Review: Prison Break Season 3 Premiere

When we last saw our misunderstood heroes, they were surrendering to Panamanian authorities in a jungle, after having to shoot the asian g-man who had that permanent smug smile on his face wiped off by a 32 calibur slug.
Little Question: How did the spook find Michael Scofield and Company after being shot in the warehouse at the end of season 2?
Bigger Question: Why is the show going all "Lost" on us, introducing a plot-line where Michael has to bust some secret prisoner out of the Sona prison, or watch his paramour Sarah Tancretti parish on a Rokr? Why, why, why? The execs (i.e. Brett Ratner) are over-thinking this one, and needlessly introducing a stupid plotline... Its not enough that Michael is interred at a prison that rivals the Turkish nightmare of Midnight Express, we have to have US Agents DEPENDING on him being there....
Very sketchy opening episode.... shades of implausibility approaching the level of 24 Day 6....

Review: The Big Bang Theory

Overuse of the laugh track underscores just how insecure the Producers of the new CBS comedy "The Big Bang Theory" are. Just like their two lead characters, the producers don't know just how funny their show is to people who would likely watch it, thus undermining their own demographical research, and negating their original hypothesis about its odds of reaching a suitable mass viewership.

In other words, the show is very funny, very charming, not really suitable for anyone under 14, or over 44, not because of all the sex jokes, but because of the dialogue...
It takes me back to my days at Williams Village, at Univ. of Colorado, in 1980, when I was a roommate to 2 electrical engineers, a chemical engineer and good friends with 2 more, The Big Bang Theory wisely stays true to its nerdiness, not dumbing down the dialogue to let the ignorant American's figure out what they're saying... It's almost a foreign language to anyone who has an IQ below 100, and that's fine with me.
I give the show a 9 out of 10, deducting points only for the condescending overuse of the laugh-track. Listen suits, smart people don't need to be told what is funny.
This show is available for FREE PREVIEW on Amazon Unbox right now.
