Estate of Panic

It's basically a horror-themed show, where people compete for money. They have to get past various sets designed like they should be in Saw. :o
There are snakes (anacondas and boas), spiders (tarantulas), and worms. What really makes me want to hit my head against the wall is people screaming about the snakes. :roll:
THEY ARE FREAKIN' HARMLESS. :roll:

My other personal opinion is that it's Narm (supposed to be serious but comes across as funny), so I sit there laughing how stupid these people are. :lol: :lol: :lol:

Anyway, I have only one suggestion for the writers:

:shift: hwlwnk

Now that would be funny to watch. Everyone screaming over the fact that they set someone in a werewolf costume loose. :evil: :lol:


So, what does everyone else think?

Sadly, I don't think there's a lot of interest. Oh, and I don't watch a whole lot of TV, for the record. Cable men keep coming and try to rescue my damsels in distress instead of installing cable TV. They'd be in a lot less distress if they had TV to watch. But no. The cable guys keep trying to be the hero to get the babe, and so I have to eat them. *sigh*

I don't think you're missing out on anything, Baph. The only things I really watch TV for these days are Doctor Who and the I.T. Crowd, but those I catch up with on BBC iPlayer and 4OnDemand rather than watching them on real TV.

Okami: I can understand your frustration with shows like that. Whenever I visit family, they like watching that kind of thing. "I'm a celebrity, get me out o here!" comes to mind. And the whole thing is so obviously acted out that it's painful to watch ... so I feel your pain.

The guy that hosts Yahoo's Prime Time In No Time panned it pretty bad the last episode I saw, so no, I don't think you're missing much at all. My understanding is that it's basically Fear Factor restricted to the classic horror theme, and instead of performing stunts for cash, the contestants just run around the house scavenging for it or some crap like that.

Well, I guess you're right. It sucks. I just laugh at it, because it is so stupid.
And, as a side note, I'd rather watch Monk or read Detective Conan. But maybe it has something to do with my whole preference for detective stuff. :read2: :lovebone:
Better yet, Freeborn, when it goes into production and comes out. :duckieinmouth:
