Breaking In

So, I just found out that I can watch tv shows on the comcast website. WTF? How did I not know this before?! Having this feature is certainly nice since my mother insisted I bring home my TV two weeks before moving out of my apartment.

Anyway... that's how I found this show. I had remember seeing some commercials but I'm a really hard person to pull into a show sometimes... Mostly because I forget when the show is on.

And I'll admit, it isn't the best show but it's still pretty good for a half hour. I've only watched 4 episodes so far and I'll probably keep going while it keeps my attention.

Essentially, it is about this hacker [Cam] who is conned convinced to join Contra Security. It is a company that tests out the security of it's customers and finds any flaws. The cast is made up of a bunch of nutters interesting people.

We have our main guy, Cam. He was attending Loyola Technical School [and had been for 7 years] before they hired Contra. This is when we Oz, the boss of Contra Security. He finds out about Cam's little "full-ride scholarship" and forces convinces Cam to join his team. Oz is quite quirky and seems to know everything about everyone. It's quite scary sometimes. He's also 10 steps ahead of your next planned step. Crazy funny to boot.

And we have the rest of the team. There is Cash, who is the ultimate fanboy and techie. His particular fandom of choice that we've seen so far is Star Wars focused. He is also the resident prankster and of course he tends to take it way to far sometimes.

There is also the lock picker and safe cracker, Melanie. She's had a troubled past with her father being sent to jail and all. And she's the love interest only girl on the squad. According to Oz, she's that mad crazy chick you should not be involved with. Of course, that doesn't stop Cam from trying to pursue her.

But this is largely deterred since she has her boyfriend, Dutch. He is kind of loud and obnoxious but actually seems to know how to woo a girl. Strange. Anyway, he somehow ends up on the team of misfits security breakers by the third episode.

And there is Josh. He isn't a major part of the show but he is the master of disguise. Definitely worth a laugh or two. He is in a kind of pseudo fight with Cam to be on top... Not that Cam is really on top anyway...

Maybe I'll keep up with this show... Or maybe not. We'll see just how bored I get next week.

Youtube

Gonna be honest, you can find a lot of amusing things on youtube that you would have never seen otherwise. Of course, getting recommendations from friends makes navigating the site much more enjoyable. Basically this is a youtube spam recommendations post. Here are some of the amusing videos I've watched these past few days:

A tip of the hat to the history buffs out there.

 

For those who who aren't easily offended by a Hitler v.s. Jesus video, offensive language or surprises.

KITTIES!

I'd want a husky just so it could say awesome things.

I'm not a big baseball fan but this is an awesome video. But I'm biased cause I'm a Phillies phan. <3

DOCTOR WHO! <3 SERIES 6!

Got a favorite youtube video? Leave a link in a comment. <3 And hopefully I can get back to real posts soon.

I know... haven't been posting...

Outside of my lack of actually watching stuff, I've had other issues. If you're interested, you can view my computer issues here at my other blog.

And I'm sorry though there is only one person really following this. I feel like I've disappointed myself more so than anyone else. I'm working on it. Maybe a post on America's Best Dance Crew or Mob Wives? Or maybe on the return of Glee this Tuesday. We'll see...
