TV

by Calvin Robinson on September 29, 2009.

What happened to all the good TV shows? Is it just me or do ABC and NBC cancel good shows like nobody’s business?! Ugh, the American Television industry is frustratingly square.

I miss all these shows:

Pushing Daisies,
The Unit,
Journeyman,
Las Vegas,
Prison Break,
Reaper,
Scrubs

All I have left are:

Heroes – Getting pretty dry, but the new FlashFoward is pretty damn good – so that’ll probably take it’s place.
Lie To Me – Fun little show. A bit CSI-ish, but it’s entertaining.
House – Oh my GOSH is House back with a vengance or what! The new season kicked off with a bang. Loving it.
24 – Flopped in season 6, but pulled it back with 7! Waiting on 8, I think they have worked out their audience now.
Lost – Still got it.
FlashForward – Exciting new show. Let’s hope they make it past season 1.

Michael Jackson Tribute

I caught the final half of MJ’s tribute tonight. It was amazing, intensely moving. We Sky+’d it, so I’ll watch the whole thing at the weekend.

A touching tribute. It’s hard to believe Michael Jackson is actually dead. I have to admit the details in the last post on my blog, by my anonymous friend, may have been a bit of a coincidence, but it had to be posted – and it was out of no disrespect.

MJ’s ‘Dangerous’ was the first album I ever owned. I remember playing it over and over on my portable cassette player. I also remember my mum fast forwarding the scary parts of ‘Thriller’ on our VHS player, with the wired-remote control, when I was a child. I grew  up listening to Michael Jackson, and I am sad to see him gone. I was looking forward to seeing him next month.

Rest in Peace – King of Pop.
