New Shows

I tries watching some new shos this week . This is my opinion of them :

1. Nine - Not enough action . Becomes very boring after few commercials . I just switch to other show . Grade - D

2. Heroes - Some interesting portions . Can be promising I though if one has the patience . There are different stars/story lines so the show can be interesting one second and not the next . Grade -C+

3. Kidnapped - It' the 3rd week that I've seen the show . Every episode has been good so far . Having Timothy Hutton definitely did not hurt . At least there is a movie star in this new TV series. I noticed that the first 2 shows featurer some recycled TV stars. Grade - A-

4. Smith - Again this show is its 3rd week . So far so good . Every week is a new caper for the gang which is led magnificently by Ray Liotta . Also Virginia Madsen as his wife is there too.
The show is Ocean Eleven in week i , 12 in week 2 and so on. Grade - A+

Finally , My Sattelite Is Up

Yessirieeee. After a long wait , the dish is installed . I will be able to watch my fav shows in HBO , Espn , Fox etc. It's just in time for the start of the NBA in a few week's time . I tested it last night but I still have to master the remote . So for now , I just channel surf . It's great .I hope the Sopranos will start soon .
The baseball playoffs are starting but I don't watch it until the World Series starts . I'm sure the Yankees will be there . Although the Mets are an interesting bunch this year . Maybe a subway series is in the offing . Lost premiere is today but I don't follow it . I am too far behind to start now .

It's Alfonso !

The winner of the Celebrity Duets is not other than the guy from Fresh Prince From Bel Air . Not Will Smith of course but his TV cousin . He beat sexy Lucy in a tightly and exciting contest . The winner gets 1000,00 dollars donations to a charity of his choice . Cool . What about a recording contract , huh Simon ?
Actually , Alfonso was the most consistent of all the participants . Lucy was great in the latter stages of the show but Alfonso was equally great too especially his duet with Gladys Knight. I wonder if there would be a 2ng edition of this entertaining show . I bet lots of stars will want to let themselves in. Advice to the producers of the show : Do not get has beens or no name stars .
