Don Ho

Excellent Madmen last night. Ted McGinley looking all 60's.

If you have 6 hours to kill The 80's: The Decade that made us on Nat Geo is a great time waster. They cover everything from politics to sports to music to cultural integration.



It's in my DVR.  I watched the 1st 2 episodes of it last night.  Pretty good shtein.  Love how they gave a pretty large segment to hiphop and RUN-DMC.  They could have gone without the "reenactments" though.  Either show actual footage, related footage or just show someone talking.

HBO has renewed the Baltimore area-shot, DC-set sitcom "VEEP" for a third season, starting in 2014. The comedy, starring Julia Louis-Dreyfus as a scatterbrained vice president, recently started airing second season episodes on the premium network.

IGY are you watching Bourdain's Parts Unknown?  Finally caught an episode tonight, Colombia.  It's basically "No Reservations".  Guess I thought it was going to have a different twist to it.  I enjoyed it but just surprised it was the same format.

i saw the myanmar one and forgot to put it on my dvr so i missed the second one (panama i think) which they repeat this sunday before canada...but yes i am/will be watching it

it was no secret that it was going to be the same show....the reason for going to cnn was that they can get access to countries that travel channel couldnt...so youll see episodes like myanmar which never would have happened prior to the move to cnn

Saw this episode.  I watch the show quite a bit, though not every week, but I've really started to get sick of it.  Ted is probably the worst character in TV history.  No dude, gay or straight, should be as obsessed with getting married as that dude.  The fact that they managed to do an entire episode without him whining about being single was a major win all by itself.  But yeah, the ending to this episode was pretty awesome.  Predictable, but still funny.

I've tried more than once to watch that show (the girls love it in my house) and I've yet to crack even a single smile while watching it, let alone laugh.

Hideous characters, poor writing and lame recycled sitcom predictability = pure awfulness.

Squaw loves it too, which is why I see it as much as I do.  I don't hate it, but yeah, sometimes it's downright terrible.  Other times it gets a few legit lols out of me.  The ogre dude from Saving Sarah Marshall and the band whore from American Pie are usually the ones I laugh at most.  Doogie Howser's schtick got real old, real quick and the other chick is about as sexy as a hangnail.  It tries really hard to be smart and most of the time is falls flat on its face.  Network sitcoms are about as bad as it gets outside of Modern Family.

Takes place in NYC.
Has some really annoying characters.
No black people. 

Striking similarities.

That's half the shows ever made, really.

The man. The myth. The legend.
