I have to be brief because I have a panel to get to, but here are my weekly thoughts on “Lost.” ↓ Read the rest of this entry…

Heading out of town to attend a conference for work (they are paying for gas, food, and a hotel!). Since I won’t be back till late Saturday, I probably won’t be doing any other posts this week (except my weekly thoughts on “Lost”). Also, I will be on Twitter all week so if you don’t already follow me, feel free to start doing so.
So I don’t mind saying that there will be some deaths on “Lost” before the end of the season. Below the break I’ll share some speculation as to who may be kicking it. ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
Nikki Finke got his hands on an internal report and apparently NBC’s non-office spin-off really sucks:
I say “supposed” because there are problems galore in the rough-cut pilot, according to a March 18th-dated “Consumer And Market Intelligence Research Summary” which I saw this weekend. Considering the show starts airing April 9th, can Parks And Recreation get fixed in time? You be the judge: here are some excerpts from the 12-page report…
Finke then gives some excerts from the report so if you are curious, make sure you go to the link above.
After the break I’ll list Yahoo’s “100 Movies To See Before You Die,” But in all fairness, the list sucks. I’m shocked that neither “Fight Club” or “Seven” made the list. Then from a geek standpoint how could they include “Star Wars: A New Hope” over “Empire Strikes Back?” ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
There are only four “Doctor Who” specials left before David Tennant steps down as The Doctor and Matt Smith steps in and it seems that all The Doctor’s former companions, including Billie Piper, will be there for when the Timelord regenerates. Little else is known about the final episode, which won’t air for at least another year.
CBS announced yesterday that “Big Bang Theory” has been renewed for two more seasons. They also made the same deal for “Two and a half men” while no word has been said yet about the fate of “How I Met Your Mother.”
“Kontrol Freeks” are little nubbins that attach to a controller’s analog sticks. They only cost $9.99 and I thought it was a joke when I was sent them to review. However, after trying them out for two days I’m fully convinced they are the greatest thing a gamer can do to improve their accuracy in a first person shooter. ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
In the fan video above Chad Michael Murray says that’s he’s being let go from “One Tree Hill” due to budget reasons. This could be fake, except rumors that he wouldn’t be back because the show had to trim it’s budget have been surfacing for about three weeks now.
In honor of Blizzard’s Creative Writing Contest, I’ve decided to post fake entries of the horrible kind of fan fiction that they are about to be burried. Today’s piece: “Griffik: Chapter One&2″ ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
I considered doing a huge write-up of the series finale of “Battlestar Galactica” but then was like “f* it!” The past two season have been crap and so of course the series finale was going to be crap. I feel sorry for everyone out there who had high hopes. My condolesence go out to you.
So there is a big death on a TV show that is so shocking I’m not putting the name of the show until after the break! ↓ Read the rest of this entry…
This is too weird, but very awesome. In an upcoming episode of “Bones” Booth will hallucinate and spend some time in Quahog with Stewie Griffin.
“This is going to sound odd, but it is a completely believable event given [Booth's condition],” maintains executive producer Stephen Nathan, who declined to reveal the mystery ailment causing his visions. “It’s not just a fantasy of ours. There’s medical research to back up what’s going on with Booth. There are conditions where you can see cartoon characters.”
But don’t expect to see Emily Deschanel’s Brennan sparring with the evil tot: The cartoon cameo will be limited to Boreanaz. “We were never going to have Stewie just walk into the lab and start talking to everybody — that would be a bald and shameless crossover,” Nathan adds with a laugh. “It was always conceived to be a realistic hallucination… one that would lead us to what we wanted to do with Booth and Brennan.”
Nikki Finke is reporting that the “Twilight” DVD is debuting at least in the Top 5 DVD one-day sales in the last two years.
Want some of that bailout money? The best you can do is use it to go see “Monsters vs Aliens” in 3D at the price of seeing it in 2D. You are techincially supposed to be a Bank of America customer to take advantage of this, but as long as you have a Bank of America in your zip code you’re fine. Though I seriously don’t get HOW bailout money could be used for something so stupid as this.
