What Shows Are You Watching?

[MonkFan4Life]

I'm starting to get a little pissed with The Event as well. I mean they are aliens and I'm supposed to just watch the back and forth with nothing popping off ? I'm sticking with it because I have some time while at work. It kills a little under an hour for me so hey, you take the L.

Has anyone seen Bradley Coopers new show Kitchen Confidential ?

Same here. It's gotten a little slow the past couple of weeks. I'm all done with the flashbacks because they aren't adding ANYTHING to the story.

The previews for next week didn't give me a lot of hope. The show had a lot of promise, but man, it's slowing down so much.

Yea, it's a good show but it's one of those shows that I don't know how much time I'm going to have to devote? I'm I going to have to watch for 5 seasons just to know what's going on?

I like for my shows to at least progress forward and give at least some assemblence of closure occasionally.

Anyone see 30 for 30 about Tim Richmond this week. Very good show. I've heard of the guy, but never knew anything about him. Great driver who like to party (who didn't in their twenties) too much i guess. Drove alot like Dale Sr I guess. Brought back alot of memories about the AIDS scare of the 80's. It's amazing how little info we had back then.

I'm putting two and two together and although they didn't say it, I guess some of Days of Thunder were based on Tim Richmond? Not all, but some similarities.

Anyone else see it?

Yes, I thought it was an excellent documentary on the late driver that died young at age 34 of AIDS. I fondly remember watching him drive back in the early-mid 80's and he was second only to Earnhardt Sr. in terms of brashness. Richmond was not the typical "good 'ol boy" from the south, which caused some friction behind the scenes. But, he added some additional excitement to the sport with his flashy personality and made no apologies for being the lady's man (which unfortunately cost him his life). The dude could wheel a race car too and was not afraid to put a bumper on big bad Dale Sr. Miss personalities like that in NASCAR very much. It used to be fun to watch but has now become controlled way too much by corp. America.

Yea, I used to watch Nascar a good bit. Since Dale Sr died and w/ the commericalization of racing I can't find the interest or time in it. For god's sake, I've recently wondered why they need 2 hours of prerace talk when the race is 4 hours? WTF? Anyway, just can't get into it like I used to and maybe it's due to the lack of personalities.

Yeah I was praying for them to start executing the aliens but noooooooooooo it was all a bunch of talk. JUST when things looked up. Well at least I have Fringe.

Anyone watching the show Outsourced?

[MTK]

I've tried watching Outsourced a few times, honestly I think it really blows. I get about 10 minutes in and I'm bored to tears. I wish they would bring back Parks & Recreation already.

Where's Ron Swanson when you need him

I don't mind Outsourced but I don't love it and I'd much rather be watching Parks and Rec because I loved the last season. Ron Swanson is quickly becoming my role model. Like Ron I too love dark haired women and breakfast foods.

The first episode was meh...the last episode had me cracking.
