LOST Season 6 predictions
3In anticipation of the last good serialized sci-fi show left on TV starting it’s final season tonight, I’d like to offer up my predictions for what LOST fans may anticipate over the coming weeks.
- The Oceanic 815 survivors will make it off the island, only to realize they left the coffee pot on and have to go back again.
- The meaning of Jack’s other tattoos will be revealed: stubborn, petulant, whiny, and self-righteous.
- The Smoke Monster will finally speak. It will be voiced by Gary Coleman.
- Hurley will say “dude” several times.
- It will be revealed that Jacob is actually Christian Shepherd’s More >
Talking lemons and porn stars: a small collection of 30 Rock parodies
0Okay, even though this season has gotten off to a rough start, 30 Rock is still one of my all-time favorite TV shows. And, given my documented fondness for Sesame Street, you can imagine how tickled I was to find this very clever send-up sketch, entitled “30 Rocks.”
I’m quite amused by the fact that Liz Lemon is in fact, a lemon. Plus, the Alec Baldwin muppet is just awesome.
I was also quite surprised to find out that 30 Rock had become such a pop-culture force as to warrant a porn parody. I haven’t seen the actual adult film, mind you (honest!), but this trailer for it is pretty damn More >
Whiskey, Dollhouse, and why everyone else on the internet is wrong

Better off Ted is the best show you’re not watching
1Were it not for a fortuitous trip to the gym a few weeks ago, I may never have watched Better Off Ted, a brilliant and hilarious show that somehow managed to wind up on ABC Wednesday nights. Ted is a workplace sitcom in the vein of 30 Rock and The Office, but with the cartoonish, crazy elements of those two turned up a few notches. Underneath the zany, sweet sitcom antics, however, lies a subversive and dark satire of work politics and the kind of mega-corporations that make everything from food to office chairs.
The action centers around Ted, the head of research at a giant conglomerate More >
Pretty sure I know why they fired Jeph Loeb from Heroes
1Dude, even I can't figure out what's going on this season
There’s been a phrase that I’ve been repeating over and over the past couple of weeks while watching Heroes on NBC. And that phrase pretty much goes like this:
“…the fuck?!?”
This season didn’t start out that bad. Not nearly as strong as the first season — which was damn good television up until the last five minutes — but at least as good as the second season, which was still watchable, if not excellent. Then, things started to happen.
“Seriously…the fuck?!?”
Here be SPOILERS if you aren’t caught up to last week’s episode, “The More >
A grown-up’s guide to Sesame Street for grown-ups
8Sesame Street is a wonderful educational program that’s been entertaining and informing small children for years. For parents of young children, it can be a great educational tool. It doesn’t hurt that it’s a children’s program that won’t make you want to throw your TV out the window, either. Chances are, though, that it’s been a long time since you watched Sesame Street — or your parents didn’t love you enough to let you watch it when you were a kid — so you may not be as familiar with the characters as you think. With that in mind, I happily present Random Rage’s grown-up’s guide to the More >
