premiere week

the first week of fall tv was a great success.
it's like a holiday week.

and with the weekend of great football,

it was even betta.

i picked up a few new shows:

castle

they solve crimes.

big surprise. crime fighting is the new "aliens" these days.

the twist here is that this guy is a writer-

so he can creatively and intuitively write the story as he goes

and solves crimes almost better than the cops.

good stuff.

 

chase

this one is the reverse of prison break.

in fact, a lot of the same characters are in it.

should be fun- its not one big long story though,

they catch a guy each time.

it's more like house in that way-

new story- new episode.

could be good.

 

outsourced

this one has some potential.

did i laugh as hard as the premiere of 30Rock or Community?

No.

but this could be the bump, set, spike to jazz up your comedy line-up.

we shall see.

to end the week of greatness,

a fabulous ucla game.

this here is cousin kev- after his 34 yard touchtown run.

pretty cool to watch from his house.

the win was a huge upset, and ended texas's home winning streak.

deep in the heart.

suckas.

yes, i am still watching byu football,

[not pictured]

though it will be painful.

perhaps even for another year or two as all the babies grow up some.

they are on a 3-game losing streak- most under bronco since 2004.

i know it looks like my life is spent in front of a tv.

...no comment.

happy BL night-

recap tomorrow in case you miss it!

long-winded movie review - despicable me

so,

arriving in our new place last weekend,

we had no boxes, no furniture.

nothin.

so we went out to dinner and a movie.
dinner was not amazing,
but we are finding that most things in our immediate town are not...
have to drive a bit to get the good stuff.
noted.

the movie?

this one:

despicable me



the characters are fun and the dialogue is witty...
the girls are adorable.


the minions are hysterical. you want one.
and if you go you have to download the app they tell you to translate them at the end.
so funny.

the 3D is fun in this one too- they ride a roller coaster,
and the minions come out at you...
pretty cool.


and honestly, i forgot it was steve the whole time! The cast does a great job at creating new voices and characters... cept for that kid from 30 rock- he's pretty blatant...

good flick. great story.
completely entertained for an evening
in our charming little small-town movie theatre.
(it has stairs and it's never busy, just minus the stadium seating...)

i would give it a 4/5
rent or own? probably own.

for all of your "lack of pushing daisies" woes

my gem of a bro may have just shown me my new favorite show

to be aired this fall.

when you have the time,

the full pilot of:

glee

it is 30 rock meets high school musical meets friday night lights...

and i know you heart at least 2 of those...

if you don't watch the whole thing, zip to find the music.

(rehab, and don't stop believing i own and rock in gunner oft)

its going to be fantastically witty and full of fun.

i am making my list of reasons to need tivo this fall.

number one.

brittanica and mickelsen,

i may have changed your life just now...
