57 Channels and Only This Is On vol. CLX


The Walking Dead: Finally the grenade gets reintroduced, but that was the first time in the history of grenades where I was someone go with the “pull and drop” method of detonation as opposed to more traditional “pull and throw” technique. And the herd gets thinned even more with the black chick deciding to stay. Was she related to the black dude? I do not remember them mentioning any type of relationship before, but he said a term of endearment before leaving. If they were, he seemed more than eager to leave her behind. And now that they are out, where to now? It can’t be safe to go back to their old camp, they can’t make too far with the little amount of gas they must have left. Is the old folks home too obvious? Should make for an interesting second season. Hopefully it moves faster than the first. You can download The Walking Dead on iTunes.

How I Met Your Mother: How an episode with so many great one-liner (eye broccoli, the Mermaid theory) feel so bland. All three storylines fell flat to the point of I don’t even want to bother rank them because that would mean having to relive the episode. Yawn. You can stream recent episodes over at cbs.com. You can also download How I Met Your Mother on iTunes.

Glory Daze: You really cannot go wrong by bringing in Carl Winslow for a guest stint, but throw in Booger, Dexter’s Dad, the mayor from Spin City and DL Hughley playing the father of a white dude and you have an awesome hour of television. I hope they have Father’s weekend one a month at this college. You can stream recent episodes over at TBS.com.

Survivor: Nicaragua: Just when you think this season cannot get any more disappointing, they announced we still have two more episodes to sit through. I would have guessed we were down to the final by now. I guess this season just feels longer. I can’t pontificate on any more on this episode, because I do not care enough to think more about it. You can stream recent episodes over at cbs.com.

Modern Family: Odd, no Thanksgiving or Christmas episode this year when last years were some of their best episode. Seriously, bring back a drunken Shelly Long and that episode writes its self and would definitely have been better than this episode. You can stream recent episodes on Hulu.

The Challenge: Cutthroat: The Challenge isn’t one of those show that you really remember once the season ends, so this may be a little hyperbole, but CT carrying Johnny Bananas like a backpack, them slamming him into the barrel when he could have easily just kicked it over was the greatest moment ever in the history of The Challenge. Unfortunately they only made Tyler go the seventeen seconds it took CT to waltz Johnny over to the barrel, if you are going to fly CT all the way to Romania, let him through another contestant into a barrel. You can stream recent episodes on MTV.com. You can also download The Challenge: Cutthroat on iTunes.

The Big Bang Theory: I am still over Blossom. It is time to get her off the show. You can stream recent episodes over at cbs.com.

Community: I guess this episode was entertaining as a Christmas special, but like the Christmas stop motion specials it was paying tribute to, it is not very good compared to non-holiday fair. And they should have brought in an actual songwriter to write the songs because the ones in the episodes sounded like they were written by television writer. You can stream current episodes on Hulu. You can also download Community on iTunes.
