Next Great American Band TV Show On Tonight...
Mood:  a-ok
Topic: TV Shows

 

TV and Movie Comics Listed Here!  Rock Comics Listed Here!    
So To Refresh Your Memory....
This Was 'Our Take' On
'The Next Great American Band'
TV Show on the Fox Network!
The 11-09-07 Episode
 
For those of you that missed the 11-09-07 show... The episode went from a 2 hour show to just 1 hour.
 
Thus each band called to perform did a cover of a song by Billy Joel. There were no original songs by the bands tonight as per previous performances.
  
This blog post is similar to our format on 'Our Take' Of American Idol Performance Shows that we do when AI is in season.

The following is 'Our Take' on the Night's Performances in Numerical Grading. Tina and I have our top two bands colored in blue font:

For those that missed our previous blog post on this TV Show:   HERE IS THE LINK For The 11-02-07 Episode!
 
Due to space limitations because of eight bands performing, the following are just a few notes from this nite:
 
I still enjoyed the way the Top 8 Bands were presented out of the Top 10 Bands. Each band was called up one by one to perform, leaving three bands at the last.
  
Only one of the last three was called to perform.... leaving the two bands that didn't make the cut not performing for the night.
 
The three remaining bands were: Rocket, the Muggs and Light of Doom. 
 
The two bands not called on to perform were:
 
The Muggs:  Which I had given a 5.0 (out of possible 10.0) and Tina had given a 4.5 so no surprise there...
 
and  Rocket: Which we were totally surprised us, as Rocket was both our #1 choices for performances last week!  I had given them a 9.25 and Tina had given a 8.0.
 
However, as Dominic Bowden, (the host of the show), said... both of the losing bands,  Bands #8 (the Muggs) and #9 (Rocket) had dissed the judges opinions at the end of the judges opinions.  Lack of maturity on their parts I thought.  However Tina pointed out last night,  since when did Rock n' Roll ever respect authority to begin with ?!
 
Funny thing is, that The Muggs once again dissed the judges with a thumbs down of their own after they weren't called up to perform... so it was fitting they didn't move on to the next round.
 
However Tina is totally dismayed that Light of Doom is going on to the next round... as she totally disliked their choice of song, performance, and in general everything about them! 
 
For those that are wondering, Tina and I are evaluating by the singing/instrumentals of both songs, their looks, and the
general perfromance, NOT  who are 'favorites' are at this point.  Similar to 'Our Take on American Idol', where we don't come down to 'favorites' until the end.
 
Next week:  The TWO Bands with the lowest vote counts won't play next week.... So No 'Results Show' like American Idol. Next week the performances are about.....??? Didn't catch that part, so if you heard or know, just post below...
  
Glad something is finally on Friday Nights for us! What's your thoughts on this show? Just post your comments below!
  
For those that are wondering what the 'tie-in' is for us... we have Rock Comic Books and Magazines for sale in our eBay Featured Store!

Beowulf

Today, November 16th is the release date of the adult fantasy film 'Beowulf' that also stars Angelina Jolie in virtual CGI form.

For those that enjoyed the movie, we Have Beowulf Promo Comics For Sale Starting @ $0.99 Plus Shipping!

For those curious about the movie... The Beowulf trailer is out and screening on different TV shows. If you missed it there are now 2 trailers and a TV spot. The links are at:

Beowulf Movie Trailer

Here Are Tina's Thoughts on the movie preview program she attended at the San Diego Comic Con on the movie:

Neil Gaiman and director Roger Avery gave Comic Con fans a first look at a 2-D trailer for the upcoming movie 'Beowulf'.

The digitally enhanced live action is their attempt to 'tell the oldest story in the English language', said Gaiman, 'with the technology we have today'.

To me it was a little creepy and alienating, but maybe Angelina Jolie in 2-D just creeps me out...

Jolie's part of what Gaiman calls his 'bull---- casting'. Gaiman continues with 'You know the game we all play, who would you cast for...??'

Holed up in Mexico writing the screenplay and drinking too much beer Gaiman and Avery speculated on their dream cast; Angelina Jolie, Anthony Hopkins, John Malkovich and Crispen Glover.  They were amazed when everyone said yes!

Well, in November we'll see if the the movie is a dream or a nightmare...

Meanwhile, you can formulate your own thoughts on the movie by checking out the movie adaptation in comic book format.  Just click on the SDCC Comic Con comic book Exclusive at the top left corner for a copy!

Due To The WGA Strike! 

 

 

 

 

Sad news for NBC’s 'Bionic Woman' TV Show fans...

The show has been forced to shut down production because of the writer’s strike.

The show, which is shot in Vancouver, Canada, closed filming on November 9th, over a month before its' scheduled holiday hiatus.

For Tina and myself, this was mixed news. 

Tina hasn't been thrilled with the show since it previewed at the SDCC at the end of July 2007. See our previous blog post for her review on the 'Pilot' episode, which was changed for actual airing after we saw it!

As for myself, I have been watching it each week, hoping it would get better. Tina has hung in there with me on this show but after this week's episode on 11-14-07 with the death of Antonio Pope, (played by Isaiah Washington), I should have had more feeling about the death of this key player.

Unfortunately I did not... and am beginning to realize that this show is not one that I'll be watching if and when the Strike is over in time to finish out the season.

This show did not place on Tina's or my Top 20 TV Show list in an earlier blog post, and it is time that we (or I) will stop blogging about it...

'Our Take" On The Survivor TV Show 11-15-07 Episode! 

 

 

 

Episode 9 (Whole #1509)

SPOILER WARNING - DO NOT READ THE BELOW IF YOU HAVE NOT SEEN THE EPISODE!

We both like the new opening credits where the 'merged' tribe members and the jury are the only ones presented!

By this time in the show, the earlier voted off survivors are be coming a 'dim memory' and don't need to be shown each opening credit IMHO.

Two teams of four were chosen for the Reward Challenge tonight, as there were only eight survivors left at the beginning of this episode.

This episode seemed to 'mark time' for me... can't put my finger on why...

At the Immunity Challenge only 4 survivors elect to play! Why? Because Jeff has tempted them with cheeseburgers and fries if they elect not to play.  So four elect not to play. Interesting which four figured they didn't have to play!

Everyone thought it would be Peih-Gee that would be voted out next, as she had seemed to take over Jean-Robert's role of being semi-nasty.

However she won the Immunity Challenge... so it can down to Frosti or Eric for the choice.

So the ending shows that 'Frosti Melts Away', which is the 'title' of this episode!

But wait! Jeff says they aren't through for the night!

And cut... to scenes from next week, but no clue to the 'cliff-hanger' ending for tonight!

Till next time...

Visitor To Our Blog Posts

But Earlier Today The

28,000th

Virtual Visitor Came To View!

We hit the 28,000th mark of visitors with approx 92,500 page views at 11:36 AM PDT today, November 15th, with a view of our  June 12th 2007 blog post titled 'More Femme Fatales'.

With the WGA Strike now in its' second week, we may be having more bloggers viewing our blog posts on TV Shows past episodes, as several TV Shows are expected to run out of new episodes in December! 

For those that are new to us, here is a little Background on our Blog:

This Blog started June 7th 2006 shortly after eBay announced the new blogging format.

July 15th 2006 we added on a stats counter as we found most viewers read but didn't comment and we wanted to know if we were being 'read'!

We also started expanding our pop culture topics as we found that more and more bloggers finding us enjoyed several of the TV Shows that we also enjoyed. Thus 'Our Take' on episodes on TV Shows that we watch was born! 

We want to thank ALL of you for stopping in and visiting our Blog today. If there are topics we don't discuss but could fit our pop culture - comic books related theme, feel free to add them below! 

Hopefully the WGA Strike won't last 'forever', and we'll be able to bring you more of 'Our Takes' on new TV Show episodes as well as comic book related posts!

To view our recent blog posts, just click on the 'squares' in the left column to view those topics!

Regarding our archived blog posts: Please be aware that eBay techs have revised the blogging format, thus our archived posts may be distorted to read... sorry about that but it is out of our control here!
