Chthonic, Tentacular, and just a little Squamous

This is Mad Science of Grinding Metal with a special announcement:

"Stop watching House! The show you should all be watching is The Ultimate Fighter (Spike TV, Monday nights at 10:00)."

While House is somewhat entertaining in a grumpy, snide, disease of the
week sort of way, the Ultimate Fighter kicks the ass of every other show
on TV. Literally.

Some of you are already asking: "But Mad Science, the Ultimate Fighter is
but one show against many. How can it possibly kick the ass of all the other
show on TV?"

The answer is simple grasshoper. All the other shows on TV are made up
of actors, or whiny "real" people. The Ultimate Fighter is made up of 16
professional cage fighters who are cooped up in one house 24x7 with nothing
to do except train, eat, and fight as they compete to win a UFC contract.
There is not a single real person on this show. Everyone is a mixed martial
arts combat mutant who's pain receptors have been carefully removed by the
judicious application of blunt instruments.

If the producers of the Ultimate Fugger told the contestants "Today's challenge
is to see who can kill and eat the most members of the cast of House." Then the
Ultimate Fighter contestants would ask if they could have some catsup with their
Hugh Laurie because he looks "a little Chewy".

Real human drama. Real human pain. Real human blood. You want it. You need it.
The Ultimate Fighter has it all.


Your regularly scheduled House blogging will resume next week provided the cast
of House is not consumed by ravenous cage fighters in the interim.
