The Tribune Company Taketh Away The Worst News Program In Modern History

This weekend, we learned that the CW has been temporarily removed from our satellite provider, DIRECTV.  We learned this via word of mouth, because we really don’t watch the CW too much — only the occasional morning news (big Linda Church fans) and the 11PM hour of old sitcoms are our cup of CW tea.

We aren’t going to miss either of those moments of CW, because we can get our weather from Linda Church’s Facebook feed, and other channels have old sitcoms on in the 11PM hour.

What we are going to miss is the WGN — which is an obscure network out of Chicago that we aren’t sure why we receive due to our being in New York City.  It’s so obscure in its existence that it makes the CW seem like a major network.  And the only reason why we enjoy watching the WGN is for its local Chicago news program.

WGN News at 10ET/9PM Central, you’ll be missed, if only for your irrelevant, obscure, and 3rd rate production value, that is so bad that it makes poorly thought out failed sitcoms from the 1980s and Whitney appear to be of good value. We anxiously await your return!

Lost Inspired The Event?

We will be the first to admit that we haven’t a clue as to what the new NBC series The Event is about, but with this advertisement stating, “a desperate act will start it” we assume that The Event is an entire series that was started, or inspired by, thanks to the horrific ending that Carlton Cuse and Damon Lindelof came up with for Lost.

Either that, or the McDonald’s number that that lady is wearing inspired it… YOWZA!!!

Our Middle Aged Woman Doppelganger

We have a face that many people tend to think looks familiar.  If we had a nickel for each time that we met someone and they told us that we looked “exactly like fill in the blank person,” we’d be a millionaire.

We get that we simply have a face that looks familiar and reminiscent of other people to people, despite the fact that we actually look nothing like these supposed doppelgangers.  Having said this, over this past weekend we saw our face on CNN, only it wasn’t us on the TV, it was this lady in San Francisco.

That’s TOTALLY our face.  No kidding.  Same shape skull, same eyes, nose and mouth — the only difference being it appears as though this gal has larger ears than us.  Being shocked at how close the resemblance was, we called Fiancee over to take a look.  She laughed at how close the resemblance was to the point where she had to take a seat — this was without a doubt, a face match.

“With the hair, she looks exactly like a young version of your grandmother!”  Fiancee then said.

Who would have thought it, our doppelganger is a middle aged woman in San Francisco.  Seriously though, this gal has us thinking that she very well may likely be the daughter of a Great Half-Aunt or Great Half-Uncle of ours — so if you know this lady, have her email us.

What Happened On The Lost Finale

We should have known that the series finale of Lost was going to leave us feeling bleh about things (and it did) by watching the pilot episode.

In the pilot, there’s a major flaw in the storyline — Charlie was sitting in the front of the plane when it went down, somehow he ends up in the middle section on the ground — despite the seat that he had just been sitting in being with the pilot and the front of the plane on the other side of the island.

To answer the title question: about 56 minutes of commercial breaks.
