    Any other Ghost Hunters fans?

    The show should be back around Halloween as they are doing a live event again and then running a few more "fall episodes." The show has also been renewed for a fourth season with 13 new episodes to air in 2008. Don't have the specific link for you, but there has been much talk about it on the...

    Survivor: Cook Islands

    You couldn't do final three get voted on with a 9 member jury as it could end up 3-3-3 with no tiebreaking vote. I think they have some other twist up their sleeves and I can't wait to see what it is.

    'GHOST HUNTERS Season 3' on Sci-Fi.

    Sean, I'll try to answer what I can. Pilgrim Entertainment is actually the company that produces and edits the show. Jay and Grant, from what I understand, are paid by Pilgrim and Pilgrim, in turn, are paid by Sci-Fi who airs and promotes each episode as they are given. They take their...

    'GHOST HUNTERS Season 3' on Sci-Fi.

    I managed to finally see the cord coming off the bell last night. Granted, it was a bit difficult with the resolution of that camera, but if you watch the left side of the bell, you can see it come off. In effect, it lifted almost straight up, almost like it was solid and not loose like a cable...

    Family Guy Season 5 =).

    I think my favorite part of this past FG episode was "The Ring" tape. I laughed hard when the tape was Mannequin and they cut back to Peter who was on the floor with the contorted death face from the movie. :)

    Survivor: Cook Islands

    Not Cook Islands related, but my family and I were on a flight from Washington-Dulles to Hartford, CT this past Thursday with Terry from Exile Island. I didn't approach him as I generally try not to bother celebrities, even minor ones, unless it is a situation where it is acceptable...

    Rock Star: Supernova

    Is it just me or was she out of time with the band at the beginning of the song? A few weeks ago I would have said this was Magni's to lose, but I think Toby pretty much has it in the bag if the rumors about the singer already being chosen aren't true. As far as Lukas, I agree with Newstead...

    Ghost Hunters

    I dug through the Sci-Fi schedule and it looks like the official start date for Season 3 is October 11 at 9:00 Eastern. For the DVD sets, I've seen each preorder for around $16 and change. If you get both, it would equal around 22 episodes, which would put it on par with most TV on DVD...

    Ghost Hunters

    Season 3 begins in October. The DVD sets for season 2 and 2.5 are available on Sept. 19th (separately of course :)). I am very much looking forward to the start of the new season. This has become one of the weekly "must-watch" shows for us.

    TNT HD - Why are they stretching the non-wide programming?

    I've never had this happen with my local Fox affiliate. New and rerun/syndicated episodes of 4X3 content are always shown with black bars on the sides. I wonder if it is different from affiliate to affiliate.

    Rock Star: Supernova

    No matter what I think of the performances from show to show, the one thing I look forward to week in and week out is the House Band. Those guys are amazing! As far as the Supernova song last night, it left the worst kind of impression on me...no impression. I honestly can't tell you whether...

    PQ in SD

    I have the Samsung HL-S5086W DLP and while HD almost always looks amazing, the SD stuff through my cable provider is a mixed bag. A good portion of the stuff on the digital teir looks either good or very good depending on the channel and the amount of compression TWC decides to use. The basic...

    Best 50-52 in DLP?

    I got the Samsung HL-S5086W 720P DLP about a month ago and love it. It should be readily available in your price range. I am using it for a balance between SD/HD cable through TWC, SD-DVDs and Xbox360 gaming. Performs flawlessly with all.

    Opinions: Samsung DLP or Sony WEGA?

    I don't think I would consider buying an RPTV as a floor model due to the bulb issue. Unless, of course, the warranty (included or extended) includes bulb replacement.

    What screen technology, DLP, LCD, Plasma, etc., HDTV in is better for video games?

    Yikes...good to know. I am within the 30 day return window on the Sammy and had toyed with the idea after the first couple of weeks of returning it for an LCoS unit just to see which one I liked better. I am now right at about a month and am loving the quality of the DLP unit even more than when...

    What screen technology, DLP, LCD, Plasma, etc., HDTV in is better for video games?

    I play console games (Xbox360) on a Samsung HL-S5086W (DLP) and it is virtually flawless. I haven't noticed any lag or pixel breakup at all. I am using a VGA cable from the 360 to the Sammy with the console outputting 1280x720 (never have had to use the game mode).

    Best Bang for the Dollar in DLP - Help!

    I too put my vote in for this set. I just picked it up and I find the picture excellent. :D

    'GHOST HUNTERS' Season 2 on Sci-Fi.

    I've been a huge fan of this show since season 1 and was very pleased with the Season Finale! Good news over at the official TAPS website...as posted by Jason: Another bit of interesting news is that they are going to be going overseass for the next season. Can't wait to see what they...

    American Idol - Season 5

    I would have to agree. That's a pretty gutsy (or should I say "ballsy" :)) song choice for her.

    American Idol - Season 5

    USA Today has an article posted with a list of all songs being performed tonight and by whom. Some interesting choices in there to say the least. This also confirms one rumor from an earlier post (I'll not say in case people want to be surprised). Here is the link to the article...

    Lost Season 1 ongoing thread (merged)

    Yeah, Dini was co-writer last night with his name appearing second. I didn't have much problem with the moth metaphor. Given the situation Charlie was in, I felt it was appropriate and, for the most part, handled well. As far as the flashback issues and moving the story forward, I am...

    Lost Season 1 ongoing thread (merged)

    This week's episode is being scripted by Paul Dini. I loved his work on Batman The Animated Series (and Mask of the Phantasm). Very interested to see what he does with this material.

    The Survivor 9: Vanuatu Discussion Thread

    Good point. I had actually started to like Amy over the course of the past few weeks, but last night showed me a side of her that has completely turned me off to her as someone I would like to see win. The coconut thing was really ridiculous and I am not sure how keeping that a secret was going...

    Lost Season 1 ongoing thread (merged)

    Not sure if this was mentioned before (and I apologize if it has), but I was perusing Aint It Cool News this morning and ran across an interview with Damon Lindelof, the series co-creator/co-show runner. Here is a quick exchange that got my gears turning: I never really thought until seeing...

    CSI: Season 5 thread

    Looking forward to tonight's premiere. The only thing that worries me is the prospect of having too many plotlines going at once. Gonna put this in spoilers as I am not sure how common knowledge this is. From what I have read, there are going to be 4 murders, a proficiency test for the...

    Lost Season 1 ongoing thread (merged)

    IIRC, the pilot they found in the cockpit mentioned that they eventually lost all communications on the flight (can't remember if he said all instruments or not). And, the transeiver was also not working correctly. I imagine that whatever is out in the jungle, or the very nature of the island...
