House – S06E02 – Epic Fail

.
.


House a cook? if this season couldn’t get any more awesome. From the beginning to the end of this episode, House went full circle. He left the hospital because he thought he’d “use” again, but now he has to go back to relieve his pain. As a diagnostician he finds his work stimulating, his thirst to solve mysteries overwhelms his minute pain in his calf. In the season premiere we weren’t introduced to the other characters: Foreman, Cuddy, Thirteen, Chase & Cameron. Can’t wait to see House back in the hospital, it’s going to be very different. Especially because we might actually see the dream team back together.

Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen

.

The BluRay is finally out, and i got a chance to see the film. Any frame that doesn’t have a robot isn’t worth watching. The script begs for creativity, it’s as if it’s written for 5 year olds. Oh wait! There the one’s who buy these action-figure robots. Thus, annihilating the rest of the age group who watch these films. 200 million dollar film with a 2 cent script? What i liked about this film was that it had more of the origins of the Transformers. We are also revisited by the fact that the pyramids were built by aliens (an original michael bay idea). Hats off to Bay for pulling out all the stops with the military scenes. Also some very unnecessary scenes where we have to see the Sector 7 dude’s thong. I’m pretty sure Bay was wanking off that.

Dexter – S04E01 – Living The Dream

.
.

Guilty pleasure has served a bloody platter with the season premiere of Dexter. Who would’ve thought? Dexter Morgan a father, when you were watching Season 1? The story has evolved and splattered itself something bloody brilliant. Although Dexter’s sleep-deprived state is making him loose his edge. The new serial killer who’s alias is ‘Trinity’, is a sick force to be reckoned with. Dexter put his life in one phrase, “the most successful serial killer, to get away with it”. (more…)

FlashForward – S01E01 – No More Good Days

.
.

This was one of the best pilots i’ve ever seen. A breathtaking way to start this refreshing new series. Just like how Fringe is the new X-Files, FlashForward is the new Lost. The difference is more in style and direction, having the same supernatural unexplainable phenomena. My posts have always been somewhat of a spoiler, but the last few minutes of the show were cliffhanger endings. When everyone blacked out, there was one person walking through the stadium. He or She was unaffected, and wore a long dark jacket. The surveillance video only shows in black and white and has very little resolution and clarity. The dots start connecting because Mark Benford seems to have seen these individuals during his FlashForward. (more…)

Fringe – S02E02 – Night of Desirable Objects

.
.

Night of Desirable Objects referring to the fish hook that Peter Bishop saved up to buy. Although they alluded to this object two times throughout the show it has very little significance. Well as far as surprises go, this episode lacked it. The “Fringe” part of this episode was pretty lame as a matter of fact. A scorpion-homosapien hybrid mammal was introduced. It looked more like Gollum from Lord of the Rings. Charlie Francis who is now the other-worldly machine now has on objective to find out what Olivia Dunham knows and remembers. Because of the spoiler preview at the end of the season premiere we know that she will have recollections of her meeting with William Bell. Olivia has developed a supernatural ability of enhanced hearing. This hearing allows her to hear absolutely everything, but she also has the power to zone out. Maybe if this power to be enhanced she would be able to read minds. Unfortunately the mind reading ability has been overdone with law enforcement shows & films.

MTV Video Music Awards 2009

.
.

The most talked about award show this year because of Kanye West. The video has been seen many times across the internet and network TV. What you might not know is that Taylor Swift won the very first award that night for Best Female Video. I thought Kanye interrupted Taylor well into the show. Beyoncé had ~3 nominations that night: Best Female, Best Pop & Best Video of the Year. Kanye West on the other had ~5 nominations. He didn’t win any of them, everytime his name was mentioned during the show it was followed by booing and cheers for Taylor Swift. Taylor later had her moment and to be honest it wasn’t wasted. She thanked allot of important people who were responsible for her video including her brother’s high school, which gave her permission to film there. For her, this video may not have cost millions of dollars like Single Ladies or Love Lockdown, but it meant allot. (more…)

61st Emmy Awards

.
.

I’m going to keep this one short. The Emmys were good. The big winners were Mad Men & 30 Rock, household award winning names. I was disappointed with 30 Rock’s pilot, and the first few episodes of Mad Men. It looks like i might have to give them another try. The reason I watched the Emmys this year is because i’ve watched so many of the nominated shows: Lost, Dexter, House, The Office, 30 Rock, Mad Men, 24, American Idol & Fringe. For me seeing my favourite actors being nominated was such a delight. Hats off to Michael Emerson for taking home the Emmy for Best Supporting Actor. He has made the Lost family proud. The host Neil Patrick Harris did a tremendous job. Although he wasn’t funny, get kept everything moving along. Just wanted to wrap it up.

Heroes – S04E02 – Jump, Push, Fall

.
.

Heroes’ Season Premiere this Monday included two episodes: E01-Orientation & E02-Jump, Push, Fall. The reason i’m watching Season 4 of Heroes is for Robert Knepper. Who played Theodore Bagwell in FOX’s “Prison Break”. I think he’ll bring about a darker mood to the peppy teenage tv series. Zachary Quinto is also a driving factor for this series. Without his tremendous presence throughout the series, the show would have caved in. Unfortunately we still have to take in more of Hayden Panettiere’s garbage. Why doesn’t NBC kill her already.
