American Idol

I started watching the show several years ago and I have to say I liked it, but the last two years I have really been disappointed with the show. I like Simon, the man knows talent when he sees it and he calls it like they see it, Randy is a good as well. Fox made a mistake when they got rid of Paula. She was the heart of the show. They did not really need a fourth judge hey they need an odd number. When they choose Ellen Degenerate (yes I spelled it like than on purpose). I did not watch at all. I do not watch her talk show and I am not about to watch her tell people if they are good or not when she has no idea herself. Steven Tyler and Jennifer Lopez I have heard are the next two judges and I have to wait and see how they do. I figure one will be better than the other, we will just have to wait and see in January 2011.

My #1 weakness on TV

One of my weaknesses is I watch a soap opera. I have it recorded daily on my DVR. What makes matters worse is I have found a site that gives me a day ahead summery of everything that will be on the show. To be honest it has almost got to the point that I would rather reed the summery than watch the show. After all the summery takes all but 5 minutes of my time with no commercials and the show takes a hour and it has commercials all the time, or so it seams. If you want to know the site name leave me a comment and I will be more than happy to post it.

Reality shows-Who cares, I don't

I was watching television the other day and saw the entertainment newscaster mention something about a Snookie or a snooker the name caught my ear. Who would call them self Snookie. I watched and it did not take me long to figure it out. This person is obviously a crackhead or something. I understand that she came up with the name to draw attention to herself and well she does. The girl looks like she's mad all the time and a drunk to boot, but then many new reality stars in Hollywood do now (Kate from Kate plus 8). With so many reality shows on TV sometimes I wonder if there is anything else to watch, there is even a reality channel. Some of the shows are fine but give me a break. I can't wait until they start getting old and people stop watching them, I know I already have and I don't plan to start back.

Untruthful telemarketers

I understand that telemarketers , or those people that call you at the worst possible times are just doing their job, but give me a break. This one company called me asking for money. I told them I was unemployed and had been for several years. The person kept on asking me to give $100 or more for their congressional candidate that was running for reelection in congress. "Our candidate really needs your support," that is what the person said over the phone. It was a good pitch the only problem is the candidate is not from my state, not even in my time zone. And they want me to give them $100 and I know the money is going to be used to pay the people calling me, and aggravating me. Yes I have done the research on these things that is where the money goes. Most if not all of the money people give to so called charities or the like is used to pay the people doing the calling. I have given in the past, but only is the amount I gave was tax deductible. If the person said it was and wasn't I would not send the money. One time they called me and asked why I had not sent the money I simply told them them "You lied to me about it being tax deductible so I guess I lied to you about me sending it. Take me off you list, because I do not trust your organization to tell me the truth."

Kicking the Kardashians

One set of the reality stars I simply do not get is the Kardashians. I think there are three sisters total but I;m not sure, anyway. One looks like a guy, hey at first I thought it was a brother that was gay or liked to dress like a woman. If you look at the three of them together and you can easily tell which one I am talking about. Another looks like she is so stuck on herself that no man can measure up to her standards unless he is a king, prince, or multimillionaire. I'm not sure about the other sister I guess she may be a little bit more down to earth, but then who knows. She may have a secret she is waiting to tell. I tried to watch the show and all I saw was several woman bragging on how much money they have and making the men in their lives look stupid. I'm all for girl power, but give me a break. I pity Bruce Jenner being stuck with these women and having to put up with them, Lord help him when they have PMS. He probably gets in a hole and waits for the storm to pass.

New fall shows

I got my new Entertainment weekly yesterday and it had a list of all the new and returning fall shows. To be honest who comes up with these shows and the people in them.

I'll begin with my favorite show's former time slot replacement. Hawaii five-O the first thing I see is one of the actors Alex O'Loughin. He has been in what is it now his 3rd television series and NONE of the ones before have taken off (one a vampire story and the other a doctor or hospital). Maybee this one will stick, though I highly doubt it. He must be under contract with somebody because he is consantly on the tube. The show he's on gets canned and here he is back again. The network must love this guy and are determined to find a place for him. Why not try a soap opera. CBS is down to 2 now (Y&R and B&B). It's not like people don't know his face.

FaceBook Virus

I use to go on Face Book. I enjoyed catching up with friends that I had not seen in a while. I had a habit of going on several times a day, that has all changed. My computer caught a virus. And it came from face book, before you say anything the answer is yes I did have a virus protector, but the man who had to fix my computer told me that the viruses are coming out so fast the virus protectors can't keep up. I am really going to miss it, especially the part where I would get spoilers of the soap opera I watch every day. Oh well, I guess it will have to be a surprise.

reality stars :(

The one thing that really gets me ill is these so called reality stars what don't do anything. Look at the woman that has 8 kids that jon and kate plus 8. From day one I was waiting for them to split. The way that that woman would treat that poor man. I'm sorry but if you have a husband you don't treat him like an animal at the zoo or like your child. All I can say is the jon is better off. I really do feel sorry for the man that kate will finally settle on (probably her body guard). After all he is married she already destroyed her own marriage why not destroy his as well.
