Top Shot on the History Channel

[Jeremiah/Az]

I liked the 500 magnum revolvers! Did you see all that fire coming out the sides of the cylinder before the bullet & the recoil? The girl's hands were shaking "purty" bad too.

I can't watch the show because Colby makes me want to shoot my TV, I'd like to punch him in the mouth to shut him up then it might be a decent show...

Aw, come on now... he ain't that bad. He has to say something, but it's not like we're listening to the radio and NEED the obvious comments... "John hit one, and Jeff hit one... Jeff hits another... John hits one... and another... they're both hitting targets...."

Lame, but someone has to do it, and Colby deserves a lot for giving that $1 million to Tina in keeping with his deal with her... a real gentleman... on the Survivor Show.

True he's a class guy but he needs to develop his own style and not clone Jeff Probst who does an excellent job.

I do think he's slightly less robotic this year, less wooden perhaps and might loosen up some as he gains experience. It's a new ball game for him and he's still learning. I suspect he's already more than made up that million he gave to Tina. Wonder if he still has the Harley she bought him?

Jeff blathers, too, like he's doing radio coverage... while we're watching it happen.

I got sick of that show 3-4 years ago. I would have liked to have seen the season with poker player Jean-Robert Bellande. He's a BIG guy and was interesting, I'm sure.

Both commentators are a waste of groceries. They think they are entertainers but are just background clutter.

Thanks, Ray. I figured it was about time. My recorders were set already. The one in my computer room won't record it until 2AM because of other scheduled stuff. The one in the TV room has an external antenna as well as the satellite and can record 2 off the sat and one over the air. I need to make sure it's set, though. That DVR was replaced and I'm not sure if I have it set.

I like how last season ended with the young, self-taught guy winning.

Thanks for the heads up! DVR is set!

I can't believe you guys are into reality shows. What's next, soap operas? I'd rather spend my time at the range.

I watch the intro to see what kind of weapon/challange they have. If the type of weapon does not interest me I am off to something else. I call the show Posers, Punks and Goobers.

I'd like to like that show, but there is just to many over inflated ego's and useless drama.

Yeah, and the host describing everything anybody does as if he is a radio commentator and we can't see and hear what is happening without his annoying babble!

[Longitude Zero]

There are many far better shooters who ARE NOT chosen. The producers put more value in the "chemistry" and potential for conflict. Bare minimal shootng skills get you in the door. If you do not have the persoanlity traits they want you are back out that door toot sweet.

I just finished watching the bio vids for season 4. Neither of the women impressed me. I really liked the British guy. He seems to have a great personality....who knows if he can shoot though. As for the next top shot, I'll put my money on Tim or Gary.
