TV Notes: Wipeout, True Life, Venting

By Steve Rhodes

Recent observations from more TV viewing than should be allowed even in a democracy.
1. The sucker-punch wall is priceless.

I will defend to the death programming like this.


2. True Life continues to produce.
3. This is an older one, but I love when the kids says “total failure on the cool meter.”

4.I’m like the spawn of a clown.”
5. It would have been nice if Budweiser could have produced this without adding their name to the end. Just do the right thing and put it out there. Unless you’re just trying to sell beer.

6. According to that new Coors commercial – and, well, most of mainstream media – wives apparently don’t allow their husbands to hang out with their friends. Unless they need to vent. Ugh.
7.The True Venting.

“That is America blowing out of these vents!”
