ALL T.V.

TELEVISION SHOWS in today's generation relied too much in REALITY, without any script at all. Is that good?

You wont believe but looks like million TV viewers not only like such reality but they love them. For the viewers it's more closer to home, without script and without inhibitions. But maybe some swear words are edited for some restricted ratings so that it could be a general patronage.

X FACTOR the television's mostly viewed for this week because of how cunning and frank that guy Simon Cowell is. I like Simon, he is not afraid to say what's in his mind. He says what 's in his thoughts without even thinking and that's what he is paid for. People who are conservative and has reservations or discreet will oppose him but those ratio are the only fews against so many as in probably hundreds over hundred millions. So he is winning in judging each contestants. Britney and Demi are neophytes when it comes to judging. LA Reidd is the serious judge in that singing competition. Last night's episode is a mellow-dramatic scenes of singers who are "tear jerkers." The crying ladies are the ones who are to be seen in the next episodes because they are not only great in dramatic scenes but because their voice is so good and can touch every viewers with emotional hearts. Yes dudette you need to have a heart to cry. With 5 MILLION DOLLARS at stake? You can do whatever you want to get the prize if need be. FIVE MILLION DOLLARS!!!!!!!!? Really? What could be the criteria to win that >>> millions?


TWO MILLION DOLLARS not ONE MILLION dollars winning prize for AMAZING RACE a journey around the world, trivia, survival, drama and comedy combined and what else is new in this mega hit longest running TV SHOW on earth? We'll find that out on it's season premiere at the end of this month.

SURVIVOR: PHILIPPINES. Finally survivor show is now in Philippines. One of the contestant in that episode had splinters on his hands when he cut bamboos. The bamboos were used for their shelter. At least! In previous shows they only had stick, branches and twigs.  He should use a saw instead it would be easier. Anyway, I don't think they are equipped with saw. It's survival the theme motto ok. The teams are divided into Team Kalabaw, Team Sarimanok, and Team Matsing. In this show's episode they have to get the paddles from the top of the man-made tower then use the paddle for their boats (canoes) then dive underwater to retrieve the box with big puzzles (dunno if its made of plastic or wood) maybe it's plastic because if its wood I don't know how the girls can pick it up so easily. From those puzzles (blocks) they arranged them up to build a tower. The contest or competition is somewhat determined by TIME. Whoever finished first with the task. Zane was booted off the island. The usual theme of this competition is similar to my daughter's favorite animated cartoon show "TOTAL DRAMA ISLAND."

THE VOICE. The show is based on singing voice as in listening to a radio not video or TV. Blind judging. I don't know if I like it but it's good for so many singers with good voice they wont be judged according to their personality and appearance.

VICTORIOUS. I really like this television show. The cast is genius. Uhm...Each actor and actress can act without script. It's good for the teens. My daughter and I love the show no matter what but I find Tori over-acting sometimes. She should not dance too much when she's singing it's annoying.

Trading today? All RED! Few greens.

Looking forward to watch RESIDENT EVIL: RETRIBUTION. I heard it's the number one blockbuster movie this week. Of course when it's Milla Jovovich it must be good. Action thriller , suspense, mystery...ah mystery? We know that it's about zombies right? I wonder what the armor this time and what else is new?

NEW. NEW. NEW. We need something NEW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The Latest NEWS On TV

It's not rumors after all when the news is all over the world about Prince William and Lady Kate were photographed naked while on vacation in France.
REALLY?!!! SO WHAT??????????!

With all powerful zoom lens? How far it can go? How far it can take? Telescopic zoom lens eyeing for stars?

They are humans after all. You can reach them. You can touch them. So what else is new? When can we see the true real GOD? Where is GOD? Is there heaven? Because we're all in purgatory!

IT Could Happen To You

I seldom blog here but would love to blogpost something when I see some movies worth watching and worthy of review, just my own opinion about the story and cast of characters. Recently, I watched a movie of Kevin Kline, in his portrayal as a teacher in a highly respected institution known as Saint Benedict's school for boys. It was an old school, very traditional conservative way of teaching is implemented. Kevin the teacher has taught so many vital information in his class including the list of emperors during the Roman Empire. Well the story has something to do with "Emperors" right as it is the movie's title THE EMPEROR's CLUB. Then one day, a late comer arrived at his class and he was accepted by teacher. He seems arrogant yet so frank and answer to questions directly without wasting any time at all. Though the answers were actually incorrect and he becomes the light of the club > class sort of ice breaker. The point is that's not what conservative OLD SCHOOL is. The teacher likes him the very first time he met him at his class and it turned out that the boy was a son of a government official. Hmmm...sounds like a similar situation I encountered when I was in elementary school. Anyway, it's very interesting to know how the teacher able to set him free from the guilt of being responsible to the "conspiracy" as he later been relieved that the rest of the classmates of that boy conspired to that kind of  "legacy been started by old ancient emperors before." You know them all right? You can begin knowing them from the Holy Bible. Now who's the only living emperor? Do you know?

Lesson: No school will ever be built without the support of wealthy individuals who support or give donations to make education better and productive. (Really? Am I correct there? Or just trying to make things easier not to provoke?) Truth is the schools are built by public funding through the help of the government. Most of the schools in public are owned by government and fully funded. Though teachers cannot approve of that because of "small funding." As if not enough. Private schools are different, most of the funding are derived from loopholes or donations from rich people. Why rich people donate? Is that duty or obligation or they have conscience? Or because their sons and daughters attend that school? Or they are members of the club or stockholders? It's easy to find out. Knowledge is power...however >  Somebody's medal or certificate can be stolen or given to somebody else whose donation exceeds and can manipulate the outcome of every test or exams. In that particular movie which made me furious and sad for students who deserved the mark. However when the students also are "infected" to the conspiracy what can you do? They are PAID at least! Would you like to be out of place and be not paid at all? So the theme is they are already WORKING. They are paid to that conspiracy. Better than be a volunteer eh?


The point is it's a crying game for those who are really intelligent and or smart but don't have money to support their education. Shame! Shame!

Are We Raising So Many Brats In Our Generation?

An old lady who posed as a school bus monitor for grade school kids received a reward. Wow! That's the prize of bullying!? She was bullied by unruly wicked kids and then it was seen, viewed in the internet so many times by million of viewers. A good samaritan who acted as fundraiser raised monies for that old lady. Well another Rosa Parks version. Great! Why do kids so bratty and wicked acting so mean with that old woman? Why is she not being respected at all by elementary school children? Are the kids so bad in this time ? In this generation? Do we have so many brats?????

Who's to be blamed for this? Are the parents to be blamed or the school teacher? Or the government? Who we need to blame for having so many bullies and brats? Do you think it also because of too much technology and children are so hyper and they only listen to the machines? They are so WIRED to high technology. You don't take drugs nor take maryjane but too much light act as drugs too. Modern Technology can take you higher and to the high speed. No doubt!

ShowBiz

Sunod-sunod ang mga popular television shows, nag umpisa na ang masigabong competition habang patapos na ang pinaka-finale ng MASTERCHEF series. So it was Kristine Ha who won the title Masterchef. When it comes to presentation and attractiveness of how gourmet food looks like, ala French style cuisine magaling si Josh Marks. The three judges were impressed on his stylish presentation as classic chef in a five star hotel restaurant. They love his ice cream. But the rest of the food they seemed to argue and looked at each other. Then when it comes to Kristine Ha's typical oriental cuisine, the presentation is somewhat un-attractive. It's not impressive. Truth is just ordinary so-so blah style however it's the "flavor" of the food that she cooked that made the three judges that put her over the edge against Josh. FLAVOR > the taste of the food!!!!!!!!!

You as a customer what really is your opinion when you go to the restaurant? What are your choices?

First, you want to go to the restaurant because you are tired of cooking and bored about eating the same kind of food. Choosing a restaurant to go to and spend an hour sitting or less than that and be served with delicious meal is great. Then you want to go back there because you love their food. DELICIOUS FOOD cooked by their chef or line cook. Others preferred to be in their favorite restaurant because of its great service. All the waitress and waiters are polite, courteous and knew how to entertain their customers really well as if they had their SERVE IT RIGHT certificate.

For the most part customers would like to enjoy delicious affordable kind of food that will fill their stomach without breaking their wallet. That even if you go home the food stays there in your tummy as a sign that you are satisfied from you have eaten.

Anyway, congratulations to Kristine.

Next TV Shows that are in competition with the same time broadcast last nite: Hell's Kitchen, THE VOICE, next is the SURVIVOR Philippines edition and sooner than later the X FACTOR of Simon Cowell.

THE VOICE show is somewhat weird. The 4 judges: Christina Aguilera, Blake, Adam Levine, Ceelo have to listen to the contestants voice first without seeing the singer then they have to choose that person on stage depends on how much they like the voice of the contestant. Really?! One contestant didn't have that recorded song or I mean  singing live I think and he was not chosen. That's the awful thing about such show. Anybody can fool them by using pre recorded song and somebody can lip-synched it on stage and they can vote on that person without seeing and what happened after that? Sort of a pre-halloween trick or treat eh? Or maybe, maybe they were already auditioned before. They were really singer and they have to revive their career. What could be? Anyway, television viewers are not stupid you know. Before computers were invented TELEVISIONS there already to act as your guide to information technology. So don't blame me and millions of TV viewers.

In American idol and Canadian idol show > all contestants have to sing live using their own voice or singing with their own musical instrument of choice which is a good thing otherwise why get somebody who lip-synched? Maybe you can do that when you are very popular like Britney Spears. However her talent for dancing and sexyness is what her fans really like   including her pretty face.

Magshopping Ka Naman

Nagshopping ka na ba sa Staples? Sa Canada lang ata may store na Staples. Meron na rin ba sa Amerika?

Kakaiba ang feeling pag nagshopping ka sa store nila lalo na sa bandang electronics. Masyadong maingay ang machines nila. Laging may nagkiclick at nagbebeep. Maximum overdrive na ata sila doon.

Then magshop ka naman sa Radioshack grabe na rin. Hindi ako makahinga doon. Amoy electronics. Muntik na akong masuka!!!! Siguro dahil maliit lang ang space sa store nila kaya yung amoy ng mga computer, radio, telephone, cellphones, laptop, notebook talaga namang amoy na amoy electronics.

Siyanga pala pag may computer ka sa loob ng bahay or sa loob ng cuarto mo kailangan meron kang fan or the room is aircon para hindi mag overheat ang computer. Paalala lang dahil para kasing oven yang computer. So konting ingat.

Then bigla mong buksan ang door ng Winners. Shock!!!! Grabe! Ang bantot! Ah siyanga pala pulos leather ang tinda nila. Mga original leather bags, shoes and mga clothes nila ay orig din. Kaya ganun. Mabantot!

Maselan masyado ang pang-amoy ko. Malayo ka palang amoy na kita. Ha ha ha! Ewan ko ba. Sensitive ang sense of smell ko siguro dahil medyo malabo na ang mata ko. Pero minsan perfect eyesight and vision ako. Ah kasi kailangan ko ng eye-mo once in a while.

Sabi nga nila pag malabo daw ang mata mo perfect ang pang-amoy mo. Tutuo nga! Salamat naman. Perfect din ang pang amoy ko pag something fishy na ang labanan sa internet, sa facebook at sa blogging community. Bakit kasi highly competitive kasi ang labanan dito maski sa mga television networks sa dami ng channels ngayon na umaabot sa 4,000 channels lalo na yung may satellite dish pa sa wall ng mga kapit-bahay tyak yun ang TV channels nila abot hanggang Nevada and Arizona. Siguro wala pa silang "no signal" or there's no ghost on tv screen. Maraming ghost kasi pag malalaki at matataas ang gusali. Hmm, bakit ba napunta sa ghost?

Malapit na ulit ang Halloween siempre pang batang celebration yan. Ewan ko kung type kong magjoin pero...puede na rin.

Something Very Interesting

Nanood ba kayo ng MASTERCHEF kagabi? Kristine, Josh, Becky > the remaining contestants in that blockbuster televsion show. Akala ko kagabi ang pinaka finale. Hindi pala. May kasunod pa palang episode yun. Grabe naman. So next week uli ang final finale. Becky's out and only Josh (once a military guy), then Kristine (with special needs? or handicap?) It seems unfair that Becky was out of the contest. Well she was promised by the chef of Hell's Kitchen of a job offer in a restaurant and that was good assurance that she did a great job. Sometimes when work becomes odd and there is so much challenges and oddity there you'll see which one who really passed the test. If only the test is about the same for every cook. This is true in the sense that even in schools when students are to take the same kind of test, the same kind of subject but test are different for each student and for every individual. That's how tough it is.

In Masterchef show Becky was the last to have the chance to cook something that she haven't try yet. Since it was Kristine who was asked first which of the uncooked meat : chicken, beef oxtails, or frogs she wants to cook and present and serve to the 3 judges...she had chosen the chicken meat. Then Josh had the option to cook oxtails and unfortunately Becky had no other choice but to cook the frogs.

This kind of oddity in testing cook, students or workers depend on the person's talents and ability. Examiners wont test a person's IQ or ability if that person wont ever cope up or has no ability or capacity to know that testing is simply a matter of formality. It's all black and white out there but anyway WHO CARES? It's just a show. Don't they have script? Is it scripted? That's what happened in front of the camera, on television, in movies there's always a SCRIPT.

Life's real issue when it's really REALITY and you are not in real movies, you are not an actor nor an actress everything is not fun and everything is real and it's your own drama and comedy. Well only YOU know what life is anyway. I know not cool! Not cool when you're in front of the camera and people look at you like you have to be smart and hope to God that nobody will shame you or put you in a very provocative way. Well thank the Lord God if you're not a celebrity but an ordinary human being because in real life to each his own or her own. Your life's not my life.

What so funny about the food they cooked?

The chicken is filled with crumbs and they looked so dry. The judges said it's crumbly but soft tender inside?

Then the oxtails looked weird. It's like covered with sponge with sauce. Is it spongey or fat? Like a spongey caulliflower hahahaha. It was cooked on pressurized cooker and it shows tiny meat but bigger portion of fat? What? That's how it's viewed on television screen. Fat should melt after it's been cooked. How come that oxtails are strange!
-------------------------------------------------------------
Reminds me of the cuttlefish or squid I bought at the local supermarket and cooked it with coconut milk. I was cooking the squid and I found it hard to make that squid softer and tender than it should be. It was unusually tough. There is something wrong. It was tough like rubber! Actually it was fake squid. Shocking eh? Who the hell sells fake squid? Why? What for?
-------------------------------------------------------------

The frogs looked like small chicken legs and fried on small amount of oil while the potatoes were soggy soaked on hot oil. But the judges said the frogs are delicious. Yuck!

The judges thought and tested the food they cooked are delicious so they based their judgment on presentation. Becky lose her chance on cooking fish sauce (from scratch leaving small portion of fish) on her first trial test. You can have a bottle of fish sauce and have bigger portion of fish.

Who will win next time? Josh or Kristine? Be the judge or judge them for yourself.
