Other shows

The Office - This is my favorite show. I have never not liked an episode. I really consider the 1st episode of the new year to be 2 episodes because its all they were. That being said, I liked the 1st episode (or 1st half) a lot, like I usually do. The 2nd episode (or 2nd half) was the worst episode of the show I've ever seen. It was still ok, but I have high expectations for a show this consistanly great. The preview for next week's episode appears to be good, but I'll see. This show has more than earned a free pass on one episode, but I hate that it was the 1st one of a new season.

Chuck - I was not really expecting much from this. It looked like it had potential but the thousands of previews really lowered my appreciation for it. The 1st episode was good though. It had some nice moments. The guy who plays Chuck is kinda acting a little too much like Jim from The Office though. Still, I'll give it another go. I think it could last 1 season.

Heroes - Man was I dissapointed with this one. I'm not the biggest Heroes guy (in fact I sometimes feel like I like this show less than any fan of it ever, even though I like it.) Hope it picks up and Sylar returns to kick some Hero ass.

My Name is Earl - Like Heroes, I feel like I am the fan of the show who likes it the least. It's always just been an OK to good show to me. This episode however was great. I liked it better than The Office (high expectations for that to low ones for this). I hope it keeps up.

The Big Bang Theory - Another show that I thought about watching, stopped thinking about it, then watched it anyway. Solid stuff for a 1st episode. I don't know, I see it getting cancelled after about half a season (I hope not).

Back to You - Man was this show bad. I mean, they already have a storyline going and then they throw in the kid? Ugh. I never give up on a show after one episode (do to every pilot usually being awful. Look at some of your favorite shows and watch the pilot. It is always the worst my friends.) I'll keep watching but if it continues its awfulness then I'm out. This will be canceled soon.

Shows I have on DVR but have yet to watch: K-ville(1st and 2nd ep), Journeyman, House, and Reaper.

Smackdown match. Although, Show did swing Rey like a back while he was on the stretcher into the ring post. It was kinda cool the first 10 times they showed it, but the next 20 it was like, "c'mon already."

o Hardy pinned Mysterio using leverage from the ropes.
o **
Too short to be anything.

o Nathan Jones, who was scheduled to be Undertaker's partner for the match, made a brief run-in to help Undertaker in the end.

This probably should have had a few minutes chopped off and given to the 1st match.

• Trish Stratus defeated Victoria (w/Stevie Richards) (c) and Jazz in a Triple Threat match to win the WWE Women's Championship (7:17)
o Stratus pinned Victoria after a Chick Kick.

Just a generic triple threat match with women.

o ****1/4
Crowd was dead for it but fuck 'em. This was a great way to send Angle out. I though he was gonna be out for at least a year, but Angle is some kind of alien and he came back 3 months later.

~ 3 matches at at least ***1/2 with 2 being ****1/4. Good enough for me.

ECW One Night Stand 2006 Review

Tazz vs. Lawler - DUD
Match was 30 seconds. Not a lot to say. Great to see Lawler as a heel, though.

Orton vs. Angle - ***
Hot crowd, as there was in literally every match. Can't believe they were so into Angle. Anyway, Orton is great at getting heat here. He get's the crowd so pissed that they are pretty much begging for his blood. Every time Kurt goes for one of his patented moves (German, Angle Slam, Ankle Lock) Orton is able to reverse it, thus pissing the crowd off. The anticipation keeps building until Kurt finally gets his offense in. Needless to say the crowd marked out. Building up moves as opposed to just randomly throwing them around? There ya go Kurt.

F.B.I. vs. Tajiri/Super Crazy - **3/4
Standard ECW tag here. Not a lot of storytelling but it was a fun spotfest so it served it purpose. Big Show then comes out and stomps all four guys into the ground. Watch the crowd go from hesitant of Show to loving him after the Cobra Clutch Backbreaker.

Rey vs. Sabu - ***
I liked this a lot less than I used to. Match was basically spot-spot-spot but again it was fun as Hell. Rey even busted out some offense I haven't seen from him in years here. I know a lot of people aren't fans of the finish but I thought it really needed to go down that way. Sabu can't win the title, but you don't want him to lose the match, especially when you have Cena lined up for him at the next PPV. Murder-Death-Kill DDT leads to the no-finish.

Foley/Edge/Lita vs. Funk/Dreamer/Beulah - ****
Pretty insane brawl. If you haven't read Foley's 3rd autobiography, much of it centers around the forming of this match. Foley said he wanted it to deliver because he didn't want to come back just for some random match. I'll say it was a success. I loved when Foley used Socko to get extra heat here btw. Also, pretty crazy stuff with the barb wire by WWE's standards. Almost positive Foley is insane for that fire-into-the-barb-wire spot.

Balls vs. Tanaka - *1/2
Just here for the break between the main events so the crowd won't be dead. Of course they were pretty rabid for this match anyway. Pretty much the footnotes to their generic matches. Still fun for the time given.

RVD vs. Cena - ***1/2
Pretty sure the crowd doesn't like Cena. May be the most in favor of any wrestler I've ever seen in for RVD. I loved Cena's entrance here. May sound weird but if I could be any wrestler on any night I would have loved to have been Cena at Hammerstein. Just to have the crowd that passionate one way or the other would be incredible. Crowd booed every time Cena did anything. Loved the shirt tossing too. Really put over that Cena had never been in any environment like this before. Great stuff as Cena is distracted by the crowd at first, but then he gets comfortable with them and starts to play off them. When he's dominating, the crowd of course boos but Cena shrugs it off and starts taunting them with some shadow boxing as RVD gets to his feet. Crowd is less than thrilled that they aren't getting under his skin. Finish was kinda dumb but it kept Cena strong. Great moment for me as I had been a RVD fan for years and it was nice to see him get to the top.

Other Reviews other than WWE

I'm gonna start posting some TNA, ROH, ECW (old) and WCW PPV reviews sometime in the future. I have them done but it's just posting them that's left. I'm probably not gonna say something about every match (like I do now), but I'll still give star ratings and such.

Prison Break Season 3 Premiere

When the 2nd season started, I have to admit, I wasn't looking forward to it. I thought there was no way they could pull off a season that even remotely matched the 1st one. Low and behold they put together some great TV. This year, I got those same feelings again as season 3 rolled around. I mean, no Kellerman? Needless to say, I loved the 1st episode. It just got the story rolling for what should be a great season. I'm still waiting for it to turn into Lost and start getting gradually worse, but that's the pessimist in me I suppose.

I DVR'ed K-Ville after PB. I don't know when I'm gonna check it out because it just doesn't feel like a great show. I don't know.

It's Always Sunny = It's Always Awesome...at least the 2nd episode was...

Solid start for It's Always Sunny in Philly this past Thursday. I wasn't loving the 1st episode (probably the worst one I've seent them do, which is still better than most garbage floating around now) but the 2nd was classic. Danny DeVito should be on acid 24/7. The guy from the Miller High Life commercials was great, too.

The 2-0 Houston Texans

Wow. I never thought I would ever say that. Is that sad? It's really wierd watching this team do well. I'm used to using them as a punchline and then crying when no one's around. But low and behold, The Texans are 2-0. It's strange to be watching the games and to be thinking, "We could win this game." It's also good to be cheering for once. I'm usually laughing at Carr running around like an idiot and then taking an ass kicking from a lineman. It is REALLY wierd to see the shmucks on ESPN actually talking positive about the Texans instead of talking about how Reggie Bush and Vince Young were gonna haunt the Texans forever. OK guys, we get it. Management screwed up for the first year. Let's not put both guys in the HOF yet. Let's give a guy who was thought to go number 2 a bit of a chance.

Man, if only Andre Johnson was playing this Week against the Colts, I would be drooling over that one. I mean a chance to be 3-0 and in sole position of 1st place? Wow. Just wow. Oh well. I'm a Texans fan, I think negative...I don't know...all the time? I just have to say if Schaub can find a way to win the game against the defending SuperBowl champs with Kevin Walter as his #1 receiver, I'll put him in the Texans HOF forever.
