Jeff -

American Gladiators returned this week with some cool new challenges, a new Eliminator course and new gladiators (including the two champions from last season). It was great watching the return and it will provide many weeks of Monday night entertainment.
We’ve got a new Gladiator-esque fascination called Ninja Warrior. It’s on G4 a lot (we tend [...]

DWTS Bonus: Brandon & Brittany’s Paso Doble

Jeff -

When I wrote about the Dancing with the Stars results show last night, I mentioned the amazing paso that came from two of the competitors in the junior division. I found it on YouTube this morning and had to post it. These two are in the 13 and under category. You know, in about five or six [...]

DWTS Season 6, Week 9: Semi-Finals

Jeff -

Suddenly nine weeks are gone and we are at the semi-finals. It was a very close competition tonight with some great dances, as well as a surprising clunker. This week each dancer did two dances that they picked out of a mirror ball at random. As has been usual lately, there’s one ballroom and one [...]

MTV’s The Paper

It was another two dance night with the competitors just a week away from the semi-finals. The ballroom looked great, but the Latin had nearly everyone a little bit off. This week is also the first time in any season that the competitors have been allowed to do lifts before the freestyle.
Here’s the rundown of [...]

Fake HDTV, Why?

Jeff -

Here’s something I don’t get about some networks that have HDTV channels. Why do they insist on stretching the width of programs that were not shot in HD? I see this a lot on TNT, TBS, Food Network and HGTV to name a few. They’ll take a show that’s shot in 4:3 aspect ratio (example [...]

DWTS Season 6, Week 7: Ballroom, Latin & Inujry

Jeff -

Quite the night in the Dancing with the Stars ballroom! Everyone had to do a ballroom and a Latin dance this week so everyone was working hard. For Crisitan it was a little two hard as he pulled a muscle midway through his samba and ended up going to the hospital.
Here’s the rundown of tonight’s [...]

DWTS Season 6, Week 6: Two Dances

Jeff -

The great thing about getting past the half way point is that now it’s two dances per week. For week six, the stars had to do a dance they had not done yet as well as participate in a country-themed group dance.
Here’s my take of tonight’s dances, in order of performance:

Jason & Edyta: Jason did [...]
