I wonder how do prank shows go about getting people to allow them to use their footage.
Like, I've seen some folks crank-calling a psychic, and I wonder whether they got him to sign anything because what they do to him is definitely damaging to his career (you know how psychics will never let you record them perform). On the other hand, the voice was digitally changed so maybe that means they didn't need permission?

People will do just about anything to be on TV.

I'd say it's about 75:25 of people who'll do anything to get on tv versus people who'll do anything not to get on tv.

Watching Strictly Come Dancing, my Saturday nights are decided for a good while now. I don't really watch so much as be with the wife when she's watching, but it is fun. And afterwards is the new series of Merlin, which is okay but I'm really getting tired of no one having the guts to kill each other. And I enjoyed the latest series of Dr. Who but the serieses are way too short. And new Red Dwarf! Which is a old as the wife and I. Good times tv wise.

I started watching Modern Family recently. It's really funny.

Also, if I'm not mistaken, no one's mentioned The Walking Dead in this thread yet. I can't remember the last time I looked forward to new episodes of a show this much.

Every time I watch Modern Family it's like "Well, I guess that's pretty funny?"

Don't really have enough room in my life for zombies to be quite honest.

Things I'm watching right now: 30Rock, It's always sunny in Philadelphia, Parks&Recreation, New Girl, Go on, Big bang theory, How I met your mother (gradually giving up), Two and a half men (So bad it's good), Kay & Peele. And apparently I hate dramas?

Yeah, I keep going so I can finally Meet Your stupid fucking Mother already, and to look at Colbie Smolders. Not nearly the descent of The Office (US) though.

Also, if Big Bang Theory had a face, I would bunch it in the balls.

I really like The Big Bang Theory, and I have impeccable taste.

I'm sad that I've had to skip the last couple of episode of New Girl, due to the inclusion of Olivia "Dead Eyes" Munn.

I normally can't stand the Big Bang Theory (or most modern sitcoms in general). But the color went on our TV earlier, and suddenly the series was funny to me. I think seeing it in black and white allows my brain to "excuse" the over-the-top laugh track and corniness factor.

Apparently this isn't true.

Should really watch New Girl more often. Unrelated, I don't have any problems with Olivia Munn, but I haven't received the memo on why we're all supposed to dislike her. That one show she was on was terrible but she was the least of it.

Ever since she left Attack of the Show I've looked at her as sell-out. And now that show has gone down the drain and G4 is going to die (has died).

I've just always despised here. Everything I've seen of her has shown me that she's over-ambitious, mean-spirited, and untalented. Also, she has dark powers that destroy everything she touches. And just look at those eyes. Nothing but malice.
