TELEVISION Are you paying attention?! LEXX: The greatest television show ever created. Star Trek! Star Trek Wiki - Memory Alpha TVparty! _____________________________________ Q: When did "critically acclaimed" and "rave reviews" start meaning "absolute shit?" _____________________________________ Q: What kind of retard does it take to watch WWE, or whatever pro-wrestling moronic activity? _____________________________________ [040428] There used to be a television network called TechTV that had programming that focused on electronics, computers, and technology in general. Its shows were well presented, and contained plenty of mature intellectual content. Then they got "microsofted" by another network called G4, which targets adolescent wet-dreaming idiots. So basically they acquired TechTV, pretended to maintain its programming, and then slowly but surely erased any remnant of it, except the shows that targeted adolescent wet-dreaming idiots. So now what we are left with is exactly what G4 was before, a stupid brainless television network thats all about video games and other mindless bullshit. You uninformed people reading this now are probably thinking I sound like a hypocrite, since I have other things here indicating my love of video games and other mindless things. But all that means is that you are ignorant and short sighted. Replacing good intelligent programming with mindless adolescent nonsense is a really bad idea, but as many of you know, is not unique to TechTV's horrible defilement by G4 (Comcast...) Someone out there is trying to make idiots of us all. It's like they think we should all be equal or something. Well I have news for those people: all men are *not* created equal. I guess it's the idiots time to take the stage though, but it won't last very long, don't worry... So anyways, Fuck You G4. Fuck You Comcast. (Commiecast heheh) Oh, and Fuck You microsoft also, just because. _____________________________________ [050127] I just had the misfortune of watching Conan the Barbarian on the SCI-FI channel... I'll try to make this short so I hope you know the movie, and if you don't then whatever. First I have to say it's the worst I've seen yet from the you-know-whats that are changing shit based on what they think you should see. Yeah so we all know that they "edit for content and for time allotted," but I just have to wonder who edited this version and if they have watched or even comprehend the film. Some memorable cut scenes: When Conan "discovers women," they cut the part when he lays her down, looks at her funny for a second, then jumps on her. There's no skin in that scene, no nothing, and it's also one of the funniest parts of the movie... gone. Next, they COMPLETELY cut the scene where he runs into the crazy witch chick, tells the story about how he is looking for the symbol with the two snakes, then throws her in the fire after she starts turning into something while they screw. Sort of an important plot element and foreshadowing... gone. Then, at the end, just in time to implant an angry memory of watching the movie (and by that I mean sci-fi channel in general) they totally cut the scene where Conan decapitates Thulsa Doom and throws his head down the stairs. Probably the most important plot element of all, the climax, revenge for beheading his mother... gone. I wish I could remember more of them, but it was so chopped up, I felt like I was having blackouts. FUCK YOU SCI-FI and fuck all of you you-know-whats who think everyone is as evil as you are and want to make them miserable. YOU are the fucked up ones. Get over your hang-ups and leave the rest of us alone. _____________________________________ [070321] Every time I watch something on The Discovery Channels, I feel like I'm back in kindergarten. And The Learning Channel is now all reality shows? At least The Hitler Channel is consistent. And if I hear "Nat Geo" one more time I'm going to scream. _____________________________________ [080108] They are showing all 5 Star Trek series on 4 different channels on cable now, so I got a DVR. Finally I don't feel ripped off paying for cable, because I can't possibly keep up with 5-8 hours of Star Trek every day! [080605] I get the impression that SpikeTV is for big manly closet fags. I still can't figure out why they even show Star Trek at all, because it is a show for intelligent people, not neanderthals. Maybe they are fantasizing about Klingon penis ridges, or maybe the holographic doctor in holographic leather chaps. _____________________________________ Since when does a sci-fi channel (for you dummies, thats short for science fiction) mean "reality show?" Or Crossing Over with John Edward? Are these people insane? How did this happen? _____________________________________ [080605] I am loving the M*A*S*H reruns like I can't even tell you. It's like I'm re-learning all the things I used to know about how people should live and work and treat each other. In the middle of all the bullshit around me it's like a ray of sunshine. More people should watch it and remember why we do what we do. If you're one of the annoyed people, don't bother, you won't get it. Not that you won't enjoy the show, there's enough mindless jokes, sex, and anti-war sentiment to distract you. _____________________________________ [080814] Hey Discovery, great job with the new programming lately. Pushing average people to think about complex things is the way, not allowing dumb people to feel smart. _____________________________________ [080824] Hrm, I just saw an ad for RAW (machohomo wresting nonsense) on the SCIFI channel. _____________________________________ [080922] Hey Suzuki, you need to fire all the people who let the word "navvie" into your television commercial. _____________________________________ [090619] Sci-Fi channel has a new name? Hrm, maybe because it's not a science fiction channel anymore? Here is a definition of "Syfy" btw: http://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/syf - Well done, dipshits! Good thing it's easier to text on a phone though, one less character for the retards to type. _____________________________________ [0907020] Why do television channels change the list of stars in films? For example, I just saw in the listing, National Lampoon's Animal House on RetroPlex, with John Belushi and Kevin Bacon? Kevin Bacon is clearly a popular actor, but was far from a significant role in that film. Another recent example was on Lifetime (yeah, I watch Lifetime if there's a good film), when every time in the segue after the commercials, they were saying "and now back to Ghost World, starring Scarlett Johansson" ...WHAT? I could understand if they mixed it up a bit and mentioned both, but nope. Ghost World is Thora Birch's film, Scarlett had a barely supporting role as her annoying bitch friend... _____________________________________ [090720] Our country is Falling Down. Nice job ION by the way, entirely cutting out one of the most important quotes of the film: "We are not the same. I'm an American, and you're a sick asshole" WTF is that? Where does the hilarity end? Maybe they should call it "Dumbing Down" when they put it on the air, since they screw up the whole thing by chopping the fuck out of it? Sick assholes... These concepts need to be seen and understood by everyone. Real people should rent it or watch it in it's REAL and unfucked original form. But then that applies to any movie, doesnt it? _____________________________________ [090807] Tosh.0 is absolutely mopping the floor with G4's Web Soup... Chris Hardwick? Sorry dude, not funny.
