Sign of the end of days? Mike Greenberg AND Colin Cowherd both have shows in development that are based on their lives?
Of the two, I prefer Greenberg, because he's mainly harmless and at least appears to believe the stuff he says. Cowherd clearly doesn't believe any inflammatory word he says. He's like the worst elements of Limbaugh and Olbermann, without the political bent.
But -- and this is why this is a FanPost and not a FanShot -- this got me thinking about the inevitable Bleed Cubbie Blue show. Here is the casting:
Al - Judd Hirsch (He's still alive, right?)
Josh - The dude from Numbers -- the math one, not the cop one
Not Bruce - Rainn Wilson
dtpolitt - Dominic West
Shanghai Badger - Wil Wheaton
Worf - Michael Chiklis. If he's not available, then Timothy Olyphant. If he's not available, then Barney
Cubbie-Tim - Jim Parsons (Sheldon from Big Bang Theory)
TJ11 - Baby Bop

Given that profile pic...
I’d say Hirsch fits the face to a T. Plus, I think he’s one of the most underrated actors out there. I loved him in Independance Day, and I loved him MORE in Numb3rs.
Hirsch as the shrink in Ordinary People was great
and certainly jives with Al’s role here at times. What the hell, every day.
I once had someone mistake me for
someone who was Tom Green’s sidekick (whose name I don’t remember). Since I’ve never seen any of his shows, I can’t say whether or not I look like him—or who even this person is (Not Tom Green, the sidekick.) but this person seemed pretty excited to meet someone who wasn’t me.
Glenn Humplich.
Not sure if the spelling is accurate, but that’s the guy.

Mark Schlereth's got one too. And don't forget the Kornheiser flop.
I thought Mike Greenberg was a douche when he was doing sports way back for CLTV and now he has a bigger reach for his lack of talent. Whatever.
On to the selections:
eths: Wilmer Valderamma
coolio: Jenna Fischer
sue: S. Epatha Merkerson
drew: Randy Jackson
gibbon: Ricky Gervais

Reality television is ruining the country.
And I’d make Not Bruce the Black Knight from Monty Python and the Holy Grail.
“Your arm is off.”
“No, it isn’t.”
I think the Greenberg and Cowherd ones are supposed to be sitcoms
not reality.
But I agree with you. My brother-in-law loves that show where a bunch of people stand in front of a storage shed and bid on things. I watched 10 minutes and then decided punching myself in the balls was more fun.
The only reality show should be Trading Spaces, because there was always a chance Genevieve would bend over at the right time and we’d see butt cleavage.

All of the Real Housewives shows and the entire MTV network as catalysts towards the destruction of our nation’s intelligence.

What I don’t get is – how can you be on Real Housewives and then be on Celebrity Apprentice? If you’re a Real Housewife, you’re not a Celebrity.
But I don’t draw outside the lines.

I would agree...
that most reality TV is an absolute joke, nevermind that almost all of it is already scripted. The one exception I would like to submit is “The Amazing Race” which is about the only one that I will watch. The casting directors have really done a great job selecting interesting yet real people. This season is sort of an All-Star season of popular teams from previous seasons that hadn’t won before.
They’ve got two brothers who are also rodeo cowboys, two Harlem Globetrotters, a father/daughter pair, two friends one of whom has Aspergers, and they’ve also had a mother/son pair where the son is deaf, and the obligatory but not always obnoxious dating couples.
An individual I worked with was on the show
I’m forgetting the season. She and her boyfriend…..they made it halfway….they did nothing but argue. (at least, that’s how their storyline were edited)
Perhaps it toughened them up, they got married. (Too bad.)
by San Diego Smooth Jazz Man on May 5, 2011 3:33 PM CDT up reply actions
I love Amazing Race
But I consider shows like that, Survivor, Project Runway etc. to be game shows and not reality shows. I’m not a Survivor fan, but I do like Runway and Top Chef too. (Although this season of Masters is a little lame.)
I blame Curtis for that
He’s not charismatic enough to carry off the hosting duties. The competitors aren’t either, but he seems to have no way of bringing out their memorable qualities, either. Also, he seems to be bringing an agenda to the show beyond “cook really good food”. Padma could probably use a couple of more bucks – just let her host all of the TC versions.

Me too.
I think legitimate contest reality shows can be interesting. I enjoy Top Chef. Top Shot too.
I can't believe I like Project Runway
It a show I started watching because of the wife. But now I watch the runway shows and shout “I can’t believe they sent that down the runway! It’s a hot tranny mess!”

We've all got those shows.
My GF got me on Desperate Housewives, but I lost interest after the first season or two.
I'm guilty of that as well
"Who ever heard of the Cubs losing a game they had to have?" -Frank Chance
"If [Ruth] had [called his shot], I would have knocked him down with the next pitch." -Charlie Root
They rushed into this last one too quickly
After the network switch, they felt the need to film another season right on the heels of the last one to get a quick presence established on Lifetime. Their casting decisions seemed like they were the result of just looking at the next dozen folks who missed the cut in the previous season. That, and I think everyone was just plain exhausted, leading to some boring challenges, haphazard production, and judging that was…head-scratching at times.
I hope with a full season to recover that the next iteration will show signs of improvement. Of course, we may find that the current crop of talented but struggling designers has already been exploitedred. If that’s the case, I’d expect an “All-Stars” type of season.
"Who ever heard of the Cubs losing a game they had to have?" -Frank Chance
"If [Ruth] had [called his shot], I would have knocked him down with the next pitch." -Charlie Root
Wasn't this the second season after the switch?
Regardless, picking Gretchen over Mondo was the kiss of death.
Even Heidi Klum thought that was a terrible decision
But Michael and Nina wouldn’t budge.
I think the problem with Runway has been that Magical Elves, the production company that had been doing the show on Bravo, decided to stay with Bravo and keep doing Top Chef (and Work of Art). I don’t think the new production team is as skilled. And if you heard Tim Gunn’s comments about the Jackie Kennedy episode, you know there’s been some grumblings about the new people.
But the format is still solid. I’m hoping with experience, the new people will get it figured out. It’s not rocket science.
The new production team was hastily assembled and told to get a new season out *now*
It really showed in lots of ways – the Jackie O challenge was a very glaring example, but it goes deeper than just changing the point of the challenge in the middle of it. According to some of the other stories, the new production team really didn’t seem to see the point of having Tim around. They constantly neglected to tell him what was going on.
The thing that makes PR unique is Tim Gunn – not only is he a very fair and gracious man, but he spent decades as a fashion educator. No other show has such a qualified individual acting in a mentor role. The audience reaction to him is overwhelmingly positive and many see him as more of a reason to watch the show than the bitchy judges, clueless designer drama, or sometimes-crappy clothes. If the producers screw with Tim that badly again, I believe he would just quit the show, and they would lose most of their audience. Much of that crap would be unwatchable without him around.
"Who ever heard of the Cubs losing a game they had to have?" -Frank Chance
"If [Ruth] had [called his shot], I would have knocked him down with the next pitch." -Charlie Root
Nope - First one on Lifetime
As for Gretchen over Mondo, the breakdown on that was fashion designer and fashion editor vs. model and singer/actress. The two that voted for Gretchen had been paging through the same look books as Gretchen had, and thought her to be more on-trend. The two that voted for Mondo were voting for creativity and good-looking clothes. Basically, if the two most bull-headed judges hadn’t made a snap decision that on-trend (and kissing their ass) was more important than being a creative designer, Mondo would have walked away with it.
Anyway, I liked Tim Gunn’s post-script on it. He said that he was getting a paper or some coffee in his neighborhood and a woman stopped him with, “Oh, Mondo will be able to get a job anywhere now. Gretchen really needs the money.”
Yeah, I’m a fan.

Conversely,
television sans reality hitting its peak for quality programming. Everything AMC touches is gold, FX has testosterone programming locked down, HBO is climbing towards another peak post-Sopranos/Wire, and even channels like TNT, TBS, and USA have great shows.
"The riches of the game are in the thrills, not the money." --Ernie Banks
Really good point!
Breaking Bad and Mad Men are two of the best shows on TV period. F/X has a few solid shows: Always Sunny, Archer, The League, etc… The only problem with all of these kinds of shows is that they tend to peak around seasons 4 or 5 and then go into decline from then on.

Tommy Chong + Kid from Slumdog Millionaire man.
The reason for this crap
is that men are simply not watching any scripted TV these days. That’s pretty understandable when you look at the shows on network TV. Look at ABC’s schedule. I don’t think there is anything wrong with a guy watching Desperate Housewives or Cougar Town (I used to watch Housewives), but they all skew female. I think every single show on ABC except the soon-to-be cancelled shows V and Detroit 1-8-7 have a strong female skew. (Not counting Saturday Night College Football, of course.)
So the networks are desperate to find a show that men will tune in to. So they’ve got this silly idea that if they base it on some sports guy they watch on ESPN, they’ll tune in to the show. But didn’t they learn anything from that awful Kornheiser show starring Jason Alexander?
There's literally almost no quality programming on broadcast TV anymore.
I can probably count them on my fingers.
"The riches of the game are in the thrills, not the money." --Ernie Banks
Community!
Part 1 of the season finale tonight!
Most of the NBC Thursday comedy block is good, but Community is the only one I won’t miss.
Beyond that, yeah. I can’t think of a show I won’t miss. Amazing Race. That’s about it.
breaking bad
mad men
community
justified
game of thrones
treme
men of a certain age
modern family
boardwalk empire
dexter
how i met your mother
That’s my unofficial list. An official one will require rankings and a more thorough brain search.
"The riches of the game are in the thrills, not the money." --Ernie Banks
Why in the world is Parks and Rec not on your list?
GM's are in charge of Managers, not the other way around.
Not a big fan of Parks & Rec or 30 Rock.
"The riches of the game are in the thrills, not the money." --Ernie Banks
I don't watch 30 Rock, but I think it's okay.
But Parks and Rec has been fantastic since their iffy first season. Shame you don’t like it.
GM's are in charge of Managers, not the other way around.
They're all great.
Tom Haverford is the funniest character on any of the three shows at the moment.
“‘Zerts’ are what I call desserts. ‘tre tres’ are entrees. I call sandwiches ‘sammies’, samdoozles’, or ‘Adam Sandlers’. Air conditioners are ‘cool blasterz’ with a Z, I don’t know where that came from. I call cakes ‘big ol cookies’. I call noodles ‘long ass rice’. Fried chicken is ‘fry fry chicky chick’. Chicken parm is ‘chicky chicky parm parm’, chicken cacciatore – ‘chicky cacc’. I call eggs ‘pre-birds’ or ‘future-birds’. Root beer is ‘super water’. Tortillas are ‘bean blankies’. And I call forks ‘food rakes.”
Community has had the best year, with the D&D episode as an awesome highlight.
30 Rock has had the best run, and has had a fantastic “comeback” season, although I think that Baldwin may be right that Season 6 should be the last…. that’s a long time to try to keep anything funny.
Overall… everyone should be watching “Archer”, which may be the funniest thing in the history of laughter.

I adored "Frisky Dingo"
And I loved the first season of “Archer”. I’ll probably watch the second season the way I did the first – in a marathon session with tears streaming down my face and my sides aching from laughing so damned much.

Season 2 starts a bit slower than Season 1.
The first 5 minutes of the pilot episode was about the funniest thing I’d ever seen.
The “Terms of Enrampagement” arc this year may have topped it.

Not at all
“Archer” is a ‘toon that shows on FX. It’s a spoof on secret agents, the 80s, and office politics (in about equal measure). It employs crass humor which is more hit than miss. It’s shockingly well-written for being mostly a bunch of dick and fart jokes. It’s got a smooth Western animation style and the voice actors are very good at their jobs. Definitely not for kids.

Do you watch Men of a Certain Age, Josh?
It’s about 50-something year old guys, but the acting is so damn top notch and the stories are so rich, I think it would be something you’d enjoy.
"The riches of the game are in the thrills, not the money." --Ernie Banks
I should
Tell you what, I’ll give it a try. I’ve read good things about it too.
Of course, now I’m mainly getting caught up on The Wire, which I know you’d approve of. Didn’t have HBO when it was on the air.
by Josh Timmers on May 5, 2011 10:54 PM CDT up reply actions
I don't think anything will enter my pantheon of The Wire,
but the first three seasons of Breaking Bad are as close to Wire-perfect television I’ve ever seen. The Shield came close in the tail end of its final season, Sopranos had its moments, Mad Men hits A+ episodes twice a year, and that’s all I can think of that comes close to touching Wire. Breaking Bad is that good.
You should prioritize: Wire, Breaking Bad, Men of a Certain Age. If you’re a Homicide fan you’ll be amazed at watching Andre Braugher in another role (unless anybody besides me caught him on FX’s THIEF, a real short 5 or 6 show couple years ago), and damn me if Ray Romano doesn’t deserve some sort of award for displaying real serious acting chops.

Network shows I still watch
Chuck
Big Bang Theory
Amazing Race (on fast forward — that show has REALLY gone downhill)
Modern Family
I don’t have HBO or Showtime and I still do OK. Netflix gets me “The Wire” and my wife “Weeds”
Most basic cable packages will have TNT, AMC and FX.
The problem is, there are some good shows that just haven’t hit the numbers. Terriers, Lights Out and Rubicon were all excellent to decent, and just couldn’t find the numbers. We’re probably going to lose Chuck.
But I am depressed about TV. All you need to know is that a disgusting fat pig like Kirstie Alley owns the ratings.
"It's all in the game, yo"
Terriers was brilliant.
So sad it didn’t make it to a second season. Doesn’t bother me that Chuck won’t make it. This season hasn’t been good.

I've enjoyed it for the Timothy Dalton character
But it has also revealed just how bad an actress LInda Hamilton is.
Worst Chuck episode is still better than most of the other crap
"It's all in the game, yo"
Terriers ended perfectly, as did Lights Out.
I read that Nielsen is considering changing the way it measures TV audiences. That would do a world to save some of these shows, methinks. I probably watch just as much TV on my laptop as I do on my plasma.
"The riches of the game are in the thrills, not the money." --Ernie Banks
I think Terriers ended well, but I thought it had a lot of potential for a second season.
I checked out Lights Out on your recommendation, and do agree it ended well. I couldn’t see how a show like that could sustain itself for more than a couple seasons. But Terriers…sigh.
I probably watch 75% of my shows on my laptop, if not more. I have an HBO subscription and still find myself downloading those shows. At this point, it’s just a more comfortable experience.

I liked that Lights Out on FX too, but it lost me a couple times during the season. It’s Always Sunny is fabulous as well on FX.

Lights Out (cancelled)
Terriers (cancelled)

Off the top of my head: “The Gang goes to Prom,” “The Gang Gives Frank an Intervention,” and “Charlie Goes America All Over Everyone’s Asses.” Also, the “Road Trip” episode is terrific, as is “the Gang dances their asses off.” Literally, so many good ones, I could go all day.

Total MASH episodes I've seen: 0
"The riches of the game are in the thrills, not the money." --Ernie Banks
It used to be on 50 times a day on FX
I think Alan Alda actually sued because he wasn’t getting royalty checks for all of it.
I find the first three seasons really overrated, but I just am not amused by Henry Blake. I enjoyed the next three seasons.
If you see BJ and he DOESN’T have a mustache, then it’s a good episode. Otherwise, change the channel.
