    Ya, Crack will do that do you..

    And I quit 'Survivor' years ago when I realized that they were always going to be fed and didn't actually have to 'Survive'. Now it just looks like a Budweiser Beach Party without the hot chicks.

    Which reminds me: Tell Mark Burnett that I'll watch it again when they start showing hot partying Bud chicks...

    Criminal Minds: The Quest for Mandy's Replacement

    by stormwatcher

    I am sure he'll be killed off camera. Never watched the show but anything that puts a .45 on a geeky character will never get my time. (I have scanned this and CSIMIAMI) and both times I saw losers brandishing big ass silver guns in public. REtarted

    by shogunmaster

    Does anyone really see anything potential in this pile of crap? Is there a single episode of anything in that list that has even perked an iota of interest in anyone at all?

    I can't tell you how much reading I plan on catching up on during this next big t.v. season..

    "Damages" looks tired and threadbare. FX is trying to hard to be "edgy"; it's the same trap HBO's fallen into as of late.

    Survivor: China adds a new twist

    by guy gaduois

    The 'Tank Dodge' and Chinese Firing squads have added a new twist - the Tank commanders and Firing squad team leaders will have special access to GoogleEarth, this way, Google will be able to sell out Chinese AND American citizens to the Chinese government. Google redefines 'do no evil' because, "It's just a gaaaaame". I wonder if the contestants will have to sneak into North Korea wearing dog costumes at any point?

    by ninja nerd

    This is NOT a great show, but odd enough that I like it and put it on the DVR schedule. I almost never watch it "live", but I've kept up with it. Glad it didn't get cancelled. Of all things CBS, How I Met Your Mother is the best thing they've got. I did join the masses in "saving" Jericho on the strength of the last 6 episodes.
