WTF: The Third Installement Of The Thread About Nothing

It is a purge. I've lost track of how many I've sold so far. But it's more than 10. I'm getting rid of the guitars that I don't play. My collection will be much smaller when I'm done. So far I haven't missed anything that I sold.
 
Hi kids. I have been busy looking for a 4x4 for when we move to the country house. After about 3 weeks of looking at what is out there, I think I am going to get one of these. Possibly this week.

thanks. I never sat in a Jeep until Friday when I drove a new Patriot. Not built for speed, but to get thru snow, and crawl up rocks.
 
Nice Woody. I have had three Jeeps over the years. I'm a big fan of Jeep. Everything they make is really good.
 
Saturn - I guess that saves me sending you an email. I thought you might be interested. I just got a loan on the Altima about 4 months ago, but the dealer already said they would give in trade at least what my loan payoff was. I want a Patriot 4x4 in the middle trim level. I told my sales guy I wanted dark red, silver, or gray for ext. color. They all seem to have this nice black/gray interior.
 
Everybody stop saying nice Woody. It's not a Woody. Kind of similar shape but, not a Woody.

Nice Patriot Woody.

It was pretty good. :thu:

It sucks that their idea of a "season" is 10 episodes followed by 10 months of nada...

That pisses me off to. They really need a longer season or a shorter time between them. Falling Skies is one of the best shows on TV right now IMO.
 
the long in between times is how I lost interest in Mad Men. And it was the producers fault, as he held out for more money for him and the cast /crew. I do hate the long off seasons for shows though.
 
In the case of Falling Skies, I can understand it being a very time consuming and labor intensive process to put together 10-12 shows due to the heavy use of CGI and the big budget production style. Maybe the quality of the show would suffer if they tried to pump out too many episodes per year. Maybe.

But, it seems like a trend over the past few years, for shows to have either fewer episodes per season, or to have multiple shorter seasons throughout the year with weird or extended breaks in between. It's really hard to grab, and keep an audience when you offer up a 6 or 8 show "season", and then have that show vanish for 6 months.

There's also some standard network series' that reduce their season from 24 episodes down to 18 or so, and yoyo the viewer over 30 weeks with a new episode followed by a rerun or two... or three from earlier in the same season, before airing another new episode. That, or it just goes off air for 3 weeks to month several times during the year. I hate that.

They wonder why so many of these shows start out strong in the ratings and then fade off into cancelation territory, while making it nigh impossible to keep the viewer engaged and interested enough to keep watching after the weird hiatuses.
