I don't quite know how this was possible, but somehow the 14th episode of the Simpsons (now in it's 20th season) got leaked. The show set to air in 5 days titled In the Name of the Grandfather - the episode features the Simpsons clan going to Ireland, after Grandpa Abe Simpson wishes to make up for lost time by going back to an Irish pub he had frequented (does that make the Simpsons Irish?).

Lost returns on it's 5th season today, the significance being that the ultra popular drama is on its second last season since the show is set to end with 6 seasons in total. Lost had begun with the intention of being a mini-series, intended to only span a few episodes and to have the now main character Jack die in the first episode after having lead the survivors to safety.Due the the popularity,

The first episode of Season 3 of Dexter has somehow got leaked out early with the premier episode set to play some odd 2 weeks from now. The show which has admittedly gone a little sour since mid-season 2, has used the general premise of the namesake book "Darkly Dreaming Dexter", to fuel the first two seasons worth of plot. Everything from the icetruck killer, down to the origins of his past

I'm a huge huge fan of Futurama, so it strikes me as no surprise that the straight-to-DVD movies have quite a bit of hype involved in them. But recently the latest movie, Futurama: The Beast with a Billion Backs, which is set to be released June 24th in continental USA, has been leaked out in private circles. The film was leaked out sometime in the early portion of June. I already pre-ordered

Leaked Plot:The episode begins with a flashback to the 1950s, where John Locke's birth mother is revealed to have been a teenager who was dating a man twice her age, much to the anger of her mother. On a rainy night, Emily runs out screaming at her mother and gets hit by as passing car. She is taken to the hospital, where she mentions that she is pregnant, causing the hospital to go in to a

Long ago television news was a heavily weighted and respected instrument of gaining factual information about local events, and national news. Journalists and reporters were so revered that they became the face or instrument if you will, to which the world was delicately and carefully delivered to millions of news-hungry citizens. News reporters, became the window the world for many individuals,

There's a lot of things that have changed since my last post, like broadcasters realizing that they really can monetize on piracy. So now major broadcasters are pouring oodles of money into on-line sale systems, while others are sub-licensing sites to put up full episodes of your favourite shows inter spliced with ads so that they can take home increased profits from the increasing demand for

There's a lot to be said for the quality and economics of cartoon animation in that a normal cartoon playing on Disney or the Cartoon Network is generally sent over-seas, where once it was created in-house. Animated shows like South Park are created within a week before it airs (that includes both creation of the plot, storyboard, voice acting and animation, and subsequent distribution). In the

I haven't posted in a while, but when I came across this I knew I had to post something. Today I came across possibly the most racist cartoon to ever be created. Sure we like to think that these cartoons are naive, but really this just disgusting. For starters, the 'pygmies' are overly-racialized with stereotypical 'big lips, overly dark complexion, barbarian/hedon-esque qualities'. And to top

Without a doubt, the most popular television shows seem to use some very obvious plot and medium devices to encourage the viewers to continue watching. Shows like NBC's stellar hit Heroes and Fox's Prison Break use these in moderation, while ABC's breakout hit Lost (now approaching it's 4th season) makes heavy usage of various devices that have long since been abandoned after much usage in the

It appears that UK site TV-Links.co.uk (now defunct), has been shut down by anti-piracy groups in a raid on the owner's home - which was sieged by Federation Against Copyright Theft (FACT) for piracy of movies, and tv shows. The scary part is that this site was not hosting the actual content, but encouraging users to upload and share them on the site.The biggest contributing factor to the raid,

It's fall, and with the leaves changing color and the offset of Winter on its way comes the new additions to the TV line-up. Unfortunately, there's nothing original or worth watching in this new season.

There are many moments throughout the history of television that have changed or revolutionized the way shows are made or what can be said, but in recent times we've had some strict enforcement of censorship - except for a few times where certain shows managed to break free from censorship restraints and make the unspeakable or unthinkable appear in front of millions of syndicated viewers.1)

Veoh is a fairly new video host service that boasts greater quality and an assortment of videos, including many illegal copyrighted works - which it's CEO claims were uploaded by users. The odd part about Veoh's stellar growth and commercial success is that the video host surprisingly started off initially with a very large database of videos from the day of launch.

Long time since I last posted, but I have some juicy information for Lost Fans.

And thankfully, they have apparently decided to start showing full seasons of their shows on a special ABC platform website that will unveil sometime in the 3rd Quarter of

The 7 Wonders of the World have been announced (broadcasted live on IPTV). I predicted 5 of the winners correctly, not bad but it was quite predictable - I think the results are quite fair, none of the modern wonders made it (e.g. Sydney's opera house, or the Statue of Liberty - given to the US by France).

Video is undoubtedly killing television, and with TV's demise comes the death of serveral television stars - who are all vulnerable to their latest escapades being covered by the various tabloid websites popular on the Internet.

When you live in a country as ethnically diverse as America, Canada, UK or any other country for that matter, you're bound to have people whose culture or language differs from that of the dominant culture. Large Telecoms and Media companies have exploited this for far too long and they usually offer a basic tier of cable, and special language or cultural channels are deemed "speciality channels"
