Misc recent TV notes
Did anyone else watch the New Americans series on PBS this week? It was a really fascinating documentary/series/whatever, but somehow the segments just went on too long (or were on too late, maybe). I kept having to crap out and go to bed about 1/2 an hour before they ended. Is it me, or the series? 9-12 watching people go about their daily lives with subtitles may be a bit much, but 9-11 I feel I should have been able to handle with no problem. Hmmm.
South Park - the Passion - I am now dying for my deal to heat up so I can use the phrase "Bring it? I brought it, put it on the table and opened it up, bitch!"
Wonderfalls - wtf? I want to like this show but somehow I am completely unable to get into it.
Apprentice -
spoiler
That was a surprise, I though Harvard was gone for sure. Anyone else get the distinct impression that, "live wire" justification nwst, Trump fired Bumpkin purely because, despite the fact that he was a more sucessful leader and better performing candidate, there was just no way T was gonna fire a Harvard MBA in favor of a HS grad? Particularly peculiar in that one of the reasons Troy kept kicking ass was that the other players kept underestimating him because of his accent/superficial lack of sophistication. (In fact, the main sign I've seen of Kwami's intelligence & ability was that he didn't make that mistake.)
