THE SHOWS 
Big Brother

  • JOcasta confirmed that she WAS speaking in tongues after the Battle of the Block. I guess God doesn't understand English? 
  • What are the big BB sayings? HOH, Blood on my Hands, POV, On the Block, houseguests, in this house, got any others? Drinking Game!!!
  • What if all the people who felt "alone in the house' got together? New alliance? The Lone Wolves, Julie Chen's Lonely Hearts Club???
  • YES Victoria, America does think you are stupid, America IS laughing at you and you DO stink at this game
  • You know I love Caleb, but EVERYONE must be SO sick of hearing about Amber and Cody/Cody and Amber. I'd know I'd go insane. I mean Caleb's sneaking around the cameras just so he could bust them canoodling in the HOH room? SO WHAT…as Zach said…SHE'S JUST NOT THAT INTO YOU dude!!! Give it a rest!!!
  • Home skillet…makes me laugh
  • Who's sick of hearing Brittany whine? MEeeeeeee
  • I did agree with her though…Caleb did look yummy in that denim shirt
  • Just when I thought I didn't have to hear the words World Cup again until 2018…we had the BB Cup  
  • Loved how Frankie wore his referee ensemble
  • More reason's why America's laughing at you Victoria: There are not Touchdowns in Soccer 
  • Nicole: Yes, Contraption is a word
  • Zach's going to take his girlfriend Frankie on a German vacation. There is a lederhosen joke in there somewhere.
  • Brittany had to kick 2,400 goals in 24 hours-she did it! I wonder if she felt alone in the house when all of the houseguests were rooting for her and celebrating when she did it  
  • I love you Caleb, but taking the 5K and not the POV was a STUPID MOVE! WTF is wrong with you?
  • Cody had his very cute butt kicked by a giant shoe. At least he also got Frankie to rub it when it was sore. 
  • I totally thought the Germitard was going to be something GERM oriented not GERMANY oriented. Nicole looked cute in it nonetheless
  • Cody graduated from Rutgers and said "Could have took" Nice grammar Rutgers!
  • Victoria's outfit for the POV was ridiculous
  • All that talk from Cody about putting Caleb on the block, all that talk that his brother thought he'd be an idiot if he didn't put Caleb on the block, all that talk about NOT screwing Donny over.  Talk, talk, talk…I love Caleb but Cody…that was horrible game play. Caleb absolutely should have been put up. Of course I'm relieved that he wasn't, but I like good game play as much as I like Caleb's abs. 
American Muscle
I'm really into American Muscle. I love Mike and the Barwis gang. I love laying on my couch with my chips and salsa watching super strong athletes getting their ass kicked by Tank, Dan, and Deets. This week one of my favorite ex-Yankees, Nick Swisher, hit the training center with his huge smile, huge personality and huge heart. He worked his ass off and was touched by a young paraplegic kid who was also working his ass off and not with a 70 million dollar pay day attached to his success. Tank tried to pimp his ride for 500 bucks but the boxcar he drives looked exactly the same to me when he got it back. Dusty, well…he's a 400 lb receptionist who hates phones what more can you say about the guy? There's always a lot of food in the office and every one's drinking shakes and talking a lot of smack. What I love about Mike is that he's scary and tells you he loves you all at the same time. Lots of hugs and heart. Good show. 
THE OTHER STUFF

-I'm setting my DVR for Conan on 8/4 and you should too if you are an Orange is the New Black fan. The entire cast will be on  going Conan that night. Taylor Schilling, Laverne Cox, Uzo Aduba, Kate Mulgrew, Natasha Lyonne and Jason Biggs. If you know any or all of their characters names on the show, let me know for some bonus points. 

-Good News for the Letterman staff, Angelo's Pizza and that pie place next door...Stephen Colbert will be moving in to the Ed Sullivan theatre, just a few blocks east from where he does the Colbert Report now.  To all my MediaVest and CBS friends...the lines of annoying tourists will continue! 

-The CW pulled Seed and Backpackers after 2 episodes each. Suggestion to Mark Pedowitz: let the viewers help you! Take note from Amazon Prime...post your shows online and let your viewers schedule their own Summer!!! The CW's audience is already very social when it comes to their CW programs...let US help YOU Mark!!! What have you got to lose at this point??? 

Thursday's Trivia Question: Joel McHale currently serves double duty on a Primetime Comedy and a Talk Show...name the two shows.
