Easily one of the biggest releases of the year was this film and easily the biggest disappointment so far of this year is this film. If you missed where we posted an early draft of the script then here is the link. Which as you can see the aliens, fridge and everything were involved in this script. It wasn’t just Lucas being his usual self. Someone else actually thought it was a good idea.

A lot of reviews I’ve read have said that if you are a die hard fan then you will enjoy this one all the same. Let me tell you that you will not. This doesn’t offer any of the usual thrills that you get. The one-liners are all lame and the story is still trying to work on me to make me think that it is anything less than terrible. Indiana Jones does not deal with aliens.

Does anyone else realize that this franchise has just hit an all time low that only certain others have. Usually only horror movies make the leap to space with Leprechaun and Jason coming to mind but now an action movie has. And of all franchises, they choose Indiana Jones to lead the space action movie trend, come on. I know it isn’t quite space themed, but the aliens are close enough for me. You might as well throw Indy on a NASA jet and make him land on Jupiter and fight the space martians for the rights to gain Kobe Bryant in a trade.

Chef Ramsay heads to New York, New York to help out a struggling seafood restaurant called the Black Pearl. The restaurant lacks communication because of the three very different owners and their styles of work in “Season 2 Episode 5″ of “Kitchen Nightmares”.

This episode was funny and interesting throughout because having three owners of a restaurant made it three times the usual crap we get from an owner of these restaurants. Especially one in particular who keeps giving Ramsay crap and being rude to just about everybody.

The restaurant actually looks really good to begin with but having the three owners makes this a little bit harder to run it. Ramsay changes things and makes them go with just one guy to run it and see how it works out. Even till the end though, when everything changes for the better, that one guy is still giving Ramsay crap. I can’t wait for the catch up show to see how everything is going with the restaurants and we get to this one. 

My girlfriend Kelly was appalled though by something they added to the restaurant which was one of those grab snatch machines but instead of stuffed toys and such, they had lobsters in it. I thought it was funny but she didn’t.

The detectives investigate when a couple are accused of abusing their foster child in “Season 10 Episode 1″ of “Law & Order: SVU”.

“SVU” returns with a case that is kind of slow but plenty on one surprise after another. The kid in the episode reminded me of this kid that I take care of at work and let me tell you, this kid is the devil. I am not exaggerating when I say this kid has bitten people and turned over tables that are three times his size. So since this episode brought up work in my mind, during the weekend when I should be thinking of anything but that demon child, I didn’t enjoy it as much.

I also didn’t enjoy the new district attorney that the show has. She looks like she stepped out of a fashion shoot as a hot secretary or something. She has no personality at all but maybe she just has to be in a few more episodes to develop one or something, but as of right now, I don’t like her. We need a good rape case.

The summer activities of the Dunder Mifflin staff are highlighted, including an interbranch weight loss competition and following Pam at the Pratt Art School in “Season 5 Episode 1″ of “The Office”.

“The Office” has been one of my favorite comedy shows for the past couple of years. It’s tradition in my house to quote lines from it, including “that’s what she said”. Bring up things Dwight does in topics of conversation. Every Christmas for the past three years my mom has sent me an “Office” calendar. Yesterday, my girlfriend Kelly gave her high school history classes a homework assignment that was to watch the season premier of “The Office” and then tell a joke from the episode the next day.

The season 5 premier was good “Office” but not great “Office”. The weight loss storyline was funny throughout the show and Ryan coming back to fill in for Pam were the highlights of the hour long episode. Michael was acting like his usual offensive self throughout. Even when he had a chance to ask Amy Ryan’s character out on a date, he does something that had me shaking my head.

There are some surprises throughout the episode and the one at the end, which I will not reveal, had Kelly in tears. Toby also makes an appearance and all I can say is poor Toby.

After a look into the future, Nathan’s shooter is revealed, while Hiro receives an important message from his father in “Season 3 Episode 1″ of “Heroes”.
It’s not too much to ask for a show, that gave you a really good and interesting first season, to keep giving it to you. I guess for the producers and the writers of “Heroes” it is. After a long wait and promises that the third season would be better than the really bad second, “Heroes” is finally back and crappier than ever.

This episode had me bored to tears and it didn’t even bring up story lines that weren’t finished yet in the second season. Nothing exciting happens and the acting is horrible. Masi Oka as Hiro and his encounter with a girl quick on her feet is the only thing that got me through this episode. The scenes with Claire and Sylar were also well done but both of these stories were only a fraction of the episode. Everything else was filled with boring talk about the future and a future Peter looking very mad.

I also noticed that they stole an idea from the USA show “The 4400″, which was also about ordinary people with superpowers. That makes me mad as hell because a crappy show like “Heroes” continues to be on the air while “The 4400″ was a really good show but USA just canceled it, even though it had good ratings and it’s last season was it’s best. “Heroes” needs to think of its own crap to deal with and not steal from a show thats not on anymore.

I haven’t seen the second episode yet, even though I know it’s already aired, but I can’t say I’m looking forward to it and maybe it will get better. All I know is, judging from this season premier, “Heroes” is not a good show anymore.

Sam and Mel intend to reveal her pregnancy to her parents after a quiet dinner. However, when Sam misses the train after having a drunk girl throw up on him, the dinner starts becoming increasingly unlikely in “Season 1 Episode 1″ of “Worst Week”.

I cracked up pretty hard at the previews for “Worst Week” and you know if you laugh at the stuff they put in the previews then it must be at least a pretty good show. It is a pretty good show and I see it getting even better if CBS keeps it around.

It’s “Meet The Parents” for television but it has its own quirky humor that kept me laughing almost every minute. Kyle Bornheimer, the one having the worst week, is really good at trying his best not to look like an ass but failing every time. Kurtwood Smith is also good, basically playing the same role he had in “That 70’s Show”, but without that horrible laugh track.

My only major problem with the pilot is that it went a little too fast. I know it’s only a half hour show but, as they do in most pilots, they tried to cram too much in so little time. I’m guessing that this won’t happen in the next episode and it will run a lot smoother. In time, this could be my new favorite comedy show.

An associate from Michael’s past hires him to assassinate a woman named Jeannie, who is about to become a very rich widow. As Michael investigates, the situation grows more complicated in “Season 2 Episode 8″ of “Burn Notice”.

This season of “Burn Notice” hasn’t yet lived up to the first season and overall it hasn’t been very good. It’s almost like the second season of “Heroes” was to its first. All the fun, action and comedy that was in the first season is gone. Well, its still here, it’s just not as good.

In the first season, each episode ended with a cliffhanger that would torture you because you had to wait a week to find out what happens next. This season, each episode ends on a dull note, with Michael getting a little bit closer to finding out about the people who burned him. So far this season, the show hardly focuses on Michael’s burn notice, and more on the lame plots of each episode. I could understand if the stories in each episode were as good as last seasons but their not.

This episode is another downer and probably the worst so far this season. Tim Matheson who is in the episode, also directs, and lets just say he should stick to his day job. The camera shots are horribly done and the editing makes “The Aviator” look like “Citizen Kane.” The next episode is the last of the season, even though USA has more episodes, which they are saving for winter. I guess so we won’t have to wait a whole year for more but if the next season is going to continue this way, I might not care to wait at all.

To avoid bankruptcy, Vince agrees to make an appearance at a sweet 16 party. Drama is still devastated by his breakup with Jacqueline and Ari ups the ante with Adam Davies in “Season 5 Episode 3″ of “Entourage”.

I’ve been worried about “Entourage” lately because HBO made us wait over a year for another season and the first two episodes were really disappointing for me. They weren’t so horrible that I thought about not watching the show anymore but they were some of the most uninteresting episodes of the show ever and not what is to be expected for a show that has been gone for a year.

Episode 3 however gets the show back on its feet. Most of the episode focuses on Ari and his rivalry with Davies which starts off kind of lame with a long car chase but ends badass. Vince continues to not get any work so he decides to make an appearance at a big sweet 16 party for some big pay. The best moments of the show are toward the end at the party where Drama does something that had me floored and Eric gets a call thats good for him and not so good for Vince. This episode got me excited for the show again and looking forward to the next.

Cameron and Sarah take the initiative to investigate a nuclear power plant. Meanwhile, John loses interest in academics, but becomes more popular at school with a new friend’s help.

“Season 2 Ep. 2″ of “Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles” continues to make the show more watchable with interesting writing and acting. The first couple of episodes of the show were all about action and trying to look cool while being associated with the “Terminator” franchise. Towards the end of the first season and now in its second, “Sarah Connor Chronicles” is trying to do its own thing, away from the storyline of the franchise. Maybe its because of the upcoming new “Terminator” movie but the show is trying to make itself stand out now apart from the movies.

The show has really good acting, even by actors who you only see once in an episode. I’ve noticed that the show has had some really good character actors and I hope they continue that. This show has had some better acting out of its robot characters then any of the movies, and yes, that includes Arnold. The premise of this episode is all about the struggle for a power plant and if the robots will take control over it. More to do with the characters than the action is fine by me when it is done to great effect and this show does it right.

Now in the lower 48, the contestants take on the task of monster trucks in “Season 1 Ep. 4″ of “America’s Toughest Jobs”.

Finally, the contestants are out of Sarah Palin territory and in California. For a while there I thought all the toughest jobs were just going to be in Alaska. The episode starts off with that guy who said he was homeless as a child talking about being homeless as a child and the only thing that got him through it was playing with his toy monster trucks. He weeps like a baby and tells the camera that he is going to kick ass in this episode. Of course he doesn’t, and the ones who actually kick some ass, are the women as usual.

We find out that it’s pretty easy to drive a monster truck. As long as you know when to stop and go, which is pretty easy since you have lights to tell you, then you can drive one. This seems to fly over the heads of all the guys who try to be tough including the crying guy. We learn a little bit more about Rie that puts the crying guy’s story to shame. We also learn that a first year monster truck driver makes twice as more than a high school history teacher which made my high school history teacher girlfriend Kelly’s mouth drop to the floor.

Mostly the guys who try to act all tough are the ones who end up in the bottom 4 and the one who goes home will not surprise you but will give you a good laugh, especially when you find out at the end what they are up to now.
