Comments on: “Grimm” Is Intense, “Allen Gregory” A Dirty Mess http://stilltalkintv.com/2011/10/grimm-is-intense-allen-gregory-a-dirty-mess/ Alan Pergament Fri, 18 May 2012 15:52:46 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.3.2 By: Joe http://stilltalkintv.com/2011/10/grimm-is-intense-allen-gregory-a-dirty-mess/comment-page-1/#comment-84166 Joe Mon, 31 Oct 2011 21:46:10 +0000 http://stilltalkintv.com/?p=4163#comment-84166 Alan, Grimm was worth the video tape. Last Friday I watched game 7 of the World Series live. My DVR was used for Nikita and Supernatural on the CW. (Supernatural is still the best show on TV. Mainly due to the writing.) I had been interested in seeing Grimm since I watched a five minute preview for it. So I taped it on a set that I have upstairs. With rabbit ears and a VCR hooked to it. I watched Grimm Saturday morning and I really enjoyed it. It was not great, but something that has legs. I just hope NBC's brainstorm does not backfire on them. The show was going to begin on Oct. 21st. But NBC moved it back a week to the 28th. NBC claimed it was because they wanted it closer to Halloween, but we all know this is bull. They didn't want it to go up against game 3 of the World Series. So due to a rain out it went up against game 7 instead. (Great move NBC) While channel changing on Saturday night I noticed that it was being rerun. But most program guides said Prime Suspects. Why NBC keeps this dog of a show on the schedule I'll never know. I hope NBC gives the 1st episode of Grimm a few for plays on USA or Scifi channel. It is a show that should be given a chance. I will continue to watch Supernatural on Friday, but will tape Grimm. It is worth the server space or good old fashion video tape. Alan,

Certainly MLB doesn't want to loose the large California and other west cost market. MLB needs to shorten the game. While extra inning games are unavoidable they could be better tolerated if the game was shorter. Any Earlier and the west coast would be starting mid-afternoon.

Between the tenth and eleventh innings last night, I looked up and down my street, and most of the homes were dark. Now, I know this is anecdotal. But if I was still working full-time, I would have been sleeping by the time of the Cards' walk-off homerun in the bottom of the 11th. The game ended shortly before 1am. That's way too late. Given the unpredictability of baseball, maybe they should start the games at 7pm. Because of the length of World Series games especially (with all the pitching changes and managerial strategies), it's likely the games would still extend well into the 10:00 hour, if not 11:00. Last night was a Game Six for the ages. But I wonder how many people were able to stay up and see the dramatic conclusion!
