Shhh…. That is the sound of silence.

So TWITTER.  In the Midwest and especially Milwaukee it seems like there isn’t a Twitter crowd.  I’ve found a few but it isn’t like this is San Fran.  Over the past couple of weeks I’ve twittered a bunch.  I’ve mentioned it to a few people here just to see if it gets traction.  I don’t think it is.  For me it probably took because I could watch the tech-stars out in San Francisco but it is also a bit addicting once you do it.  But hey, I’m just trying to push the Forth and Back name.  Don’t kid yourself, I have to feed Back’s ego for another year until she marries me and can’t leave without a lawyer and paperwork. Back hates paperwork.

Speaking of Twitter, I saw several tweets from this past week about how great Lost was.  Now, maybe it didn’t live up for me because I heard it was great but it just wasn’t that wicked.  I mean yeah, Sayid, but he was in it sparingly.  Yes, Ben looks great taking names and kicking ass but beyond that nothing was really revealed.  Pause.  Sure the smoke monster returned but… meh.  Cool graphics but… I dunno. I’m waiting for more.  I’m hard to please.

THE BIG BANG THEORY.  I just don’t want this show to die like Studio 60.  Go watch BIG BANG THEORY. Also, pay attention at the end.  You need to pause the DVR right after the credits because the creator, Chuck Lorre, puts “vanity cards” that are a split second long.  You can read them if you pause it.

In a VERY STRANGE turn of events I just received a tweet from the indomitable Andy Ihnatko of the Chicago Sun Times plugging The Big Bang Theory as I typed this.

I could complain about the weather but I’m in Wisconsin so that seems cliche.

In response to Back’s TV Set complaints… yeah they were pretty valid.  But you have to check out the Slut Wars commercial at the very end with Seth Green.  It is so funny that Back nearly cried.  That is all for this edition, please tune in next week when one of us gets drunk.

2 Episodes of Lost

27 March 2008 · Leave a Comment

So we watched last week’s Lost episode tonight finally and after it was over I thought Lost is more satisfying when I can watch two eps in a row because that one… not that good. It was then that we came back to the living room to watch the second one that was playing right then…

Were they not supposed to be laying Lost straight through? No reruns? There was no second episode on the DVR, it was a rerun of the first ep of the season…

On the plus side I got caught up on The Big Bang Theory. Good stuff. The Lost that played a week prior to Easter… mediocre stuff.
