Ramblings about entertainment and other things
Spoiler ahead
Number one rule of Top Chef: Never EVER use canned ANYTHING in your dish. We’ve seen people sent home for that before, and it happened again tonight. In spite of that, the wrong person went home.
Right now, I think Paul has the best shot of winning it all.
Wow! That was completely unexpected.
On tonight’s broadcast of Fringe, the “Making Angels” episode, the very last part of the show had two other Observers talking with one another. I won’t go into what why they were where they were, but I will tell you something… they named the Observer that saved Peter from the lake! His name is September.
Awesome!
Is there a Ferris Bueller Sequel? Sure hope so, because if this just ends up being a commercial for something I’ll be really disappointed.
Update: It’s going to be a Honda commercial. Thanks to Andy the TropicHunt.com Guy for passing that info along.

Happy New Year!
Haven’t been posting much, but I have been catching up on a couple of TV series that I’ve been meaning too watch. The latest that we’ve caught up on is Breaking Bad.
If you haven’t seen the show, here’s a brief description: A high school teacher named Walter White finds out that he has cancer, and probably a short time to live. After hearing from his DEA agent brother-in-law about the amount of money that people who make and deal in methamphetamine, and going out on a drug bust, he decides to make the drugs himself. He wants to do this so his family will have enough money to live on after he dies. He teams up with a former student, Jesse Pinkman, and they go into “business” together.
For some reason, this show is listed on Netflix as a comedy. Now, I think I have a pretty good sense of humor, and while the show does have some funny moments, I’d be really hard-pressed to call this a straight out comedy. In fact, it’s pretty brutal at times, and it’s not something to watch with young kids (language and adult themes).
It’s an interesting show. It’s amazing to see each characters transformation throughout the series. Pretty crazy, and more than a few things happen that will make your jaw drop. Despite everything these guys do, and what they making, you’re almost compelled to watch to see how (and if) they’ll get out of it.
By far my favorite season is season 4. I’m not going to drop any hints about what happens, but it’s not like anything I’ve seen. I’m usually pretty good at figuring out where plots are headed, but the season went off into directions I never expected.
I recommend watching it. You can see the first three seasons on Netflix (33 episodes) and purchase the fourth season online. Rumor has it there will be a fifth and final season where they promise to wrap things up in a satisfying way. Sure hope that doesn’t mean: 1) It was all a dream, 2) A quick fade to black, or 3) an alternate reality.
Have you been watching Breaking Bad? What do you think of it?
