Kings of Prosperity

Yeah, I'll probably tape One Tree Hill, although it's running out of steam fast. I just don't see where it can go after the final game of their high school career.

"One Tree Hill, Season Four: The Fork Union Year." The girls can attend the women's finishing school two miles down the road.

 

In the immortal words of Homer Simpson, "When was the last time Barbra Streisand cleaned out your garage? And when it's time to do the dishes... where's Ray Bolger? I'll tell ya! RAY BOLGER... IS LOOKIN' OUT FOR RAY BOLGER!"

 

Here, here. I'll raise my glass to that.

 

I just watched it. It was semi-funny. Best parts were the "Start Me Up" Muzak in Mick's elevator and when Mick called to his dogs swimming in the pool: "Charlie!" "Ronnie!"

 

I'd give it 3.5 out of 5 stars. Funny is spots. I liked the Reservoir Dogs walk parts I and II with news members added for the second. There is a lot of potential. Donal Logue?sp? is hilarious.

 

If this turns out OK ... and like I said, I enjoyed the opener ... it will be the first time I can stand Donal Logue. In anything.

 

Shot,

You can't tell us truthfully you didn't enjoy Logue as the greasy taxi driver in MTV's early 1990s commercials. He also was great in Grounded for Life. That along with Titus were two brilliant shows that Fox discarded way too early.

 

Honestly, Lamar ... he's made me cringe every single time I've seen him up to last night.

 

Did you see Tao of Steve, Shot? Logue was awesome in that as a 30-year-old having a hard time growing up.

 

That, I didn't. Hey, the guy can act; he just makes me cringe.

 

I watched it tonight, and I will give it a few more episodes. If I watch it after that, it might be because I loved In Case Of Emergency so much. Knights of Prosperity would be sort of a warm-up and all.

I read that the OC is leaving soon, or some such thing. I've never watched and don't even know the basic story line.

Friday Night Lights was wonderful. That show just keeps getting better. The kid they picked to be the modest quarterback from a troubled family is becoming my hero with each new episode. I root for him just like I've rooted for so many prep athletes over the years. You just want them all to prove the naysayers wrong and to overcome the demons they all face in one way or another. Of course, there are a lot of broken hearts. I'm hoping the show doesn't lead me down the same path. I want glory.

 

I like In Case of Emergency because Jonathan Silverman's in it.

I don't like it so much because David Arquette's in it.

Greg Germann ... I can take him or leave him.
