    24 -- Season 7

    A doctor's office is more likely to have an EW from March 07 than this week's EW...

    The Amazing Race: Season 14

    Sorry. But hey, now you can substitute "Fazzle" for "Luke" in the fantasies...

    Luke is gay. Maybe he didn't realize that Nick was in the previous Race.

    24 -- Season 7

    I think that in most cases the producers like an actor enough from their smaller role to cast them when a major role comes along. For instance Diane Neal played a different character on Law&Order SVU before becoming Casey Novak. That's not really laziness in my book. To me, laziness is when you need an Asian guy for a generic guest role and you hire James Hong. You know, this guy:

    The Amazing Race: Season 14

    I would have to put the sibs up at the top of the list because their Cho moment seems to be an exception, not the rule.

    That was my theory too. Wonder why no one on the show thought of it. Also, second straight week without Hiro and Ando. The hell is going on with time devoted to the characters lately? How much time did you need devoted to seeing Ando slap Hiro for being an idiot? Micah makes sense, but would he have the maturity necessary to coordinate all of this?

    American Idol Season 8

    Are you talking about McIntyre or Taylor Hicks?

    Heroes

    Yeah, I do. She's not interesting at all and honestly gets way too much time devoted to her by the show. Yessum, she's becoming Heroes Lana Lang. She's insanely hot, but I don't care at all what happens to her character. Every time she TAKES A STAND I just cringe, she's just annoying To be fair, Lana Lang was never interesting. I'm talking the Superman mythos in general here, not just Smallville (which is what I assume you're talking about - I don't watch the show).

    American Idol Season 8

    Hey, as long as he can hold up the singing end of things, I'm all for the guy winning. Otherwise, you're looking at a Josh Blue/Eddie from BB1 situation where the guy wins simply because he's handicapped. Anyway, Jorge "El Unibrow" Nunez was clearly the #3 guy on Tuesday so it's good that he made it. Not a big fan of Emo Boy, but he's got the chops to make me change my mind about him. Sarver will finish 10th and make the tour. Probably Whatshisname and a Wild Card will go before him. Or possibly Alison since I think she really needs to bring it every week to earn votes. Lil Rounds will earn the Jennifer Hudson "voted out too early" award for Season 8. Probably in favour of Alexis who is looking to be the only white chick in this competition (AleKKKxis?). Wild Card has a few "who?" people, and a few that clearly the judges want to succeed and are likely to put through because they want to. Jasmine Murray will continue the trend of 16-year olds choosing a bad song but still make it through because commercial commercial commercial. It helps prove that Archie's dad was a fucking genius for picking most of his songs instead of letting Archie do it. Tatiana The Bull will go through because crazy crying chick who doesn't shut up = ratings. And website hits for VFTW. Anoop probably goes through and I hope that he gets enough votes to keep going for a while. Or not, because then I can break out the "America hates Asians" comment. I'll give Matt Giraud and Hippychick an outside shot, but I think that these are the three moving on. As an aside I hate Hippychick and that fucking annoying wiggle thing she does when singing. The rest... well, I have no idea why Von and the other guy are here while Ju'Not sits on the sidelines. Also Kristin the Jaime Presley lookalike would've been a better choice over the redhead - I'm actually guessing that that was the last minute swap. But whatever. They needed some jobbers, I guess.

    Well, they did need to spell it out for Freckles seeing as she saw all the other stuff and still didn't get it...

    Probably pre-paid for by the Company? Does anyone wish they would just get rid of Claire at this point?

    Jack with the RNC on Buchanan! The question is, if Bill wasn't tied up, would he have tapped?

    The Amazing Race: Season 14

    Yay, Team Rainbow, I guess. I enjoyed Victor's breakdown, to be honest. Probably has to do with his being too stubborn to realize that he might, you know, be wrong.

    I'm pretty sure that Jack had an orgasm after the "If you ever pull a weapon on me you better intend to use it" "I did" exchange...

    Heroes

    Because this show has continuity errors and does the easy things out of convenience. Yeah, they need to figure that one out. Retcon it, I don't care, just fix it. Make it so that Peter's acquires powers by skin-to-skin contact, like Rogue. I'm actually OK if they just key on less people each ep. Even if it is the Idiot Triplets, because it seems to give more focus to an episode.

    The Amazing Race: Season 14

    I dunno about that. I mean, there's a language barrier to begin with, and having your mom talk to pretty girls for you is, frankly, somewhat pathetic. Did Dallas get his mom to talk to Starr first? Probably not. Speaking of Dallas, Amanda and Chris (v2) seem to have lost their Amazing Fanny Pack. It couldn't happen two seasons in a row, could it?

    The Amazing Race: Season 14

    I'm impressed that Steve did not yell at Linda since she fully expected it. They do seem like good people. Nice to see that Team Rainbow didn't get screwed over by too much wind, and finished the task more or less in the same position they came in at. Flight attendants are showing that being on a flight and booking a flight are different things. Or maybe not. I really wasn't paying attention to them, although the rollaboards instead of backpacks? Priceless. I am not a fan of Team Momma's Boy. My wife and I were having a discussion about it, and we figured that the only reasons a deaf person couldn't lip read was either because they are slow or lazy. We went with lazy. Team Bigteeth are continuing the streak of sibling teams finishing high up the ladder (like Starr and... um, well, it doesn't matter, does it?). Hopefully they don't slip up and get eliminated. Enquiring minds need to know - true redheads or not? Finally, Phil is fricking SIGNING for Momma's Boy. Someone is pissed that they didn't get nominated for best reality host Emmy...

    The Upcoming Shows/Rumored Fights Thread

    Now that they've reached three-digits in the "major" events, shouldn't the UFC start trying to simply brand these things a la WWE? You know, like the December one could be "Ultimate 20xx", Super Bowl weekend could be "Super Saturday", UK events could be "Yeah, this one will suck" etc.

    UFC 97: Redemption

    Question regarding this whole Montreal UFC thing: What the fuck has the Quebec commission been doing this entire time when Patry's been running TKO and Loiseau has that other promotion going on?
  20. He's bordering on slander with his latest rant about GSP using steroids. I say bordering because he's saying "a friend of a friend" and making an accusation without actually coming right out and saying it. Honestly, I'd say that BJ has lost it except that he's still going right up to that line and not crossing it (as he always does), which indicates some level of sanity.

    Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2

    If it makes anyone feel better, former Marvel guy Evan Skolnick is editorial director at Vicarious Visions, and he's got a hand in the writing. Which probably means that the New Warriors aren't the catalyst for the Civil War (Skolnick being the writer for the last third of New Warriors v1), but I digress.

    Marvel Ultimate Alliance 2

    It's basically the same engine they used in X-Men Legends so if you've played either of those you should be able to pick things up rather quickly. Since the kid I can't spend a whole lot of time buying or playing video games but believe me this is one game I'm looking to pick up.
  23. Hey, they made Tito/Shamrock III when there was really no need for it. Why not Penn/St. Pierre III for free on Spike (and Rogers Sportsnet in Canada)? Nothing like seeing a live homicide on free TV...
  24. Those gifs could make a case for or against. You can see the legs moving up and down, but at the same time GSP is still working and the movement alone could cause the leg slip. The last one, to be honest, looks like BJ was trying to grab his leg with his right hand but couldn't free it up.
  25. - Matt Hughes Translation: "I'm not saying that GSP was cheating, but he was cheating. Matt Serra said so." What a douche.
