bionic woman sucks

Yeah I'm watching it.

Cable not hooked up yet so I only get 12 channels.

Bad guy on his iPhone, he's holding it upside down, how can he hear the conversation if he is talking into the speaker?

You think it sucks now. My shows are dropping daily due to the Writer's strike. In a month or so its going to be re-runs and "reality" shows (where they get that name, I don't know, there is nothing real about them).

Here in NJ it is Inside the NFL with Costas - not a fan of Costas. He just repeats and repeats and repeats...

I like the Bionic Woman. I don't particulalry think of it as a remake anyway. Only thing that is the same is the name and the genreal concept.

If you wanna see something that sucks go watch a rerun of the original....talk about dated. The big BOOOINNG sound effect when she jumped....stupid.

She can suck a golf ball through a garden hose.

Hell, she can suck a basketball through a straw.

I really wanted to like the Bionic Woman, but just couldn't get into it. There are some new shows I really like.

My wife and I have really enjoyed Chuck and Big Bang Theory. Pushing Daisies is sort of cool in a Tim Burton sort of way. Journeyman is interesting, but I prefer shows where each episode stands alone... don't like feeling that if I miss a week I'll be behind in the plot.

Can I modify this a wee bit? TV SUCKS! Far as I'm concerned the writers can stay on strike forever...Gimme old "gunsmoke" reruns over today's pap with it's "Politically correct" messages any day or night of the week.

I mean...we should heed political messages within the "entertainment" we watch on the tube? Things like the NBC "green" football halftime?

Fug 'em! When it all goes high definition? At a homeowners cost of how much??? I may very well decide that this household can live without T.V.

After all, any "news" I need, I can find on the net. T.V.? When "entertainment" I watch makes me want to toss a brick through the screen, I should be willing to pay even more????

You guys remember "TV Brick"?
Big foam brick you throw at the screen during commercials and stupid shows.

Bionic Woman was bad first time around. Now if they did the $6 million dollar man remake, I'd watch it even if it sucked, out of respect for Steve Austin.

Maybe it's time you boys shut down the set and pick up a book.

Seriously. If it weren't for "Everest" and my wife's infatuation with the Disney channel I'd cancel the $60 a month and chuck that POS to the curb.

Not to mention I want to see the Patriots win another superbowl this year.

Everest, great show! I like the documentaries, where the reality they show is actually real. Actually, besides sports and the occasional auto race, that's all I ever watch.

Why (other than They Live) does it seem that media is constantly manufacturing government conspiracies intended to make us into (read: "keep us") cattle, instead of reflecting on the actual menticidal opiate effect (or the Idiocracy effect) that their product* has on the general public?

*excepting from "their product" programs such as Everest, Planet Earth... and South Park

God bless South Park. It keeps my faith in entertainment alive- SOMEBODY out there still gets it.
