The first episode of Everybody hates Chris. It is one of the best new shows this season.

The Chris Rock narration was pretty funny. The dad was funny to me, but I've found him funny in movies I've seen him in. Beyond that, like most child actors, the kid lacks any personality and scenes without narration just make you wish Rock would chime in with something humorous just to break the bad acting.

Video google? OWAHA?!?

Iannis · 09-27-2005, 06:28 PM

My Name is Earl is the bestest new show of the season. You just KNOW those motherfuckers are going to cancel it soon, because some malignant force deemed that good television can't exist. They *always* cancel the good shows, and leave us with gay-ass shit like The Office. "LOL i'm steve carrol and i play an offensive retard! LOLOMGWTFBBQORLY!!!"

Quincey_Cueva · 09-27-2005, 06:34 PM

Arrested Development, Everybody Hates Chris, My name is Earl, Rome, Curb Your Enthusiasm, Extras, Weeds, and Barbershop. Best stuff on TV.

Ham n Cheese · 09-27-2005, 06:40 PM

That show is nowhere near CYE and Arrested Devopment. I watched it all, lightly laughed two or three times due to the dad, but I can't imagine that being funny long.

My name is Earl was pretty good (love jason lee), but still nowhere near the level of CYE or AD yet.

TV stations should pick up on this and just have everything able to download off the net after you watch some ads. On demand is a good step, but they need to bite the bullet and go forward.

Ham n Cheese · 09-27-2005, 07:12 PM

Good idea. I hate missing my shit I like (I still get it on torrents), but for the normal person to be able to get it somehow without being able to skip commercials via internet is excellent.

Fixed.........

Iannis · 09-27-2005, 07:29 PM

I expect Scrubs is on the last season. It's old enough for syndication now, isn't it? Zach Braff will probably move fully into movies since Garden State did well for him.

I'm not even sure what night it comes on anymore. They didn't show any reruns of last season. grump.

Ham n Cheese · 09-27-2005, 08:00 PM

no argument here fanbuss.

Scrubs is currently on hiatus because Zack Braff is directing a movie. It will start production again when he's done. But yes, ratings on Scrubs have been extremely low the last few seasons, and I'd be surprised if it lasted much longer.

Unfortunately for the few good shows that get made I develope immediate disgust with any shows that deal with crime and 30 min sitcoms. Something special has to smack me around for me to take the time to notice any shows like that.

I almost wish there was a cap on how many a network could have. For example you would only be allowed 1 crime related show per year. Same goes for all the other useless shit they shovel out in the form of 30 min sitcoms and (lately) reality shows.

Jysin-DW · 09-28-2005, 07:33 AM

No one has mentioned "Lost". Although I cant stomach much thats on TV nowadays, but that is by far my favorite. I'd like to check out "My Name is Earl" as Jason Lee has always been funny in the Kevin Smith movies.

Eomer · 09-28-2005, 08:13 AM

Yeah, Lost really is a great show. I've only watched it maybe 3 times, but each and every time I've been enthralled in the show. Really interesting characters (all with checkered backgrounds, except maybe for the doctor dude, although I've seen little about his background), high production values, and all that.

My only problem is that Lost would probably make a much better movie series. Why? Because TV series are supposed to go on indefinitely to generate fat profits. So you know damn well that they'll keep cock teasing you with info, but you'll never really find out what the hell is going on.

But then again, maybe they'll have the balls to end it unambiguously after 3 or 4 seasons.
