- Taco - Taco's performance of "My Negenta" at Dr. Andre's whites only party was only slightly less stellar than when he rides his Vespa while flailing said negenta.
- Shrimp and Grits at Zelko Bistro - Went to Zelko again last week. Fried pickles followed by shrimp and grits. If you haven't tried this place. Get there.
- Bored to Death - The season 2 premier was OK at best. The second episode on the other hand had more laugh out loud moments that "East Bound & Down." If you didn't see the first season, don't worry, you can pick up right here and be fine.
- Into the Wind -Very touching, well presented 30 for 30 documentary on Terry Fox. Honestly, I started feeling a little guilty for all the comedy mileage I used to get out of the Terry Fox imitation back in the neighborhood.
- Pac10 football - I have no issues with saying Oregon is the second best team in the nation. I feel even stronger that the Pac10 is the best conference. Alabama is far and away the best team but from top to bottom the competition is better in the Pac10 than the SEC. Part of that has to do with.....
- Les Miles - Really? I just have to assume Les stumbled across a very powerful Voodoo witch doctor his first season in Louisiana and is milking him for all he's worth. With the revival of Mickey Rourke's career, I smell an Angel Heart sequel in the works.
- Charmin Mega Roll - I've been to a couple different stores and can't find my beloved Mega Roll. I can't possibly go back to using those tiny "Big" rolls again after years in Mega paradise.
- OU tranny cheerleaders - Wow. Just in case you missed this brute, here "she" is for your viewing pleasure. BTW, if you are The University of Oklahoma, why do you call yourselves OU?
- The Office - Just quit already.
- Network television patience - Lone Star gets two episodes to build an audience. Really? Hell Cavemen got six. What is the point of putting a show on if you would consider pulling it after only two episodes? You obviously thought the pilot was good enough to build a series around. Not to mention the millions you spent on promotion. If you had something that much better to run in it's place, I think you would have had it on the schedule in the first place.
I was worried that, The League might become a bit one note after awhile but after a few stumbles (NFL cameos, too much fantasy talk) it seems to be back on track. It needs to be more about a bunch of idiots stumbling through life because that's what we all are at heart. Taco is gold!
ReplyDeleteI completely agree. I was over the cameos about 5 seconds into the season premiere. No one needs Ruxin turning in to Arliss. At least we don't have to worry about getting too much fantasy talk from Ravi.
ReplyDeleteBored To Death is so freakin' inconsistent. Any combination of Oliver Platt, Ted Danson, Zach G. and pot in a scene is gold.
ReplyDeleteThis week was definitely one of the best of the series. Smoking pot with a corn cob pipe because it gets you higher and makes you look like a sea captain was nails.
