Time to get LOST!

Tuesday, February 2nd, 2010

Today, I do not care about an animal seeing its shadow; I care about what’s inside a smoke monster or more specifically what it is as today is the beginning of the end of one of my favorite TV shows, LOST!

Lost-Season-6-Poster

On Twitter people are quoting lines from an awful Bill Murray movie and think they are being wacky and funny, but it’s a little annoying and just needs to stop, because no one cares that much and is Bill Murray even relevant anymore?

Didn’t think so?

So, previously on LOST we saw Juliet pound the hydrogen bomb with a rock and we got a white screen left to wonder, if the plan worked. Did the hydrogen bomb reset the timeline for our castaways returning them to their rightful place in time? Did the bomb not explode? Or did something else entirely happen? Well if you saw the first 4 minutes that were “leaked” (BTW folks ABC totally leaked that for you) you kind of know the answer to this.

The first hour was premiered in Hawaii the other day and based on the Tweets from the premiere the first hour sounds like it’s going to be a blast. There are spoilers out there for the first hour, but I refuse to read them though an annoying co-worker keeps going around saying “I know what happens on LOST tonight. Do you want to know?” I now know that co-worker has the mind of a 7 year-old, a really dumb 7 year-old with no social skills.

Anywho, I know not all of the questions won’t be answered for me in this final season, but here are a few questions I want answered by the end of the season:

1)      What the hell do the numbers mean? I mean they constantly use these numbers, so it has to have some meaning right?

 

2)      Who or what is the Smoke Monster? Is it another form of the man in black, can’t be because that’s the fake Locke, right? Is it another form of Jacob? Please tell me what it is

 

3)      Who were the Adam and Eve Skeletons? Were they someone the castaways knew?

 

4)      I know everyone hated Nikki and Pablo, I sure did, but if the timeline was reset I would like to know what happened to them. Because if it was reset did all the people that died really die? Charlie, Doc Artz, Boone (who was confirmed to be coming back)?

 

5)      Richard Alpert? Who is he, and what is part in the island mythology?

If those 5 questions are answered then I will be happy with this season. I’ll let the rest of the unknown answers surprise me.

If you are a true LOST fan then I know you probably read Doc Jensen and his ramblings on EW.com. If not Doc and Dan Snierson premiere their first episode of “Totally Lost” today, you can click HERE to view.

So what questions do you want answered in this finale season of LOST? Let everyone know in the comments section.

Pre-Thoughts on American Idol season 9

Tuesday, January 12th, 2010

Tonight begins the 9th season of American Idol and probably the first season with a drastic change. I know they added a 4th judge last year, but to me that is not as drastic as the loss of an original judge, Paula Abdul, the addition of comedian/talk show host Ellen Degeneres and the announcement this will be Simon Cowell leaving the Idol judging panel after this season to bring his British hi ‘The X Factor’ to America in 2011.

Good move for Simon, but I don’t think it’s the end of Idol.

Not yet at least.

Being a fan of the show since the beginning I can point to the bad, Wild Card Rounds, Katharine McPhee V.S. Taylor Hicks, Ryan Seascrest’s frosted tipped hair in season 2 and the good, Kelly Clarkson, Carrie Underwood, Chris Daughtry, Adam Lambert (yes, his CD is really good), Melinda Doolittle, and if you can’t tell there has been a lot more good than bad in the past 8 seasons.

So, why won’t idol just go away after Simon leaves? The show pulls in 20+ million viewers an episode, and is a cash cow for Fox. It’s not going anywhere until something beats it in the rating and beats them badly. Secondly, the show is not about the judges for me. I tend to disagree with them a lot, they have been known to push certain people that are considered marketable, and they are not what the shows about. The show is about singing and I think many Americans forget that quite often, look at the Sanjaya fiasco in season 6, it was funny for a moment then it got old fast and yes better singers went before the screech fest that was Sanjaya was sent packing.

I hope Ellen actually judges. I know she was brought in to be the “nice” judge, but based on her appearance this summer on ‘So You Think You Can Dance,’ I don’t have high hopes, but I will give her credit she can be entertaining, I hope her Idol judging seat doesn’t turn into an HBO Comedy Special like on ‘Dance.’

If there was one judge I would like to see go it would be Randy, who hasn’t had an original quote or though since season 2. I’m sick of hearing “you can sing the telephone book dog, but…” It’s old and over like his career. Randy in season 9 could you please be original and to Kara, please don’t ever write or co-write the winners song ever again.

Tonight starts with the Boston Audition round with guest judge Victoria Beckham. Should be interesting, but these audition rounds have lost their luster; let’s see if the producers can make them interesting again. They tend to follow people who make it past this round and tell their whole story during Hollywood week and then they don’t make top 24 and the audience is like ‘Why did you spend 6 weeks telling us their story?” Let’s find out about the contestants who actually make the show than ones that came close.

So another season begins tonight. I’ll be watching, but will you?

Gone too soon: My Top 12 cancelled shows of the decade

Tuesday, December 29th, 2009

It’s that time of the year to make lists apparently. This year is a little different because not only are you getting the best/worst of 2009 but you’re also finding the best/worst of the last decade.

It’s no secret that I am a fan of TV; I love a good sitcom/drama/reality TV show and so on. I always say everything that you need to know in life you can find on TV since a lot of lessons learned throughout history are updated for the current generation.

So this list is going to be that will make you think. It’s the top 12 shows of the last decade that we’re canceled too soon, rated by me.

We lost some really good shows that didn’t pick up enough steam to be renewed. Some were cancelled after 1 or 2 showings to never be seen again, not even burned off in the summer.

So we salute these gone too soon shows:

12) You Don’t Know Jack (ABC Summer 2001)

 

Paul Rubens aka Pee-Wee Herman hosted this game show based on the popular PC Game. It only last 6 episodes, but I was entertained by it. Rubens added just the right amount of wackiness that fit the computer games charm.

 

11) Wonderfalls (Fox 2004)

 

This Fox show was delayed from 2003 and aired in 2004 by Fox and only lasted 4 episodes. It was witty and charming. The premise was a recent Brown University graduate, with philosophy degree, who holds a dead-end job as a sales clerk at a Niagara Falls gift shop. Jaye is the reluctant participant in conversations with various animal figurines — a wax lion, brass monkey, stuffed bear, and mounted fish, among others — which direct her via oblique instructions to help people in need.

This was created by Bryan Fuller and Ted Holland and starred actor Lee Pace. Fuller also created Pushing Daisies which Pace also starred in.

10) The Mole (ABC 2001-2004, 2008)

The Mole was one of my favorite reality series and introduced us to, at the time, a little used ABC News correspondent Anderson Cooper. Contestants traveled the world to participate in tasked that earned money for “the pot.” These tasks were usually timed and various rewards and distractions would hinder the team performance. While these tasks were going on one member of the team was “the Mole,” a saboteur whose missions was to make the team fail the task and take money from the pot.

At the end of each episode all players would take a quiz about the identity of the Mole, the person who scored the lowest would be “executed” and leave the game. The only exception to this is if a person earned an exemption in the task and they were free from taking the quiz.

You may be wondering why this show is on here when it ran for 5 seasons. Well I only count the first two with Anderson Cooper. The next two were “celebrity” hosted by Ahmad Rashad and won by Kathy Griffin and Dennis Rodman. The 5 series was hosted by John Kelly and only lasted 10 episodes of the summer of 2008.  

9) Invasion (ABC 2005)

 

This ABC show starring Eddie Cibrian (Third Watch, Sunset Beach) only lasted one season, and that’s a shame because by the end of the series it became so good I was hooked, that is if it was on when it was suppose to be.

Somewhat similar to Invasion of the Body Snatchers, the show told the story of the aftermath of a hurricane in which water-based creatures infiltrate a small Florida town and begin to take over the bodies of the town’s inhabitants through a cloning process (first by merging with and then unknowingly replacing them).

The first episode premiered with 17 million viewers then slowly lost its audience. By the 10th episode viewership was in the 10 million range at that point ABC put the show on hiatus until January of 2006, when Invasion returned the audience was hovering around 9 million and was once again put on hiatus and aired the final episodes aired in May of 2006 with a cliffhanger.  

8 ) The Comeback (HBO Summer 2005)

This HBO show starred Lisa Kudrow as Valerie Cherish is a D-grade actress who had it all. From 1989 until 1992, Valerie starred on a sitcom known as I’m It! The show was a hit during its initial run, but fell just three episodes shy of reaching syndication status.

The show had a spot right after Entourage but failed to gain an audience. I have to admit when I first watched the show I thought it was awful, but I continuously watched and each episode got better and better. It’s a shame it got cancelled after its 13th episode as The Comeback made a comeback at the end of the season. If HBO gave it a second season I believe it would’ve been like NBC’s Parks and Recreation which, in its second season, is one of the best shows on network TV.

What also made this show unique was the way it was shot. Single camera reality TV style.

7) Traveler (ABC Summer 2007)

Jay Burchell and Tyler Fog, two graduate students who become suspects when the fictitious Drexler Museum in New York is bombed while they are pulling a juvenile prank. Jay is a graduate of Yale Law School, while Tyler is a graduate of the Yale School of Management. It appears that their friend, Will Traveler (aka Daniel Taft), set them up to look like the terrorists who did the bombing. After the bombing, Traveler disappears and there is no evidence that he ever existed.

It was full of action and had a decent mystery and it was a summer series. Sometimes I wish networks would realize that some shows just belong in the summer time. I’m looking at you Fox for moving So You Think You Can Dance to the Fall this year. Traveler only lasted the 8 episodes that were ordered but David DiGilio posted an answer blog that gave an end to the series.

6) Reunion (Fox 2005)

The story of high school friends, murder and mystery. Really that is what Reunion was about a set of high school friends, one was murdered and a series of who dun nit questions. What was unique is that each episode took you through one year from 1986-2006 to the 20th year reunion. But we never made it there as fox cancelled the show after the episode called 1994. So we found out who was murdered, but never found out who did it. This is why people have a hard time investing in shows today. Viewers get attached then networks cancel them with no closure.

5) Murder in Small Town X (Fox 2001)

Probably on of the best produced reality shows ever. Critically hailed, but little watched. Murder in Small Town X (MiSTX) was a reality show that started with 10 contestants who had to solve a murder in, guess what, a small Maine Fishing village. The townspeople were all improv actors who played parts in the story. It was like a mystery dinner theater in real life, but a million times better. It was just crafted so well. At the end of each episode two people would be sent out to investigate two different areas. They had a 50/50 shot of returning as one would be “murdered” by the killer. The murder scenes were a little scary as you saw the contestant getting caught through the killers’ eyes, but it made for some damn good TV.

 

The winner was crowned on September 4th, 2001 and that was Angel Juarbe Jr. He won $250,000. The sad part was a week later Juarbe was a New York City Firefighter and lost his life a week later at the World Trade Center attacks.

 

4) Samantha Who? (ABC 2007-2009)

 

Christina Applegate starred as Samantha Newly, who’s character was basically a bitch before a car accident that left her with amnesia and couldn’t remember who she was anymore. and therefore set out to make amends and become a better daughter to her somewhat dysfunctional parents, played by Kevin Dunn and the always funny Jean Smart.

 

It was clever and entertaining and shame on ABC for screwing with its schedule so much it left people searching for the show. Samantha Who? was cancelled in May 2009.

 

3) The Nine (ABC 2006)

 

Nine, mostly strangers, find themselves in the middle of a bank robbery gone wrong and are held hostage. Each Episode pieced together what happened to each character during the standoff and added additional information to why the robbery occurred in the first place. This was one of those shows that had a great cast, Tim Daly (Private Practice), Kim Raver (Grey’s Anatomy, Lipstick Jungle), Scott Wolf (Party of Five, V) and Chi McBride (Pushing Daisies, Boston Legal) Owain Yeoman (The Mentalist), but never found an audience and we never found out what exactly happened. Thanks ABC for leaving me wondering 3 years later what happened.

 

2) Freaks and Geeks (NBC 2000)

Well it was actually 1999 but gets a slide because it was cancelled in 2000. Freak and Geeks was only aired 12 of its 18 episodes, but the final 6 were burned off in July of 2000 because of fan demand. The full season is available on DVD, so this classic can be watched over and over again. Freaks and Geeks introduced us to actors such as Linda Cardellini, James Franco, Jason Segel and Seth Rogen.

 

It was high school as it was and probably still is. NBC missed the boat by cancelling this great show, but hey we got some great movies from the actors in this show.

1) Pushing Daisies (ABC 2007-2009)

 

This was probably the best show on television, then the writers strike happened and ABC waited until the next season to air the new season instead of running it after the strike was resolved. Kristin Chenoweth stole the second season of this quirky show as the waitress of the Pie Hole who pined after bakery Ned, who had the ability to make the dead come alive with one touch. But the down side was he had to touch them again before a minute was up or someone else would die. It was quirky, it was sad; it was happy and just delightful. With Swoozie Kurtz, Chi McBride, Lee Pace, Ellen Green and Anna Friel the cast was amazing and watching the show in HD was amazing as the sets were full of color and amazing shots.

 

They said it was cancelled due to low ratings, well it didn’t get the pimping it did for the second season as it did for the first and yes, the writers strike messed the whole flow up and the time in between new shows was too long.

 

But it will remain one of my all-time favorite TV shows that was taken away too soon.

 Honerable mentions go to Moonlight and Tru Calling

Dear NBC- Why Do You Hate Hockey Fans?

Monday, April 20th, 2009

Dear NBC-

 

Why do you carry NHL games and strive to provide the worst NHL coverage ever. And then to top it off you seem to hate hockey fans.

 

The Pittsburgh Penguins have set up a large screen outside the arena to watch the hockey games for the past two seasons.

 

Word started circling on Friday April 17 that you would not allow the Penguins to show the game on the screen which brings about 2000-4500 people to gather around and root on their home team…FOR AN AWAY GAME!

 

You claimed you did not know about this screen, which was a lie, as there were shots of it all last playoff season when the Penguins went to the Stanley Cup Finals. It was mentioned several times during your broadcast and broadcast from the Versus Network. To claim ignorance that you were not aware is just a flat out lie.

 

Will those 2000-4500 people really kill your ratings? And what about your advertisers?

 

Wouldn’t be a shame if people stopped buying their products because of a decision you made? Because the way I see it the screen would be an advertisers dream. 2000-4500 people with no distractions of home sitting in front of a large TV, really if I was one of the advertisers I would be pissed at this decision. NBC just took a captivated audience and placed them in their home where during commercial breaks they could be cooking dinner, going to the bathroom, running errands etc…

 

NBC you made a huge mistake and if/when the Penguins make it further into the playoffs it’s going to get ugly.

 

I hope the Penguins organization goes rouge and take up the CBC’s offer to show their feed of the game, because it take a Canadian company to truly understand hockey fans and the support for their teams.

 

It’s a shame how you don’t care about hockey fans and through some of the worst commentators, coverage and awful camera angles. Get rid of the end zone cam for power plays, it’s horrible and makes people nauseas.

 

NBC think about what your doing to a group of, not just hockey fans, but people who may watch your shows, which there really isn’t that many because your lineup pretty much relies on shows that should be cancelled, The Biggest Loser and Celebrity Apprentice such fine TV Viewing that is., but no thanks. I may be one person, but doesn’t one person with a Nielson box reflect 1,000 people or more.

 

Just think about that.

 

 

I'm so LOST!

Thursday, January 22nd, 2009

And by the title I mean OMGWTFBBQ LOST is back and I will be consumed by this season.

As we learned last night this is all about time traveling. There were so many WTF moments last night it was almost hard to keep up with it all. We didn’t know if we were in the past, present, near present or future.

I was chatting with a few people yesterday on Twitter, well I was using TweetDeck beacuse it’s easier to follow, and 4 people that I follow tweeted at the same time something along the lines of, “This Neil character is annoying I hope they kill him off.” Then boom he gets struck with a flaming arrow and he’s dead. Plus one for the producers for doing that so quickly.

We also got to see that Daniel Faraday is Mr. Time Traveler as he showed up in the begining working on building the Dharma Station, The Orchid. Then we see him knock on the back door of the hatch then a yellow hazmat suited Desmond come bursting through the door with a gun. Faraday tells him to fin his mother in England, but before we hear her name the people on the island get shifted again.

Speaking of Faraday’s mother, anyone else think it’s Ms. Hawkings? The lady in who told Desmond not to marry Penny because he will break her heart and that he has to go to the sailing competition and get stranded on the island. If you don’t remember too well then she knows the rules to time travel and how you can’t change fate. Just like Charlie who was suppose to die but kept being saved by Desmond until Charlie realized it’s what is suppose to happen.

What’s up Jun? Is she like the badassed business women or what. Is she truly teaming up with Charles Widmore? Or is she really working with Ben?

What’s going to happen with Hurley and Syaid?

One perdiction I have. Charolette is a dead women. She’s bleeding out the nose and in the preview of the season we see her a dew team with even more blood pouring out her nose.

So what’s everyones theory for this season?

Lost, Solitary, American Idol

Wednesday, January 14th, 2009

One week from today!

 

I. Am. Excited!!!

 

Oh, what am I talking about?

 

Well the return of “Lost” of course.

 

lost

 

Many of you know I love television and I TiVo way too many shows and watch even more on sites such as Joost, Hulu and network sites like ABC.com.

 

Latest addiction is a show on the Fox Reality Channel, which I just discovered I receive the other day, called “Solitary.” It’s all sorts of guilty pleasure goodness.

 

solitary

 

Basically, 9 people are put into isolation with no contact with the outside world or each other and their actions are controlled by a computer generated voice named VAL, obviously a nod to HAL from 2001: A Space Odyssey.

 

Val puts the contestants through “tests” and “treatments” and analyzes their reactions. The show is billed as a “social experiment” and the test and treatments are meant to break down the contestants.

 

I did not see season one but I watched the whole “Solitary 2.0” on Hulu and I’m hooked and can’t wait for season 3 that starts on Saturday.

 

For more information on “Solitary,” head over to the Fox Reality website HERE and catch up on the guilty pleasure-ness of it all.

 

OK back to “Lost!”

 

There have been so many teasers lately and to top it all off, while I was working at the mall over the weekend the screens in front of me played a lost promote every 3 ½ minutes. I worked an 8 hour day in a dead mall and watched that promo 137.14 times…approximately.

 

So, needless to say, I am excited.

 

Tonight ABC airs last seasons finally, but I will be watching American Idol as I am a fan. No matter what all the naysayers like to say. Most just pop up on websites and just say “This Show SUCKS!!!!!!!! OMGWTFBBQ!!!! This is the liberals/conservatives fault blah blah blah blah blah”

 

idol

 

I usually just laugh and roll my eyes, but I roll my eyes a lot so that wouldn’t surprise people. Then I get annoyed as I read because there is a lack of people who can carry on a good conversation about Pop Culture.

 

So enjoy these TV shows and get ready for next Wednesday for an all new season of “Lost.”

 

Tomorrow I will do another Remember that show. If you missed last weeks you can click HERE and enjoy the memories.

Neil Patrick Harris and SNL Doogie Howser!

Sunday, January 11th, 2009

So Neil Patrick Harris hosted SNL on Saturday and it was really funny! I cracked up a lot. One of my favorite skits is below. A digital short of the Doogie Howser theme song, the ending kills!

Jake Ploeger Leaving WTAE

Thursday, January 8th, 2009

Well there goes another anchor at WTAE.

 

I just found out that Jake Ploeger is leaving the station.

 

ploeger

 

Just to make it clear he is not leaving as a budget cut which led to the departure of Jon Burton, but he’s going to work for his Father-in-law, Cliff Rowe at P.J. Dick Incorporated, Trumbull Corporation and Lindy Paving. Rowe is the CEO for the companies.

 

Ploeger started at the station in 2000 as a sports reporter and moved to anchor of the weekend newscasts in 2002.

 

Lately he’s been doing sport segments due the short staffed sports department and will continue to fill-in during his last weeks at the station.

 

According to his bio on WTAE’s website The Pittsburgh Channel:

 

Ploeger says one of the best aspects of his job is that he does something different every day, and that means he has a chance to meet a lot of people throughout the region. Some of the memorable stories he has worked on include the Quecreek mine rescue, the homecoming of Pfc. Jessica Lynch and the Sago mine disaster.

 

 

He was also a local reporter as he grew up in the North Hills it says.

 

My take:

 

Like I said before when I wrote about Jon Burton, it’s always sad to see someone you see on TV everyday leave. I’m glad this wasn’t a budget move and I hope this move will be good for Ploeger.

 

I’ve enjoyed watching Ploeger as both a sport report and an anchor. I think WTAE has the best weekend broadcast with Ploeger and Shannon Perrine. They always seemed really comfortable with each other and the camaraderie was there. I guess you can say I’m a sucker for a little fluff and light conversation between anchors and WTAE as always pulled that off better than the other two stations.

 

I will say I’m not sure what’s going on at WTAE lately as it seems people are dropping like flies, but for now I will say it’s just “the business,” and this is most likely a personal decision by Ploeger, but he will be missed.

 

You can read more in the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette.

Remember That Show…Clarissa Explains It All

Thursday, January 8th, 2009

Happy Thursday!

Just a little background on this. Right after I graduated college I had a blog. I killed it off in early 2006 but one of the popular things I wrote about was shows from when I was younger so I thought I’d bring some of them over here.

Welcome to the first “Remember that Show: Clarissa Explains It All”

Theme song please!

[youtube=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-S8cs8_8XHQ&hl=en&fs=1]

This Nick show was produced at Nickelodeon Studios at Universal Studios in Orlando Florida that is what it said at the end of each show. Boy have times changed since Nick is out of the Universal area and nothing is produced there anymore. I remember talking a tour of the studios back in 1994 when they were still shooting this. Now it’s a theater with a show from The Blue Man Group.

1056345190_esclarissa
This show ran for 5 seasons and produced 65 episodes and was about teenage life. Dealing with parents, siblings, friends and feelings Clarissa talks directly to the audience in an attempt to, I can’t believe I’m writing this, explain it all.

It was a good show; after all it ran 5 seasons on a network when 2-3 was usually the max.

Clarissa was of course played by Melissa Joan Hart who because of this show shot up into stardom, well stardom-ish career. 

After the show ended she tried some TV movies then came back in “Sabrina the Teenage Witch” and made some funny teen movies like “10 Things I hate About You.”

What else to I remember about this show, well her neighbor, Sam, never used the door and always climbed through Clarissa window. Then she had a pet alligator that she kept in her room in a kiddy pool named Elvis.

clarissa

Then there was her brother Ferguson, who was her arch rival, then her mom with a health nut boarder line hippie. Well if memory serves me correctly her parents once were hippies in there younger days. This fact was alluded to several times.

This show was one of many I watched when Nick was, well at least to me, good. I’ll write about more Nick show, so don’t worry about that I was a big “Pete and Pete” fan. Oh, Mr. Tasty where have you gone? Oops! GOt nostalgic  there.

The good news is that “Clarissa Explains It All” is available on DVD and you can enjoy all the Nick goodness it once was.

Local News "Swings," Misses and Induces Baby Vomit

Tuesday, November 25th, 2008

Tuesday morning and I am tired and bored at work. You gotta love these holiday week though as things seem to slow down day by day. Today should be busy and so should tomorrow, well, in the morning at least. But we’ll see because at 8:45 I still got nothing to do, which is kinda odd.

 

But what can you do except wait and blog.

 

Local news can be entertaining at times. Here in Pittsburgh it’s no exception, as November sweeps come to it’s final weeks we’ve been getting the usual does of consumer reports stories, the “As Seen on TV” testing of infomercial products, the city council member who is leaving work early to go shopping (Now say in that fear striking voice of disapproval) “YOUR DIME”. Yes it’s redundant, and we’ll see the same stories in February, but the public eats up these stories along with anything Steelers, Penguins related. Sorry Pirates no one cares.

 

It’s all fluff, but people like fluff. But then you get that one news station that pulls out the oddest story and uses it as an investigative report. That odd story belongs to WPXI Channel 11, who by the way prides themselves on “no fluff” newscasts, for a deeper investigation of the “Swinging in Pittsburgh” story. And no this is not a revival of swing dancing…well maybe some people call it that but this is no “Dancing with the Stars” or “So You Think You Can Dance” stuff.

 

A few months ago there was a story of a “church” filing for some kind of legal permit or something to operate. Well it turns out it was a “church” for swinging. When I first heard the story I lol’d and said whatever. Every news station had there off-camera interviews, the no face interviews and the, what I call, “dark shadows, change my voice” interviews. I sort of laughed it off because in the back of my mind I found it funny. Apparently there were people, as usual, appalled by something like this going on in their town. The kicker is they all new it was going on but no one said anything for a long time.

 

Side Note: I do not approve or condone swinging, but I am in the opinion of laughing at the nosy neighbors who probably like they idea of it, but cover it up by acting appalled, but if you want to go have a swinging time, go have fun if that’s your thing, because that’s your personal decision.

 

Before you make a decision and think it may be a sexy time, watch this story first and see if the people they interview get you hot and bothered. My guess they will make you varmitzva into tomorrow.

 

Click HERE to watch the news report.

 

OK, so honestly who made it through the whole thing without that baby throw-up feeling in you mouth and who honestly is all horned up now?

 

Ewwww that guy was just :shudder:

 

Ok, so now you know there is “Swinging in Pittsburgh,” and probably every other state in this country and maybe every country in the world to, so swinging Pittsburgh isn’t that special. If anything, some horney people know they can have random group sex somewhere in the city, so I guess you did a niche group a favor.

 

Thanks WPXI for that disturbing and laughable investigation.
