The Amazing Race: I've Become the Archie Bunker of the Home
Posted by: Ariana • November 12, 2007 @ 11:40pm
This week, we're headed from Ireland to the Netherlands! And you know what that means: bicycles. The show will not disappoint.
In pit stop interviews, various teams tell us that they will be better at not bickering/not getting lost/not being slow, etc. on this leg. I, however, have my doubts. Oh, and Ronald starts his harping on Christina early.
Welcome back to us!
Okay, so Ryan threw a management wilderness retreat type thing and didn't invite Michael, but did invite Toby. So Michael decides to stage his own Survivorman style solo wildness retreat. He makes Dwight drive him out to the middle of the "Pennsylvania wilderness" and leave him there.
I love the credits so much.
Brief Rundown: George Fleming, a professor at Stanford and a CIA asset (a scientist, not an operative), has gone missing, presumably stolen by some kind of Icelandic hitman whose weapon of choice is the crossbow, and the Important People need Chuck to help them find said professor.
Heeeeeeere we go! We're in Los Angeles, California, "the home of Hollywood." Oookay. Thanks, Phil. (HI PHIL!!!!) Starting line? The Playboy Mansion. Well, of course.
So this week, we find out Karen is running the Dunder Mifflin Utica branch, and that she has an assistant named Rolando ("Ro"). I'm not sure why the Utica branch was more important to keep open than the Stamford branch, but there you have it.
Have you ever noticed the part with the throwing stars right at the end of the credits? Awesome. Also, let's just get this out there right now: Zachary Levi makes me all shivery. He so fine.
Brief Rundown: This guy Laszlo is wanted by all our friendly neighbourhood government agencies.
Well, here we are. Or here I am. With you, and The Office. I am very, very glad that this is only a half-hour episode. Now, I love The Office as much as the next person... No, probably more than the next person... But the hour-long episodes were becoming tedious.
Scrubs is back for its seventh and final season. This is a bittersweet time for me, because I'm glad the show was picked up for one last season by NBC, but I know this is the end. Of course, lots of people say the show has fallen in quality over the last couple seasons, and seven seasons seems like a good number for a TV show to go out on without getting too stale.
DVD Review: Hercules: The Legendary Journeys - Season 6
Posted by: Dean Kish • August 23, 2005 @ 7:00am
Hercules: The Legendary Journeys was a show that no one ever thought would evolve into the phenomenon it became.
Hunter was a detective series made for the 1980s.
The series starred former football star Fred Dryer as Sgt. Rick Hunter, a no-nonsense L.A. detective who would do almost anything to nail his suspect. He was a hero born in the 80s and his whole action persona reflected that.
