FX Makes A Bunch of Inconsequential Decisions

by

…And we’re back, we took yesterday off for personal reasons. I.E, we felt/feel like shit and any post we would have thrown up on the page might as well have been written in Swahili it would be so incoherent. We’re still a little under the weather so this will definitely be an abbreviated post, but it is better than nothing. Just a little FX binger, to brighten up your day.

It’s Always Sunny creators have asked Bon Jovi to provide a cameo in an upcoming episode in which they buy his arena football league team. This is a fucking excellent premise, and since we do not much care for Bon Jovi we’re kind of hoping he turns down the offer, giving the writers an open window to mock his absurd “music”. We look to Springsteen for our Jersey rock.

See, they’ve already mocked Bon Jovi. Kind of.

Tatum O’Neal, despite recent disprovable drug allegations, is welcome back on the Rescue Me set. Well, it’s a big day for Grid Effect’s favorites. Much like Bon Jovi, we could do without O’Neal on this series, but we wish Buttermaker’s step-daughter all the best.

At least one good thing came out of the writer’s strike: FX canceled Dirt. This is a dark day for people who watch shows solely because the lead actress was integral to one of their favorite shows of all time, so I won’t rejoice too much. We’ve made perfectly clear our feelings on Dirt.

FX: we can never tell where you stand amongst other cable networks, your series’ seem to fluctuate in quality more so than any other cable or broadcast network. Which, sadly enough, probably makes you the most watchable network, because at least it fluctuates.

About Grid Effect

Here at Grid Effect we discuss a morass of television series and recap a select few that are deemed worthy of such attention. We also provide a weekly links post that keeps you informed on all worthwhile topics in the television industry. In short, if you watch Desperate Housewives, American Idol, Grey's Anatomy or Two and A Half Men... this isn't the site for you (451 Press provides other such pages you can link to at the bottom). With a couple exceptions, we try to focus our efforts on the more cerebral qualities of your idiot box.
