Okay You BG Nerds

I have just finished season one and I am now working through the second, but I keep coming back to the same question. Why in the hell do they have one doctor but 30 reporters? I mean come on, fire some of the reporters and retrain them. That doctor is old and his knowledge will be dieing with him.

Plus I always think it is weird when they waste things like glasses or bottles. That stuff is going top run out if they do not look after them.

Timewasting Television Tidbits

If you are a user of Hulu than I have great news for you. They have loaded up season one of Green Wing, an hour long comedy show about an English hospital. Imagine Scrubs on steroids, with the humour a lot more dry, and the language a little more raw. A very funny show overall starring several great English actors including Sarah Alexander from Coupling (brilliant show) and the original Worst Week of My Life.

Be forewarned, while this scene is HILARIOUS, you more sensitive types should know that there is one use of profanity.


I also learned yesterday that ABC has all five seasons of Lost on-line for free viewing. I have never really watched the show because I got behind early in Season 1 and gave up. I was waiting for someone to buy them – like Wayne – and then I would just borrow them. That is how we saw all of the Gilmore Girls.

And for my fellow lovers of Swedish crime fiction I see PBS is going to show several Masterpieces using Henning Mankell’s books, starring Kenneth Branagh as Detective Wallander. The first one airs this Sunday May 10th.

I am so right

I have never really watched Dancing with the Stars, but occasionally Tivo records it. Cenny likes it so I watch the episode with her, a good Daddy daughter activity. Anyways, given that introduction, I saw the list of new contestants today

--Access Hollywood’s Nancy O’Dell

--Rapper Lil’ Kim

--Former New York Giants linebacker Lawrence Taylor

--“Jackass” wild man Steve-O

--Actress and reality show star Denise Richards

--Olympic gold medalist Shawn Johnson

--Singer Jewel

--Rodeo star Ty Murray (who is also Jewel’s husband)

--Actor and comedian David Alan Grier

--“Sex and The City” guy candy Gilles Marini

--Country singer Chuck Wicks (who is also Julianne Hough’s boyfriend)

--Former Go-Go’s singer Belinda Carlisle

--Apple Computer co-founder Steve Wozniak

I am predicting right now the winner – David Alan Grier – and here is why
He is not afraid of looking silly

He is capable of swishing the hips

He is a nice guy that can win over the audience.

Who do you see winning just based on the names alone?
