I know the title of these blog entries won’t be very exciting but in the interest of not being too confusing I guess this will have to do. Probably not the most active of hobbies but my biggest interest is TV. I love television and since the advent of DVR (Digital Video Recording) I don’t miss a show. Well at least not a show that I’m interested in.
This week the prize for best show is going to have to go to 24. We knew a two hour special would be exciting – even if the first half wasn’t that great -- but after terrorists took over the White House it was non-stop thrills the way only Jack Bauer can supply. General Juma, dictator of the fictional African nation of Sangala, made his last stand. Invading the White House and holding 46 hostages including the president’s daughter. Meanwhile, President Allison Taylor was trapped in a safe-room seemingly helpless – if you’d call helpless being accompanied by ex-CTU (Counter Terrorism Unit) Agent and all around kick-ass spy dude Jack Bauer.
Where did the show leave us? On the edge of our seats! President Taylor surrendered herself to Juma, computer genius and Jack’s side-kick Chloe O’Brian is in holding for tampering with federal material, and the Vice President won’t authorize a rescue attempt. We’re only half way through the season and there’s this much insanity. That’s why I love this show!
Most of my other programs were lacking on content and entertainment value. The scenes from next week however are off the hook! Can anyone say SWEEPS?
As for reality programs, I didn’t watch this season of The Bachelor, but this week made me wish I had. Apparently the bachelor, Jason Mesnick, dumped the winner, Melissa Rycroft, on the reunion special. I can only imagine how Melissa would have dealt with this in the real world. Luckily Mel lives in the “reality” world and after doing a media tour fit for a feature film she has announced she’ll be on next seasons Dancing with the Stars. Ah reality-folk I hope your irrational behavior entertains you as much as it entertains the rest of us.
Speaking of irrational reality ladies this week on The Bad Girls Club, Whitney and Tiffany jumped Amber M. – yes there are two Ambers – and next week looks like they’re getting arrested. Did I mention that they were in MEXICO when they did this? Have fun being a “bad girl” in that cell, Buena suerte chicas!

ReplyDeleteI don't watch the tv show, 24, but it seems quite dramatic from your description of the episode.
ReplyDeleteI used to watch 24 when it first came on, but I haven't seen it since.
ReplyDeleteBut I guess it's nice to see girls can still be cast on reality shows after being publicly humiliated and dumped on national TV. Good job, ABC.
