3-29-2006 (boring title, but what the hell)

Shows watched since last blog :)

Prison Break (By the Skin and the Teeth) - Prison Break is the most unbelivably unreal show, even more so than 24. But it's so much fun and I'll watch just for that reason. Pretty good episode, even if you know what the outcomes are going to be. We'll see how Michael can work his escape plan now that he's lost a bunch of the map (due to a burn)

Daily Show (3/28/2006) - Laughed really hard when Stweart started quoting the bible during a firing from Fridays in 1982 (I swear this sentence makes sense if you saw the show.) Jason Jones reported on Denmark actually FROM Denmark intsead of in front of a green screen. This made for a nice recurring gag on the show. Fareed Zakaria (I have no idea if I spelled that right) was on again and he's a solid guest who's entertaining AND informative.

Oh, we cleared our DVR of Jeopardy last night. Yeah, we record it. You can squeeze Jeopardy down to 17 minutes if you don't watch the commercials or the interviews and it makes you smarter.

Cranky Geeks (Episode 2) - crankygeeks.com - This is John Dovorak's IPTV technology show. Heres my thing with Dovorak. I hate him on TWIT because he's loud, obnoxious and pretty much always wrong. But on his own show where he gets to decide where he's going, I actually like him and think he's pretty insightful. I really didn't like the one guy who was a big-business apologetic who thinks AT&T is in the right to force a tiered Internet and that Apple is in the right to not license the iTunes DRM to other providers having an effective monopoly on online music.

Nazi Expedition - I watched this National Geographic show on how the Nazis tried to prove they were the Aryan Race using anthropology and going to places such as Tibet. It was interesting. Hitler was a messed up guy, but I think Himmler might have been even more wacked out.

Diggnation - Episode 38 - Live from Reno. Kevin and Alex get REALLY drunk in this episode. Actually, maybe a bit too drunk for my tastes because they have a hard time keeping on topic. More so than usual. But I'm okay with these rediculous types of shows every once in a while, but I think they're going to need to another tea show after this one.

geekdrome - Episode 18 - With guest star Scott Klopfenstein of Reel Big Fish. One of the funniest episodes talking about one of the most disgusting sounding things ever (no I didn't check.) If you're curious, you can go to the geekdrome forums and check it out, but don't. If it's even close to as bad as they said, you don't want to see it.

dl.tv - Episode 47 - Basic tech show with some funny commentary.
