What a shocker huh??? \u00a0Actually, I shouldn&#8217;t be so quick to judge. \u00a0The only\u00a0redeeming\u00a0value in watching this potty-filled mud\u00a0was that the ultimate flush was that this ended on the date of 12\/21\/12 when the ancient Mayans had predicted the end of the world. \u00a0FLUSH! \u00a0You see, as lame as that is, that is the only thing I can even imagine the writers of this dog-waste were thinking was to make the connection between the two dates of 12\/12\/12 and 12\/21\/12. \u00a0It&#8217;s giving me flashbacks to my binary computer programming days with all these 1&#8217;s and 0&#8217;s. \u00a0Are 1&#8217;s and 0&#8217;s really that spooky that you make a movie about them?<\/p>\n<p>Anyhow, don&#8217;t ever watch this down-the-toilet turd. \u00a0I have wasted enough of my life watching, and then writing about 12\/12\/12 and it&#8217;s\u00a0flush-ability-ness. \u00a0I can only hope that 13\/13\/13 will be better.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8216;Holy Moly&#8217; is all I can say! \u00a0This was truly one for the ages. \u00a0Brandee and I were Netflix&#8217;in for something to watch other than Columbo. \u00a0It wasn&#8217;t that we don&#8217;t like Columbo &#8211; if fact just the opposite but for whatever reason Netflix only has a total of 32 of these episodes to watch???
