Back with a Vengance

Tony and Me are back on the blogging scene. After I deleted our last blog, TonyandMeWatchTV, we wandered from forum to forum getting banned for posting about what we had recently watched on Televison. Then we didn't watch TV at all for like a week and a half. Now we are back on the wagon and felt like people were still clamoring to know what we've seen on TV.

Well, we've watched a lot of interesting stuff and intend to continue watching, and blogging about what we watch. Mostly we watch Netflix "Watch instantly" programs, mostly. We got Netflix because there was a two week trial and Tony said we could watch a million DVD in two weeks and then cancel the account, but what happened is that it took a week and a half to get the first DVD's in the mail because the mailmen in New Jersey are all thieves. My credit card was autobilled before we could even return "I Spit on You're Grave" and the rest is about to make blogging history - again!

Last night we tried to watch Network, and it was great! I fell asleep in the middle of the movie because I had to go to work the next day, but it seemed pretty awsome. 

Tony and Me also discovered this TV show called Kolchak: The Night Stalker which is a goofy 70's show kind of like Tales From the Darkside. It Follows Carl Kolchak, a reporter who encounters supernatural entities. Darin McGavin plays Kolchak; you might remember him as the Dad from "A Christmas Story" or some shit. Whatever. The theme song is great and Tony and Me have tried to use it as our couple's whistle when we get seperated at parties or lost in the grocery store, but it's pretty hard to whistle.

We also watched all 15 episodes of Surface, a scifi number about mutant sea monsters. FUCK SURFACE. The first three episodes are kind of interesting because they we're written as a miniseries. Then the show turns to total shit. There was a scene in episode five or so when a boy skipping school was in the same grocery store as his mom. She thinks she sees him and does a double take. In the time it takes for her to walk down the isle where she saw him, the son and a friend had hidden in a shelf behind a bunch of paper towels. The only reason we watched all 15 episodes is because I like Lighton Meester now. She wears bikinis everyother episode in Surface. You might know her from Gossipgirl, but I don't because I've never watched more that five minutes of Gossipgirl (Tony watched two and a half episodes and says Meester is hot, but it's not worth it (He preffers Privilidged, I guess)). 

Anyhow, the Glenn Garry, Glenn Ross DVD should come in the mail soon. So expect a rundown of how great it is in the next week.
