I’m sorry that you won’t be
seeing my post about last week’s episode for a while. There were issues with my
TV tuner. It made the perfectly good channel come in all glitchy so I recorded
it on VHS. This means that I’m now two episodes off with the Good Wife blog of
mine until I get caught up on tapes. Meanwhile, I’ll be creating a new blog in
the future (or past, since it can be awhile before you see updates here) about
the show CSI: Cyber and I have no idea just how disconnected these blog posts
will be with each other. I’ll never know when I’ll update any of them, except
for my Survivor blog which remains updated every Wednesday (typically, at
least).
My TV show watching has been
affected by me adding a second list of shows to watch and alternating between
the two lists. This is mainly so I can watch Survivor: Palau on DVD and update
my TV blog every time I roll and watch an episode of that. Seems interesting
that watching a Survivor episode would cause me to update my TV blog, but
that’s the kind of weird person that I am. Anyways, you may be interesting in
knowing that I will still move what shows I can from the newer list to that
list. This means that once Survivor: Palau is on the older list, I will get rid
of the newer list until I start watching another Survivor season on DVD again.
Meanwhile, you might be
wondering about what Thanksgiving episodes I’ll have to watch. If I can get the
right shows watched beforehand, I will want to see the first season
Thanksgiving episode of 8 Simple Rules. They did a Thanksgiving episode every
season. Meanwhile, I’ll also have to watch the season 7 NCIS Thanksgiving
episode sometime this month. I will not have to roll for it. I’ll just have to
watch it at my earliest convince. I think that season was the first time they
did a Thanksgiving episode on NCIS. But I’m not entirely sure about that. I did
watch the episode and will wait to watch the Christmas episode right after
before adding it back to the list.
I tune into my FOX affiliate
and see that they aren’t showing football so this won’t affect shows on their
network at all. My ABC affiliate is coming in. Hopefully this will stay coming
in and won’t affect my shows at all. Now
with a football doubleheader today, I tune into my primary CBS affiliate and
they are on commercials right now. I check my secondary CBS affiliate and they
are also on commercial. The game is between the Broncos and the Colts. Or, at
least I think the team from Denver is the Broncos. The epg says that shows will
be half an hour behind today. But, will it be just half an hour or will it last
longer? The Colts are winning. It appears that both of my CBS affiliates are
showing the same game. Meanwhile, Christmas commercials have started and I have
to add them to my list as it isn’t December just yet.
The scores changes so that the
score is tied as it was before the Colts got ahead. I watch a Simpsons rerun in
the meantime. I check back the time of the game again and the score is still
tied. The score changes and this puts the Colts in the lead again. I switch
back to the Simpsons. The Colts are still winning when I check the score again.
I have the feeling that the
game will last longer than 6:30 Central. Remember, the game would actually have
to end at 6:26 or sooner in order for the delay to be exactly half an hour
behind because they have to air four minutes of commercials after the game
finishes for some odd reason.
The Simpsons ends and I will
probably watch what I can of Bob’s Burgers. I still don’t know if I’m ever
going to create a blog about that show or not. What I do know is that it is one
of the few shows that’s already renewed for next season. Meanwhile, I will have
to create at least 25 posts of my CSI: Cyber blog before that can happen. And I
haven’t started that blog yet, although I will. I don’t know if the episode
from tonight will be blogged about yet.
The game has ended on CBS. I’m
guessing that the Colts won, although I haven’t seen the final score just yet.
Meanwhile, I’ll have to figure out what shows to record on what mediums since
shows are a bit off of the planned delay. I just want to make sure that at
least CSI: Cyber is on tape so I can blog about that episode later. Today’s
episode will be on the laptop as that was my best option this time. Also, I’ll
be sure to post updates on TV shows on DVD that I’m watching when/if there is
something to update you about it.
Today’s episode is brought to
you by 36 minute delay. We begin with a video of a person being killed. The
killer wants to get rid of all American aid workers in this country that he’s
in. We also see more of the Russian kid whose name I can’t remember.
In segment two, Elizabeth’s
brother comes to visit. He is here because of the international crisis. It
seems like every episode has an international crisis. I guess they have to, but
that doesn’t happen in real life. It’s hard to sum up most of what happens.
In segment three, there is
more between Elizabeth and her brother. They go fishing using strange poles.
Henry also deals with more relating to his Russian students. The one named Ivan
is possibly gay and he wants to avoid problems that it might cause. Can you
really kill someone for being gay in Russia? While some people may find this
country to not like gays, at least we don’t kill people for being that way. Ivan
decides to commit suicide.
In segment four, Henry deals
with more of the Russian students of his. They are able to track down the ISIS
terrorist who was responsible for killing the American. Many people gather in
the situation room and watch the situation unfold.
In segment five, while
Elizabeth wants to try to capture this terrorist, the orders are given to take
it out. Jason has a strange reaction to it. He gets all excited. Elizabeth
talks more to her brother about what has happened. There’s not much to say
here.
On the next Madam Secretary, there
is a former racial crisis being brought to light again. You do have to wonder
if sometimes they overuse current events in TV shows episodes. I guess as long
as they do it well it is fine, but it’s hard to tell for sure why they do this
so much. Of course, if I had a show, I’d probably use current events in it.
Well, they were at least once current events. But that’s enough of that. For
now, this is Adam Decker signing off.
