Burn Notice: We’ll write the scripts, thanks - Miami-Dade - MiamiHerald.com

Burn Notice: We’ll write the scripts, thanks - Miami-Dade - MiamiHerald.com

Ok you know I had to attach that link since it is my latest rant and the scrupulous Marc Sarnoff. If you read the article the good news is that Burn Notice will be sticking around the Grove for another year if the show gets picked up. The bad news is that they will not ask for another year so basically this is it. Now what I especially love is how the article starts with a note to Commissioners from the Producers "You pass the budget, set the tax rate and pick up the trash, and we’ll write the scripts for our show. Thank you." Fabulous.

The reference is because the pompous Sarnoff wanted the destruction of the building written into the season finale so yes now he not only puts himself as Speaker of Coconut Grove residents but now TV Producer and writer. As a matter of fact here is quote this super-genius guy said "I guess it's poetic license to decide what to do with the script." Ah yeah dude you think? Yeah he is special isn't he? So while I am glad that they are staying another year I find it more like in your face in knowing that a recent film shoot was at Blanche Park which is located across from Sarnoff's house. Hum maybe they should of blown up his house. Hey I'm just sayin...I am sure he would not mind... Has anyone thought to ask him that question?

Request and Note to Burn Notice Producers:    Ask Marc Sarnoff if it is ok to blow up his house. I am certain he would not mind. Just sayin..

Big Brother updates and stuff


Ok lets get right to it shall we?

Big Brother

Danielle is the new HOH and she nominated Wil (whom she promised he was safe) and Frank (whom she cannot stand but I think she likes him I think she really likes him). Then came the POV and sorry boys Danielle won that too. Now you would think ok she is going to leave things as they are but no the little girl decided she wanted to play Big Brother and she took Wil down and put Janelle in his place!

So what do I think of Danielle? Ok undecided is what I think. I think she is pretty easily manipulated by Dan the former coach whom she tends to think he is still her coach. Speaking of married former coach Dan I think he has a ying yang for Danielle because I noticed when she won HOH that boy ran to her and jumped on her while she was laying on the ground. Ah hello Dan what do you think your wife will say about that? Then afterwards Danielle's showmance Shane came over and gee Dan got "off" Danielle and allowed Shane to lay on her and kiss her. Wasn't that nice of him to allow that? Yeah Dan is a horn dog. I did not buy at first how some were saying oh he picked the hot girls on his team I figured he did it because he figured he can manipulate women better then men but in seeing how he jumped on Danielle - not so sure anymore.

So with Janelle on the chopping block it does appear she will be the one going home. Sorry Janie life is a bitch and then you go home.

Other shows and short and sweet round up and view

Political Animals - Still love the show but some of the inner storylines I wish they would make smarter. For example the TJ storyline is great I love how we do not know if TJ is dead or alive. I love Elaine running for President and as she said "this time I am going to win." And her ex-husband's (Bud) line if I claim to no longer be a womanizer then I need to stop being a womanizer. Trippin line! But the whole reporter and "I own you storyline" well it is poorly done - in my opinion.

Dallas - Love it! I just adore JR and Larry Hagman as an actor is just outstanding. We have seen JR go from so ill to on top and then we feel how much he truly loves his brother Bobby - simply outstanding. But did Rebecca get shot?

Coconut Grove and Burn Notice

Coconut Grove Grapevine

Todays rant is short and sweet let me start with Big Brother.

Did not like the fact that Coaches are no longer coaches, all the unofficial polls was not in favor of the coaches becoming coaches and I am not saying CBS did not rally the numbers right but I just did not see it was coming but in many cases they were close. So now Danielle is the new HOH which means Shane is safe and chances are so is Dan. Oh well the one good thing is that there was no eviction and Frank lives for another round!

Now Burn Notice and Coconut Grove - Gosh where do I begin ok I will keep it short. Basically this smug commissioner of CG wants Burn Notice out of the city. They have been for about 6 years leasing what use to be the Expo Center. When BN first moved in the building was falling apart BN fixed it up and made it a place where they can work and nice sight for residents and tourists. So now this smug guy well he no longer wants BN there I mean so what they are paying a yearly lease and filming in the area. I mean filming in the area means they hire locals oh no why would anyone want to continue that? Oh yes I know Commissioner Marc Sarnoff  wants to destroy the Expo Center Bldg and wait for it.... Build a park! Yes I know a park in Coconut Grove that is exactly what the Grove needs another park. Rumor has it that the park is going to be a Private Park for some luxury condo across the street.

I keep asking myself why is this guy doing this and what is in it for him? No answer on that but one can rest assure there is some money involved this man is not doing this out of the goodness of his heart because most Grove residents do not want Burn Notice leaving. Residents like seeing the show and seeing their community featured.

So now Marc Sarnoff has offered a new deal yes I know he is just full of generosity. His deal is ok Burn Notice if you are picked up for another season I will allow you to stay in the area on one condition "you blow up the Expo Center." Brilliant! Super Brilliant. I am sure he is sitting back sipping his Mojito and smoking his cigar saying "Awesome I am going to get Burn Notice to pay for that demolition the residents will love me and that building goes down so next year I can build my fancy private park."

So Marc thanks guy I hope we can return the favor one day.

Stay Tuned.

Big Brother oh boy what a summer so far

Happy Thursday you all and it is a Happy Thursday!

Ok let me get right to it.

Tonight is live eviction night on Big Brother and we learn what the viewers voted will the coaches become players or will they continue to be coaches.

The two up have been campaigning hard and it is going to be go down to the wire I think. I hope loud mouth Joe is gone gone gone! I just do not understand why he needs to sit in that Diary Room and yell like hello what is your point? Do you think you are making a good impression by yelling? He already has a little hot temper, the other house guests see it. To me it is easy- get rid of the loud mouth chef.

So who will leave and will the coaches become players?

Big Brother and more

Ok lets get right into it.

Big Brother

When last we left we were waiting to see if Shane was going to give in to pressure and use the POV. Well, he caved in pressure and took Mobile Tan Expert Ashley down from the block and put Frank up. What can I say I would have liked for it to stay the same but the guy is trying to secure himself votes but I think what he is doing is making himself a bigger target. So Boogie and Frank are going to need to work hard and fast if they plan on keeping Frank in the house because right now it does not look good for him.

Dancing With The Stars - All Stars

Ok DWTS is back and it is an all star review show meaning these celebrities have already danced and are returning. Some have even won. So here are the players (minus the Dance Instructors):

Pamela Anderson - Oh boy hopefully she can keep the girls in tact.
Bristol Palin- Really? Doesn't she have something better to do like oh I don't know GET A JOB
Melissa Rycroft - No comment she is ok
Shawn Johnson - Alright can stay too
Kirstie Alley - Oh boy here we go again. She will promote her organic company again and claim she lost the weight due to the pills not the 6 hours a day of dancing. Nah dancing had nothing to do with it.
Joey Fatone - Like him he seems like a nice guy and funny too
Kelly Monaco - Hello yeah welcome back Kelly ride it to the top but this time it will not be easy but I am sure you can do it.
Drew Lachey - one to watch he has continued dancing even after his season
Emmitt Smith - alright
Apolon Anton Ohno - Another one to watch
Giles Marini - Glad to see he is no longer doing that shirtless butter commerical or was it Orange Juice?
Helio Castroneves - He looked pretty good in his season so yeah one to watch for.

Now there is a fan vote going on and depending on who gets the most votes one of these 3 will be in the cast:

Sabrina Bryan
Carson Kressley
Kyle Massey

In my opinion it should be Mario Lopez. Yeah he was not an option not sure why maybe he was too busy working he does have a job.

Ok so lets wait the season out and keep on watching

Ah Monday Big Brother and Marlins

Ah Monday morning time to start the madness of the week but first lets recap the weekend and of course Big Brother.

Weekend was pretty darn cool. We went to see http://www.marlins.com/ play ball in the new resident paid for fancy ballpark for now known as Marlins Park. The Marlins played against the San Diego Padres and while it went into the 10th inning I am happy to say we won! Go Marlins! The stadium was nice looking a far distance and change from its previous location. One thing for sure is it appears not only are tax payers paying for this stadium but so are people who attend and wish to purchase food and beverage. Seriously $14 for Turkey burger with only lettuce and tomatoe on it and no side? Let's not talk about beverage prices $12 for single shot of any well drink and gosh if you want a beer that will set you back $9 come on really? This is why people want to sneak in food and beverage!

Ok Big Brother time - Spoiler Alert I'm just sayin...

Shane has won yet again another competition and he is now the Head of Household and as the HOH he has to nominate 2 people for eviction. He originally wanted Wil up there but in the coaches challenge Janelle won and saved Wil from being nominated so as a result Joe and Ashley were nominated. Ashley is this year's version of Dumb Blonde. I hate to use terms like that but this girl is well not quite with the program but hey I have to give her credit for having her own business (Mobile Spray Tan). Joe is the self proclaimed Chef who just has a real attitude problem. So now the Power of Veto was played and the winner of the POV has the choice to either Veto what the HOH has made and basically save one of the nominees or leave things as they are. So the POV was played and Shane won the POV! SO what will Shane do? That is up in the air Shane is being pressured alot to put an equally strong player named Frank up but Shane has a secret deal with Shane not to put him up, however, a lot of the people in the house are giving him pressure so I think he may actually turn on Frank.

Now CBS is doing something in my opinion that is not right and that is allow the audience/viewers to vote if the coaches should be allowed to play as players and not just be coaches. Honestly I think they should stay coaches they have been coaching for a few weeks now and it really is not fair to toss them in there now as players. So I am voted no and I am hoping it stays no.

Now the cast of Dancing With the Stars has been released and its an All Star cast meaning it is previous dancers including some winners. I will post their names later on when it is a complete list ABC is doing a vote one person to dance you choose America type of thing and no I am not voting because the choices are eh however I will say this Kelly Monaco is dancing and well she won in her season and she does play Sam on General Hospital and we must shine on daytime soaps since the dumas Brian Frons (Former ABC President) decided he wanted to replaced 2 long time soaps with a cooking show and a make over show that was hosted by a carpenter. I suppose that is why that show got cancelled! Good. Ok I will not get started on that song again...But I hold the right to change my mind later.

Lets just see what the week brings

Ah Big Brother is back which means summer is here

Yes summer is here if the heat doesn't remind you the fact that Big Brother is playing does it. Well last night was the eviction of JoJo and I am personally happy that Staten Island Beauty Queen is out of there. The power was up for grabs and Shane is now the new Head of Household - good for him. The only thing I have against that is that well Brittany is on pompous cloud nine again. Oh well that just means the falls will sting more when it happens and it will eventually happen. CBS is asking viewers should the coaches stop coaching and become regular players or the game - I voted for NO. I would like to give the new players a chance to play the game and let the coaches well coach. Ok some are coaching others are being idiots.

So I realized that in my last post I mentioned Danny being so cute but I never posted a picture of him so let me take care of that right now. If you see the picture behind him on the wall that is a picture of my brother when he was I want to say maybe 1 year old or so the resemblence is amazing but that's the SOP for his kids they all look like him.

Ok have a great weekend folks
