Attack of the Show: TV's only source for all the stuff you care about

I don't know if it's a recent phenomenon though. After Sarah Lane left to pursue other projects, the show never felt quite the same to me, made worse by the addition of Munn as her replacement. She has no geek cred with me (largely because she is not as tech savvy as Sarah was), and her mannerisms are extremely unappealing. In my case, I didn't like her from day one, and my contempt worsened with every following episode.

It's a HUGE - for me.

Some guys find her physically attractive (I don't), but for the sake of this discussion, let's go with this notion. Beyond a seemingly attractive facade, she brings nothing else to the table, in terms of qualifications. She is no different than any other aspiring actress hoping to catch a break in Los Angeles (or wherever the show is filmed); in her case, my guess is being at the right place at the right time. There's nothing wrong with having luck on your side, if you can offer your audience something more than a pretty face, which she doesn't. She's a one-note individual with a one-dimensional personality (much like the models that are featured in FHM or MAXIM magazine). Truth is, any attractive passer-by pulled off the street can do what she does, i.e. smile, laugh and basically, ham it up for the camera.

Kevin Pereira may be obnoxious and conceited, but at least he knows his stuff. With him, I think there's a genuine interest in all things tech-related that Munn never had, or ever will. In my book, he has geek cred, but Munn doesn't (not that she cares).

All I want is someone who is semi-competent at her job, someone who does more than laugh on cue. I miss the professionalism that Sarah Lane brought to her job.

Watched today... it was like a sea of hot women! Forget the name of the woman who hosted, but then the news lady was very very pretty (with charm!). To boot they had the girl from Modern Family on as well.

Alison Haislip was the hpst! SHES AWESOME!

[Mike53421]

Who's the news girl? She's quite pretty!

Julie Bowen or Sofía Vergara? These are the only two I care about.

No, the oldest daughter. She's actually 21 in real life.

And I've never found Olivia annoying or b!tc#y. I actually still prefer her on AOTS.

Sarah Hyland, the girl who plays the oldest daughter. I'm not too big on her since she's like 19 but... for those who are...

EDIT: 21? Really... she looks really young though.

Alessandra Torresani will be on AOTS LIVE on October 5th! WOO!

That's Layla Kayleigh, she was co-hosting some dance show on MTV, got pregnant and last time I saw her she was modeling a "Power Girl" costume for comicon that looked way better than Carrie Keagan's

Last time I saw her was on some paid programming for debt cures...I have never watched paid programming for that long!

I highly doubt Olivia said that, since she is smart enough to know what side her bread is buttered on. I honestly didn't watch the show before Olivia, but she definitely seemed to be phoning it in towards the end. Where she kind of lost some cred with me was when she said at the end of the SDCC that she'd still pop in at AOTS and then didn't.

So I've stopped following her tweets and Facebook posts. I'll give the new girl a chance and see how it goes. Kind of wish they had gone with Haslip or Webb. While Morgan didn't have the timing Alison does with Keven, she at least brought her love of gaming to the arena. While Carrie Keagan might be appealing to some, given her assets, she didn't have a clue Guess we'll see how the new girl does 1-11-11

Check out her book.

And I'm going to give Candace a few weeks of my time. But I'm Team Haislip forever. Candace needs to wow me to keep me with the show.
