    Survivor: Blood vs. Water

    Man, it seems like they always tote out that 'cling to a fucking tree' challenge when they want to simply disappear some poor slob who couldn't possibly hope to support an extra 70 lbs of body weight longer than 2 small women. John seemed like he was gritting his teeth when he had to stand there...

    The Blacklist

    Ugh, finally gave up on this. So tired of Shows like this and The Mentalist with Scooby Doo-like plots, magic forensics, cornball Dick Tracy villains (each more deadly than the last! *mustache twirl* MUHAHAHA), unbelievable dialogue and actions to drive the predictable plot along its well worn...

    Most screwed up thing your parent/bro/sis/gf/bf has told you?

    I know very little detail about his time 'over there'. I know he was in the army infantry and served in France, so was likely in the thick of some heavy stuff. We weren't real Clannish with extended family, that is to say we never lived down the street from, or even in the same states as...

    Most screwed up thing your parent/bro/sis/gf/bf has told you?

    Mom told us that when she was a kid, she had some crooked teeth. My grandfather made her go to the dentist and get them all pulled and have them replaced with dentures so she'd be "able to find a man" or some such thing. My grandfather was kind of quiet and spooky. Very stern and no tolerance...

    Survivor: Blood vs. Water

    Remarkable. During that exact scene I told my brother, "This is the first time I have literally cringed and had to glance away from some uncomfortable shit where I was actually embarrassed for someone on the TV".

    Survivor: Blood vs. Water

    I agree she has self-esteem issues. I don't know that I could agree that at her core she is good. I suppose it's subjective as hell but her getting giddy with delight at the thought of blindsiding people and becoming super sour and declaring it mean and deceptive when it happens to her speaks...

    Survivor: Blood vs. Water

    Bets on how long Hayden and Kat last after the season ending show? I'll start it off with 38 days for my guess!
  8. Pumpkin Thief

    The Blacklist

    They tried to excuse that by having him magically steal her cell phone during his unmanly choke-out session.
  9. Pumpkin Thief

    Survivor: Blood vs. Water

    I find Colton's "meh, I'm a huge cunt and since I was unable to control these people in any way, fuck this, I quit" to actually be more honorable than Kat The Retard's blubbering and begging. Oddly, it looks like the usual taboo of "couples" getting the couples instantly split up (ever since...

    Survivor: Blood vs. Water

    I laughed when Kat the Retarded did a Kenny and pulled the drawstrings on her hoodie when the wrong Laura was sent packing.

    The Blacklist

    There was a nice song in that last episode, though. 'Here with me' by Robot Koch.

    Survivor: Blood vs. Water

    If I was John, id fuck Candace like a savage hyena all night for Brad to enjoy. Funny episode.
  13. Pumpkin Thief

    Survivor: Blood vs. Water

    I don't care what Colton said in some interview. He's a wormy pathological person, and when wormy pathological chaos didn't help him and his antics were largely ignored by his tribemates, he left the game. He stomps his feet and holds his breath until his face turns blue and when that doesn't...

    Survivor: Blood vs. Water

    Yeah, that tribe Is in the fetal position mentally - letting Brad run shit into the ground. Just bizarre. I guess they are just trying to hang on until a merge and don't even care at all about the challenges at this point. Makes for less than stellar viewing enjoyment. And yes, fuck those...

    Survivor: Blood vs. Water

    Yeah, noticed that too. They looked like newlyweds with Tyson sitting right behind him, arms draped around his neck. Guess they bonded! Glad Rupert's gone and apparently so is his wife. Loved Brad's demonstrative violent fantasy display of what he'd like to do to Gervais. "I can't wait...

    The Blacklist

    Was looking forward to this because I like Spader. Seemed like a cobbling together of so many other shows/movies and suffers from many of the problems 1 hour shows have that must provide a resolution within 35 minutes of actual TV-time: Too much deus ex machina. Magical police work, magic...

    Survivor: Blood vs. Water

    I loved Brad's reasoning for the big bro-lliance (which is made even more hilarious that he is running it). "Us big studly menz gotta stick together! These weak women and little weak pussies like Cochran are winning survivor these days!" Goddamn, this guy is going to be fun to watch. I'd...
  18. Pumpkin Thief

    Survivor: Blood vs. Water

    Stupid episode. That ex-nfl guy is a dumber than a bucket of shit and the main source of lulz so far from what looks to be a painful season ahead. No one sticks out so far as really likable to root for.

    The Men Who Built America - History Channel

    Let me know if they do a section over Rudolf Diesel. I'd be curious to know the official historian-take on his death. I say Rockefeller had him iced!

    What's the story behind your Rerolled name?

    Was doing a quest near Undercity with my lowbie undead assassin where you had to steal pumpkins from some farmer's land or some such. A friend of mine I was questing with said, "undead look funny as fuck skittering around stealing pumpkins." Kinda stuck with me.

    Nothing to watch!? Why, good sir, we have 'American Ninja Warrior' coming soon! The true fried snickers bar of Television!

    Nik Wallenda walks across the Grand Canyon on a tightrope?

    Neat stunt I guess but holy shit what a self-aggrandizing turd with all that Jesus bullshit.

    Hannibal

    I am at least glad to read that Will Graham will be much scrappier and a coherent player next season. His mopey, almost crying, speaking in strained hushed tones thing was getting tedious.

    Hannibal

    This episode reminded me of an old x-files episode with the rotting-yet living-corpse girl-thing.

    Hemlock Grove - Netflix series

    It's only unique in the fact that it is totally non-unique. An absolute cobbling together of other people's shows/stories/themes through and through. Let me know how you like the books though.

    Scenes that made you cry like a bitch

    Watership Down, at the end when it shows elderly Hazel die in his sleep and he is admitted into the Elite Owsla while 'Bright Eyes' by Art Garfunkel plays. I used to read that book over and over while listening to Pink Floyd's 'The Wall' when I was like 14 or so. I can no longer hear music from...

    Hannibal

    Gillian Anderson still looking sexy. I like her as Hannibal's shrink. Seemed weird that Hannibal took the risk of putting Graham onto the scent of Black Dexter after BD had disclosed that he had followed Hannibal and watched him murder.

    Survivor 26: Caramoan

    *Insert pict of Fonzie water skiing and a shark* Come on CBS, this show works because of its fundamental premise - throw people on an island and watch them ride the line between cooperation, and slitting each other's throats for a million dollars. This level of gimmickry is not warranted and...

    Survivor 26: Caramoan

    Only just now got to see the finale. Great season, very satisfying having Cochran win, and with a clean sweep. Dawn is no goddamn survivor villain. She is just a very weak soul who is irritating because she believes she is a pillar of strength. LOL@: No one asking Sherri any real questions...

    I pictured(heard) what you just wrote as having been made by a voice coming from your avatar. Good times.

    Survivor 26: Caramoan

    She functions with lots of Mormon prayer and alchohol I bet. If she makes it to the final 3, be prepared for tidal waves of shoulder-quaking sobbing, appeals to emotionalism - bringing up her kids and her general life's trials and tribulations etc, things that should never be considered when...
  32. Pumpkin Thief

    Survivor 26: Caramoan

    Agreed, Cochran's game to lose. Eddie could win but he'll need to untuck his penis and stop dancing around to 'Goodbye Horses' and win some challenges. Sherri, as you said has no presence, is only riding coattails, and the vibe back at the Ponderosa says Dawn has no shot.

    Survivor 26: Caramoan

    I do not remember one time on this show where people said, "gee that was nice of you to give up XXX for the good of everyone else. Here's a million dollars for your kindness". I have, however, seen what happened to Brenda happen about 10 times before. "Oh hey, you gained favor with everyone...

    Hannibal

    Good episode and I liked that they worked in Dr. Chilton, but I am not sure how I felt about the showdown between poor Anna Chlumsky from 'My Girl' and Hannibal. It was a direct ripoff from the showdown between Will Graham and Lecter in 'Red Dragon'.

    Survivor 26: Caramoan

    I don't think the individual players have any idea of who is getting what kind of airtime or why that would go into their strategies if they did know. I do like Sherrie's chances of flying in under the radar into the final 3 though. She's so non-threatening physically, and also doesn't seem a...

    Survivor 26: Caramoan

    Agreed, Eddie is a total fucking dud. Hard to figure him for a fire fighting EMT. I could see that guy being some 63 year old sugar mama's kept cabana boy, maybe.

    Survivor 26: Caramoan

    Good shit! Looks like maybe Brenda's fangs are coming out finally. They make it seem as if she is calling for Cochran's head next week.

    Hannibal

    *spoilerish if you haven't read books* I didn't mind some focus on the dynamic between Crawford and his wife since I remember her dying in the books and him being a wreck over it. Cut her some slack, she has stage 4 lung cancer and is trying to reconcile her own mortality while also...

    Survivor 26: Caramoan

    I agree about Cochran. I've been rooting for him some, but he's being a bit douchey lately which I doubt is his normal persona. It just doesn't become him.

    Brenda probably said fuckit to the pig brains and filled up on peanut butter.
