I was just thinking about Jason Momoa the other day, so I’m using this TMZ video as an excuse to write about him. What’s going on with Jason lately? I miss him. I wish we had new photos of him – I would be a very happy girl if we constantly had new photos of Michael Fassbender, Jason Momoa and Tom Hardy. Although I don’t think Jason is going to set the world on fire with his acting skills, I do think there’s a place for him in Hollywood. He doesn’t have any movies coming out this year, but he’s got two films for 2013, Bullet to the Head (a Sylvester Stallone movie) and Road to Paloma (a thriller which also features Lisa Bonet). Basically, he’s still struggling. Which sucks.
Anyway, about the TMZ video – some (annoying) TMZ videographer/photographer caught up with Jason outside of… a bar? The airport? I don’t know. Jason was asked if he watches TV, and Jason says he doesn’t own a TV, and he also says he doesn’t have a cell phone (note the photo I’m using of Jason using a cell phone). I think the cell phone comment was a joke, like Jason just happened to be without his cell phone on this night.
As for the TV thing… I’ve always disliked the “I don’t have a TV” or “I don’t watch TV” comments, especially when the comment comes from a place of superiority, like the person has “better things” to do with their time. The quality of (SOME) TV programs continues to astound me – for my money, shows like Mad Men, Game of Thrones, The Closer, etc – those TV shows are superior to most films in both quality and storytelling. Now, was Jason saying he doesn’t own a TV to sound superior? Or is he just a big ol’ hippie? Unknown.
Just look at the pretty pictures! That’s all anyone cares about.

He doesn’t do anything for me in the looks department – his eyes are really odd.

yeah he has downturned and hooded eyes and that plus the really high arch create a really strange look. Plus he has those demon eyebrow bumps that when taken together give off sort of a devilish look.
I was wondering who this guy was though before I realized he was in game of thrones. I knew he looked familiar. But in the top pic, he kind of looks like a deadbeat dad/former back up dancer.

I would love to spend a TV free evening with Jason and he must not speak at all because it would ruin everything!
Oh and Kaiser I think I remember the interview about him and his cell phone and then there was a picture of him and it was clearly in his front pocket. He tries to outsmart the interviewer and photographer and that ain’t never going to happen with this dude. I think Jason is a pretty boy but he ain’t got nothing under that hat but hair.
PS CB perhaps a photo expose by the end of the summer of the looks great with no shirt/and no brains necessary guys for us CB’ers.

i dont have a tv either, BUT i watch the series/movies im into online. this way i choose what i wanna watch, when i wanna watch it without any advertising etc. i also no longer get stuck watching some stupid show whilst waiting on the show i planned to watch. nor do i get stuck watchin show after show that i usually wouldnt watch, just because im zapping the channels. i find the online option more efficient. especially because i can surf the net whilst i minimise the videos lol i guess i feel more in control of what i expose myself to, that doesnt make me superior though. i actually feel rather left out because i cant talk about the coolest new songs (i dont listen to the radio either lol) or talent shows contestants with colleages etc.
the only time i watch tv is when i watch sports events with friends/family. we mute the advertisements though lol theyre too effin annoying lol

If I like an HBO show, I buy the DVD. It’s cheaper and I can re-watch whenever I want. I may be a season behind but it doesn’t matter to me. I only buy one show anyway so it would be stupid to pay all that money for HBO throughout the year plus all the other channels you get just for 10 – 12 episodes.

YES me too. I haven’t had a television in years and I love it most of the time. On the down side, it’s difficult to join into conversations sometimes (esp with people you don’t know well). And there’s always, ahem, the perception that you don’t have a tv because you’re loftier-than-thou. For most of the people I know who don’t have a television, it’s a budget consideration. And it definitely doesn’t mean you’ve have better things to do with your time. I waste hours mindlessly surfing the internet every day. So when I tell people I don’t have a tv, I’m not judging and I’m not bragging, and neither are the other people I know who don’t own television sets. We just relax in a different way so what.

You’re right. In my area you can’t get good reception without cable, and I can’t afford it. My television was on the blink anyway, so I just got rid of it. You do feel left out of the loop sometimes, but most of the shows I want to see I can watch on my computer sooner or later, so I really don’t miss it.

I know a couple of people who worked on Stargate: Atlantis as props wranglers (yeah, I know, wrong term but I can’t remember the formal title) who say he’s a great guy to work with: very easygoing, never complains, works hard, shows up on time, doesn’t do diva-ish crap, a smile and a friendly word for everyone. One of them says he’s pretty bright — not rocket scientist bright, but smart for all that — but the whole laid-back, Hawaii surfer dude thing leads folks to think he’s a lot dumber than he is.

There really are people out there who don’t watch a lot of TV or follow shows religiously. Most of them do actually own a TV, but they don’t watch much of it. I don’t think it was a superiority thing. I think it’s just a lifestyle thing most people can’t imagine. I had a no tv during the week rule growing up and I’m not dumb or a hippie. I did, however, have a great childhood of playing outside, crafts, reading, and finding constructive ways to entertain myself. Of course on the weekends i’d watch TV a little bit, but even now at 25 I don’t watch much unless it’s a season on DVD with no commercials and only one cliffhanger

I agree, every time someone asks me if I watch so-and-so TV show, I say, no, I don’t watch it.

c) thecountry where I live has a TV licence obligation (and getting caught without one costs a lot) and I don’t feel like paying for a TV and paying to move it around
aaaand… the most important reason:
d) I see all the shows on my (quite good) laptop (no it doesn’t have a TV tuner, just uhhh….. other means of acquisition)
