Fishing Bloopers With Bill Dance

T-Rav — Tue, 07 May 2013 00:37:38 +0000

If fishing were as easy as they make it look on TV… well no one actually watches fishing on TV because its boring. But if they were to air these bloopers of Bill Dance, I’m sure there could be a ratings surge. As anyone who deals with Radio or TV can tell you, its a [...]

Hacker Runs Zombie Emergency Alert On TV Station

T-Rav — Tue, 12 Feb 2013 04:10:40 +0000

Think of it as a homage to War Of The Worlds. The 1938 version, not the terrible Tom Cruise one where Dakota Fanning WOULD NOT stop screaming.

Back then a bunch of people got worked up in to a panic, over a radio show. In the days before you

Annoyingly Loud Commercials Are Banned Starting At Midnight

T-Rav — Thu, 13 Dec 2012 01:44:29 +0000

You know the scenario. You're laying on the couch, enjoying a late night episode of "Law & Order: SVU". The gang is off to investigate a perp, when suddenly your TV is screaming at you about magic towels or magic laundry detergent.

Couple Sues Over Trick Question On A Game Show

T-Rav — Thu, 27 Sep 2012 03:32:37 +0000

Sometimes I get heat for picking one Fourgasm answer over another because a word was left out or an answer was similar but not the exact one. However the prize for that is usually CDs, tickets, free food, etc… nothing like the $580,000 a couple lost due to the wording of a question. Andrew and [...]

Button Adds Extra Drama To Boring Belgian Town Square

T-Rav — Fri, 13 Apr 2012 01:08:20 +0000

If there is anything I try to do throughout the day, its avoid drama. Whether its letting my girlfriend get the last word or let some tailgating jack a** pass me on the Lloyd, I try my very hardest to avoid it. In Belgium, one TV station wanted to bring the drama to you at the press of a button.

Tonight Is Festivus

T-Rav — Sat, 24 Dec 2011 01:46:18 +0000

If you’re not a huge fan of the the pressure and commercialization of the holidays, then today is truly the the holiday for you. Or as Frank Costanza would say ‘A Festivus for the rest of us!’. December 23rd is recognized as Festivus by Frank, during an episode of Seinfeld. Since then the holiday has [...]

Cable TV Exposes The Worst Christmas Gift This Season

T-Rav — Thu, 22 Dec 2011 04:13:09 +0000

There are people who have to spend their entire day in a jumpsuit. They are usually janitors, cash counters at a casino, or prisoners. I don’t fall in to any of these categories. So no one better get me the ‘Forever Lazy’ for Christmas. The ‘Forever Lazy’ is probably the brain child of the person [...]

Almost everyone has had this situation happen to them. You start to doze off to sleep in front of the television, when Billy Mays screams you right out of that sleep while trying to sell you glorified ‘Color Safe Bleach’. With a recent FCC ruling that may become a thing of the past. The rule [...]

'It's the 90′s!' A Blast From The Past

Bobby G. — Fri, 30 Sep 2011 13:51:07 +0000

By now, my love of the 90′s should be no secret. I love the movies, I love the TV, I love the memories (the ones I can still remember) and I definitely love the music. And you can enjoy it too this morning with another rad edition of the 90′s at Nine! And you can [...]

Stuff I'm Gonna Be Watching

T-Rav — Wed, 07 Sep 2011 03:49:20 +0000

So as we go from 100 degree days, to arctic blast, Southern Indiana has signaled that summer is over. So pack away the foam cooler and the sandals. Its time to stay indoors and enjoy the offerings of the NFL and whatever new crap the TV networks want us to watch. However this fall, I'm looking forward to the return of a few shows.

What You're Missing On TV

T-Rav — Tue, 26 Jul 2011 03:14:05 +0000

So last night was the season premiere of My Strange Addiction on TLC. Last season brought us people who eat toilet paper, like to dress in animal costumes, and eat couch cushions. Based on last night’s episode, this season won’t disappoint. The season 2 opener featured many ‘unique’ addictions. I use the word ‘unique’ lightly, cause I want to [...]

Friday Fail: Part 11

T-Rav — Sat, 09 Jul 2011 01:29:08 +0000

From the network that brought you the horrendous Kate Plus 8 and Extreme Couponing, comes this week’s fail. TLC, which stands for The Learning Channel, is now ready to destroy the world of tattooing. Following in the footstep of NY: Ink, comes a bastardization of learning how to tat. On July 14 the network will [...]

Weird Al Has The Answers

T-Rav — Thu, 30 Jun 2011 01:26:04 +0000

Never before would I ever think to say this, but Weird Al is needed in Evansville. Now before you bring out the anti-accordion propaganda, hear me out. In the recent months, The Fox Network announced it was dropping its affiliation with local station WTVW. Another ‘brilliant’ decision made by Fox, which cancelled Arrested Development and Family [...]

Boy, We Had Fun Back Then

T-Rav — Thu, 05 May 2011 23:51:46 +0000

Check out this blast from the past. Its a Winston Cigarette commercial from the 50s. The first print cigarette ad appeared in 1798, according to this handy article I found on Wikipedia. The last ad to appear on TV happened back in 1972 (cigarettes were banned, but ads for smokeless tobacco would continue to air until the [...]

I'm Not Saying 'Wow' This Time, Vince

T-Rav — Thu, 07 Apr 2011 01:09:39 +0000

Well it seems that our favorite late-night TV pitchman is in trouble again. Just two years ago, Ol' Vince was busted after knocking around a prostitute in a hotel room. And now, his behavior has taken an even creepier turn.
