Have any of you ever been involved in some sort of Nielsen Media Research? This is the company that decides what shows get made, and as far as I know they're in charge of figuring out ratings once a show has been put on the air.
I've been involved in some form of their data collection twice. The first experience I had was with Ross, Maggie, and emily while we were in Vegas. We saw a sign for "Free Starbucks to Watch TV!", which, of course, I immediately decided was a good idea.
Turns out I was wrong. The girls didn't fit the demographic they were looking for, so they we subjected to a rerun of "The Biggest Loser" while Ross and I were subjected to the pilot for "Blade: The Series."
I think the emily and Maggie got the better end of that deal.
Not only that, but the "Free Starbucks" was a coupon for $2 off any single purchase - which means that we might have been able to get a cup of water.
Well recently while I was at the mall getting my laptop taken care of, I was pulled aside and offered $20 to do the same thing. Apparently I rarely learn from my mistakes because I immediately accepted the offer, and bore witness to yet another pilot. The following comic is based on those events.

No joke. Jurassic Fight Club. To make a long story short, I gave it a thumbs down. If it manages to get on the air, remember today's post.
Did I mention that "Blade: The Series" was canceled?
My boy Mueller has a post with his opinions on the WNBA. You could go check it out.

I love the Tyler Durden Dinosaur. Nice work Wheezy.
Thanks for the support Mr. Mau. You're an inspiration to us all.
nice work for sure. i love tyler durden's jacket, and the spotlight over him. and you decided to go with the wnba draft as the worst possible thing to do, huh? haha.
i would've still like to see your laptop turn into a wereworlf, though...
Oh I'm sure it will. Stop giving away future story lines in my comments!
By the way, I like you're new icon Mr Nguyen.
Ha. The WNBA draft is a good drop. I'm fairly certain that would be worse than watching reruns of Designing Women...not that I've ever seen either.
Once again Youtube proves that no tv show is too obsolete to make the internets.
