It’s funny, but is it going to get them off their tractors?

Why Fox? Why are you such an ass? I mean, I love House as much as the next guy. I love Hugh Laurie. I wish we were best friends really. But do we need 3 hours of House this week, 2 being repeats? Just show the remaining 2 episodes of Arrested Development. Don’t be a [...]

The best television show about cars is not Motorweek on PBS like some believe, it is Top Gear. Top Gear is hosted by Jeremy Clarkson, Richard Hammond (also hosts Brainiac), and James May. And unlike most car show hosts, they’re not boring. Just take a look at Jeremy Clarkson’s Wikipedia Entry. That liveliness is translated [...]

One of my favorite bits on Letterman is “Will It Float?” It’s a simple game, usually Dave and Paul take a guess whether the item in question will float, then it gets dropped in a tank of water, and we find out if it floats. Simple enough. During the introduction, Dave usually quips that they [...]

Arrested Development Season 3 is cut to 13 episodes, and Kitchen Confidential is cancelled. Here is David Cross explaining the situation so elegantly From AD Season 2 DVDs, which you all should’ve bought, like 3 times over. <p class=”center”><a href=”#” onclick=”clic()”><img src=”http://static.flickr.com/32/63030064_249a6f6ffa.jpg” name=”ad” alt=”Click Me”></a></p>

That Fresh Feeling

By raishad | Published: November 8, 2005

Raishad.com has went under the knife and came out looking like a million bucks. Long was working on a theme, but I decided to trash all his hard work and steal this theme, Almost Spring. I modified it a bit, and I think it looks pretty good. I added some calendars, navigation links, and tweaked [...]

I don’t wanna explode

What a crappy cover for such a great movie. “Experience The Ultimate Action Adventure”, what a cheesy tagline. Any of the movie posters would’ve been a better cover. I guess the good news to take from this is that the DVD is being released on December 20th. There is more info and menu screenshots at [...]

As you all know, I am from the Caribbean paradise of Trinidad and Tobago, and whenever it gets mentioned in the media, good or bad, I get excited. Here’s a clip from The Daily Show last week, BTW, Jon is right

Avatar: The Last Airbender is the best cartoon on Nickelodeon. You should all be watching it, that is if you like good television. It would be easy to dismiss Avatar as an attempt to cash in by ripping off those long-running “quest type” Japanese animes. It’s easy because it shares so many similarities. But if [...]

Have you been watching The Colbert Report? It’s absolutely wonderful. Wonderful, and it’s only been 4 episodes. At first I was worried about the “Stephen Colbert” character. I mean could he carry a show? Would it become stale? Then all my questions disappeared in a flash of brilliance,
