So yesterday I watched 24 Redemption. I thought it was pretty good. I will admit I thought there was going to be more action. The action was good, don't get me wrong. I think that there was a lot of story to be told to set up the new season. At the end of the show the preview for the new season in January (11th &12th I think) looks pretty good. I'm glad I watched it.

I do like documentaries . Of course if it like it is based on the topic and how it is done. You can have a great subject but if the narrator is boarring then it can kill the movie. Of course I'm a fan of lots of the HBO ones, oh yeah and then I have seen a bunch of great ones about sex, porn and sex in movies. The most recent one I watched was on IFC it was Henry Rollins in Northern Ireland . Part of the movie is him talking to people about what happened and getting their thoughts on it how the peace is now. It was pretty interesting and there where some things that are similar to the ocuppation of Iraq , and there where some interesting peoples views on that. Then there was also part of his show that he performed. One of the stories he told I had Heard before but the other stuff was good also. I wish there was a way to hear and see the complete show he did, and to see more of the interviews of people he talked to. There was also a little bit of history about What started the IRA.

Last night it was time to watch (before Sons of Anarchy that I missed last week) Christmas special 2, it was Steven Colbert. The basic idea is he in a lodge and he is trying to get to his studio to film his Christmas Special, but when he tries to leave there is a bear so he can't. He doesn't want to pay royaltes so he makes up he own Christmas songs. People drop by to see him like John Stewart and Tobe Keith. I thought some of it was pretty funny. There is this video Toby does about people trying to fight Christmas, I thought that part of great. Then I liked the part where there where 4 wise men and one was Willie Nelson and they do those long thing about weed and I thought that part was funny. Later little cop cars pull up on the manger and bust Willie he says it wasn't his he was holding it for the Donkey. They have a running missile toe joke and the only one to kiss him is this huge Bear that ate Elvis Costello and then it chases him. In the end Santa saves him. I'm not really a fan of his but thought some of it was pretty good.

Well spy month continues with 24 tonight for 2 hours. From what I have seen it will be on DVD on Tuesday. I guess they will have special features and stuff then Best Buy has some exclusive version of it with something else. So for those don't see it go out and buy it I may. I can't wait for the new season in Jan.

First of all I'm so tired of this mess with Time Warner and channel 4. I do have a set of rabbit ears that attach to my old TV. But it dawned on me today that I need to go to dtvanswers.com that lead me to dtv2009.com or something like that and then I filled out an application to get two coupons for those digital converter box things. Yes I do have cable so my TVs should be covered that is what I keep hearing on all the ads. But there is a slight problem to get Channel 4 I use rabbit ears so come Feb 17th or when ever that is I wouldn't be able to get that station anymore. Some might say well by then this problem could all be worked out, but see it takes time to get get the coupons and then once you get them you only have 90 days to use them. So if I don't go and do it now when I'm thinking about it the problem doesn't get solved it could be to late. My Rabbit ears are the old school kind that have flat pieces that slide into screws on the back of a TV, I wonder if they will work with the boxes I Need to get. Maybe I should go to Time Warner and pick up their free Rabbit ears. It might be kinda tough though since I saw the times and they are only really available at times when I'm working, argghhhhhhhhhhh. Well I guess we shall see.

So I will admit I like FX channel. It is the cable version of fox. They used to have some repeats of fox shows like they used to re show 24. At the time it was a pretty good idea, if you miss one episode you could really get behind so it was a good way to keep viewers. Currently I'm watching Sons Of Anarchy it is about a bike gang and it is pretty good I think. I seem to all ways miss It allways Sunny in Philadelphia. I haven't tried yet but i guess you can watch it from their site I'm not sure when new episodes will be on, I know you can watch mini episodes of rescue me through that site also. That is really a good show.

This morning On HBO I missed the first few minutes of Section 60:Arlington National Cemetery. I don't know how to describe it, maybe it is sad, moving, or just a look into the memories people have of people who die in war. I'm not going to try to politicize it but this side of the story isn't thought about when we all are talking about if we should go to war, and that we are in the wrong country and all of that. I found the show a little hard to watch but it is something that should be watched.

More fun stuff so tonight on HBO at 11pm is Cathouse : Manage A Trois that looks like it should be a lot of fun to watch. Will it all be sex I doubt it but it could be lots of it. The only thing I wish was that on that show they would not blur out the mans dick when it is hard. I mean we know they are fucking but no dick. Not sure why that is I know showtime won't show erect dick either. Maybe they fear that men won't watch then, or maybe that would make it porn and there are legal reasons not sure really should still be pretty good. Yes I like my porn hard core for those who are wondering.

NBC tonight is replaying the 3 episodes of SNL live on Thursday tonight for those who haven't seen them that might be something to watch and then after the news SNL is live or as they say on the site all new, yes the music band is Coldplay, I love coldplay by the way in the "Stright world" that makes you a fag or gay. Well it doesn't really but people say that it does. That reminds me tonight I need to think out and write out that blog about that. Most blogs I write are right out of my head but that one needs to be written down really.

I lost my train of thought so hope everyone has a great weekend.

So Last night I got to watch SNL live on Thursday and thought it was good. (to watch the entire thing). The high lite to me was the opening. Will Farrell played George W. Bush I thought it was awesome, with out giving to much away he endorse Palin (Tina Fey) and McCain who can't be found but is brought onto stag, I again thought it was great.

I admit that I didn't see the Show live last night of Saturday Night Live I wish I did. But the few clips I saw this morning where pretty good. That link should take you to the clip of the show opening and then there are other clips there to view as well. I also liked the rap part of weekend update, not sure if it was funnier with Palin not doing the rap or if her doing it would have been better. Yes the clips are nice but not as good as if you saw everything in order and all of weekend update together.

Now as a way to test out the new upload feature I'm going to post tattoo Pictures that I have saved on my computer.
















































































Oh yeah I forgot that if any of you look at my myspace page I also put two of the SNL videos up as bulletins only one of them worked in my blog there for some reason. Well here are some more Tattoo pictures they look like they came out really good and they automaticly have space between them.















































































So hope the pictures from on line looks nice. Hope the Bills win today and everyone has a good weekend.

I'm not sure why I like Tina Fey, Yeah she is hot but that isn't the only reason. She was so good on weekend update. That part of the show has all ways been good, no mater who was on the show. I think that and her being part of it are a factor. If I read this site correctly starting this Thursday at 9:30 PM for 3 weeks in a row thy will have live weekend update, I think it could be pretty interesting. I wonder if they will use anything form the Debate on Tuesday of if they will save that for Saturday.

A link to how Tina Fey is good for SNL
You might want to check it out there are other things you can click on in the story but here is the story if you just care about that

Politics and Palin lure viewers to "SNL"
By Paul J. Gough Mon Oct 6, 6:30 AM PDT

The politics-fueled ratings train of "Saturday Night Live" keeps rolling along this election season with Tina Fey's impersonations of Republican vice presidential nominee Sarah Palin luring viewers.

"SNL" averaged a 7.4 household rating/18 share in the metered market overnights, Nielsen Media Research said on Sunday afternoon. That's within a tenth of a rating point of its September 13 premiere, which itself was the highest-rated show since December 14, 2002, when Al Gore and Phish appeared.

"SNL" is up 49 percent in the metered markets compared with the first four weeks of last season, as well as up 42 percent this past Saturday compared to episode No. 4 last season.

As expected, Saturday's show was heavy on the politics, spoofing the recent debate between Republican vice presidential candidate Sarah Palin and Democrat Joe Biden.

For the third time this season, Tina Fey portrayed Palin. Cast member Jason Sudeikis was Biden, and surprise guest Queen Latifah sat in as moderator Gwen Ifill.

Once again, Fey showed that she has cornered the market on Palin impersonations, and her insistence that the GOP ticket would be all "mavericky" gained wide traction on the Web where it could be seen in numerous video postings.

Another funny moment that seemed to strike a chord with audiences was Fey (as Palin) thanking "third graders of Gladys Wood Elementary, who were so helpful to me in my debate prep."

While the rest of the late-night shows have struggled to find their footing following the 2007/2008 writers strike, "SNL" has been on a roll ever since it took on Barack Obama, Hillary Clinton and others at the end of last season.

The show's success with political satire only got bigger and better in September, when "SNL" opened early with a special appearance by Fey as Palin.

"Clearly, 'Saturday Night Live' and Tina Fey's spot-on creation of Sarah Palin is now a part of this election season," said ABC News political director David Chalian. "It does show a frame through which a lot of people see these candidates."

Ifill, who drew controversy before the debate with reports she was writing a book about the rise of African American politicians including Barack Obama, did not escape the satire.

Twice Latifah mentioned the book and the publication date, once Inauguration Day and the other Election Day, and said that it was available for preorder.

Also on the firing line were Biden and Scranton, Pa., the beleaguered northeastern Pennslyvania city that has been invoked by Biden (who grew up there).

"They did equal-opportunity bashing," said CNN political analyst Gloria Borger, noting that it wasn't just Palin who was the target of humor on "SNL."

I just wanted to add that who winds up winning the Election could have a Big Effect on someone's comedy future. For those people who can do impressions well they should really work on being very good at someone or everyone. I know Tina Fey isn't a cast member of SNL anymore but I think it is awesome that she does Palin so well. When McCain Wins (I do think he is going to win for multiple reasons like 1. Hillary fans are loyal to her and some of them will follow sarah or now that she is out don't care any more so dems lose votes 2. Lots of whites who say they don't care about race are liers and won't vote for barrack. 3. Most votes doesn't count it is who gets the most points) , I have felt this ever since it was him only and Barrack and Hillary where still fighting for the nomination; then at least maybe Tina Fey will be on SNL every so often playing Palin. I hope I'm wrong but that is just the fealing I get. In any event it is nice to see SNL get a little bit of a surge here. I wish Tina would come back and Just to weekend update she and Amy played so well off of each other.

So I have lots of interests and one of them is MMA. Showtime has a league called EliteXC and that is on CBS live tonight. So since I have Rabbit Ears that work (time warner and CBS you both still piss me off, ass holes, I think if cable companies also did al le carte service it would be a way to work around this) I can watch that at 9 PM tonight. The link is about weigh ins. I guess the quick report is that Kimbo Slice and Shamrock got into it, don't know if that will make there fight any better (I think she is pretty hot) That Gina Carano got naked so she could make weight. I hope the fights tonight are good you never know.

At least I'll be able to watch the Bills on sunday. I think it could be a very good game vs. the cardinals. I think it is a big test for the Bills. Yes I am happy and surprised they haven't lost a game yet, but they also haven't played anyone in the AFC East yet so we shall see what happens when they do. I also wonder what the 1PM game will be. Both things on CBS (rat bastards along with time warner, who I think should give people money back on there bills based on how long CBS is off of cable for) I'll be watching on my small TV in my bed room. Even though it is smaller the set up puts me closers to the TV so sometimes the picture seems bigger, well not bigger but I can see it better. On a side note I wonder if Tina Fey will be on SNL doing a debate Sketch tonight that would be pretty cool.

What to do, who is really the greedy company, will they really work something out?????? ARGGGGGGGGGGGh the entire thing makes me crazy. Should I cancel cable and get a dish so I can Watch Football. But I like my indemand stuff. Are both side greedy? I'm not an expert but I think if Cable had the al le carte system this wouldn't be a problem. If CBS wanted more money then it would cost more money to have it as a station. Well I guess some time tonight I have to call them. Oh yeah they give us some college sports station that I don't care about and an HBO I allready have. I think both sides should have thought about the viewers and the NFL 1st. But who knows maybe they will work something out. Hey if there is no game then do we get two Fox games instead of One? I wonder if MMA can we watched live online? I want to fucking scream, I need my AFC Football games.

I'm sure I have said this In a blog before but I find it odd (maybe it just that I have a lot of interests not sure) that there is either nothing on TV I'm into or there is a bunch of stuff. A good example of that is Sunday night. 8-10pm on Fox is Animation Domination (The Simpsons and Family Guy are the best two of all four). Then at 9pm you have Desperate Housewives (I have no idea why I like that show) Also at 9pm (to graphic for me) is Dexter followed by Californacation [awesome show haven't seen the new season yet] then on HBO is Trueblood. That is followed by 3 new shows and then repeats after them it is Entourage (good), Little Britten USA (passed out on) couple minutes I saw was good and some animated show The Life of Tim or something like that. The way these shows line up they over lap with this show on just blanked if it is IFC or Sundance I think IFC called Z rock. It is a funny show about this rock band who because they haven't made it is also a kids band and does kids songs, it is a pretty good show. This is why I'm glad Time Warner has the Indemand stations that way you can try and catch stuff you missed once it get added to the station. What bothers me about Time Warner (maybe this has changed) is they and WIVB can't get along and it looks like they might lose them. I'll be honest I never watch channel 4 except For Football. I hope Time Warner knows that if people lose football games they will turn Cable off, I hope WIVB isn't trying to rip off Time Warner based on this fact. I have no idea who is in the right but they need to work it out so I can watch football. OH yeah and I forgot on Sunday Nights there is football to watch also if it is teams I'm into.
