    I was flicking through the channels the other night and landed on something I thought was a UFC fight. Turned out it was a show called Bully Beatdown on MTV. It's terrific. Basically they find a bully and challenge him to step into the cage with an MMA fighter. Theres one round of wrestling and one round of kickboxing. The bully of course gets the shit beaten out of him and those he bullied go home very happy. Its hilarious because the bullies actually think they have a chance. The only one I've seen last the 2nd round was some roid pumping Russian freak who threw up and needed medical assistance afterwards.<br />
    <br />

    ^ He sure is! The second hour of the premiere is better than the first, imo. The third episode/hour is not one of the best episodes. Next episode is Locke's I think which should make for good watching.<br />
    <br />
    I liked Flash Foward. It's definitely something I'll keep watching.

    And a GMC SUV. The writers had a few reponses to that sort of criticism. One being it doesn't really matter, and if a worried about what car they are driving then the story/characters have lost your attention. <br />
    <br />
    The second is the mythical catch all of this has all happened before and will happen again. So all those cars were actually invented in the colonies.

    watched the 1st series of Breaking Bad, quite good, first few were ok, but got going and the final episode was classic! <br />
    <br />
    I see they are mid way through the 2nd on C4, so will have to find it somewhere else!

    having dropped off the Lost band wagon like a lot of others I tuned in last night and found it very watch-able again. In the past you couldn't just come in anywhere and hope to enjoy it but I did last night.

    Watched a couple of episodes but found it a big yawn. <br />
    <br />
    Has anyone seen `The Cleaner' ....? It started this week.<br />
    <br />
    Anyone who thinks CSI Miami is corny should (or shouldn't) watch this show. It stars Benjamin Bratt (ex Law & Order and ex long time boyfriend of Julia Roberts) and Grace Park (Asian girl out of Battlestar Gallactica). <br />
    <br />
    Hillariously dreadful purely by mistake (corny lines and bad acting). <br />
    <br />
    It's all about an ex-substance abuser and his ex-substance abuser friends who hire themselves out (to help clean up people who are getting into drugs etc).

    Minority of two - it's everything good about MacGyver (building stuff etc) without the shit (never using a gun).<br />
    <br />
    It's the best easy entertainment show around.

    I love Locke. He's been excellent throughout. He's normal, well mannered and kind hearted but is a tough hunter-gatherer when required. The type of person I'd latch on to, should I ever find myself stranded on an island. <img src='http://www.daimenhutchison.com/invision/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/smile.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=':(' /><br />
    <br />
    But isn't he scary as the `new' Locke? His eyes....pure evil. Love it!<br />
    <br />
    I don't know how the two parallel worlds are going to come together but it's going to be fun finding out. <img src='http://www.daimenhutchison.com/invision/public/style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/biggrin.png' class='bbc_emoticon' alt=';)' />

    Watched the first few episodes yesterday. Seemed pretty entertaining. Kind of a light hearted, modern day Equalizer.

    I loved the Equalizer. <br />
    <br />
    Read an interview with Edward Woodward (shortly before he died) where he blamed his ill health on making the Equalizer series. He had a heart attack during its production. To be honest, I don't know why he blamed that show for his ill health. All he did was walk around in his overcoat - like he did in all his other shows.<br />
    <br />
    Same with Alex Guiness who was Obi-One-Kenobi in the original Star Wars. Bitched and moaned that no-one recognised his good work' as a stage and screen actor. Hated being known as OOK. Talked of the stupid fans' who only recognised him as OOK. Yet he took the millions that character made him though. What the silly old fool forgot was that the young SW generation (who re-ignited his fame) wouldn't have known him as a famous actor of the 40s and 50s.
