Did anyone catch this last night? The first story was kind of hokey (the acting sucked) I thought, but the second one was the absolute SHIT! Any thoughts?
"Pool Boy"Detroit Lions! 3-5! I am proud to declare my team "Not the worst team in the NFL, not by a longshot!"
I totally agree. That second one doing the double-twist ending was dope. The "loser screws up again, but this time for keeps" plot is a classic from the old twilight zone (most notably in "the librarian" with Burgess Meredith), and it was nice to see it again here.
I'm also sold on Forest Whitaker as host, after being somewhat skeptical at first. Maybe it's the lazy eye.
EDIT: I orginally thought the ending would be that the "something inside you worth redeeming" would end up being his liver, or other interal organ/gourmet alian food. Buit that had also already been kind of done in the original Twilight Zone.

Usher turned in a good performance, and his character proved beyond loyal to the death. 10-12.
Moe pretty much summed up the Chosen ep, so I will say I admire Busey for turning in a performance that both made me WANT to root for him AND told me there was no point at the same time. 11-13.
