editor Posted June 21, 2008 Share Posted June 21, 2008 TruTV has a new "reality" show about guys from Odessa drilling for oil. It's called Black Gold. Never heard of Tru? It's the new name for what used to be CourtTV. Wednesday nights at 9pm. The first episode is free on iTunes. http://www.trutv.com/shows/black_gold/index.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
houstonmacbro Posted June 21, 2008 Share Posted June 21, 2008 Cool. Thanks for the heads up. Looks interesting. Will have to see if I have that channel.Speaking of oil ... have you heard of Gull Island and all the oil that is supposed to be there? Is that true or false. Internet is just turning up all these 2nd-tier Web sites. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cottonmather0 Posted June 21, 2008 Share Posted June 21, 2008 I think Matthew McConaughey's brother "Rooster" is on this show. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
editor Posted June 22, 2008 Author Share Posted June 22, 2008 I think Matthew McConaughey's brother "Rooster" is on this show.With a name like "Rooster" I guess he was destined to be on a reality show. Just goes to show you -- a child's destiny is determined by the parents. Like when you name your daughter "Chesty Love," what kind of career do you think that sets her up for? People need to pick baby names more carefully. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
houstonmacbro Posted June 22, 2008 Share Posted June 22, 2008 Actually, I am not sure I have Court TV. I downgraded my cable to the ATT U-verse Family Plan and the channel lineup sux. But I did download the free show on iTunes. Looking forward to watching it.I wonder if it's like Ax Men (awful)?If it's true, Mark Barnes will know about it.Apparently, the proponents of opening up domestic drilling claim there is something like 200 years worth of easy oil there.

houstonmacbro Posted June 22, 2008 Share Posted June 22, 2008 It's TruTv now! because it's cooler than Court TV! Just looked at my cable lineup. Apparently we have TruTV and TruTV West, but I am not subscribed to either as they are blacked out. Guess no hunky trashy oil men for me. :-( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
