Why I Hate TV Right Now

TV right now is killing me. I hate baseball and Teen Jeopardy.

Stupid baseball. Fox is 'hosting' the World Series. Baseball is what made me watch House forty-five minutes late. Now it's the reason that Fringe, House, and Glee are all post-poned until the series is over. UGH. I'm sorry, sports fans. I really am. But isn't this what we have ESPN for?

Stupid Teen Jeopardy! Oh my gosh. I get really frustrated watching them. I don't think I'm really smart enough to be on the show, but I'd like to be, and I'm the same age as the kids on the teen tournament, but I'm answering the regular questions. I wish I had watched way back when Meryl was on it. I don't even remember why I didn't. But these kids... they played a clip of a bassoon, which has a very specific timbre, and the only person to ring it said 'violin'. No one else knew. There are always plenty of stupid little things like that. As an adult, I'll probably forgive them, like how I can forgive the little middle schoolers for not answering certain very simple questions. But I am the same age as these people, so I get very upset. And the simpleness of the questions is almost insulting! If I were on that show, especially tonight's episode, I would have been genuinely insulted if the questions were as easy as they were. And tonight's final! "There's a statue of him at the Baker street subway station." Girl answered Shakespeare. SERIOUSLY?

So I'm very excited for the next few weeks of television. Teen Jeopardy will be over after another week, and my regular daily trivia show can resume; the World Series will finally end, and we can go back to what's really important, House, Fringe, and Glee!

First Post, FTW?

I've been doing a lot of review-style entries on the other blog, and I figured that people wouldn't necessarily want to read about them. Plus trying to keep up with them and post about... well... life?... would be hard, and would include multiple posts a day. For that reason, any 'review' [I am in no way a critic, nor should I really be listened to, this is all opinion] -style posts will be here.

I've only posted two TV review posts on four-12 so far. The first one can be found here and the second, here.

From now on, you can expect individual posts per show, and posts about books, movies, CDs, and other things of that sort. Yay! I'm excited [heh -.-"].


Coming soon: House, Heroes, Castle, Glee, Fringe, Brave New World, and Forget And Not Slow Down.
Even though I should be studying.
