Making a list…

February 5, 2008 – 10:01 pm

..but don’t worry, not in a scary Jacob sorta way.
To say I’ve been mentally overwhelmed by the premiere of Lost is an understatement. I’ve not been a loss for words; in fact, I have so many that starting to write them down proved a challenge. Throw in the Super Bowl and the Beanpot tournament here […]

They Call Me Mr. “Lost”-Tastic

February 1, 2008 – 12:31 am

If you’re looking to slake your Lost thirst, you’ve come to the right place.
If you want to read about the Season 4 premiere, check out my recap.
For anything and everything Lost, check out my Lost Central. More goodness than you can shake a Dharma stick at. Even the Oceanic 6 can’t keep this resource secret.
Such […]

Dude…I’m an Uncle

January 27, 2008 – 8:39 pm

The Dude’s tired. Winter always gets to me, that New England phenomenon of “41 and grey” that lands atop Boston sometime just before Thanksgiving and stays through the start of baseball season. Just saps the energy, breaks the will, and sends the Dude towards Jack Daniels.
But The Dude has a better reason for his exhaustion […]

Ray of (Free) Light

January 17, 2008 – 10:37 pm

When I bought my Playstation 3, I really didn’t buy it for the games. Oh sure, I play games on it, and quite a bit (though primarily on weekends only), but I really wanted to get in on television and movies on Blu-Ray. I had an inkling Sony would win the high-definition battle, and paying […]

Bank(er) On It

January 6, 2008 – 8:29 pm

Desperate times here at the Boob Tube Mansion: on my television right now is Deal or No Deal, and that’s about the best option I’ve got going for me right now. Although, if I am a patient little Dude, in approximately forty-five minutes I can see the relaunch of American Gladiators, so really, what do […]

The Boston Boob Tube Dude

December 27, 2007 – 8:37 pm

A hearty welcome to all of you that have wandered over from boston.com, where yours truly was featured on its homepage this afternoon. Yes, I’m from Boston, so for the lot of you who come on a daily basis, that particular mystery is solved. (I’ll leave other mysteries, such as “When does he sleep?” and […]

How To Celebrate the Holiday Weekend

December 21, 2007 – 6:42 pm

You can roast some chestnuts on an open fire, of course. Or you can order yourself some premium Boob Tube Dude swag. Personally, I’d go down the road less traveled. To prove my point, I’ve modeled a hat for your viewing pleasure.

Smokey ‘Em If You Got ‘Em

December 18, 2007 – 10:49 pm

First thing’s first: I hadn’t seen this Lost Season 4 trailer until an eagle-eyed reader of mine pointed it out. So check it out. Not a lot of new stuff, but what’s new is excellent. I think we now know five of the six who get off the Island. Which five? I’m not telling. Yet.
But […]

You’ll Be Tiding

December 17, 2007 – 12:23 am

The plan of attack between now and the New Year:
1) The Lost blog will be going strong. The next mobisode features Walt in Room 23. Color me excited. Like, nipplingly excited.
2) The “Top Ten Buffy Episodes Ever” Retrospective. That could run anywhere between one and ten separate entries. Now that I’ve typed it out, it […]

Boob Tube Tired (Tired!)

December 4, 2007 – 10:24 pm

The Boob Tube Dude is exhausted. Like, Hurley after participating in the Ironman Triathlon tired. Like, Peter Petrelli after trying to grasp BC calculus tired.
So, another day without a Chuck Wee-View or a Heroes recap. I know, I know, all six of you are crushed.
I’d give Chuck a 6.5/10 and Heroes a 5.5/10, with “Generations” […]
