TV
10 years can really change a guy. Just ask Dexter.
Remember watching Dexter’s Laboratory in the 90′s? Well watching Dexter now is just not the same. He’s all grown up, has a new job and might be a little crazy. His sister is still annoying though.
America’s actually got some talent.
We’ve been watching America’s got talent and some acts are not very good. Others the judges think are good, but their just not Vegas quality.
Then there are some great ones like the Silhouettes audition, that are creative and very talented.
And, if you’re going to go on TV, you must have big dreams.
The Kinetic King, from Minneapolis, has some great ideas for what he’d do if he won America’s Got Talent.
And don’t worry, he practices safe sticks. That’s why he’s got himself protected.
Glee knows where the money is; merchandising.
What’s the key to success in the entertainment industry?
Merchandising
Fox’s Glee has to be one of the smartest shows on TV when it comes to merchandising.
Now I’m not talking about t-shirts and DVDs, Glee is killing the competition with music.
Every week the Glee cast releases a few songs and every week, they skyrocket to the top of iTunes. When the Glee kids went to regionals, they dominated iTunes the very next day.
In the first season alone Glee sold 12.9 million digital tracks with another 3.6 million in album sales. That helped them reach #28 on Billboard Music’s Top 40 Money Makers. [source]
I might actually buy a KIA if it wasn’t for this commercial.
Now that we’re looking for a new car, we’re looking at all sorts of cars from the Ford Fusion to the Toyota Camry.
Last night during Nikita, they had a lot of commercials for the 2011 Kia Optima and it looks like a really nice car.
However, KIAs are not high on our list thanks to this commercial by the local KIA dealership. It makes me think that I’m buying from some shady used car salesman. If this is how they advertise their company, I see no reason to shop there.
You were right, The Office is good.
The Office Team
This one goes out to all my friends who constantly talk about The Office and how good of a show it is. You were right, I was wrong.
Christi and I have tried watching The Office in the past and just found it stupid. We couldn’t stand to watch it.
Then we started catching re-runs. A few shows here or there because there was nothing better on. Then we kinda got hooked.
Turns out, you can stream all seasons to Netflix on Wii so it was extremely easy to start the show from the beginning.
My Thoughts On The Series Finale of LOST
My wife and I have been watching LOST for years and, as it came to the final season, we were more than excited to see what it was all about.
To be honest, it’s hard to know if the series finale was satisfying or not. It was in some aspects, but left a lot of unanswered questions. Then again, how could they have answered them all?
I was very satisfied with how they ended the show and I kind of get it. I guess I’ve always kind of got it this season, but for some reason, I want more answers. I want it all spelled out for me.
Sheldon Cooper – Glee Club Member
Sheldon Cooper - Glee Club Member
What do you get when Sheldon Cooper joins Glee club? I’m not sure but it can’t be good. However a showdown between Sheldon and Sue Sylvester would be entertaining.

Glee vs LOST. What The Hell FOX?
Ok, so I understand that TV is a business just like everything else, but FOX is doing whatever it can to derail the final season of LOST. Jerks.
First I had to choose between American Idol and LOST. It didn’t take much thought to know I should be watching LOST.
Now, FOX has put Glee up against LOST. It’s a hard decision, but years of addiction to LOST is going to make it the winner once again.
This Is Truly Great Advertising. Seat Belts Save Lives.
We’ve been told over and over again that seat belts save lives, however not everyone uses them. This ad, without any words, is one of the best I’ve ever seen.
