LOST Tonight

LOST starts again tonight. I think I speak for Bros11 as a whole when I say I am pretty excited. I am so excited in fact that I actually kicked my dog in the balls this morning....AND I DON'T EVEN HAVE A DOG!!!!! I actually changed my facebook status today to read something along the lines of: I'm Jessie-Spano-on-diet-pills excited about Lost tonight.

I made the mistake of watching the first four minutes on-line....some ABC promo. It honestly felt like cheating on a diet or stealing money from your mom...just cheap and dirty. I also think that the first four minutes video was a total red herring, I will explain whether or not I was right after watching tonight's action.

That said, I encourage all non-believers to head over to hulu.com or watch the episodes on-line via Netflix. It's a pretty righteous show.

Happy Islanding

How did this happen?

I just spent the better part of an hour wondering how I got to this point. There is really no reasonable explanation...nothing anyone can say to make sense of the fact...nothing that can ever be offered as proof that this is anything but a tremendous lapse in character. I just watched an entire hour episode of Hell's Kitchen.

Not only that, but I have yet to miss an episode of Hell's Kitchen this year. I know every "chef's" name. I know where they are from and what their deal is. I have some that I prefer and others that I hate. Despite all these facts I absolutely hate this show.

The fact that I have mastered the art of the DVR so that I can watch both a half hour of South Park and an hour of Top Chef on Wednesday nights speaks to my usually discerning television taste and devotion to staying up on the shows that really matter. Yet somehow, from 9-10 every Tuesday, I tune in to the shit-a-thon that is this awful television show. Gordon Ramsey is a douche, plain and simple. He gets these ridiculously under-prepared and underqualified line cooks to come in and play chef while he belittles their efforts and reads orders off like the Micro Machines guy. It's absurd...and it is terrible TV. I need to take off my shoes and unzip my pants to count the ridiculously unnecessary dramatic cliffhangers surrounding each and every commercial break.

Still, I hate myself...I can't stop watching.
