Sorry I haven't posted in almost two months, I have been somewhat busy. For the million of readers out there I have been ignoring, you deserve an explanation. I was busy getting engaged to the writer over at
Elevated Ebenezer. I have been nodding my head as she plans a wedding and trying to keep my head above water in a pretty stressful year at the school. There have been SO many things to blog about in the entertainment world and I have found myself wanting to sit down and write but I haven't had the energy or the time. BUT I AM BACK!
So whats new with your media hero? I am still watching my main set of shows, and I have added one or two shows to the mix as well. Dexter is in the middle of yet another intense season and I will probably have to dedicate an entire post to where my head is with that show. So be on the look out for that.
The last two months have been sports crazy for me. The Burleson Bulls were playing for the championship, the Cowboys were falling off the face of the Earth, the Mavs are BACK, and of course the Texas Rangers basically shocked the world with a memorable run into the World Series. I was blessed enough to get to see Game 6 of the ALCS that sent the Rangers to the World Series as well as Game 3 of the World Series with my parents and my future father in law. All these sports things that were going on had me saying on a daily basis "I wish I had somewhere to talk about this sports happiness". One rough day at work I decided that I wanted to try my hand at this internet podcasting phenomenon. So I tweeted my interest and immediately heard from a buddy who was interested and now 5 weeks later we are actually gaining a little popularity. Check us out,
The Win Column . We mainly talk DFW sports with a splash of the national coverage.
So, moving on... In entertainment the new season of shows is in full effect and I am gonna do a quick hit on a few shows that I have stuck with through the years. This is Media Hero right, I can't self promote my podcast TOOO much the whole....
1. The Biggest Loser - WORST cast yet, nobody left on the show is worth watching except maybe Ada or whatever her name is. All that is left is some spoiled fat people that aren't trying to change their life, they are just trying to play the game. I am all for game playing on shows like Survivor or Big Brother, but a life changing show it's annoying. Frado, Brandon, and all the others on this show, I know this is a little harsh but I hope you relapse into being fat harder than a 15 year crack addict relapses into drugs.
2. The Walking Dead - May be the next biggest show out there. Finally we are shifting past this
crap vampire phase a
nd heading into something alittle more believable. ZOMBIES! /sarcasm. This show is pretty damn awesome. The make up and the effects are very believable and the story line is one that differs from other zombie flicks out there. My only beef with this show and AMC is why are there only 6 episodes planned for this season??? That isn't enough to get the full feel for this series. Also, will you still sell the Blu-Ray for 70 bucks for the first season like they did with Breaking Bad that only had like 7 episodes?
3. I will preface this next quick hit with a NO HOMO. But One Tree Hill officially should be cancelled. It sucks now, but I have watched it so long that I can't quit on it. My viewing of this show goes back to college and I struggle to admit that I do watch it. I have a gut feeling that I will get made fun for this on the Win Column at some point but oh well. Cancel the show, make this season the last one. Not even the pure hottness of Sophia Bush can save this show.
4. Black Ops - Everything I worried about with this new game has been proven wrong. Treyarch you did your thing. I hated your last Call of Duty and almost didn't buy this one but damn I am glad I did. Even the fiance somewhat enjoys it, when I let her wear th
e headphones and talk trash. The annoying thing with this game will shortly be the Remote Control Car kill streak. EVERYONE is using them and as cool as they were a week ago... they are not so cool anymore. The maps are challenging, the campaign is sick, and there are very few glitches in the game so far which is shocking for a game that hasn't issued an update yet. Stay Hard Black Ops.
5. The Win Column - Shameless plug.
Hit Us Up. We are on Wordpress and also iTunes.
So there you go, I am back. I am going to make every effort possible to get more posts up here. Look for Dexter, Big Bang Theory, and other shows/movies/music that are on my radar.
Dexter Morgan, everyone's favorite serial killer, is once again all sorts of tangled up in an interesting situation of rape, murder, and lies. That's basically an average Tuesday for the guy. Season 5 is well underway and with the added star power of Julia Stiles, many viewers are almost forgetting about the thriller that was season 4. While season 5 definitely has had it twists and turns, in my opinion, I think it is going to have to take a CRAZY murder of a main character to even remotely compare the greatness of Trinity and Rita. But here is my look into season 5 and more specifically the last few episodes...
ip that we are seeing growing between Lumen and Dexter, I don't think it is remotely sexual. I don't see them jumping in the sack together this season at but I do see Dex realizing that for once he may not have to be alone in all of this. Granted, I am sure that will bite him in the ass by season's end because thats how the writer's usually work on this show. Dexter shows that towards Lumen when he gives her the blood slide in the last episode after knocking of Lieutenant Douchebag fro Jordan Chase's security. Are they the new power killer couple? ha
