Watch House Season 5 online... FINALLY!

So I unfortunately have missed most of Season 5 of House MD and haven't found any place to stream it online other than the 5 episodes on Fox.com / Hulu / Fancast. I bought a few on iTunes, but it gets pricey.

I Googled it a little bit earlier today and finally found this:

FreeEpisodesOnline.net: House (Season 5)

Will it soon just be Kate and the 8?

The only times I have ever watched TLC's hit series Jon & Kate Plus 8 has been while I was sitting on the coach next to a significant other, as was the case last night during the season 5 premier. It's not that it's a bad show, I mean the kids are cute and hilarious, but it just has never been something that really interested me, but I might start paying attention now that things are starting to get controversial.

As I'm sure most everyone knows by now thanks to the tabloids, husband and father Jon Gosselin has been caught by the paparazzi leaving night clubs and parties with female companions other than his wife Kate. Now I am not the one to judge whether the allegations are true or not on if he did in fact commit adultery, but the unknown of his actions could possibly lead to the show's demise.

In last night's season 5 premier there was only one time that Jon and Kate were both interviewed simultaneously, which was a brief 2 minute segment following the main show when the interviewer asked the two what would happen from here. Despite the camera trying to frame the couple with close-ups using opposite thirds in their interviews as if they were sitting on the other side of the couch from the other, we never saw them together throughout the entire episode other than at the sextuplets 5th birthday party and the only words I remember Kate speaking to Jon at that party were asking him to clean the water out of one of the "Jupiter jumps."

It really was painful to watch. Kate went on and on about how she had to plan the entire party herself, implying that Jon wasn't even willing to help. The paparazzi even started taking over the show, placing themselves in every scene that took place on public property... Even the kids said "there's the paparazzi!" (or they at least attempted to before Kate told them to be quiet and stop acknowledging the camera clickers).

I'm sorry to say, but this show is in trouble, Kate has expressed how much she loves doing the show and having the family's life broadcasted across the country while Jon does not seem happy with the way things have turned out over the past five years. While it's true that all families have issues to deal with, that's not why people tune in to TLC and watch the Gosselins. If we want to see a house of chaos, we tune into MTV's Real World, not Jon & Kate Plus 8.

I am starting to wonder how much longer Jon will stick around and if he does decide to bounce, whether or not the show will be able to continue with Kate doing everything herself. This really is the closest thing to the Truman Show we have and America wants to see these kids grow up, the only question is whether or not TLC will let the show go on...

The very first post

What's up. Welcome to my new home on the Internet to review the latest in video games, film and television. Now you might be asking why the hell would you care about what I have to say and the truth is I have no good reason... This is just another in a long line of blogs on the web dedicated to one person's opinion in the latest in "pop culture" (I hate that term). But look, you're already here, why not look around a bit and see if there's anything you like or dislike that you can make fun for me for.

Now before we go any further, I would like to state that I am not a "video game rager." I'm not good at going off at inanimate objects, I'm good at going off at people every once in a while, but not at video games; I leave that to the "god of raging," Mr. James Rolfe (AKA the Angry Video Game Nerd). Now don't get me wrong, sometimes I will get heated on a subject, but I won't dedicate any reviews to how sucky something is unless it is a genuine piece of shit.

Right now I am still editing a bunch of BS code for this Blogger page, but stick with me as I hope to have it all ironed out soon.

So just sit back, relax, and let the reviews begin.
