I cancelled the Network because I realized the only thing I was consistently watching on it was NXT and I already had Hulu.

I refuse to sub the network because after taking forever to get it going in the UK they had the balls to charge double for it.

It was a TNA writer, it was used as a point of comparison for why internet darlings don't get pushed.

OT question: does Hulu Plus still have ads, especially with criterion collection movies? I'm not gonna pay for ad breaks.

For TV shows, yes. It's usually 2-3 ad breaks with 1-3 short commercials.

The Criterion Collection doesn't have ads because that's the only way they'd allow them to be put on Hulu.

Everything else still has ads. I don't understand this "I'm not paying for advertisements!!!" mentality when that's literally what everyone was doing with cable for decades. And Hulu's ad breaks at least tend to be shorter than cable.

Brock might show up tonight, since he bailed on his last appearance and in theory WWE would still be owed a make up date from that.

I went to the Raw taping for last show of 2014 and it turned out to be a pretty good one, between the Usos winning the tag titles, the Ascension debuting, E&C hosting, and an actual Lesnar sighting.

Smackdown is taping here tomorrow night and I couldn't give a gently caress less.

I'm excited for Wrestlemania, just because I'm always excited for Wrestlemania each year at this time. I love the atmosphere, the special massive set, outdoor arenas like this years, all the preshows, the hall of fame, and all that.

The card? Yeah, it kinda has me meh. Everything else though? :allears:

last year's wrestlemania seemed like the birth of a new era. a crazy-over new top guy, cena not champion or in the main event, the streak broken, new guys going over old guys. this one seems like we'll get Camoan Cena against everybody's will and that will be all that's new

"Okay, just follow my lead for 20 minutes, I'll guide you through this match and get us both over. Literally the only thing you need to do at the end is weakly flop your arm over my chest to get the pinfall. That's all you have to do. That is it."

West has some appeal to the young folks thanks to Family Guy, better to get whoever played him in the 80's or something.

Bill DeMott's trending on twitter right now because of this.

It's a lot of stuff I feel like I've heard about before - "Bill DeMott sounds like human garbage" - but it's picking up some traction this time. Too long to dump it into a quote here, but worth a look.

Going to hurt people's perception of HHH too since he personally hired DeMott and doesn't he actually have a live feed to the Performance Center so he actually sees what goes on during practice?
