"Jericho" Neighbor Problems Tonight

2007-04-25T13:45:00Z

On "Jericho" tonight tensions heat up between the residents of Jericho and the neighboring town of New Bern. Several people are shot and injured when they try to steal salt from Jericho's salt mine. Nothing worse than salt free French fries (just kidding) but it looks like Jericho is heading for an all out conflict with its neighbors. This show is one of my favorites and, was to many a surprise hit but the ratings have dropped since it returned from its break. "Jericho" is a well written drama with some good acting and i hope it gets renewed for another season although at the moment it looks like its on the bubble.

This dvd set includes all the episodes of the first season including the classic "Turkey Drop" episode. This show is a classic television comedy and im glad its finally available on dvd.

"The Real Wedding Crashers" Premieres Tonight

2007-04-23T08:57:00Z

A new hidden camera reality show premieres tonight on NBC at 10pm. The show is called "The Real Wedding Crashers" and was inspired by the movie "Wedding Crashers." In this show improv actors will go undercover and pose as things like wedding planners, waiters, guests or even long lost friends in an effort to pull off pranks on the unsuspecting party goers with the bride and groom the only ones let in on the pranks. If this sounds like an episode of MTV's "Punk'd" that maybe because the show is produced by Ashton Kutcher and Jason Goldberg the producers of that show. Why would a couple sign up for this i have no idea, even if the producers pay for the wedding but it should be interesting to watch.

Has "American Idol" Lost Its Edge?

2007-04-23T08:24:00Z

First of all i must say i enjoy "American Idol" and have watched it over many seasons but this year seems a little lackluster. Even ignoring the fact that Sanjaya shouldn't have been in the finals and, having to watch him every week. At least Sanjaya made the show interesting in recent weeks the performances have been dull and uninspired to say the least. The Latin Week as well as the week with Tony Bennett were probably the two worse weeks as far as performances went. I have read that it is being said that the talent pool of really amazing singers is drying up for the long running show but i don't think that is the case. On the show this year you have three really good female singers although a lot of the time their performances seem safe and not that exciting. Taylor Hicks last seasons winner didn't have a voice that blew you away but he put in solid performances which were entertaining to watch. I hope that now we are down to the last few contestants they can step it up and make there performances more exciting otherwise we will have a dull finale.
