They have 3d glasses. OMG, this is like every 80s night at the Depot in G'boro!
Well, it's just good to know that when the chips are down and things look grim you'll feed off the girl who loves you to save your own ass!

Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.

Every now and then, I think I might actually be a little odd.
Jeepers, this retrospective of British popular music is going on a really long time. Sure, there was a lot of it, but do they have to play every single hit single in the last forty years? Damn, I bet the Queen wishes she were home in bed right about now.

I hate commentators. Always have, every Olympics.

All sorrows can be borne if you put them into a story. Tell me a story.
Who are the commentators?
I wanted to see the Queen's reaction during the house party at the end. The punk bit was kind of awesome.

Thrive to spite them
One Olympics the commentator for the gymantstics (possibly John Tesh, I'm not sure) kept using "histrionic" instead of "historic."
I only remember this because it sent Dad in near hysterics every time it happened.
I wish they would feel like it was okay to shut up during things.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.
Matt Lauer and Meredith Viera, on my TV.

It is confusing, mixing of the stuff that clearly had to have been filmed earlier and integrated, and the live stuff. It kinda diminishes the live stuff. I prefer an all live show. And of course, Beijing was just NUTS due to sheer size.

Same as Jesse. Remember that one year (and now I can't even remember if it way gymnastics or ice skating or Costas or the ice skater dude whose name I am also blanking-Scott?) who when watching a killer flub "And that was just...BAD." Yeah, thanks dude.

Obviously too young for Jim McKay.

I'm 37. But I wouldn't know a name unless I hated them, mostly.
