You know how you always hurt the ones you love, well it goes both ways. – Fight Club

Lost
What the Hell? Everyone knows I love Lost, but I am damned tired of seeing Locke’s back-story. I’m tired of the back-stories in general, but Locke’s really ticks me off because they never explain how he ended up in the wheelchair. I already know that he had a screwed up relationship with his father and I know Helen left him. I know he tends to trust people he shouldn’t. Put your sledgehammer away. This back-story was a total waste of time and if they tell one more Locke story without telling me how he ended up in the wheelchair, I may have to quit watching.

South Park
Hey Parker and Stone, what the Hell? I love your show too, but you guys are the last people in the world to complain about people being smug. Not only was this episode way too smug about other people being smug, it also didn’t have a single laugh out loud moment. Even last week’s attack on Isaac Hayes made me laugh a couple of times, but this one just wasn’t funny. How about doing an episode that isn’t about some social problem? How about you just relax with the social problems until you find your funny again?

Smallville
What the Hell? I thought Lana and Clark broke up already! Did you put them back together just so you could have Clark totally rip Lana’s heart out? The episode itself would have been fine . . . if I you hadn’t already had them break up! Start paying attention to your own episodes please.

Free Ride
What the Hell? Are you guys airing your shows out of order or what? Last week’s episode was about Nate getting a job . . . a job I don’t remember him losing. This week’s episode is about Nate . . . getting a job! What the hell? I want to like your show but you need to run them in order and you need to find more for him to do then get bad jobs. Also, the blonde girl he went out with last week was WAY cooler than the one you have him crushing on. Get her back on the show ASAP.

Teachers
What the Hell? Shakespeare? Hamlet? Every damned time a teacher connects with a student does it have to be Shakespeare? How about a little Milton? How about some Faulkner? I’d settle for some William Carlos Williams. I vote that shows and movies about high school be outlawed from mentioning Shakespeare, 1984, The Catcher in the Rye or On the Road ever again. Come up with some new material. The Bard is played.

The Crocodile Hunter
What the Hell? How is this Steve Irwin still alive? I think it is time to start a Steve Irwin death pool. Name the year, month and the creature that kills this guy. Winner gets a free stuffed animal in the likeness of whatever causes his death.
