Jimmy Fallon back on Latenight?


Sounds like it won't be long till Jimmy Fallon is back on latenight....The Story


Also are you a fan of the celebrity prank phone call? Well the latest one I found is a personal greating from FABIO. These are a bit tense but seriously funny. Check out the list of other celebs and make sure to let me know any new ones that you find so that I can add them to the list... By the way Dwight Schrute and Samuel L. Jackson no longer are live site, at least that I can find. To bad as Dwight's was really funny.

On that note don't forget to check out Rainn Wilson on SNL this weekend. I actually have hope that he can pull the show out of the ditch it has been in since the amazing Justin Timberlake Episode. If so do you think his bobble head sales will pick back up?

Grey's Anatomy should be sent home



Thursday nights had much promise going into the fall season. NBC's the Office, Fox was throwing down with the results show of American Idol and ABC thought they had something with Grey's Anatomy. After this week I am not so sure. The show has made the characters nearly unwatchable. The plot has now become predictable. The episode was the 3rd in a series of shows that let us believe Meredeth Grey's life was on the line. I don't think many people thought they would really killer off. They should of. It would actually would have shown some guts by the producers. Meredeth is not that great of a character and she seems to be a very flat character. Nothing she does would surprise anyone because she hasn't defined herself other than being indecisive and boring. For me the only character that is even bearable is Alex as he has at least shown some depth. They need to do an overhaul on that show and create some enjoyable characters or they will not enjoy a viewership that is ready to jump off into the deep end.

In related news, Grey's could loose one of the only other strong characters in the show Addison Sheppard. She would not go very far though... Read more here.

As for the song of the day, I am a big fan of Tegan and Sara. Their polished anthem Walking with a Ghost was featured on medium but makes as much since for this post on many different levels. Right click on the link and "save link as" to download the file.

Lost in American Idol Heroes...



There are lots of shows that I try to catch each week. I plan on sharing my thoughts on many of them from time to time. Lost certainly deserves some attention and will get some as I get a bit more organized. American Idol is blogged more than any other show and will have me expounding on its contestants, but not for a few weeks as I am still not sure what to think of any of them. Heroes however deserves lots of attention, now. I am really suprised how well this show is working. It took a very similar approach to Lost; create very indepth characters and then reveal a little bit about them at a time. At times they lead you astray as to who they really are with clever plot lines, which is where some of the magic occurs. Heroes unlike Lost tends to push the plot much faster and thus I create the buzz that Lost had when it was in its first season.


Last week comic book great Stan Lee made a cameo. The week before it was a hero from Star Trek. While it may be cool to give props to those guys I think it actually takes away from the stars that are being created in front of us. This plus overdoing the gore of Silar's killings are my only complaints about a show that certainly deserves all the praise that it is getting.
Also for those of you with out Tivo, you migh have gotten hooked on the song from the Ford Edge commerical. Good news you can get DEE's hit for free, thanks to the Ford Folks.

Are you on board with BSG yet?



So it would seem that many people are not yet on board with the now BSG - Battle Star Galactica. I certainly would recomend it. The best part is that there are already 3 great seasons to watch. Well 2 and a half. This is a really great show. If you like Sci-fi you will like it from the start if not it might take you few episodes to understand the characters.

Unlike the Lost and Hero's, this show is not a serial in that it doesn't leave you on the edge of a cliff on every episode. I enjoy serials/cliffhangers, but it is nice to end the weekend with a nice package all wrapped up with a bow on top.

Oh and thanks to TV-Links.co.uk you can catch up easy. I would however recomend watching it on DVD as it is a very well shot program. But not everyone has a brother who sends them the seasons on DVD like I do!!!



It's coming...

It's about time to kick things off. I will be spending a week or two getting things together in order to start on the right foot, but check back and you will soon be exposed to the wonderful world of the TV Frog.
