When NBC dedicated an hour of its nightly prime-time lineup to “The Jay Leno Show,” filmed in a Burbank studio, it made a gamble that its move would pay off by replacing expensive scripted dramas with a lower-cost ratings grabber.

But prime-time shows may have got the last laugh, Los Angeles Times television critic Mary McNamara writes.

There they sit with “The Jay Leno Show,” TV’s equivalent of that famous “Dewey Defeats Truman” headline, having called time of death on scripted drama and indeed traditional network television while all around them great new shows are popping up like the plague victim in “Monty Python and the Holy Grail.” “I’m not dead,” says ABC with its new comedy lineup; “I’m getting better,” says CBS with “The Good Wife” and “NCIS: Los Angeles.” “I think I’ll go for a walk,” adds Fox with the runaway buzz generator “Glee.”

Meanwhile, NBC is hanging on with critical-maybe “Community” and on-the-bubble “Mercy”; the network was forced to “cancel” “Trauma,” even though it’s not really canceled per se, because there is literally nothing to replace it.

This is what happens when you panic — you leave your combat buddy for dead only to find he wasn’t, and then he comes back for revenge. Network TV — it’s aaalllliiiivvvee.

Here are the cool cards Mario sent when I finally got off my lazy butt and sent him a SASE:

First the 2009 Upper Deck Football Heroes...

I’m trying to spread the love by sending and trading most of the cards received from Mario to those who will appreciate them more than I could ever hope to.  Paul Hornung is offered to Heartbreaking Cards of Staggering Genius, and Tony Dorsett is now officially offered to BigD of Hey That’s Mine.  I’m giving both Big Bens to a Steelers fan I know (other one coming up).  The Maynard/Biletnikoff is the only for sure keeper from this scan, although the Alan Page is tempting, to get a TTM auto maybe.  How epic would that look?

As it is, Alan Page, Plax, Calvin Johnson, Romo/Aikman, and the volleyball dude are available.

Beethoven, Florence Nightingale, and a couple Chicago legends...

Bobby Hull and Mike Ditka are the reason I got these cards in the first place, so they ain’t going anywhere.  I dunno about the historical peoples though.

Kristi Yamaguchi and some rock-headed Presidents...

I used to have a crush on Kristi in my teenage years.  Heh… :d

Do the Presidents look a lil’ toony to anyone else, or is it just me?

Yeah Woodstock! Woo!

Are there any bloggers out there who were at the original?

Malkin/Big Ben

This is also going to my Steeler fan friend.

Now we get to the higher end, a rare taste for me.  But a yummy taste it is.

Prime Jersey or Patch (whichever you prefer) #ed /50

This one I offered up for BigD’s Hines Ward collecting son.  I got a little something for the whole gang, if they want ‘em, that is.

And if they can wait till 2010 to pull off the trade.  I’m a slow trader (slow at doing nearly everything, really) to start with, but I think I’ve got trades going with half the card bloggers right now.  At least it seems that way, not to mention McCann’s great card blogger Secret Santa thing.  I’m very excited about dat though, and hopefully the person I drew will be too.

Prime Time Prime (Jumbo) Jersey #ed 3/5!

I’m not trading away this one, I really like this one.  It’s purrty.  I may have to sell it at some point sadly though.   I’m poor like dirt.  I have iffy mental health as an excuse, but I’ve got to try and make good, the sooner the better, and that’ll take some moneys to start with.

Incidentally, if you’d like to commission a sketch card, gimme a shout.  You can see a few recent examples on my blog.  I’m okay I guess, especially with portraityness.

Enough shameless and very awkwardly done self-promotion.  Last card!

More prime jersey patches, going way back with Frank Gifford #ed /25

That was a heckuva box Mario busted, all three game-used being of the prime jersey variety, if not the sickest of patches.  I like Absolute Memorabilia, one day I will be able to afford a box of it without breaking the bank, or even poking it softly.  I have no intention of being a poor bum my whole life.

That’s all for what I got from big man of the blogosphere.  Maybe I’ll win some stuff from him again (and sign up for Card Corner Club @VOTC) if I can figure out what the heck happened with my Ning password. :/

Oh yeah, congrats to Real Salt Lake on taking down the evil empire of David Beckham and Landon Donovan.  I hope it doesn’t effect the value of my Beckham jersey card though (scans to come when I get it scanned).

And big ups for Matthew Stafford showing some Leftwich-ian toughness in getting the win against the Browns in a surprising shootout.

Until our next…(Besos)

The France-Ireland playoff in Paris on Wednesday was memorable for both the right and the wrong reasons. You will know all about these already and there is a good chance that you  feel somewhat overexposed and perhaps even a little nauseous as a result of it all. I know that by Saturday morning I was completely over it; not the match outcome, but the moral indignation. As a nation, perhaps the only prize similar to a trip to the World Cup finals is a spot of moral outrage, of wallowing in the mire, of feeling (rightly) aggrieved. The only thing that could’ve made it better is if we had been wronged by England.

The way in which the chain of events unfolded was startling. On Wednesday night, I went to bed rather the worse for wear feeling that Ireland had – of course – been robbed of a place at the World Cup, but that as a minor football nation, nobody would really care much for the injustice which took place in Paris. The next morning (or rather afternoon – the previous night’s events inhibited the usual early start) the papers were full of it. Not only Irish newspapers, but British ones, French ones, and others across Europe. The story was becoming a real scandal. By the day’s end, it was the talk of American newspapers too, and the whole world seemed to feel that not only was Ireland wronged, but they perhaps even deserved a replay.

The online community mobilized. A Facebook group had, by the end of Thursday, taken in almost a hundred thousand members, and by the end of Friday, there were almost a quarter of a million onboard. These were not only Irish fans, but football fans from across Europe and the world. While the group began as a petition to FIFA calling on them to replay the game, the organizer had decided by Friday afternoon to hold a protest march. Hilariously, his initial proposal to march the traditional protest route in Dublin from Parnell Square to FAI Headquarters was scuppered when someone pointed out that the FAI was no longer located in Merrion Square, in the city centre, but in Abbottstown, a far flung suburb. Eventually it was decided to instead march from Lansdowne Road to the French Embassy.

By Friday afternoon, talk of a replay was everywhere. The FAI submitted a formal appeal to both FIFA and the French Football Federation, asking the latter to replay the game in the interests of sportsmanship and fair play. The Taoiseach, Brian Cowen, and minister Dermot Ahern both pronounced on the subject in Ireland’s favour. Nicolas Sarkozy and Prime Minister Francois Fillon responded for France.

Talk of a replay never sat well with me. On Thursday I was hungover and outraged. By Friday I was annoyed and still feeling a little tender. At no point did I want a replay. I wanted vindication in the vaguest sense possible. In the back of my mind was a nagging feeling that even if Ireland did secure a replay, they’d  go back to Paris and get stuffed three nil (see the below post on Irish optimism).

What made the entire media storm even more bizarre was that people from across the sporting world and beyond chimed in, taking one side or another. This meant that by Friday, Ireland could count on the support of two members of Arsenal’s famous back four, Nigel Winterburn and Lee Dixon, as well as that of the leader of the school teacher’s union in France, as well as their Minister of Economic Affairs, Christine Lagarde. And, oddly enough, Thierry Henry. The most notable name to oppose Irish designs for a replay was Henry’s Gillette buddy Roger Federer, and Roy Keane.*

* Roy Keane’s involvement in any debate tends to kill it stone dead. When Keane pronounces on an issue, it’s the equivalent of hearing a song by a semi-obscure band who you hitherto thought were yours and yours alone being used on a TV ad for chewing gum or breakfast cereal, or, even worse, being covered by Mundy.

The whole thing quickly took on the air of farce, and by Saturday morning, I felt myself a tad embarrassed by it all. It had run its course, we’d had a good old whinge, we’d gotten our Prime Time special, and now we should move on. Which it seems we are, helped along by the fact that a number of Irish towns are currently under water and people have real problems to deal with.

So, now that the saga appears to be over, how will we look back on this? I really have no idea and no answers. I’m all done with righteous indignation.

Toys are used in play by children, adults and pets. The difference a toy has from a game is that toy play does not have clearly defined goals; that is if you do not play with my brother. Today, huge toy chains, like “Toy-R-Us,” carry a vast assortment of different toys for any age and background, covering the needs of children and parents. But while parents spend a small fortune on acquiring the latest model of their son's favorite car toy, the young boy will continue to play with the old one and although he will at the beginning be extremely happy with his new possession, the old car that misses a wheel and a door will never leave its bed.

Visit To See What Is New Toys and Games.

The explanation for this type of behavior is rather simple. In fact, if you try to recall your favorite toy while you were a kid, you will probably remember that its prime time had long passed, but you continued holding it in your arms as you fell asleep. Some people state that their favorite ‘toy' was not even a regular purchased toy. Any item in the house that a kid for some reason will pick up, toss in the air or play around with can become a toy. As long as children's imagination is at work, even a rubber band or a pillow can become a toy with which a child will feel a close connection.

For those gamers who are used to Lara Croft, the next-generation consoles revolutionized the way she handled. Gone were the grids, the running jumps, the aggravating camera controls. The vast improvement of the graphic, sound, and gameplay on the next-gen consoles have not gone unnoticed by fans who abandoned the game after the series' disappointing Angle of Darkness installment. But with Tomb Raider: Legend they found that Crystal Dynamics had picked up the ball where it had been dropped and run for the endzone.

Ten years after pointy-chested, polygonal Lara Croft ran, rolled, dove, and shot her way onto the video gaming stage, a new game based on Lara's exploit's in the very first Tomb Raider has been released. It was released for the PlayStation2 and the Xbox 360 in the summer of 2007, but owners of the Nintendo Wii had to wait until this week to get their hands on the diva of the video-gaming world.

While Tomb Raider Anniversary is dubbed as a remake, Crystal Dynamics has kept the environment and challenges fresh enough to warrant the game its own status. The environment and stories are generally the same as the first game, but if you're expecting a 1-to-1 update of the first Tomb Raider, you're going to be disappointed. In Tomb Raider Anniversary, Lara jumps, dives, and shoots her way through Peru, Greece, Egypt, and the lost island of Atlantis in pursuit of the three pieces of the mysterious Scion.

Some areas of the game have been expanded, and some have been tightened up, but the balance that players will probably look for is there. All the rooms, traps, and enemies you remember are there, but there's plenty of new challenges. Fans of the franchise will recognize the painstaking effort that Crystal Dynamic took to ensure that the best-loved areas from the first game were preserved faithfully. The best example of this is St. Francis Folly. The “column o' death” which Lara has to descend, gathering keys on the way down, is as close to identical to the original as players could want. The spirit (“Oh dear, I'm hundreds of feet up, hanging from a ledge and I've no idea what to do now”) is there in spades.

Other areas have been changed slightly. The “fire room” from Tomb Raider's Palace Midas has been altered slightly, giving Lara more of a challenge than just timing her jumps right. Faithful fans take heart: there's a good chance you'll have a Lara flambé at least once before you get through it.

The real story with Lara's journey to Wii is the new way you handle her. With the other next-generation systems, you still control Lara with the joysticks and cause her to interact with buttons on the controller. With the Wii, things are a little different. Players control Lara with the joystick and interact with the environment with the D-pad, but the Wii version has a whole new element: puzzles up close and personal.

Lara now has to manipulate puzzles with her hands, excavate items, and place items with precision. For instance, when placing the cogs in the machinery in the Lost Valley map, on the PS2 or Xbox 360, players simply choose it from the inventory and it will be placed automatically. On the Wii, you'll have the option of where to place which cog, causing a good deal of trial and error as the game progresses. This makes sense: Lara has never been to these environments before–how should she know what goes where?

In addition to placing objects, Lara now has to deal with complicated switches. On the PS2, you grab a switch and pull it down by pushing a single button. On the Wii, Lara may be required to work out a puzzle on the switch before she can pull it–using the new “Lara's Hands” feature. Players will use the varied Wii remotes to utilize all of Lara's features from her flashlight to her grappling hook. Players beware–the precision required by these actions may frustrate you if you haven't been playing on the Wii for long.

Further, Lara may be required to dig up objects, and on the Wii Lara comes equipped with a varied tool kit that players will have to use to excavate the item, whether it be a key or cog. Of course, shooting is also controlled by movement with the Wii remotes, giving you the feeling of being there.

With excellent graphics, beautiful sound and chilling music, and utilization of the Wii's controller style, Tomb Raider Anniversary puts you in Lara's trusty boots, short shorts, and sleeveles shirt. The new features that come with using the Wii's motion-based controllers add a whole new level of depth to the Tomb Raider franchise that fans and newcomers alike should enjoy.

Toys are used in play by children, adults and pets. The difference a toy has from a game is that toy play does not have clearly defined goals; that is if you do not play with my brother. Today, huge toy chains, like “Toy-R-Us,” carry a vast assortment of different toys for any age and background, covering the needs of children and parents. But while parents spend a small fortune on acquiring the latest model of their son's favorite car toy, the young boy will continue to play with the old one and although he will at the beginning be extremely happy with his new possession, the old car that misses a wheel and a door will never leave its bed.

Toys are not only for kids. Adults need the relaxation and the memories beloved toys can bring back to their memories. I still have in my room the Rubik's Cube which I managed only once to solve and numerous times I thought of taking off its colored rectangular stickers and placing each color on every side. I never actually did it because I was afraid of the consequences if I destroyed my fathers favorite toy. When I understood that solving the cube requires some planning and problem-solving skills, I was determined to succeed and I still remember the joyful screaming when I managed to “solve” its mystery; probably by accident. Since then, I have been catching myself thinking of my favorite old toys, like Lego and Playmobil, not very girly I know, and recapturing the times I was playing in our then common room with my brother.

Muchas veces nos preguntamos qué tipo de películas se emiten en Estados Unidos, ya que las que vemos aquí están muchas descatalogadas, se emiten tras muchos años, o simplemente no son estrenos, por el hecho de haber sido emitidas mucho tiempo después de su pase por la gran pantalla.

Para introducir el tema, debemos de aclarar a los seguidores del blog, por si no lo sabán, que las grandes cadenas generalistas no suelen emitir cine en la franja de prime time en USA, debido a que no le son rentables. Sólo durante días donde el consumo televisivo es menor o apenas existe en las generales de allí. Aún así, las películas que emiten no suelen ser de estreno, son repeticiones de años anteriores, ya que como norma habitual prefieren reponer capítulos de series para recuperar seguidores, o para “enganchar” a otros nuevos.

Aún así, vamos a ver algunos ejemplos de lo que van a dar esta semana en la parrilla de televisión americana, para así hacernos una idea aproximada. En primer lugar, el canal Cartoon Network emite a las 7 p.m. la película “Flubber”, producida en el año 1997. La cadena Flix, hoy lunes también nos enseñará las aventuras de Tom Cruise en “Misión Imposible II” del año 2000. El miércoles 18 de noviembre se presenta como un día interesante, ya que la cadena AMC dará paso a eso de las 8pm la película “Terminator 3″, del 2003, y el jueves, la misma cadena, tendrá en sus pantallas “La Milla Verde”, que aunque personalmente recomiendo, es del año 1999. Aunque el cine notorio no acaba ahí. La cadena ENC televisará “Armageddon” (1996), a la misma hora el jueves.

Aunque no todo es tan antiguo; Las cadenas de cable apuestan por cine más comercial y HBO el martes nos deleitará con “Jumper”, el film de ciencia ficción taquillero del año 2008, a eso de las 9,30 p.m. El domingo 22 de este mes, la cadena SOAP transmitirá “Apocalypto”, del 2006.

El hecho de que Hollywood mueva miles de millones al año no significa que las cadenas de televisión tengan que emitir sus peliculas en abierto todo el tiempo. La noticia es que en España a diferencia de copiar el modelo americano, se busca la financiación de cine de autor, que aunque de una mayor calidad argumental, carece de historias con fuerza que atraigan al público en masa. No es un debate que tenga solución en unas líneas, pero sí un espejo donde poder analizarse a sí mismos, y saber si vamos en el camino correcto o no.

Ahora más que nunca vamos a saber si el público español tiene interés o no en el cine patrio, ya que según declaraciones del director de RTVE, La2 se convertirá a partir del 2010 en un canal temático de cine (sin especificar todavía). La solución…¿es invertir o usar el marketing?

Simon Cowell brings in $25 million a year, making him the top male earner in prime time!! I guess that means we have a few more season of Idol, doesn’t it?

Jay slips even more

‘The Jay Leno Show” has struggled mightily — but Mondays have been extra-tough.

“Leno” averaged just over 4 million viewers at 10 p.m. Monday — nearly equaling its all-time low of 3.9 million viewers set on Monday, Nov. 2.

This past Monday, “Leno” was up against original episodes of CBS’ “CSI: Miami” and ABC’s “Castle,” which averaged 14 million and 11 million viewers, respectively.

New York Post-Jay slips even more

Gees, all that promotions not helping. Jay Leno is a late night person, not prime time person. Also, talk shows like that work better at night.

I know Monday mornings can be horrid, however look at the bright side primetime tv starts up again, you know the shows you love so dearly continue where they left off from the previous week…

With that said tonight starting at 8pm House M.D followed by Lie to Me at 9pm. Both are new episodes continuing from where they left off excluding the last two weeks in which they were old episodes ….

I’ve just been into PrimeTime. It is absolutely mobbed with people grabbing all of their DVDs. It’s not even that much of a bargain- each disc has a coloured sticker that determines its fate. I asked when it was due to close -”when it’s all gone”. I also asked what was going to replace it – “well, I don’t think it will be a DVD shop”. My shopping bag was full of all the films I’d intended to watch everytime I’d wandered in there. It’s a real shame. I guess the onward march of Internet rentals will offer more choice eventually, but it’s not the same. It was a great place. Maybe the Travel Lounge will become the Film Lounge? I doubt it somehow.

There has been a loud buzz on the internet regarding whether network television can make Fedor Emelianenko a household name. Fedor does not have the build to appear on fitness magazines, and he might have all of the personality in the world, but American fans would not know it because Fedor does not speak English. There is a distinct difference between fighters who appeal to casual fight fans and those who only appeal to hardcore fight fans. American fight fans follow fighters they can relate to in some way. American fight fans related to Chuck Liddell as a guy who they would love to have a beer with. They relate to Randy Couture as a personal hero – a man who cannot be kept down.

Fedor is an enigma to American fight fans, and CBS does not seem to have done much to introduce Fedor to the American public. Tomorrow night, Fight Camp 360: Fedor vs. Rogers will debut on Showtime. Who watches Showtime? CBS must make a harder push to introduce Fedor to American fight fans as someone who they can relate to. Fedor Emelianenko, the man, must be introduced to American fight fans in order for him to go mainstream. Fedor, the Russian cyborg who decimates his opponents, will only appeal to hardcore fight fans.

But then things aren’t like they used to be…

Book ‘em Danno !
