With all the rain we’re getting this year, a lot of our summer so far has been spent indoors, glued to the boob-tube. And as we get deeper and deeper into the channels, the lines between bullsh*t and brilliance blur to a degree beyond recognition. So help us get our entertainment in check, tell us which show you think is the best on televison.
If we missed a show on the poll let me know in the comment section, so we can add it.

Perhaps you’ve heard of Affliction clothing? Even if you haven’t, you’ve seen it. It’s everywhere on television. The shirts with all the flaming skulls and crazy designs on them with the word ‘affliction,’ somewhere. These shirts first started popping up on MMA fighters at UFC events, but have suddenly disappeared from the cage. This is because they were banned by UFC President Dana White and company as soon as Affliction announced they would be hosting their own MMA fight card, which is scheduled for July 19th at the Honda Center in Anaheim, California.
This wouldn’t be that big of a deal, typically. As MMA has grown in the U.S., we’ve seen plenty of MMA organizations pop up; the IFL, Adrenaline, EliteXC. But Affliction is different in that for their first event, they have assembled what is probably the most ridiculous fight card of 2008. If you don’t recognize these names, its because the UFC doesn’t talk about them (they couldn’t manage to sign them), but the card boasts several UFC veterans as well.
Here’s our breakdown and predictions for some of the more important fights on the card. Read More »

This January, Fox will be trudging out Moment of Truth, a new show that pits mankind versus the most diabolical of machines: lie detectors.
Lie detectors, the unveiling of personal secrets, absolute truth - what could possibly go wrong?
Fox, ever the innovators, ordered the pilot for Moment of Truth in August, which is based on the successful (and recently canceled) Columbian series, Nothing But the Truth. As the Columbian rendition has proven, lie detector shows can get a bit messy when certain questions are asked.
Fox has taken precautions since that debacle, and will stick to questions about a contestant’s personal history, not legal matters. Read More »
Here at the College Candy offices, we watch a lot of TV. In our mindless daytime TV repertoire is everything you can ask for…if you’re asking for trash.But it’s good trash! Jerry Springer, The Price Is Right, Judge Judy, and then our favorite…back-to-back episodes of Maury.
I love Maury Povich. He’s pushing 70 and he can still instill fear into the toughest baby-daddy. And that, my friends, is admirable. After watching 2 episodes a day for the last few weeks, I’ve noticed a pattern from Maury. He’s not just a talk show host. He’s a teacher willing to listen, educate, and then find our real fathers. And because he’s a veritable saint, there are many things we could all learn from Mr. Povich.

After her less-than-stellar answer to a simple question concerning maps during the “Miss Teen USA” pageant Lauren Caitlin Upton appeared on the Today show to redeem herself.
Matt Lauer and Ann Curry, ever the defenders, hand-fed South Carolina’s finest cartographer her dignity by strategically answering the questions they asked before Upton had a chance to.
Curry: “…And it was the first time you had actually been on national television. Here you were competing and it was…it was…just one of those moments when you were asked this question…I’m sure everything came at you at once.”
Upton: “Yes. Everything did come at me at once.”
Moments later Lauer chimed in with an assist:
Lauer: “Please don’t let it get you down. I mean…and I know the fact that it’s on YouTube and a lot of people are watching it right now probably has to be a double-edged sword. On the one hand you think it’s kind of funny; on the other hand it’s not all that funny to you, is it?”
Upton: “Um, no, but then again looking back on it I am sitting here laughing at myself.”
Her answer mirrors Lauer’s 50/50 split of the incident being funny/not funny.

Where have all the good sitcoms gone? It’s a question that plagues TV viewers when we are bombarded with shows like “Till Death�? and have to watch Brad Garrett lecture Finch from American Pie on how his life has ended now that he’s become a limp-wristed child thanks to the institution of marriage. Not quite the guy who f***ed Stifler’s mom.
I’ll tell you what’s wrong with sitcoms nowadays: emasculation of the American Male due to Political Correctness. Is there even one strong male character on TV nowadays? No. They’re all portrayed as weak-willed morons whose humorous schemes always fail and are always being lectured to by their wives or the significant female leads without even trying to stand up for themselves. Whatever happened to the days of Ralph Kramden telling Alice, “straight to the moon�? whenever she nagged him-and ladies he did not mean a vacation! Where is Archie Bunker being…Archie Bunker?
