2013 Top 10 TV Shows
When I was creating this list, I had closer to 20 shows that I whittled down to 15. Then I finally got it down to 10. Please post what you think is missing and I can let you know if it was just outside this list. 1. Breaking...
The Hunger Games: Catching Fire
I read the book trilogy in about a week while the first movie was being filmed. I really enjoyed the first book, found the second one to be decent and thought the third book to drag on endlessly with a happy ending randomly tacked on as an epilogue. I...
Jackass Presents: Bad Grandpa
I have never seen an episode of Jackass or any of the previous Jackass movies. I know what they are about, but I have just missed out on that part of society. I found that concept of Bad Grandpa hilarious though. Johnny Knoxville is dressed up like an 80-something...
Gravity
I saw this movie as it was intended in 3D IMAX so I would feel as if I was in space with Sandra Bullock and George Clooney. The movie was quite impressive in that way. I never felt like I was watching a bunch of special effects. I felt...
Amazing Race: Unruly Camels
Teams stayed in Abu Dhabi for this leg where they learned it is a bad idea to drive straight up a sand dune and camels can be unruly if you dress them up. Come learn what Amy, Steve and I think about cars with eco-boost in this Amazing Race...
Amazing Race: Hot Times
I’m really late with this recap. This is from the November 10th episode, “Speed Dating is the Worst,” where teams traveled to Abu Dhabi and sweated a lot while arranging dates, sewing fishing nets, and riding around a race track. We also got to witness two alarming fashion statements...
Amazing Race: Sneaky Cab Stealing
Teams traveled to Austria in this Amazing Race episode, “Choir Boy at Heart.” There was horrible singing, cab stealing, and more shirtless locals. Come join the commentary of Amy, Steve and me in this latest recap....
Amazing Race: Cross Dressing
This past week’s episode, “Get Our Groove On,” took teams to Poland where they danced the polka or posed in some sleek leotards and fake beards. They also got to eat a lot of donuts and u-turn each other. Kim did talk about a task being hard, but sadly...
Amazing Race: Up All Night
This latest leg had teams hanging out in the midnight sun of Norway while they handled stinky fish, jumped from a bridge into the arctic waters, and did some lovely product placement for Ford trucks. I was most excited about Kim bringing back my favorite phrase about a task...
Amazing Race: Too Many Connections
This week teams spent a lot of time on airport drama before finally traveling from Chile to Portugal. Once there, the teams encountered fairly easy detours and a road block, which didn’t stop some teams from making silly mistakes anyway. Please join Amy, Steve and me as we break...
