killerik - Why the hell not?

...Stop canceling decent television shows so that you can put on some crap reality show that no one really wants to see.

Seriously. Stop.

Today I'm pointing my finger at NBC.

First you put Studio 60 on "hiatus". A hiatus that it may never come back from. You hyped up the show, got myself and others interested, then pulled it out from under my eyes. The problem with the ratings could be that you put it on after Heroes and were hoping for some carry-over. Sadly, the shows are so dissimilar that there was no way that you were going to retain nearly enough viewers. One's targeted toward the Spider-man set and the other toward people that enjoyed the West Wing. There is some cross-over(example: me), but what were they thinking?

The only good thing that came from the hiatus was The Black Donnellys. The show was gritty, violent, and turning into the new Sopranos for me. Guess what? It's been pulled too. Maybe it was too bloody for network tv? If that's the case, then why even purchase the show in the first place? Hopefully this show can get picked up by another network? The aforementioned "Sopranos" is ending in a couple of months. This could be a good filler for HBO. Obvious wishful thinking. It'll never happen. Too bad, I wanted to see more Jenny Reilly and I don't like watching Dashboard Confessional videos.

Do you know what they're replacing two quality shows with? The Real Wedding Crashers! It's a show based on the hit movie, except not. In this wonderful show the bride and the groom team up to pull one over on their wedding guests. The family gets punk'd. Hilarity ensues. Good stuff.

Die NBC, Die!(which is german for "The NBC, the!")

Add on: CBS might be thinking of canceling How I Met Your Mother. Supposedly some higher ups at "the eye" don't find the humor in HIMYM. I don't see how that could be possible(see: Robin Sparkles). I've just recently found this show, and love it. One of the best comedies on tv. It's legendary.

My name is Erik. I'm pretty sure that we've met before.

I've been sick for around 2+ weeks. Finally, today, I think that I'm completely better(I had a false not-sick-anymore-alarm a week and a half ago).

Maybe later on I'll tell you how my friends think that I got sick. It's a good story.

I personally think that I got sick by going running in the cold while wearing shorts. Damn you fitness!

Well, I just wanted to let you all(two of you) know that I'm back and ready for some update action. This post doesn't count, but I'll throw you a video that I found over at TV Squad.

You may not want to watch it if you haven't been keeping up with Lost in the past month. It could be spoilerish.

I just wanted to pass along a couple music recommendations(just like the title says).

First off is one of my new favorites. It's Kidz Bop, Vol. 11.

It's just one of the most original albums that I've ever heard. I really can't even explain the greatness of this. Just pick it up, and fast.

You can grab it up through iTunes here:

and Amazon.com here: Kidz Bop, Vol. 11

My second recommendation is both musically brilliant and educational.

Fergie(The blond chick from Wild Orchid) is an up and comer with big things in her future. Through her music you'll learn how to spell words like "G-L-A-M-O-R-O-U-S", "D-E-L-I-C-I-O-U-S", "T-A-S-T-E-Y" and "F-E-R-G-I-E". Impress your friends with those. Also, her face looks exactly like an old catcher's mitt and she used to be a meth addict. If someone can overcome those shortfalls, then maybe, just maybe, they deserve a play in the music player of your choice.
