I find it odd to say this, but dammit, the season opener of The Ultimate Fighter 24 was surprisingly good.
It isn't going to win any Emmy's unless it's for the category of "show they should have cancelled ten years ago" but I've got to say, I'm digging it so far. The new format, the lack of BS, the prospect of real talent -- I like it.
Of course, by far the biggest influencing factor was my obsessive compulsive behavior not allowing me to entertain the idea of not being as familiar as possible with Mighty Mouse's next opponent. That was 99% of it realistically. But if last nights' episode is any tease of what is going to come in the future, I'm happy I bought into it. I guarantee this excitement won't last past this season. But for TUF 24, I'm on board. For now.
If you want to be kept in the loop with what's going on this season but don't feel like watching, I'm going to be doing recaps & reviews every week.
This was a 2 hour episode with a lot of information, so thankfully next week's recap shouldn't be such a FWAT and will hopefully be quite a bit shorter in length. If not, feel free to yell at me. Actually, you can go ahead and yell at me now, really -- I'm sure I deserve it for one reason or another.
