I had set my DVR to record Persons Unkown last night but it recorded an episode of Law & Order instead.

After watching twice I figured out how the alternate Olivia got to the "other size"

When Olivia tosses the phosphor grenade she and William Bell are knocked unconcious although you don't see her fall...it's the alternate Olivia who wakes William Bell up and joins Peter and Walter and escapes back to our universe.

"Our" Olivia is captured by Walternate on the other side.

I'm enjoying "Last Comic Standing." There's very little else to watch this time of year.

Me too. The ones left are all good. The hispanic guy makes me laugh the most.

[Coop]

did I say other size?

meant other side..

[Coop]

gotta think season 3 will have a plotline centric to the two Olivia's...what if Peter falls for the alternate Olivia? Will she meet her sister and niece?

Interesting!!

[Coop]

do you follow fringe DD08?

I just watched both seasons while deployed, I really like the show!

Spoiler:

I was just the opposite. I liked him the least out of the five who were left. So of course he won. Blech. I thought Myq and Tommy were the best. And the New Yorker guy was inconsistently pretty good also.

End of spoiler.

I suppose the new format this year was better. The challenges these people used to have to endure and then the whole "I know I'm funnier than..." eliminations seemed a bit unfair. I'm not sure an American popularity contest is any more fair, but at least they could just focus on being comedians and not all the other crap. Loved Craig Robinson as host.

Tis a good show

Next Saturday is the finale of Persons Unknown. I think it's pretty lame but I am curious to see what it's all about.

[Tom]

Has anyone else been watching Persons Unknown? Is it me or did they skip some episodes?

I thought the new format was better too. When it came down to the final two, I would rather have seen Tommy win. He seemed to improve each week.

Last weekend Myq was a Goodnight's Comedy Club in Raleigh. On the Friday morning before whoever is booked at Goodnight's goes on, they visit on air with the morning radio show Bob and the Showgram on G105. I was looking forward to Myq being on but he ended up being not very funny. He had funny moments but he came off as kind of mean.

[-Deborah-]

Ewww, that's surprising. Actually, I would have picked Tommy as one who would come off mean.

Apparently they left the ending of Person Unknown open-ended. Overall, I think it stunk. They didn't really explain anything.
