T V

[DIEHARD]

I always wanted a TV thread on the Titans forum, to discuss all the best and worst TV shows and follow the schedule through, comment on TV shows and movies as well as recommend great TV shows to other members.

But remember to give spoiler warnings if you are gonna give away plots.

At the moment I've really enjoying The X Files on SCI FI, although I wish they'd STOP skipping around different seasons out of order, something they do with many TV shows.

Also started watching Terminator Sarah Connor Cronicles on FOX8 last night.

Ultimate Fighter 8 - Fuel TV Sunday from 8pm

This show sorts out the men from the boys. It's cage fighting for those who don't know, this particular series invites 32 unknown fighters to compete for 2 contracts (lightweight & heavyweight) in the UFC. They all stay in the same house, each day they train with a real UFC fighter and each week some are chosen to fight each other until 4 finalists are left. The 4 finalist then get to fight at a main event for a 6-figure contract in the UFC if they win!

TUF is an awesome show..been watching it from season 1.


Some of my favorite tv shows past and present:

Dead like me
dexter (my fave show of all time)
that 70's show
scrubs
the mighty boosh (2nd fave)
contender
the ultimate fighter
house (not so much the newer ones)
pulp sport
the dudesons

Some shows I love are...

Kenny vs Spenny - Two Canadian friends compete against each other in challenges such as who can be homeless the longest, who can committ the most crime, who can wear an octopus on their head the longest etc.

Entourage - One of my all time favourite shows, about a star and his Entourae and Hollywood. Not only a great show but as a hollywood wannabe, I love the show.

Babylon 5 - The best sci fi show ever and one of my all time favourite shows.

Scrubs is an old favourite. Just started getting all the seasons on DVD.
I enjoy The Office, the American, haven't seen the English version.
Black Books is great, Red Dward is another old favourite. Also The IT Crowd.

Of the current crop, I like How I Met Your Mother. Gotta love Barney!
Been enjoying The Big Bang Theory too.
Two and a Half men isn't too bad either.
I don't mind a bit of Bones either.

the office and red dwarf are top shows. alot of people dont like the american version of the office but i actually prefer it to the pommy one.

I too and an avid viewer of The Ultimate Fighter, some of the pranks played this season went to a whole new level. I thought the piss in the salad was bad enough but geez what happened next. The fighters this year didnt look too great im not expecting much of them in the UFC. How great was that Juni (spelling?) bloke? Absolute legend.

Just finishing watching tonight, in this episode Kaplan and Lawlor voluntarily take shots of each others piss. And later Kaplan asks Lawlor to punch him in the head bragging he can't be knocked out, Lawlor does so and knocks him out.......

But I prefer the fighting part of the program, not the big brother style crap....

Junie? Are you serious? That fool is his own worst enemy, he doesn't have it mentaly he's a loose cannon. Physically, he can fight - but still over rated IMO.

Phillipe Nover will take out the Lightweight for sure, one of the few natural fighters in the house.
And Ryan Bader should take out Light-Heavyweight. Vinnie's Judo is unbeatable but he is too useless on his feet, you can't rely on ground work alone to win..... Unless your Royce Gracie ofcourse!

The season finished ages ago howcome you're so behind?

haha kaplan still denied he was knocked out, i think the footage spoke for itself.

Junie is what people will remember the season for, of course noone likes him but a name goes along way sometimes and everyone sure knows his.

[Ryan]

Not sure why we're behind, I know the semi's are done, but the finals haven't been fought yet though have they?

True, Junie will be remembered, but for the wrong reasons. He won't be remembered for winning fights, which ain't good for someome who wants to go pro. He needs a phycistrist.

Anyone watch Phonejackers on Channel V? A must see!

The new series has just started.

Also been enjoying some surprisingly good episodes of Parental Control on MTV. One episode this geek who thinks he was a knight and a massive RPG nerd, who thinks he can cast spells and rides on dragons. Well his girlfriend was put up for parental control... and... well I won't spoil how it ended.

Also in a recent episode, it was funny because this girl's dad's boyfriend was part of the show and helped select the dates. God it was hilarious especially the banter between the daughter's boyfriend and her dad's boyfriend...

Mate that's the funniest skit. How he is offering prizes of cash monies. And it's always some stupidly low pathetic amount.
