I'm a huge fan of Wipe Out. I love seeing those people eat it bouncing off those big bouncing balls.

I didn't watch CBS for eons either.

I hate that "tick, tick, tick" promo of "60 Minutes" during Sunday NFL football. It always brings back horrible memories of "the weekend is over and I have to do my homework" Sunday night memories of my youth. And that was a long time ago. And I still hate it.

I got hooked on "Two and a Half Men" as any skirt chasing, beer drinking gambling guy might.

(Heidi Fleiss spent her time in the prison about a mile and a half from from my house.....true story)

I never watched "The Big Bang Theory" until CBS moved it to the slot after Charlie Sheen's show for the summer.


My wife and I haven't missed it on a Monday since we found it. And I went out and bought the first season on eBay to give an idea how much we liked it.

I thought it must be new, but quickly googled and found they had done at least thirty some episodes.

What impressed when watching the first season is that the writing and acting is nearly as tight as it is now from the very beginning.

One of the accolades that comes to mind for "The Big Bang Theory" is one that I also applied to "Seinfeld".....


If you try to explain what happened "in last night's episode" to someone, the telling might take as long as "last night's episode" took to air.

That's a product of good writing.

And the guy who plays Sheldon definitely deserves and will eventually win an Emmy.

It's not every day that someone (Charlie Sheen) can make a comeback playing themselves.

Sheldon's character is absolutely briallant.

I'm assuming you guys read the messages at the end of these (BBT and 2 and half men) shows? They are really funny and sometimes they get censored by CBS so you have to get them online. Guy's name is Chuck Lorre I think.

That is funny.

As a child, that sound meant it was getting closer to the time where we had to go get our school shoes so that my dad could polish them for the week. The fight for the showers then ensued, before our weekly game of knee-football in the living room began.

As for the show, my dad is banana's over it. He tells me that I should watch it, and I sometimes do when I remember to. The one guy's mom when she visited was FUNNY.

Good catch.

I've only recently tried to catch a few of the details after just realizing it's got some "Monty Python trailer" type stuff in the word cluttered screen.

Thus far I haven't been successful or diligent to track the details though.

Darn, my brother and I moved furniture to play knee football between our living room and dining room.

My parents never really cared until the night they were away and we decided we needed to chalk our field in the carpet.

Did you go with the nerf football, or the six inch "leather like" football? :-)
