Premier Week on TV

Chuck:
Ok, Chuck was so hyped and and overplayed in commercials that I thought this TV Show would SUCK.  Well it did not.  I actually think this show has potential.  They made Chuck out to be a dumb ass buffoon in the commercials and that was a real downer for me.  After watching the pilot, I must say I am impressed.  I have it set to record every week now.  Hopefully they can develop this better.  Definitely a "must see TV"

Big Bang Theory:
How can people with such high IQ's be so stupid?  This show went way beyond dork into stupidity.  I am going to give this show one or two more chances then its over if it does not improve.  They try to overcome stupidity by throwing out "cool words" like "String Theory" etc.  This is a MAJOR OVERPLAY of nerd.

How I Met Your Mother:
I am glad this show is back on the air.  The comedy is usually good and humorous (read as: Tramp Stamp) and the dry humor is even laughable at times.  Definitely in my list of have to watch.

The Unit:
Oh this is going to be a good season and they teased with a to be continued season opener.  You bastards.  I find myself watching this before a lot of shows and is very high on my list of must see.

Heroes:
UGH!!!  You guys opened SOO many story threads.  I will be surprised if you can fit them into this season but I love it either way!  The season opener had a lot of cool plots land and closed one thread from last season.  If you are reading this before watching, skip the next sentences.  WHY DID YOU KILL GEORGE TAKAEI?!?!  And we could not tell who the assassin was.  Sometimes suspense goes to being irritated!  But I still loved it.  Oh and thanks for bringing "You know who" back.  Can not wait until next week to see how it unfolds.  :)

Eureka:
Yes, I should have posted this a few weeks ago when it premiered but it gets to go here.  This is a staple of my viewing.  Love every week.  They pull off smart without being dumb (see Big Bang Theory).

Weeds:
!!!!!!! I think that about sums up Weeds.  Wow, the first few episodes have been spectacular.  I wish this show was an hour long.  30 minutes just is NOT enough for this show.  It always leaves me wanting more.

Californication:
When I saw the previews for this show, I had split feelings.  Well those have now wavered over to the side of awesome.  The fact they can say shit, fuck, ass, etc AND show T&A when it fits into the storyline makes this show.  I like the fact the characters can be themselves and really be developed.  Its hard to take a character seriously when they use "frack" or "fudge" or any "soft word" instead of the real word.  Censorship sucks.  Showtime rocks!

I have other shows on my DVR to still watch.  When I get them digested, I'll post a quick cool or crap message about them.  If you did not get to see the cool shows this week, make sure you catch them next week.

Why did we fight wars?

If we are just going to give our country back to the Mexicans (and other illegal immigrants), why did we fight a war to take it in the first place?  Freedom Folks posted yet another alarming action taken by our stupid political leaders.  They are no longer requiring proof of citizenship for Drivers Licenses in the state of New York.  The reason?  Because non-licensed drivers are more likely to get in an accident.  Well guess what.  A piece of plastic in your wallet does not make you a better driver.  Can we say "Dee de dee" on this one?  Instead of giving them more liberties, GET THEM OUT OF THE COUNTRY or make them become legitimate. 

Remember, all you political retards out there, WE FOUGHT IN WARS to get this land.  You are pissing all that away and saying all those lives were not worth it when you do stupid crap like this.

Actually I blame the American Citizen because they are too busy in there normal life to even care what is happening here.  Yeah melting pot my ass.  Its more like Illegal Immigrant soup and Citizens are getting left out of the mix. 

Now let me put this out there before all you haters start commenting.

I HAVE NOTHING WRONG WITH IMMIGRATION.  PERIOD.

We have these laws in place to stop criminals and over population.  Most of these immigrants go on welfare and food stamps.  Yes they deserve a better life but I have a better idea.

Take all the money we are spending on illegal immigrations, free health care, free everything and take that money and redirect it into helping them BETTER THERE COUNTRY.  Why is that a bad idea?  Why does America have to be the only "Land of opportunity"?  If these Illegal Immigrants would spend HALF as much energy trying to fix there country as they are trying to get legalized here, they would be doing THERE fellow countrymen a favor, not just themselves.

What kind of immigrant whom wants to make America there home does this to the American flag?  Does this not alarm you? You need to wake up America.

NFL Still Sucks and Now with improved SUCK!

I'm not a real big football fan and do not stick my face in front of the TV every Sunday and Monday night to watch it.  My Mother was visiting this weekend and she likes to watch football so I watched it with her.  When did celebrating a touchdown or awesome play become a penalty?  I went WTF like 8 times during the Ravens game.  How many punt return touchdowns do you see?  The team should have (and did) gone apenuts to celebrate.  I was even excited about it... until the ref called a flag.  Why?  Because they celebrated.  That is a bunch of bullcrap.  THE FANS LOVE IT!  Why take a piece of entertainment out of football?  Its like fining NASCAR drivers for having an accident on the track because they delayed the race.  I ONLY watch NASCAR rarely and only for the accidents.  You start fining NFL players for ENTERTAINING then football will be an even more dry sport and you WILL start alienating fans.

Totally Ridiculous.  Glad I do not watch all games because those foul calls pissed me off and ruined the experience for me.  I have played sports in my youth and its about having FUN.  Yeah NFL is about money also, but its suppose to be FUN so the fans have FUN.
