“Everwood” Season 2 FINALLY came out on DVD (spent the week watching it & no other dvds). Seems silly to write a mini-review for “Everwood” since its easily one of my top ten favorite shows of all time. It’s got teen angst, humor, family drama, romance, and it’s creator went on to do “Brothers & Sisters” after it was canceled. If you’ve never watched it, you should give it a try.
So today I had planned to do a simple hike, but it turned into craziness when I got lost and ended up miles & miles away from my car. (Read on …)
This is pretty crazy and a clear sign that the whole TV industry is shifting. Ad rates for “The Simpsons” are higher for Hulu than they are on FOX (Same thing goes for “CSI”).
Marketers, who are now considering commitments for the 2009-2010 TV season, are willing to pay more because TV.com and Hulu.com, owned by investors including News Corp., NBC and Walt Disney Co., provide committed viewers who actively seek out shows. There are fewer commercials, and consumers are twice as likely to recall Web ads, Poltrack said, citing Nielsen.
Apparently Hayden Panettiere “drops her towel” in her new movie, which means she’ll most likely be showing off her buns and not her ta-ta’s. Fanboys are going crazy, which is just creepy cause 1) she’s not attractive and 2) I still remember when she was like 10 and on “Ally McBeal.”
“Desperate Housewives” killed off Nicollette Sheridan to cut back the budget, so its kind of surprising that they are bringing in Drea de Matteo to replace her. Plus her face looks like aged leather and is really scary!
“Pirate Bay” was sold for 7+ million bucks and will be going legit. It’s really NOT a big deal since only noobs would use Pirate Bay anyway.
Encase you are technologically challenged and hadn’t heard, Firefox 3.5 is out. If you’ve never used the browser you can get it here (you reallllyyy should be using this over IE) and if you already have version 3.0 then simply go to “help” on the menubar and “check for updates.
Encase you didn’t know… A major outage on Comcast’s end has caused almost all of their customers in Maryland, Delaware, and Virgina to lose internet.
Here is an awesome interview with Brian Fuller where he spills the beans on what would’ve happened if “Pushing Daises” had a third season:
The Empire Strikes Back. You’re separating R2D2 and C3PO and sending them off into two different directions, and so that was going to be Chuck and Ned. Chuck was going to go off with the father, and Ned was going to try to chase her down.That was the heart of it, and part of the thing that was going to be part and parcel of the third season was Chuck being exposed and what happens when part of your family shows up and says, “Just kidding! I wasn’t murdered on the beach in Aruba.” (Read on …)

In some great casting news, Joanna Garcia is coming to “Gossip Girl” for at least four episodes (I’m still pissed at The CW for canceling “Privilege” so I’m hoping gets hired for an extended stay on “Gossip Girl”).
In some interesting news, Mark Pellegrino, who appeared as the mysterious Jacob on “Lost” has been cast as Lucifer on “Supernatural.” No word yet on how many episodes he’s been hired for, but since last season ended with him escaping from hell and this season is all about him taking over the world, I’m sure it’s more than just a few episodes.
I’ve liked Callum Blue since I first saw him on “Dead Like Me” so I feel sorry that he’s been cast as Zod on “Supernatural.” Has his career gotten so bad taht “Smallville” is the best he can do? Sure the sure use to be watchable, but now it’s just painful.
In the very last moments of the weekend it looked like “Transformers 2: Revenge of the Fallen” was going to take “The Dark Knight’s” 5-day gross of $203.8 million. But it didn’t happen! “T2:RotF’ only made $201.2 million (of course if you count foriegn grosses it’s at$387 million).
If you want to enter the contest or simply learn more about it, then make sure you check out it’s official rules here.
Also, “King of Fighters XII” has announced a new Facebook contest. Check it out here!
“Dragon Hunters” is like a forigen version of the traditional Dreamworks movie. However, where it really shines is the art direction. The world that’s created is interesting and as someone who enjoys the fantasy genre, I just wanted more, but unfortunately the movie was written for kinds so very little mythos is shared.
In short, the movie is about a British chick who is obsessed with Jane Austen. She gets sucked into “Pride and Prejuduce” and screws up the story. So then she spends the rest of the movie trying to fix things. It was very slow at parts, but with a little bit of fast forwarding, I enjoyed the movie.
For a kids movie, this is higher quality along the lines of the first “Spy Kids” as opposed to the crap that was “Hotel for Dogs.”
There is no reason for a human being to watch this movie.
What the heck?! Internet and cable are out and the earliest Mediacom can send someone is next week. Even threatening cancellation only bumped the service call to Saturday.
