Title: What sort of TV show do you want to see?
Post by: "Sixhits" on March 02, 2004, 03:41:10 am
Just wondering.

I really want to see a show about soldiers, like the old COMBAT tv-show.

That's just my pick.

Thoughts?

that USA show "combat missions"?

or something else?

I liked that show. They used MILES gear and mock terrorists, and had guys from SWAT, Force Recon, Navy Seals, etc. It was like a military version of survivor. Kick ass.

Oh... and it was hosted by Rudy... the Navy Seal from Survivor.






But the only real TV show I need is The Simpsons.  :D

They need a war show in the theme of the old gladiator tournaments.  forget about death row, put those sons of bitches up for death against one another.  They are all pretty much up for death for being mass murderers so let them compete on a new level.  It's not like they don't like the sight of blood or death.  When they win they get rewards like cigarrets and such.  When they die, justice is served.

Now that would be great.

Fah, if i submit that idea to ESPN and i make millions and millions of dollars, do i have to give you royalties?  (I think it has some promise)

A show that isn't about war, isn't about people killing and shooting each other, isn't about people being so greedy they will do anything for money, that isn't about people who will go to any expence to make themselfs appear bigger and better than others, that isn't about fucking celebrities....

No wonder the world gets so fucked up when peoples heads get pumped full of that shit on tv

Exactly BFG, that is why they all die in the end.  That's the beauty of the concept.  

Oh yeah, yes Wolfy, pay me mucho dollars please

Who needs a new show when you have Alias!  Man, you got the action, the killing of bad guys, all the drama you could ask for, and a kick-ass girl named Jennifer Garner to drool over!

Well putt BFG.  This is exactly the reason you'll find me on the comp more then in front of the tv come down time.  You know what i find sick, is how they've started to use explicit titles for their shows to attract more viewers who are aimlessly surfing. e.g. "Girls Gone Wild" "Two Guys and One Girl" MTV, E, and VH1 are the worst for these titles, coming up with new one's every night it seems.

Things i will watch:  Simpsons, Seinfeld, cool discovery shows, and movies.  Oh and the news from time to time

DVS and I need our own Night time variety show, where we interview the retards from the B&G.  How cool would that be? The possibilites are endless ! The real question is, who would we interview first....(rapid or snipey...)

What about BAND OF BROTHERS?

It's my favorite show, ever. Even tho it was a mini.

i think the simsons has to take pride possition on the mantelpiece here. There are few shows out there that match the quality of this show in some aspects. the way the show can be attractive to both kids and adults alike - the subtle political humour, the links and references to American life. the sheer quality of the scripts. The Simpsons is a damn masterpiece.

Red Dwarf...without a doubt....waiting for the film ;D

You mean the original RedDwarf before it got loads of money and got all flashy of course?

God the first series' were brilliant. Cat..... or rather Dwain Dibbly ;)

Oh yeah does anyone know what state springfield is in?

As a Die Hard Simpsons fan, I can confidently tell you: Kentucky.

Two Examples of Proof:
1) A reference is made to Mexico: "South of the Border." Homer responds by saying, "Tennessee?" which borders Kentucky to the south.

2) In one of my favorite episodes, "Behind the Laughter," it ends with:  "???this Northern Kentucky family."


However, one flaw that comes to mind:
 
When Homer takes Mr. Burns' yaght to have a party, they reach international waters, and then look back and see springfield. The problem? Kentucky is not on the coast.

Regardless of this minor flaw, I am still fairly certain that it is Kentucky.

Combat Missions....where did that show go? I used to watch that show alot.....and that other show called Manhunt. Never aired but it was a survival reality show. Good TV never gets played on air.


Title: Re:What sort of TV show do you want to see?
Post by: Supernatural Pie on March 05, 2004, 04:04:32 am
Yah I was always hoping for a second season of Combat Missions.

I also thought that it'd be fun to play a terrorist. (This was pre-9/11, btw)

I thought it was Ohio because in one episode, marge was talking over the phone and I heard her saying the address was blah blah blah "Oh hi Ned" so I thought ohio

I don't think we'll ever know. Although if you watch the "monorail" edition, you'll see the addition of a monorail certianly put "gimpiville", "craphaven" and "nowwheresville" on the map... :)

It was actually:

"742 Evergreen Terrace, Springfield, Oh Hiya Maude, come on in!"

That's just Groening's way of throwing you off track.  :) But we all know it's Kentucky. Muahahah

I think the Simpsons has gone down hill. It's still hella funny, but it nearly as funny as it used to be.
Here's my picks; Alias(Garner is just hott, new episode tonight, wewt!) The Family Guy, The Daily Show( I can't believe no one has mentioned this one yet, John Stewert is fucking halirious) and the best series ever: The World Series of Poker on ESPN. Sooo good

shows that I could see less of: almost all of VH1's and MTV's programming(except I love the 80s/70s) I hate "The Fabulous Life of...._______" Really, once you have that much money, everybody does the same thing: buys a whole lot of the same shit. thats not interesting at all. Oh, and do away with reality shows. except for the really fucked up ones, like the midget one, or average joe.

Spike:

Simpsons = Still pwns (Last week's episode was un-fucking-believable--Maggie was thought to have been a genius--and it had Simon on it! Funny shit. 'twas. Really. =D)

Alias = weak (You can replace this category with 24.)

Family Guy = pwns (Stewie's my hero.)

The Daily Show = pwns (God bless anyone that makes fun of Politics every night)

MTV/VH1 = weak (If I want music, I'll listen to my iTunes)

Reality Shows = weak/pwns (My Big Fat Obnoxious Fianc? was funny as hell. The Apprentice is sometimes really interesting. Survivor died with season 2. Anything related to a "Joe," midget weddings, or someone gay is a crappy show.)

Lastly, World Series of Poker on ESPN and Travel are awesome. I've learned so much about Poker from those shows, and am currently 8-2 against my friends and family.
