I heard a wee bit of newsworthy news nothing MAJORLY exciting but a couple of Lost season 6 titles to get the blood flowing a bit
6x01/02 - LA X
6x03 - What Kate Does (Kate ep)
6x04 - The Substitute
6x05 - Lighthouse (Jack ep)
by the sounds of it a fair few old familiar faces return and are vital to what happens, honestly I can't wait at all.
SWANS.SUBMARINES.TIME.LOCKE.FEBRUARY.
No word on Hung.
Family Guy delayed til November; 2 episodes air November 9th
8x04 - Brian's Got A Brand New Bag... another Brian/love/gf story AGAIN
8x05 - HannahBananna... Stewie goes to see Hannah Montana I REALLY hope Miley Cyrus DOESN'T guest star.
Peep Show ends this week.
that's pretty much all I have to stay since nothing else of interest is going atm.
I'm sure I'm going to finish season 1 of fringe and start the unit when I'm finished with King Of The Hill though

teleteleteleteleteletele
Late september is just around the muller crunch corner and I can't wait!!
Seth McFarlene is slowly and surely taking over all cartoon airtime that there is with new Family Guy, American Dad AND Cleveland Show coming out Monday 28th.
Following episodes updates:
Road To Multiverse - 8x01 [Sept 28th]
(Slider's Parody) Brian and Stewie use an out-of-this-world remote control to travel through alternate universes, including a post-apocalyptic world, a parallel world run by dogs and humans obey, a world run by "1980s" bullies, an existence reminiscient to Robot Chicken, and many others.
Family Guy - 8x02 [October 5th]
Lois finds a lump on her breast and goes to the doctor to test for cancer. The tests come back benign, but the doctor looks at her family medical history and reveals that Lois is Jewish. Peter takes to the family’s newfound faith eagerly, but changes his tune when he is visited by the ghost of his father.
ALSO - here's a list of other script/episode titles to come:
* "Something, Something, Something, Dark Side"
* "Brian's Got a Brand New Bag"

The Cleveland Show pilot has LEAKED and was pretty funny, a good intro to the show, Rallo is funny in that boondocks riley type way and jnr's one liners really made me laugh, nice to see McFarlene still has that 'everything he touches to gold' ...or at least silver, it has real potential, I can't wait for more.

ROLL ON SEPTEMBER!
ROLL ON SEPTEMBER! To quote my bebo blog last year!
In no way do I find it sad or depressing I'm still doing/watching/being the same man I was last year. More - I find comfort in it.
It's been a FAIRLY long time since I posted any TV details or anything and September 28th is just around the corner so let's see what I've got.
HEROES - VOLUME 5 [REDEMPTION]
PROMO POSTER:
I know, I know, you've given up on Heroes, the last half was total craptrap and it dashed any hopes or revival but the more I see, the more I can't HELP but get excited over what's to come...with T-Bag joining the main cast as super-villian boss [FINALLY giving Sylar a bit of a backseat] but seems to have the power to 'move dirt' sorry, "Earth Mover" which...isn't very flattering. That guy from Star Wars who played Darth Maul, he's Scottish will be playing a knife villian. Ando will get a love interest, Peter meets someone new at the hosp, Claire goes back to school AGAIN (so expect roomates/school shit going on there) and there's more fun with Sylar and a baby, Parkman gets a new cop partner and Ernie Hudson, the black guy who played warden in Oz (and who's in countless other things) is joining as recurring character too!
Who knows but it sounds like they're trying to start anew and get their arse into gear but we won't know until September 29th with the 2 episode premiere.
Episode titles as follows:
4x01 - Orientation
4x02 - Jump, Push, Fall
4x03 - Acceptance
4x04 - Ink
4x05 - Hysterical Blindness
4x06 - Tabula Rasa (also a Lost ep title)
LOST

FAMILY GUY:

SEASON 8 WILL FEATURE 'SOMETHING, SOMETHING DARK SIDE' sometime this year. (Guest starring: James Woods) The DVD release is set for December 22nd this year so, sometime before then, but it will make the perfect X-Mas present :D
The Star Wars Episode VI: Return of the Jedi parody will be entitled "We Have a Bad Feeling About This;" also, due to the few Family Guy characters remaining, the specials will also feature characters from American Dad and The Cleveland Show.
James Woods will also appear in a special two-parter "Whodunnit" episode.
"Road To Multiverse" will be a Brian/Stewie episode parodying the TV show SLIDERS.

It's been confirmed now by Maurice LaMarche that the voice cast have signed contracts for 26 BRAND NEW FUCKIN EPISODES OF FUTURAMA

the further south we go, the hotter it fuckin gets [OLD UNPOSTED BLOG]
I WROTE THIS BLOG A LONG TIME AGO AND NEVER GET ROUND TO POSTING IT ABOUT MY TIME IN BLACKPOOL - ENJOY!
WELL it HAS been a long time, HASN'T IT?
caps lock off
yeah I think it's about time for a long overdue update on the sitch you ation
well what's been going on?
I went away to blackpool for a couple of days which basically left me bankrupt to the bone (hey, doesnt that sound like a song Airbourne would make??) since I such a nice guy n all and it was Jonny Queen's 19th I basically paid for his trip and such but aye, it was good - took the wheelchair with which was a BIT of a downer at the pleasure beach but whatever got over it, went on stuff, the infusion was class, but too short and all embarrassing 15 quid a pop mid-ride photographs that I didn't buy I really had a pretty good time. The streets are literally paved with hotels and ours cost £50 a head for 2 nights which wasn't bad really! Despite the fact it seemed like a deserted old couple's run-down 6-storey house...which the caretaker insisted was more packed during 'peak times' but it didn't really stop us, they had a bar in which we forced the old man to sit behind for 5 hours each night whilst we bought pint after pint and shot after shot so aye, it was good. We got there and the woman handed me the key and she was like "oh you look like a strong strapping boy so you're on the top floor", "...Ha HA!" I stated with the old trademark "fuck sake, god hates me" stare but after the old switcheroo with Naomi's room keys, we found ourselves not so far up after all. :).
Complimentary breakfast was kinda ropey, decided I'd go the full hog the first day, and it did look pretty inviting but I have to say fried tomatoes really didn't agree with me and needless to say I didn't have breakfast the next day.
BTW for any reason you were wondering and this might be a shock to the system but Blackpool's pleasure beach REALLY isn't wheelchair friendly...honest! And so it was a hike and a half TO AND FROM AND UP AND DOWN every fucking ride we went on, kinda put a cramp on the full day, pun definitely intended! But I got myself a cheeky very expensive hot dog so it was all gold.
In between all the scams and shenanigans and 30p stuffed animals that cost you a tenner to try and win it was pretty fun and I got sunburned to fuck since I'm pretty much Nosferatu except without the looks
but I will say Valhalla is the business.
We also went to Louis Tussad's but it was all a bit fake, I was promised to meet the President and he really wasn't in the mood for talking. Also I'm sure I saw a 'token terrorist' yknow Turban, Beard, 'kill the infidels' look in his eyes, funnily enough he didn't even get a name-tag like the others! sheer favouritism.
ANOTHER OUTRAGE was that old Abe Stinkin Lincoln was there but he didn't even have his hat! total fuckin bullshit btw what's Lincoln without the hat?! It's like Whoopi Goldberg without the penguin costume! Absolute rip.
Oh, we also did the horror waxwork bit too...SEE RANT ABOUT FUCKIN STAIRCASES ABOVE. The scariest thing about the whole fuckin thing was the walkin!
All in all but a good time down south, disappointedly no mexicans and the english really don't have the moustaches to compare but it was all gravy!

PB & J ust plain boring
PRISON BREAK: After last week's god awful return I wasn't really expecting much to be honest and it didn't give me much to expect... but instead of creating the last few episodes to be a powerful and triumphant end we just have the same palava is before with characters doing nothing... not only have they planned the 'family card' twist...if it can be so called it also turns out Sara's pregnant too...maybe with Krantz' love child :O
but honestly it just seems like they're hitting every cliche they can before the end, it's not clever, or shocking or even interesting anymore between the half an hour conversation of "WHAT" Scylla is and how it works etc just bored me to tears it was better when it was the company's 'black book' and not just an 'eco-friendly' opportunity...
it's boring. As usual they had t-bag spouting some stupid shit again this week, this time about elephants to the Indian embassy as a distraction only to have a bunch of US agents take him away in a van, beat him up and kindly give him a ride home.
Best line of the episode: "You could end up in PRISON buddy?!!!" "....which one?"
Mahone gunned some company fools down and that was about it.
Self never brought anything to the table at all...
Christina was as annoying as before as well as her ass-lick lackey who WELL wants to be Rob Lowe.
I just wish they'd get this dull and pointless Scylla crap over with then follows death of Christina by Krantz, T-Bag betrays the guys (who didn't see that coming?) and kills Self, Sucre comes back and kills T-Bag (as T-Bag tries to kill Lincoln) and Mahone lives happily ever after.
THE END.
Prison Break you let me down this week again.
In the world of OTHER TV.
Lost is back on Thursday! And so is Daniel, So I ASSUME... It's a DANIEL EPISODE! Maybe we'll find out where he's been since he fucked off during Dharma Days and since THE CONSTANT with Desmond and Daniel was one of the best in Season 4 i really hope that next week's THE VARIABLE does justice as well!! But whether or not it comes close to Dead Is Dead we'll see ;) Who knows maybe we'll get luckily and Illana Iguana will die that's what you get when you stand IN THE SHADOW OF THE STATUE :D Just a wee realisation that this episode will be the 100th episode of LOST. So maybe something MAJOR could happen cause of this... but I doubt it.
Eitherway - Thursday = episode 5x14: THE VARIABLE which means next week is 5x15: FOLLOW THE LEADER (rumoured to be a Richard ep) but who knows. And then the week after (May 13th) is the double episode finale; THE INCIDENT. Which I think is when we'll see the 'PURGING' of Dharma land by Ben junior and ALLL (most of) the dharma folk die as well as some finale style twists and no doubt a bitch of a cliffhanger that will leave me bitching about it right here, until it comes back NEXT FEBRUARY....groan.
In more groans...South Park is half-over until OCTOBER (ANOTHER 6 month wait!) though I have to say I have been fairly satisfied with the season so far!! Fishsticks probably being my favourite and the latest Fatbeard being a close 2nd and while Pinewood Derby wasn't everything I was hoping for it still made me laugh and there was no GENUINELY unfunny episodes like the Britney episode or Lice Capades which really missed the mark for me but yeah I'd say an improvement over last season already! See you again in October, South Park.
Family Guy - Season 7 will only have 16 episodes (which actually is an improvement over the 12 in Season 6) but this means its drawing to a close (4 episodes left)
As follows:
7x13 - Stew-Roids
Stewie starts going to the gym with Peter after he gets beaten up by Joe's baby daughter Susie, but just when it seems that his hard work is paying off, Peter reveals that he's been giving him an anabolic steroid. Meanwhile, Chris begins dating a popular girl at school, only to see her popularity subside.
(Sounds HILLARIOUS right from the get-go, I just hope that the Chris subplot doesn't get in the way and is strong enough from not letting the episode down like it kinda did in the Long John Peter episode)
7x14 - We Love You Conrad
After drowning his sorrows when he learns his ex-girlfriend Jillian is getting married, Brian discovers that he has hooked up with The Hills star Lauren Conrad. Brian wants out of the relationship until he realizes that Conrad may be the perfect match for him, if only he is willing to let Jillian go.
(HAHA I love Jillian, and Drew Barrymore in FG so I hope this sees a return of her more often again)
7x15 - Peter's Progress
Peter learns from a psychic through a palm reading that he had a fascinating past life as Griffin Peterson, a dignified gentleman who vied for the love of Lady Redbush from 17th century England, ruled by the fierce King Stewart, to the newly founded American colony of Quahog.
(FGs fairytale episodes are always brilliant from the Fan Mail ep to the Family History and Star Wars ep all of them are sheer classics so I'm sure this one will go down just as well!)
7x16 - Three Kings
Peter imagines his friends and family in three of Stephen King's most famous works.
Stand by Me parody - Twelve-year old Peter, Quagmire, Cleveland and Joe travel along a railroad track on a journey of self-discovery.
Misery parody - Brian is injured in a bad car crash only to be "rescued" by his "number one fan," Stewie.
The Shawshank Redemption parody - Cleveland and Peter become fast friends in prison.
(Season finale! I have been DYING for this episode for so long now and a Shawshank parody sounds just perfect to me, I love Stephen King and I love Family Guy so I'm sure the mesh will be superb! *Bit disappointed with the 'Stand By Me' though - purely cause I hadnt seen it let alone HEARD about it until now but hey, if it brings the laughs I dont care!)
And that's it for SEASON 7 and family guy until OCTOBER (More and more it seems like October is the month of the year this year!) I think this season has just been fantastic and kicked the absolute crap out of last season for sure!
Here's a wee taster of things to expect in SEASON 8
FG: Empire (Something, Something, Darkside) is set to be the season opener
Cleveland FINALLY leaves (gets his own show) and is REPLACED by a brand new friend ("Jerome"??)
Stewie and Brian have an episode, shut in a room without any cut-aways, flashbacks or props.
Lois will have an abortion.
James Woods will be back for the THIRD time.
Meg explores her sexuality.
Chris and The Evil Monkey will have a based episode.
Lois steals one of Meg's boyfriends
HERE IS A LIST OF WRITTEN SCRIPT TITLES - THOUGH SO FAR THE ONLY SET/CONFIRMED EPISODE IS 'Empire':
7ACX01 "Family Goy"[12]
7ACX02 "Brian's Got a Brand New Bag"[13]
7ACX03 "Ode to '85"[14]
7ACX04 "Quagmire's Baby"[15]

7ACX15 "Go, Stewie, Go!"[26]
7ACX17 "The Splendid Source"[27]
7ACX22 "Episode VI: The Great Muppet Caper"[10]
YOU'RE WELCOME!
but honestly it just seems like they're hitting every cliche they can before the end, it's not clever, or shocking or even interesting anymore between the half an hour conversation of "WHAT" Scylla is and how it works etc just bored me to tears it was better when it was the company's 'black book' and not just an 'eco-friendly' opportunity...
it's boring. As usual they had t-bag spouting some stupid shit again this week, this time about elephants to the Indian embassy as a distraction only to have a bunch of US agents take him away in a van, beat him up and kindly give him a ride home.
Best line of the episode: "You could end up in PRISON buddy?!!!" "....which one?"
Mahone gunned some company fools down and that was about it.
Self never brought anything to the table at all...
Christina was as annoying as before as well as her ass-lick lackey who WELL wants to be Rob Lowe.
I just wish they'd get this dull and pointless Scylla crap over with then follows death of Christina by Krantz, T-Bag betrays the guys (who didn't see that coming?) and kills Self, Sucre comes back and kills T-Bag (as T-Bag tries to kill Lincoln) and Mahone lives happily ever after.
THE END.
Prison Break you let me down this week again.
In the world of OTHER TV.
Lost is back on Thursday! And so is Daniel, So I ASSUME... It's a DANIEL EPISODE! Maybe we'll find out where he's been since he fucked off during Dharma Days and since THE CONSTANT with Desmond and Daniel was one of the best in Season 4 i really hope that next week's THE VARIABLE does justice as well!! But whether or not it comes close to Dead Is Dead we'll see ;) Who knows maybe we'll get luckily and Illana Iguana will die that's what you get when you stand IN THE SHADOW OF THE STATUE :D Just a wee realisation that this episode will be the 100th episode of LOST. So maybe something MAJOR could happen cause of this... but I doubt it.
Eitherway - Thursday = episode 5x14: THE VARIABLE which means next week is 5x15: FOLLOW THE LEADER (rumoured to be a Richard ep) but who knows. And then the week after (May 13th) is the double episode finale; THE INCIDENT. Which I think is when we'll see the 'PURGING' of Dharma land by Ben junior and ALLL (most of) the dharma folk die as well as some finale style twists and no doubt a bitch of a cliffhanger that will leave me bitching about it right here, until it comes back NEXT FEBRUARY....groan.
In more groans...South Park is half-over until OCTOBER (ANOTHER 6 month wait!) though I have to say I have been fairly satisfied with the season so far!! Fishsticks probably being my favourite and the latest Fatbeard being a close 2nd and while Pinewood Derby wasn't everything I was hoping for it still made me laugh and there was no GENUINELY unfunny episodes like the Britney episode or Lice Capades which really missed the mark for me but yeah I'd say an improvement over last season already! See you again in October, South Park.
Family Guy - Season 7 will only have 16 episodes (which actually is an improvement over the 12 in Season 6) but this means its drawing to a close (4 episodes left)
As follows:
7x13 - Stew-Roids
Stewie starts going to the gym with Peter after he gets beaten up by Joe's baby daughter Susie, but just when it seems that his hard work is paying off, Peter reveals that he's been giving him an anabolic steroid. Meanwhile, Chris begins dating a popular girl at school, only to see her popularity subside.
(Sounds HILLARIOUS right from the get-go, I just hope that the Chris subplot doesn't get in the way and is strong enough from not letting the episode down like it kinda did in the Long John Peter episode)
7x14 - We Love You Conrad
After drowning his sorrows when he learns his ex-girlfriend Jillian is getting married, Brian discovers that he has hooked up with The Hills star Lauren Conrad. Brian wants out of the relationship until he realizes that Conrad may be the perfect match for him, if only he is willing to let Jillian go.
(HAHA I love Jillian, and Drew Barrymore in FG so I hope this sees a return of her more often again)
7x15 - Peter's Progress
Peter learns from a psychic through a palm reading that he had a fascinating past life as Griffin Peterson, a dignified gentleman who vied for the love of Lady Redbush from 17th century England, ruled by the fierce King Stewart, to the newly founded American colony of Quahog.

gimmie a break...
Well after 4 LONG months PRISON BREAK finally returned. And since now it only has 6 REAL TV episodes left (excluding the '2 bonus episodes' and 'THE FINAL BREAK' hour-long future episode planned for DVD release in July) After that, as far as the world, plot and characters of PRISON BREAK is concerned it's done dinner... So you'd THINK or at least I thunk that with this curtain call and more than enough time to ponder, plan and film 'HOW IT'S ALL GOING TO END' they'd have some impetus or drive or inspiration or SOMETHING to make their (season 1, season 2 and EVEN mostly season 3) great. Perhaps its just my way of being but my expectations completely fell short of anything because instead of giving STARVED obsessed and distraught prison break fans a refreshing shot of visual adrenaline (PB STYLE!) we were treated to the same old, same old stale pandering around "10 guys in a room with fuck all tdo" scenario...a glossy new opening scene...some flashy camera-work and even flashier shirts but as far as REAL MEAT on the table, it was bare bones.
Hadn't we ALREADY established 4 MONTHS AGO through that 'gripping' cliffhanger, that the buyer and company agent was ACTUALLY Lincoln's mother!?!
Although it seemed like NONE of the guys seemed to grasp this at all spending half an hour gawking at a computer and each other saying "REALLY?!" (As if they, like us, couldn't believe the writer's would chose such an obvious, tiresome cliche route either...but there we have it.
So half of the episode was spent trying to make 'mom' look as viciously mob-boss as possible while still retaining some sort of motherly charm...the result being...an annoying mess. Where's Angela Petrelli when you want her to sit and look cold..yet caring.
The other half I dont even know...ONCE AGAIN the writer's felt they needed to GIVE MEANING to the other characters (which they did) but in doing so...well, what a mess...
I guess they thought T-BAG needed ANOTHER reason to keep going (originally at the start of season 4 it was pure vengeance, a vendetta against michael - which was plausible as well as pleasing) next they felt they totally wanted to RE-INVENT T-Bag turning him from a cold-blooded paedophile with speckles of remorse to a fully-pledged, good guy, a respectable business man...Cole Pfierer(sp?) LOL although that was completely ditched too...and then Lincoln took out some of his teeth remember?!...but that was all done and forgot about by next week. Well since Michael's mother has been introduced why not... T-BAG'S MOTHER!! (WHY NOT?!) turns out she's alive (even though their had been no mention of her AT ALL until right now, 6 episodes before the end) she's safe and sound in an old folks mental home...OR NOT (woah, twist) the general has APPARENTLY taken her, LJ, Pam(?) and that photo of Self's we see ocassionally (but dont really care about) as an insurance policy but more than that a pathetic reason for the writers to justify their hanging around til end time.
So what really happened? Not a lot.
The general got double-crossed and then "died" but obviously didnt before they later made it obvious that he didnt...hooray, oh yeah an unknown, unimportant agent lackey shot Michael's car window mid-sentence (tenner's bet we'll never see him again) that was about as exciting as it got for them, as they spent the rest of the episode seeking refuge in a van...talking about various MOM shit before an unconvincing agent 'i smell an extra' who i will dub as 'MEAN GUY' shows up, "SHOCKINGLY" killing the driving and trying to take the van back to COMPANY HQ...the racing drama that follows consists of Michael and Sara trying to wedge a van door open....yass....
The other guys raid a mosque or pray area or somethin which just totally seemed like US writers tryin to take an untasteful jab at muslims to me...usually T-Bag's quips are quirky, sly, cheeky racist remarks but the whole chicken blood thing just went a bit too far...especially since mahone even got in on it too LOL.
Anyway they force their way in and guns are found and a firefight ensues with T-Bag...finally scoring the only good line of the episode when the muslim takes out a gun and he retorts "NOW THAT'S NOT VERY HEAVENLY IS IT?" ...10 mins left and it was the first thing to make me smile.
Oh yeah and Lincoln meets up with mom-boss instead of confrontational family reunion theres some petty back and forth...lincoln goes along with what she says but in the end tries to go back and ends up with a sniper at his head...END
will he die next week?
No - I'd say not.
Instead of a welcome back thrill-ride I gots not a lot
It's hard to say I'm impressed when theres so little to be impressed by, it's heartbreaking.
Sorry for the bitch and moan about Prison Break
I'll gladly stop when it promises too.
More general less MOM please oh and as a wild-stab in the dark guess SELF is STILL working with the company I CAN FEEL IT because "that guy ran away" bullshit a mile of
he's a snake and a liar
KILL HIM, KILL HIM
THAT IS ALL.
