CSI and Without a Trace are manditory viewing in my house as well. Throw in South Park and Simpsons that I haven't seen.
Anyone seen "Cold Case" and if so, whats it like.

Bigger fan of the news. We watch KPIX since it's the Letterman lead-in and despite the fact that Dana King is seriously annoying. (I hope she doesn't ever Google her name and read this)

Ja, I have to catch the late nite airing anyway since "24" will be on.
Believe me, I'd tape stuff except I NEVER get around to watching it later. (cf. Smackdown)

What exactly was your Monday night routine while you were recapping? And you can assume I mean those glorious days when BOTH Raw and Nitro were on, and you KNOW I'm talking about those 3-hour Nitros.

Rob asks Dave and Ric if they want to go backstage to play Hungry Hungry Hippos and Flair and Batista immediately bail. Flair wants to be Green. Man, EVERYBODY wants to be green. Except the girl in the commercials. She wanted to be pink. That either means that the ad agency was sexist or that she was communist. Of course Hungry Hungry Hippos is a rather capitalist game isnt it? No self respecting communist would play Hungry Hungry Hippos. Except Stalin. He LOVED Hungry Hungry Hippos.

If that's an affirmative, then...I'm very very sorry.
In the old days, Nitro was on at 5 and I'd do it live, take an hour off, then do a rough draft of RAW at 9 and go back over it after the show was over. TNT going to a split feed killed that for me. I'd usually start with Nitro, then either move to RAW as it came on or stick with Nitro if I wasn't too disgusted. RAW would HAVE to be done off the tape, since I was more worried about getting the details - Nitro got easier and easier to gloss over. When I worked graveyard shift, I'd just take the tapes to work and do them there (which had the added advantage of me pretending I was getting paid to write) - usually work would be slow enough that I could get everything done before end of shift - or, better yet, before somebody on dayshift came in and saw me watching wrestling on a TV. When I worked DAY shift, I'd usually stay up all night - that didn't work so well when I was doing reports three nights a week, which is why Thunder didn't last so long. THEN I'd get work schedules where I wouldn't work Friday, which is why Smackdown often got pushed back to Monday for a while. I think if I hadn't gone back to graveyards, I would have quit a LOT sooner than I did. Towards the end there, I'd pretty much gotten it down to three hours of recapping to do a two hour show (TNA PPVs included). Of course, I'm working days NOW, so there's really no way in hell you'll see recaps from me. Hey, if I quit my job.....oh, wait, I need that paycheck. Ask me after I win the Lotto. ;-)Originally posted by Big Bad

OH and did I mention there's a "Homicide: Life on the Street" marathon on MLK Day (Monday) on Court TV? Not here? Well, I did now!

Tony Shaloub is one of the most underrated actors on the planet. The guy is amazing. How someone managed to successfully pitch the idea of a European-style detective show (i.e. closer to Poirot or Miss Marple than, say, CSI) with an Obsessive Compulsive and affected lead to the USA Network I'll never know. But I'm thankful.
I've been surprised that no one's mentioning Monster Garage. I've always liked watching people who are good at what they do (from Iron Chef to the Woodwright's Shop) and Monster Garage has the advantage of a major "Gee-Whiz!" factor. As much as I don't generally like "Reality TV," this show always entertains.
