Entertainment Report
Issue #1
9/20-26/12
This week was the beginning of the fall season, kind of.
CBS ran a little behind because of Big Brother ending when it did (Yay Ian!) and it seems like NBC started airing The Voice earlier then anything else. But either way it's the new fall season.
Here's my issue. Maybe I'm just busy or getting older but not much this fall really caught my eyes or attention. I have no interest in X Factor, if The Voice was on a different night and didn't conflict with so many things on the DVR I would get into that. There are many shows that I just don't have interest in even getting into at all.
Right now the show schedule consists of Glee, Dancing with the Stars, Big Bang Theory, Mike & Molly and maybe something else thrown in once in a while. With wrestling, football and just family time, those are all I seem to have time for right now. That doesn't mean I don't have opinions on other things as well though.
That all being said, let's get into this issue...
When the season started last week, I'll admit I was a little scared. The Graduation episode in May was emotional and we said goodbye to alot of the major characters. Now in a new time slot, I kinda feel like there was new life blown into the show. I love the fact that the storylines are split between Ohio & New York, it makes it more exciting to watch.
The positives are the Rachel/Kurt pairing, the addition of Marley and the fact that show just seems to be leaning on it's past to progress all the storylines. The negatives are the lack of Finn, Santana (Skype doesn't count) and other graduating seniors. Also I'm not a fan of Brody or Unique.
Best Song: Crazy/U Drive Me Crazy
Worst Song: 3
Best Cameo: Puck
Best Moment: Marley's reaction to Jake dating Kitty was a sad moment but so realistic.
Worst Moment: The whole Britney on stage lip syncing was to over the top even for her character.
Grade: B+ (Britney 2.0 > Britney)
With the Packers playing on Monday Night Football the game was on our ABC station here aired for the premiere episode didn't air till 1:30am. So I did get to watch before work on Tuesday morning. Well worth the wait, what a show.
First of all, I was just as surprised as everyone else that Tom Bergeron won the Emmy for reality host. He deserves it, just didn't expect it. So congrats to him!
Second, I personally love the new scoring system. The half a point score actually helps and makes it harder to get a perfect score.
Third, with all the talk about judges on other reality shows, it's good to know that after 15 seasons the judging table is exactly the same on DWTS. Very nice to see.
Finally, this is the all star season. It's really the only reason I'm watching. I'm looking forward to great dancing and awesome entertainment.
Monday
Best Couples: Emmit/Cheryl, Joey/Kym, Sabrina/Louis
Worst Couples: Pamela/Tristan, Kelly/Val, Bristol/Mark
Tuesday
Why is the results show two hours? I didn't even watch the whole show at all.
Bottom Two: Drew & Anna, Pamela & Tristan
Say what?? Why were Drew & Anna in the bottom two? At least Pam & Tristan went home. They don't belong on this show at all.
New Items
After 11 years and all the craziness I think I'm done. Heading into season 12 there are three new judges and they weren't even on the road for the auditions.
When J-Lo and Steven Tyler left, I knew it was going to be trouble. Then Mariah was named a judge ad I had issues with that. After Nicki Minaj was announced I was thoroughly annoyed. I have this extreme hatred for Nicki Minaj, matched only by my hate for Rhianna. At the point when Keith Urban was announced as judge #3, as much as I'm a country music fan, if I'm not going out of my way for Blake Shelton on The Voice, Urban won't bring me to watch Idol.
This year might be it for me. I can't believe that there will be a Carrie, Kelly, Daughtry or even a Phillip Phillips this year to draw me in,
This might change come January, but at the moment I think i'm skipping this season.
I'll keep this short and sweet. I DVRed the awards, watched the opening monologue, it sucked. I saw the first award and went to bed. When I got up and looked over the list of winners and there was only two awards for something I watched this past year:
Tom Bergeron-Dancing with the Stars-Outstanding Host for a Reality or Reality Competition Program
Glenn Weiss-65th Tony Awards-Outstanding Direction for a Variety, Music or Comedy Special
That's it.
I don't watch Modern Family, Game of Thrones, Homeland, Breaking Bad, Boardwalk Empire or really anything else that won. It reminded me of the days when Frasier won every year and I never got into that show either.
I just wasn't into it at all this year.
Upcoming Shows
Real quick note, the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles comes back on Saturday morning this week and CJ is super excited. Between this, Pound Puppies & Saturday Morning Slam, weekend programming has drastically changed around here.
Comic Book Men in a guilty pleasure for me. I'm a big Kevin Smith fan and since last season, I've gotten to know the Smod gang via podcasts. So I'm looking forward to the show's return on October 14th.
That's it for this week. I think I covered alot today. Come back next week for more of my thoughts on the wonderful and crazy entertainment world.
This week's podcast is going to the FTW podcast. It is a really funny wrestling show and defintely worth a listen. Also this gets the honor because they retweeted me during Raw this week so yay for them.

This match was just sad to be honest. I love Eric Young but not this one. There was an alright back story with the Main Event Mafia and World Elite, that really didn't make much sense in hindsight and the end of this one was just sloppy. Also this was the end of the Legends Championship in general.
Austin Star defeated Sonjay Dutt, Maverick Matt, Jay Lethal, A-1, Zach Gowen, Kazarian, Sirelda, Shark Boy, Alex Shelley, D-Ray 3000, Johnny Devine, Elix Skipper, Short Sleeve Sampson. Norman Smiley and Petey Williams
I'm not sure what's worse? The match or the fact that Steve "Mango" McMichael was the guest referee. The match was sloppy and just bad. I mean Abyss was lit on fire and it was almost like no one care. Mango was the worst ref in the history of wrestling. His slow counts made this match even harder to watch.
This match still annoys me. It's not even the fact that Jeff Hardy won and turned heel. I just thought this was a blah forgettable. It also doesn't help that no one remembers that match anyway. It's more remembered for the "10/10/10" reveal. I'm sorry but I HATED the Hogan/Bischoff turn and I was just never a fan of the Immortal storyline. It also didn't help that the whole thing didn't make any sense on the night in general. 
Jay Lethal defeated Sonjay Dutt, Chris Sabin, Alex Shelley, Curry Man, Shark Boy, Super Eric, Petey Williams, Johnny Devine and Jimmy Rave
