TV: June 2008 Archives

Well, I finally watched episode 12 of the current Dr. Who season. Looks to be the first half of a two part season ender.  They did a great job of bringing all of the cast together.  The Doctor's companions: Rose, Martha, Sarah Jane Smith & Donna Noble. They also brought in Torchwood & The Sarah Jane Adventures. medina download

I had no idea going into this episode that we were in for a new Doctor.  Wow, what a surprise.medina download

It will be hard to waiti until next week.  I can only assume they will finally destroy the Daleks for good. medina download

Well, it is down to two Chefs left on Hell's Kitchen. (the term is used very loosely) Christina & Petrozza  I really do feel bad for Chef Ramsay, having to pick from these two.  At least Christina seems to have some talent and a knack for the whole thing.  So did Jen, but Jen was/is a real biatch.  I thought it would be Corey and Christina at the end.  I think Ramsay is hoping for Christina.  Petrozza seems to be a real flake, he has the most experience, but not anything like running a top end restaurant.
Ramsay might be an ass, but you can't argue with his talent, results or success.

Hell's KitchenWhat is it with this show this year?  I was very surprised that all of them were smokers.  You would think that being a chef, the last thing you would want to do is something the changes your sense of smell and taste.  Anyhow, I am not really impressed with any of the contestants this season.  No one really jumped out at me as the one. medina download

I feel bad for Chef, because he will be stuck with one of these yahoos for at least 1 year.  Watching this show makes me really glad I did not go into cooking like I once thought I would.  I have heard horror stories from peopl I know that went into it.  It is a tremendous amount of work before you can even think of relaxing.medina download

I recently watched the pilot for a new show called The Middleman.  It was one of the few show I have watched recently that has made me lough out loud (lol for you geeks).The cast looked famliar, but I am not sure why. The female lead is funny & attractive. The show is based on a comic book series. I recomend getting your comics here.  It was a little rough as far as production value goes, but I would watch a few episodes. It looks like a keeper to me, but thye have cancelled many a good show. Firefly & Arrested Development for example.

It looks like comics are really starting to make a big come back. With all of the TV shows and movies based on comics, there could be good times ahead. Not that basing a TV show or movie on a comic or book is any kind of guarantee of goodness.  Look at Battlefield Earth. Wow that was bad.
