The nick@nite Executives Read this Blog

And obviously, they want to mess with my head.

Today, I decided to watch George Lopez after not watching it for a while. And I saw a commercial for Married… With Children. It’s going to be on nick@nite, starting some time in July. I think the 11th? I’m confused because nick@nite is targeting soccer moms who don’t want inappropriate programs, (Other than That 70’s Show, of course), yet they’re going to put one of America’s trashiest TV families (After the Conners, of course) on. Don’t get me wrong, Married… With Children is actually an OLD show, so they get points for that. And I’ve seen some episodes on TV Land and Antenna TV, and it’s a pretty good show. But I’m not sure if nick@nite can handle showing more than three shows. Everybody Hates Chris and My Wife and Kids fight for any slot before 10 PM, while George Lopez, The Nanny, and That ‘70s Show fight for every slot before dawn. How will another show affect things?

I hope this means there could be marathons of Married… With Children and The Nanny. I could see it now: The Big Hair Marathon!

Good for you, TeenNick!

A while back, I was complaining about TeenNick’s programming. It was more or less a place for Dan Schneider to dump his old shows. And it was also just another place to watch That 70’s Show. However, things have now changed. Unfortunately, That 70’s Show has now migrated to nick@nite. 

And while they don’t have original programming other than Degrassi (And I use the word original loosely, since 1) It’s a reboot of the 80’s version, 2) This one’s been going on since the early 2000’s, and 3) It’s from Canada.), they will be having some other shows this Summer.

For starters, they’ve been showing Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Freaks and Geeks, and Undeclared. Okay, so none of them are new shows. And two of those three only have one season. But at least TeenNick is showing some different shows.

And they’re also having this special called TeenNick Rocks Out. I’ve only seen one promo for it, but I think it’s just a series of concerts of pop artists. And they’re having P!nk, Avril Lavigne, and Kelly Clarkson perform, which is good.

School’s Over!

I finished my finals yesterday, and today was my last day of school. We didn’t do anything today. Well, we just got our final exam grades and final grades. I did pretty good in my classes, other than APUSH. I’m so glad that I won’t have to deal with that class again. Too many freaking cheaters who think too highly of themselves.

My English teacher announced today that next year he’ll be getting a new job in another part of the state. I don’t think I’ve wrote about him that much (or at all), but I didn’t really like him. He never made an effort to hide his favoritism. Everyone was sad over that but I don’t see why. I mean, there wasn’t much of a chance that he’d be their teacher two years in a row, and he gave us his e-mail. Sure, they won’t be able to see him in person, but they’ll probably have a new favorite teacher. Finals have made me bitter, haven’t they? :P

I don’t know what I’m going to do during the summer. Probably begin driving, do my summer reading and watch TV shows. And blog/play Sims.

Still Here

I know I haven’t really posted at all lately. I don’t have any excuses. Having finals to study for and fighting off a cold don’t make me want to blog that much. :\ And whenever I get ideas for posts, I’m offline, but by the time I come back online, I forget those ideas. School ends next week, though.

In other news, though, the new stuff pack is actually the first TS3 stuff pack that looks interesting. The HELS stuff looked crappy, I don’t use cars enough for the Fast Lane items, and I heard Outdoor Life stuff had next to nothing. Stuff for the town is actually something that I’d get. I’m not saying that I would buy it; it’s just the first stuff pack which has an good concept.
