest for you.
And, while we're at it, what kind of a Proud Boy grovels for mercy in front of a judge? At that point, you're not a Proud Boy anymore, you're just a Silly Boy.
I must say that I'm looking forward to this brief, but welcome, return of The Doctor and Donna Noble. Donna does not appear to have aged as much as TD.
From the folks who gave us "Strike Back", comes "Who is Erin Carter?". Seven episodes. Good fun, a little crazy. Check it out....or don't.
"Covert Affairs": those were the days.
A rare "Dixon" sighting: "The Fall of the House of Usher".
Never saw a single episode of "Friends" or anything else Matthew Perry was ever in.
Every time I turn on the local news, I hear about people who are "experiencing homelessness". Two years ago they were just "homeless", now they're "experiencing homelessness". It's like if all the people in the cemetery are "experiencing deadness".
Who gave the go-ahead to change "make" a decision to "take" a decision?
I was looking forward to a brief respite from the abuse served up the writers of "Doctor Her". It sounded good on the surface. David Tennant and Catherine Tate were coming back for 3 eppies before the show further devolved into something completely unrecognizable to DW fans.
BUT, there will be no respite. Russell T. Davies revived the show back in 2005 but now he's come back to preside over its utter demise, turning it into a pandering pile of PC poop, although it was already well on its way.
Thank God the Queen herself will never have to see this.
Current viewing habits: "The Lazarus Project" and "Culprits"
Hands up if you miss "Homeland".
4 NHL players charged with sexual assault.
They must have run into E. Jean Carroll in the parking garage.
Two things I don't do: 1) pay attention to football and 2) chow down on fentanyl burgers while I'm paying attention to football
"Sloane and the Bristows in NYC.
If you can stomach the ladies from "The View" (I know, I know), here is Jen talking some "Alias".
She's gotta lose those big-ass glasses (not to mention the ladies of "The View").
Is there a new episode of "Alias" airing after tonight's Super Bore like there was 21 years ago?
I gave the Super Bore a hard pass for the LVIII year in a row. And, while we're at it, name an Usher song, I'll wait....take your time....no rush....I know it's right on the tip of your tongue. Yeah, me neither.
A town after my own heart. No rainbow crosswalk nonsense for these folks. Hopefully they've outlawed "land acknowledegments", too.
Geez, did I miss Oscars-so-Woke again this year?
In no way can Joy Reid's blonde mop-top be considered cultural appropriation. Not on my watch.
Whew! That reporter is the one who's on fire. Listen to her go.
As for the joker who "has emblazoned himself", does the blame lie with Trump or Israel? We know the "we are Hamas" crowd will blame Israel and Rachel Maddow will blame Trump. Whoever chants their BS the loudest goes home with first prize. Johnny, tell them what they could win!
Is there anything more juvenile than rappers and their "beefs" and their "diss tracks"? Can we not just use these clowns for medical experiments and then toss them out like that smelly stuff at the back of your fridge?
Drake vs. Lamar. How do you pick a winner if those are your only choices?
Dang. Here I am blogging to myself and now I'm gonna be late for my Pro-Hamas speed-dating event. And I still haven't finished my "From the river to the sea, I'm as stupid as can be" iron-on T-shirt.
Anymore, I just seem to lose track of the time.
Current status: experiencing zero climate anxiety. None. Whatsoever.
"B.C. serial killer Robert Pickton savagely attacked in prison, clinging to life".
Gee, shouldn't that be mandatory for serial killers?
Iranian President dies in helicopter crash.
Now do the Ayatollah!
What, no mass graves?? Does this mean we can ditch those ridiculous land acknowledegments and cast off our white guilt (yet again) until the next fabricated public shaming comes to light?
Actually, I skipped the white guilt part anyway, just like in the George Floyd days and "hands up, don't shoot" days.
Thank GOD my bank is festooned with Pride flags today. I was worried I wouldn't have anything obnoxious to stare at while I stood in line for a 1/2 an effing hour waiting for a chance to do business with the latest in an endless string of hapless trainees. No, I didn't say "trannies", I said "trainees".
Is anyone shocked that "Doctor Homo" is an epic failure?.
Isn't Russel T. Davies the same bloke who gave us Rose Tyler and Christopher Eccleston and David Tennant as The Doctor? Why does he want to trash his own legacy by pushing his unwanted gay agenda on generations of DW fans?
Moving the show to Disney+ is hardly a winning strategy either. I've never subscribed to Disney+ and I won't be doing so in order to partake of the dying days of DW.
CNN showed a 90 minute "cheapfake" last night.It was cleverly edited to look like a Trump-Biden debate. The video was heavily manipulated to make it look like Joe has moderate dementia, when we all know he's the sharpest, most robust man to ever hold the office of President of the Younited States.
Watching Hollyweird elites crap their designer briefs over Creepy Joe's dementia antics is comedy gold. All that's missing is Samuel L. Jackson with another video where little kids tell Americans to "Wake the F Up!". Remember that timeless classic?
If Rachel Maddow doesn't show up for "work" this week, I guess we'll know who the shooter was.
Lotsa people talking about "divine intervention" sparing The Donald, but I wonder how the Comperatore family feels every time they hear about it. Divine intervention cuts both ways.
Despite being "sharp as a tack", Creepy Joe takes a powder and endorses his DEI Veep. Forget "God Bless America". It's time for "God Help America".
Democrats and Left Wing Media: "Joe Biden did the right thing for the country"
Translation: "Joe Biden got thrown in front of a moving train by his own party"
The only show I'm watching right now is "Orphan Black: Echoes", obviously based on the original. I like this one better than the original, which I eventually gave up on. OBE is on AMC, home of most of the programming that I've watched in recent years.
The takeaway from the Paris Olympics? Men excel at women's boxing. I mean they're really good at it.
If we all day-drink for 4 years, we may not even notice the Kamala years. We'll be unburdened by what's yet to come.
Barack has still got it. He came that close to having me believing that Joe Biden was a great president. Of course, I wasn't drunk, so I didn't fall for it, but man, the guy's still got it.
Will the new "Burn Notice" movie come out before or after the "Chuck" movie?
I like the admission: "With cable TV struggling all over, USA Network said last year that it would take a cue from the success of Suits and start developing more shows reminiscent of their "Blue Sky" era, which included huge successes like Monk, Psych, Suits, White Collar, and Burn Notice as well as some fan-favorite series that haven't fared as well on streaming, like Royal Pains and Covert Affairs."
USA ditching their "Blue Sky" formula rendered the network irrelevant, and they're just figuring that out now?
So, Blogger finally added the "reply" option, but then took away the "preview" option. Better make sure my links work before i hit "publish".
In defence of Dems everywhere, they are NOT guilty of covering up Joe Biden's dementia for the past 5 years. It's been on full display for all to see.
A lot of political tension was released last night when Taylor Swift broke the news that she was backing Comma-La. For the longest time, it was unclear which way she would lean. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!
Donald J. Trump currently pitching a shutout against Team Assassins. This is not totally unexpected, since Team Assassins is currently in a re-building phase with several of their veterans having been traded away at the deadline.
Jen out there shilling for CommaLa Harris is not attractive. ! I like to think Sydney would kick her ass for that.
