TV Recap

Am I the only one watching "Rules of Engagement" starring David Spade and Patrick Warburton (Puddy from Seinfeld)? It's on in place of "The New Adventures of Old Christine" (strange that one ex-Seinfeld person knocks out another).

Personally, I'm a huge fan of anything Warburton is in. His dead pan humor strikes my funny bone consistently. The show is about 2 couples: Warburton and his wife as the old couple and a younger couple recently engaged and Spade as the single womanizer (I guess now that he's gotten Heather Locklear it's ok to make him out to be attractive to women, but I don't get it).

Warburton is laugh out loud funny as the oaf who isn't too excited about being married and envies Spade's free-wheeling ways. In a recent episode, he had to visit the doc to have his swimmers checked since they were unable to have kids. Here's how that went down:
Doctor: You'll have to give us a sample to test.
Warburton: How much ya need?
Doctor: Just put whatever you've got in this cup.
Warburton: Cool, can you give us the office for 10 minutes?
Doctor: Uh, we have a special room down the hall for that.
Warburton: Nice.
Doctor: There are some reading materials in there to help.
Warburton: Porn?
Doctor: Yes.
Warburton: Nice. Where's the stash at?
Doctor: It's out in plain site.
Warburton: Nice.
In the room... Warburton sits down, puts on his reading glasses and picks up a PlayPen magazine and opens it up.
Warburton: Excellent... an interview with Brett Favre.
Cut to a half hour later and his wife impatiently pacing the hallway outside the room. She finally knocks on the door.
Warburton: Ugggggh!
He opens the door naked except for his reading glasses.
Wife: What happened?
Warburton: I missed.
Wife: What?
Warburton: I had it teed up but you knocked and I shanked it.
Wife: Why are you naked?
Warburton: I had to get the full experience.
Wife: What was taking so long?
Warburton: I was romancing myself. I don't know about you but I enjoy a little foreplay first.
Warburton: I'm gonna need some more time, have to take a catnap.

He just kills me.
Anyway, watch the show if you're a fan of Puddy.

Shows I watch

Drama's:
Heroes is on a 6 week break. How painful is that? I don't get why they do that at all. When they bring it back I will have completely forgotten what was going on.

Lost... Lost and Heroes are following the same path. Lots of gaps and mysteries that are slowwwwwwly uncovered. I thought last week was good but usually they follow that up with more inane bs that means nothing. I'm constantly on the verge of giving up but like when I had 2 Kings and couldn't fold despite knowing I was going to lose, I feel like I'm too invested to give up.

24... rocks as usual. Still the best show on tv.

Medium. For some reason I always enjoy this show.

CSI/CSI: Miami. Visuals in HD are the main reasons to watch. Plus laughing at David Caruso for the accidental humor aspect, he's such a knob.

Friday Night Lights. I feel like I shouldn't be watching these high school kids drinking, having sex, etc... but it's enjoyable.

Shark. Gotta love James Woods.

Sitcoms:
How I met your mother. One word... Barney
The Class. Not sure why I watch it but it has improved since it's start. Wife likes it.
Christine. Funny, they're bringing it back next week.
Rules of Engagement.
The Office. Wife hates it, I love it.
Earl. Almost always funny and inappropriate.
30 Rock. Love Alec Baldwin's character and of course, Kenneth the page.

Reality/Game Shows:
Survivor... so far rather blah... next week they're supposed to mix the tribes up. It's been completely one sided so far. Maybe this will breath some life back into this show that feels like it's on life support.

Amazing Race All Stars. All Stars my ass. This show ranks high on the suck factor this season. Just give professional reality stars Rob and Amber the million and cancel the remaining episodes. This is right up there with Amazing Race Family Edition for most pathetic Race.

Deal or No Deal. Usually funny and Lisa (#3) is awesome.

Smarter than a 5th grader. Makes me feel stupid and is too slow. I'm probably done with this one. I don't remember learning any of this stuff in 1st through 5th grades. I thinking I was learning to tie my shoes or something at that age.

That's all, thanks for reading. Got some opinions? Please feel free to comment.
