Five Things About TV I Am Thankful For…
By

It seems like a good time to do an inspiring post about the best things about TV. No. 1 FOX News: The liberal left can whine all it wants about FOX News being slanted to the right, but I say BIG DEAL! They’ve got all the major networks, MSNBC and CNN that all veer left.…
Will Charlie Rose, Gayle King Get Rise Out Of Morning Viewers?
By
mattaug
It will be interesting to see how the new recently announced Charlie Rose-Gayle King tandem will perform on The Early Show on CBS when the duo debut Jan 9. I’ve always liked Rose, but he’s just SO relaxed … how will that translate to morning TV when people respond the usually bright and cheery, if…
Curses! People Losing Control On TV
By

What was it about the past week or so on television? About a week and a half ago political pundit Bob Beckel lost his cool and yelled out “That’s B.S.!” (the full word) on the FOX News show The Five. If anyone was watching, of course. I am joking, sort of, though I enjoy politics…
Hate To Snicker, But Is Candy Ad Funny?
By
mattaug
I’ve been meaning to write about this one for some time, but wasn’t quite sure how to address it. Is the ad for Snickers, the one where two sharks “discuss” the difference of how people tasted, and decide the person who ate the candy bar tasted better, in bad taste, so to speak? My first…
Remember Davey and Goliath?

Remember Davey and Goliath? Now that, my friends, WAS a cartoon! Ok..credit for this post goes to a high school alumnae of mine, JoAnne, who mentioned Davy and Goliath and The Little Rascals were two shows she just couldn’t shut off as a kid. Me too, Joanne … along with Abbott and Costello and The…
Fallon, Nevada … Named After Jimmy?
By
mattaug
If Fallon, Nevada ISN’T named after Jimmy Fallon, NBC‘s late night talk show host …. well it SHOULD be! His dead-ringer impression, pardon the expression, of Jim Morrison the former front-man of The Doors is amazing. And his stint as Neil Young is pretty remarkable too. There are plenty of reasons not to admire either…
A (Howard) Stern Rebuke For NBC
By
mattaug
When I heard Piers Morgan had an announcement to make last week I was kind of hoping it would be that he is giving up his CNN talk show in order to continue on with NBC‘s America’s Got Talent. Morgan is OK on the CNN program, in fact he is fine but there’s just nothing…
I Don’t Get Dan Patrick …

“You know Matt, you’re in danger of becoming a parody of yourself,” said a relative once, in trying to hurt my feelings. I kind of know what he means, and I still do it. I press hard, sometimes too hard, for a joke. I am not yet a parody of myself though, not like John…
Penn State Should Drop College Football
By
mattaug
Having a college football program is a privilege, not a right. Some colleges, Penn State for one, should drop their college football programs IMMEDIATELY. And this is coming from someone, me, who loves sports and athletics … when they bring out the best in people. That’s the key part though …. when they bring out…
JoePa Must Go … Now!
By
mattaug
Too much has been said … and more importantly … done. Penn State football coach Joe Paterno, who reportedly will resign AFTER the season in the wake of sex abuse charges against a former assistant coach, should leave NOW. The sordid details over Jerry Sandusky’s alleged behavior so disgusting and so public why should the…
