Special Ops Mission

September 18th, 2009

wil There’s this great show that showed up this season on the Military Channel called Special Ops Mission. Unfortunately last night marked the last episode of the first season. I am really hoping they bring it back for a second run! If you haven’t seen the show it centers around one Operator named Wil Willis who has the tough task of competing several objectives against a larger force of enemies. The show utilizes real weapons with what are called Simunitions so the encounters are as close to real as you can get.

Now obviously this isn’t an exact simulation of what a Military Operation would be like but it is pretty close. Wil manages to outsmart his opponents on numerous episodes and is pretty funny to boot. I have enjoyed every minute of the program and I have written the Discovery Channel to let them know.

If you have seen and like the show be sure to go here and fill out the form to let them know you enjoyed the show and want to see it continue!

Three Sheets on MOJOHD

April 17th, 2008

Not often does a TV show come along that caters to several of my favorite interests. Those interests of course being Booze and Traveling, the first I have quite a bit of experience with but the second not as much. So I am able to live through Zane on Three Sheets. Three Sheets is a great show on MOJO HD where Zane Lamprey travels around the globe experiencing all sorts of different drinking cultures. From drinking exotic beers to even more exotic hard liquors every show is sure to be a new adventure. I would call Zane the Mike Rowe of drinking shows, he genuinely loves his job, he’s funny, and seems like an all around nice guy.

One of my personal favorites was the Belgium episode, I had no idea there could be so many different flavors of beer from Apple to Orange.. another was the Germany episode because really how can you go wrong with Oktoberfest? (The hot beer chicks helped too yikes :D ) The episodes are always funny and many feature appearances by Pleepleus Zane’s Monkey sidekick. I challenge anyone to sit through an entire episode without craving their favorite drink or beer I know that I have to crack open a brew every time I watch the show.

If you happen to get the MOJO channel (I get it on Comcast) and want to learn more about booze and be amused at the same time then you should tune into this show. If you don’t get it on cable you can get it either on the MOJO Website or on HULU. The new season just started Thursdays at 9pm EST and tonight Zane heads off to Rio..
