I just was flipping the channels and on NBC, a national fucking network, they had American Ninja Warrior on.

Shit.

Years ago, this was syndicated shit that would be on at midnight on some podunk channel.

What the hell is this?

We have watched some of it and would watch more if it wasn't for the Star Wars obsession.

My daughter loves it. Mainly for when the person fails, but still.

I dont know about the falling part but if its on we usually hear chants of "Lets go team!". I think she gets more excited for the successes.

Why do these idiots subject themselves to this? It makes zero sense given they are in public office.

The majority of them were duped by Sasha Baron Cohen. It wasn't like they were subjecting themselves into it for satirical purposes. This guy for example is pretty damn dumb.

There have been a few others that caught on as they were trying to film the pieces and refused to cooperate.

So, they are just morons. How can they possibly not know that it is satire?

I guess when you're surrounded by a bunch of cameramen and other people it's hard to say no at that point? I honestly have no idea. It has to be some sort of weird social phenomenon because no one could objectively think that doing these things is a good idea.

Castle Rock is now available on Hulu.

Just finished the first episode. It has a good vibe. Lots of King easter eggs.

Judging from the trailers and reviews, it is not what I was expecting when they ran that first teaser trailer a while back. I am still looking forward to it, though.
