We Have Confirmation!

Chet said it earlier this week and now we have confirmation, Community has been named the best show of 2010 by multiple sources. However, I do have one question for both lists, where the hell is Friday Night Lights?

MUSIC/TV: New Stuff

After a handful of new Conan episodes, it is safe to say he is back to old form. However, this TSA guard made me cry of laughter when he said “mmm,
now give it back.” Great stuff. I’ve also decided to include a new song, courtesy of an ad from Mozilla Seabird’s concept phone - which is pretty freaking cool if it ever gets made. Anyway, have a great one and enjoy the clip and music!

100th Post! (Updated)

I just noticed on the old dashboard that this is the 100th post! I should save it for Chet to write something special but who knows when he's going to post again? With the Chiefs being 3-0 he's probably busy thrusting a field goal post somewhere. Anyway, since we haven't posted since Monday here are some more TV thoughts, a quick game of Where's Chet?, and a new Conan promo.

TV Thoughts
I have ended my relationship with The League and Glee. Both season passes have been deleted from the DVR. The League is trying way too hard to be funny and Glee is boring. I have no plans to replace them with anything.

Where's Chet?
1. Getting signatures so he can run for mayor of Chicago
2. Eating a meatball sub at the Subway across the street from his place
3. Riding around on an ATV running over Colts mascots
4. The meatball sub didn't fill him up so he's having a snack. Maybe a muffin and a Coke?

TV Review

Chad's post earlier in the week has inspired me to give my own review of NEW TV shows that I have watched this week. Ready? Here we go.

Running Wilde
I watched about 10 minutes then went looking for the performance plan on my TV. It's making weird noises when the volume is up too high.

Undercovers
10 minutes into the show the Mrs. and I made fun of the two main characters running and laughing during a scene and deleted it from the DVR.

Lone Star
This show kept our attention because we found a lot of similarities to Friday Night Lights.

Boardwalk Empire
Haven't watched it yet.

That's all. Tonight's lineup includes a lot of old favorites so there is no room for new shows. TV!

Good Old Fashioned Leno Bashing

I don't think I'll ever get tired of watching David Letterman make fun of Jay Leno.

Introducing a New Bit

I've decided to add another bit to my rotating themes. So far I've given you: W Wednesdays, Quote of the Day, Stumble Upon of the Day, From the Mrs., and Song of the Afternoon.

Today I introduce...

Matthew Moment Mondays! Enjoy! (Hopefully there are enough videos on youtube to keep this up)

I should also mention that the Reelz Channel is showing back to back episodes every week. Set your DVRs.

Cue the Charlie Brown Music

I had plans yesterday to get up and take care of a few things that needed to be done. Instead, I watched 3 hours of Arrested Development on IFC. It was a Sunday Fun Day indeed. The Mrs. seemed to enjoy it too, the next step will be introducing her to all three seasons I have on DVD.

Stumble Upon of the Day

I recently discovered a website called stumbleupon that randomly takes to websites based on your interests. I was thrilled today when I came across an image of Charlie's lyrics to Day Man from It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia.

Speaking of Good Television

Since "The Decision" isn't on every night - and I wish it was - I have to watch something else tonight. Luckily, it is Thursday. Out of the four NBC comedies tonight (Community, Parks and Rec, Office, 30 Rock) what do you watch first on your DVR? I know this is tough but just like going to South Beach, it must be done. Community and Ron Swanson's Parks and Rec take home first dips. Also, did you know that if you mash-up all of CBS's comedies (rules of engagement, how I met your mother, big bang theory, two and a half men) you get the title "Rules of How I Bang Two and Half Men." That sounds brutal in every sense of the meaning (double entendre included). What you watching?

Enjoy!

Rizzoli and Isles are The Event

I could of told you that prior to you wasting five minutes of your life. I think Donnie is happy to be working because the only thing people remember from "The Sixth Sense" is the ending, not his performance, and he is still bitter. However, I think we possibly might have two more drinking games to go along with the brilliant Dallas game you invented and we enjoy to this day. How many times they say 'Rizzoli' in the show, or how many times people say 'the event' in NBC's new show The Event , we take a drink. (We'd have to get more Bacardi Dragon Berry though for sure.) Clearly, we'd have to watch both shows and neither show sports a shirtless Patrick Duffy like Dallas. And try as he might, but Blair Underwood is no Patrick Duffy. It being late I'll add a night-time song. Nothing too rocking.
