I'm back!

Hey I'm back, haven't really checked in for a while. Still see I'm on Level 30. No surprises there!

Here in Australia there has been a lack of quality shows on - theres been a lot of sport on instead. (tennis, cricket) Not that I don't mind that, I just want to see some good quality TV shows!

I heard good things about Heroes, and since I'm not a patient person when it comes to TV shows I thought I'd check it out early (if you know what I mean)

I've seen 8 episodes and I gotta say "DAMN THIS IS A GOOD SHOW!!!" It has me well and truly hooked! I'm sure a lot of Americans will back me up here - it is definately the show to see!

Fav Hero- Hiro Nakamura (Masi Oka), He's the guy who plays played Franklin on Scrubs for a few episodes, but as Hiro he is absolutely brillant. Whenever he is on screen you can't help but smile!

Catcha later

Australia/USA - Jericho

I love it!

Not only do I find Jericho a really entertaining show, but we get it only a matter of hours after the US.

Can't recall this ever being done before. Probably to stop downloads!

Anyway haven't blogged for a while! - Too much work! - Also the Simpsons forum (the one I used to go to the most) has been overrun by games and the same old questions and debates on whether or not the show is going downhill.

Feels like I've been on Level 30 for a few months! I guess it helps if you contribute!

RIP Steve Irwin

Australia lost one of its biggest icons today.

The Crocodile Hunter died while filming a doco. A stingray's barb pierced through his chest.

Strange that it was a stingray. They are usually pretty passive, and attack when they feel threatened.

I always thought he was a bit of a tool, but I understand why so many loved him.

Back to normal sleeping Hours...

Now that the World Cup is over. Heres a few of my thoughts

A Great World Cup - I enjoyed it thoroughly with a couple of exceptions.

Well done socceroos - you've done us proud.

Zinedine Zidane - What were you thinking? - The headbutt

There should be a lot of referees out of a job now......Well I wish that was the case.

Germany seemed like deserving winner, played entertaining football throughout.

I'd like to see the Italian league collapse now because of the bribery allegations. (I guess thats sorta sour grapes!)

Argentina's Maxi Rodriguez with goal of the tournament.

Brazil, England, Spain and the Czechs as the biggest disappointments.

Ghana and Australia the surprises

Wayne Rooney needs anger management!

Having Rooney and Ronaldo at Man U together can only be bad for the club.

The Italian Grosso - REALLY HATE THE GUY but he deserves an Academy award though!

The list of divers is too long to name everyone!

Glad to see England choke - (Come on - I'm an Australian!)

Italy vs France - battle of the divers!


Forget that last blog

I just saw Thierry Henry dived to win France that penalty.

Neither team deserves to be in the final! - Germany vs Portugal sounds better!......Australia vs anyone sounds brilliant!!!!

I love this sport...I love it a lot, but there has to be a way of taking diving out of the game!

Maybe video ref decisions??? I dunno, but matches cannot continue to be decided by a DIVE!!!!

The Chaser's War on Everything
Avg Score: 8.47    Total Ratings: 218    Total Reviews: 23
These guys are really pushing the boundries with this show.

Whether their testing out crazy commercials, taking the piss out of current affair shows, or following politician or celebrities you can't help but laugh at the antics of the Chaser Boys!

Chas has to be the most out there. He seems to be willing to push everything to the limit (and then go past it) Hes shown up everywhere at the logies and sold fake weapons at a Bulldogs game. (The supporters have a history of violence)

Most importantly none of these guys have that little voice inside their head trying to convince them not to do these sorts of things.

Thank God for that!

Thank God You're Here (2006)
Avg Score: 8.72    Total Ratings: 192    Total Reviews: 13
To be a good comedian you have to be abole to think fast, Thank God Your Here puts people in extrodinary situations where the comedian is supposed to act his or her way out of it.

Its like not matter how many obstacles come up during the scene they have to try and find a way to get past them.

What I really love about this show is that you find out which comedians are chumps and which are champs. There is no script so anything could happen.

Hard to have a favourite person on the show, usually the regulars make me laugh the most, like Angus Sampson, Josh Lawson and Frank Woodley.

Its great to see something fresh and original come out from Australia. We are used to terrible skit shows and boring predictable jokes.

Thank God Your Here is a pleasant change!

When a show has gone on as long as Scrubs has, a clip show isn't asuch a bad thing. I enjoyed looking back at all the different moments that the show has provided us over the years.

No one will ever rank this one among their favourite Scrubs episodes, but there were a lot of everyones favourite moments in it.

Some say a clip show is a sign of a show on the decline, but that is a totally separate issue. Scrubs episodes are as good as they have ever been.

I say this about the Simpsons and I'll say it about Scrubs. New Scrubs episodes are better than no Scrubs at all. When shows like this one finally go off the air, you'll realize just how good it was.

Heroes
Avg Score: 9.31    Total Ratings: 26889    Total Reviews: 1218
I have seen 8 episodes of Heroes and I have falled in love with it!

Never been a huge fan of super hero/comics - that sort of thing. But immediately I have become hooked with this show.

So many characters, so many complex storylines, (I find it hard to keep track of) yet it is simply compelling viewing.

Hard to pick a favourite character, if I had to it would be Peter Petrelli who it seems might have a bit of everyone elses super powers. But then again every time Hiro is on screen I can't stop smiling. His character is incredibly entertaining.

I used to really love Lost, but the problem I had with it was and the end of an episode I sit back and say to myself. "Hey nothing really happened" Now I just think "Screw Lost!, Heroes is the way to go". I feel that a certain amount of progress through the plots is made each and every episode.

At the end of the show I felt I have learnt something new and significant yet I am left wanting more and more.

Can't get enough of this show right now! Hope it carries on producing fantastic episodes!

The Wedge
Avg Score: 5.52    Total Ratings: 49    Total Reviews: 15

For a show I had reasonable expectaations for I ended up badly disapponted. The are a lot of bad sketch shows out there, but The Wedge might take the cake as the worst.

Australia used to have some real top quality sketch shows int the 90's and while I am not a fan of Comedy Inc or Skithouse they look like comic genius compared to this.

Many of the characters are one joke wonders (They get really boring - really quickly) and even that joke is bad!

Some characters
- The Apologising Sports guy: Title says it all, there is only so far you can take that joke.
- Pokie women: Just plain annoying, their sound effects are not at all funny.
- The Farmer: All those "jokes" with flies surrounding him are tiresome!

How is it still on? Dunno guess their are loyal fans out there. Personally I can't think of a positive thing to say about the show. Hence the really low score!
