Random sound effects punctuate a fairly boring news week, which includes Green Lantern news, the announcement of a Sex and the City sequel, the WGA award winners, and other nonsense.

Joe could be greater than Transformers (hint: it's all in the promise), and why Lost may or may not know what it's doing. All that plus, an incomprehensible look at TV's big four's pilot orders, Jose's allergy attacks and the possible upcoming marketing nightmare for Carl's Jr. Email us @ podcast@thezeroroom.net Music by John Tagamolila at www.reverbnation.com/tagmusic Check us out on iTunes and at www.thezeroroom.net

Zero Room 039 : KZRM A new age of sound comes to the podcast as Jose does a dry run of integrated sound effects that works about half the time. Academy Award nominees are discussed at length. Should Dark Knight have been nominated? Will Paul Blart sweep next year's awards or will the poor choice of release date mean that Kevin James is forgotten come nomination time? Some news is read from a sheet of paper, Battlestar Galactica descends further into the darkness while Adama brushes his teeth, and Lost bounces through time.

Our quest to watch all the possible Oscar nominees continues with reviews of Gran Torino and an argument about exactly how good The Wrestler really is.

Zero Room 033: We're Back Doug and Jose return from vacation to talk about NBC's bold, history-making, and creatively bankrupt move of broadcasting Jay Leno five nights a week at 10pm. How long before they give up on scripted altogether? News coverage includes the voice of the Star Trek computer, the Terminator: Salvation trailer, Golden Globe nominations, and more. Plus, Doug rants unintelligibly about why the True Blood finale was a heavily flawed ending to an otherwise excellent series, and the climax of Marvel Comics Secret Invasion is dissected.

Hi all,

As the Holidays approach and all our time is stretched to the max, we're going to take a little break for a few weeks. So there will be no show this week or next. We may try to get a show in the following week, but no promises. So hang tight, we'll be back very, very soon to continue complaining about Star Trek.

Cheers,

The Zero Room Crew.
