24’s producer proud of last season!!

AddThis Social Bookmark ButtonBy fred | July 27, 2007

As would 24’s very own Jack Bauer, “Damn it!” What the hell is wrong them everyone!?? First it was Fox chairman, who wouldn’t acknowledge that last season of 24 was a disappointment, and now executive producer Howard Gordon goes even further into denial, declaring himself proud of it!!

24Can someone confirm me that last season of the show, Day 6 in the life of Bauer, was the one with a brain-dead President, papa Bauer and sons, so many plots that didn’t make any sense, and episodes in which the man, Jack Bauer, wouldn’t appear more than a few seconds, doing no more than sit in a chair, and wait??

Chuck is no Reaper!

Reaper vs ChuckTwo new shows, on different networks, and some similarities. This surely isn’t a brand new thing, but there’s been a few discussions about how The CW’s Reaper and NBC’s Chuck were “similar”.

Ok, when reading the main descriptions for those two, they don’t actually seem that similar. While Reaper is about a somewhat looser turning 21 and finding out his parents sold his soul to the Devil, for whom he must now work as “bounty hunter” for evil monsters who escaped from Hell, Chuck is about a computer nerd who somehow got all data from the only, and now gone, computer that held info from both CIA and NSA uploaded into his brain, and as such he must work with CIA & NSA agents.

Well yeah, there’s already a similarity here : both plots kinda suck. Although Chuck’s plot is by far way worst than anything else.

Chuck: It’s not what it looks like…

AddThis Social Bookmark ButtonBy fred | July 26, 2007

Chuck(PreAir) …and “look” is all it’s got.

Chuck is a new NBC show described as a “comedic spy thriller”. Its premises are described as being about Chuck Bartowski, a computer geek who happens to be catapulted into a new career as nothing less than the government’s most vital secret agent, when he accidentally opens an e-mail that was subliminally encoded with government secrets, thus resulting in Chuck unwittingly downloading an entire server of sensitive data into his brain.

Yeah. Sounds bad, and it kinda is, only worse.

Network presidents fighting

AddThis Social Bookmark ButtonBy fred | July 26, 2007

You know what, the new NBC show Bionic Woman is probably one of the most talked about of the upcoming shows, but that has pretty much nothing to do with the show in itself. And the more it goes and the more I learn about the show, the more I fear that not only it will be a crappy show, but it will be a quite popular one too.
Because face it, sometimes crappy shows are incredibly popular.

The latest news that got us talking about that show, though, has in interesting twist. The one promoting the new NBC show is no other than ABC president Stephen McPherson !

Traveler: Why the cliffhanger?

AddThis Social Bookmark ButtonBy fred | July 26, 2007

All viewers and fans of the great show that was Traveler now that, sadly, it is now over. They also know that the season/series finale was quite disappointing. And I was said before what pissed me off the most was that we weren’t given any answers really, only more questions!

Knowing that it was the “big finale”, why would they write it like that? Why slamming the door on the face of loyal fans that way?
Well, Creator/Executive Producer David Digilio gave same answers regarding this matter…

I don’t like Fox chairman…

AddThis Social Bookmark ButtonBy fred | July 25, 2007

Just a quick personal thought : I think I don’t like Fox chairman Peter Liguori. It’s not just that he’s one of those exec morons who love to pull great shows off the air after only four episodes aired, which by the way should be a recognized test to prove someone is unable to use his brain correctly and should be sent away from any decisions-making job.

Entourage - The good, the bad and the ugly

AddThis Social Bookmark ButtonBy fred | July 25, 2007

Entourage(S04E06) There are some people out there that seem not to like this season of Entourage, and as I told before : they’re wrong!

Entourage is a great show, not always but very often really funny, and always entertaining. I have not changed my mind, yet this episode was not one of the best I think. Some parts were good, some were great, and some were pretty bad!

The 4400 vs The Marked

AddThis Social Bookmark ButtonBy fred | July 24, 2007

The 4400(S04E06) So ever since this new season started, I complained that not only the main story didn’t move (fast enough), but also the show seemed to have forgot that it was called, and supposed to be about, The 4400.

Then came last episode, and it was all about the main story. And it was great. And not to stop there, now we have this episode, where not only the story keeps moving but we’re also full back on track!
