Thumbnail image for miamipdbadge.jpg
Miami Police department homicide detective's time in the reality TV spotlight may be over. For years producers of the popular A&E program The First 48 have followed local detectives during the first 48 hours after a murder, but with growing criticism that the show gives a bad name to Miami and requests that producers donate more to the Police Athletic League it appears that the relationship may be over.

No, the Miami Beach City Commission has not formally outlawed the Kardashians, but according to a report, the reality TV family may have trouble in their efforts to film another season of one of their various reality shows in Miami Beach. They're having a hard time finding a home in which they could film for a few months, because Miami Beach law requires the vast majority of your neighbors to sign off on the filming.

Hard Knocks Episode One: Thank God For Chad Johnson

Chad Johnson

Thank God for Chad Johnson. Last night, the "Look At Me" wide receiver was the star of the first episode of Hard Knocks: Training Camp With The Miami Dolphins on HBO. You get the feeling the Dolphins brain trust of General Manager Jeff Ireland and Head Coach Joe Philbin picked up the boisterous playmaker in the off-season just to give viewers a reason to tune in because everything else about the Dolphins is about as exciting as watching a bed-ridden senior citizen stroke victim fill out her absentee ballot.

The Franchise Episode 3 Recap: Crappy By Committee

Categories: Reality Bites

Three episodes into The Franchise, shit is already getting all kinds of depressing. After two episodes of ups and downs and HEY LOOK AT OUR NEW STADIUM! wackiness, the Marlins are in a tail spin, out of the playoff hunt, reverting to a closer by committee to cover up Heath Bell's dookie-filled-pants struggles, trading away players willy-nilly, and just not a fun team to root for.

And we're all re-living it with this show. Even the sultry sweet sounds of Jon Hamm's narration isn't enough to spare us the pain of the clustercrap that has become our ballclub. Still, it remains compelling television! Here's your recap:

The Franchise Episode 2 Recap: LoMo Meets His Hero & Lo Viste

It's fitting that the same day big trade rumors involving Heath Bell and Hanley Ramirez surface, episode two of The Franchise is pretty much framed around a trade deadline discussion roundtable with Jeffery Loria, Larry Beinfest and their DERP lackeys (or maybe the Marlins PLANTED those rumors as a sort of viral campaign for this episode!).

Episode two was all about Logan Morrison's quest to meet George Brett, Mike Stanton's knee surgery and Justin Ruggiano taking his family to the Seaquarium. Here's your recap:

The Franchise Episode 1 Recap: Peaks, Valleys, and F-Bombs

F-Bombs and badly Photoshopped posters? We got 'em!
The first episode of The Franchise: Miami Marlins featured a shitload of F-bombs and was narrated by Don Draper, officially making The Franchise the greatest thing on TV ever.

The first episode covered Ozzie Guillen's Fidel Castro comments, the team's blowing shit up in May, their shit-the-bed June, Giancarlo Stanton's epic awesomeness, and way the fuck too much David Sampson. All in all, though, it was a pretty good first episode, if a little rushed. Here's your recap:
