New season started tonight. Pressure or not, some of them really suck. Wish I had time to audition.

What the heck! My DVR didn't record it!

I think they changed the name to top shot all stars instead of just top shot. Messed me up too but I caught it in time

It comes on again at 1 and then at 2 this morning

I found it and created a new series recording.

is the guy that bangs pots and pans all night on it?

No, I think he was proven to have stretched the truth a bit about his military service and probably would not be safe in that house.

We were in Shreveport for my buddy's wedding and the beefy black former seal sat down at our blackjack table.

I know it was him because I was trying to describe who he was to a friend sitting next to me by all the nutty things he did on the show. That was after several vodka tonics and I must have been talking louder than I meant to. He gave me the dirtiest, I'm going to break your face look.

Gonna have to set the Dvr for the new season.

Looking back, I should have asked for his autograph.

While some of their marksman skills are questionable at best, I did enjoy the premiere. Seems like they listened to a lot of the fan complaints: cut out most of the fake drama (so far anyways), no nomination range - just skill based on who goes home, no ability to hide within a team - all individual competitions so everybody has to show proficiency with all weapons or risk elimination. I like it so far, with the exception that it looks like they are already starting to reuse some of the previous challenges.

Thanks, agfan. I may actually start watching it again if they can stay away from all the drama.

I missed last night's episode. They they listen to the one about the dewshy host?

The fake drama sucked the life outta me a few years back and I haven't watched since season 2. What's the story on the guy that bangs pots and pans??

Wasn't the guy that bangs pots and pans the Navy Seal that LG is referring to? I really had my doubts as to whether or not that dude was a Seal.

That's the guy Burt. He apparently took the game a little too far and went psyops on everybody.

What's the story on him not being what he said he was? I thought when he was on the show it came out that he wasn't popular with former (and current, I guess) SEALs because he had a screw or two loose, and used the race card like it was going out of style, but not because he lied about his service?

Haha, no it's still good ol' Colby


Second, who are you guys talking about with this crazy guy? Can somebody say his actual name? He's not the boogeyman and going to come get you in the night just for saying his name.....

Can't stand Colby.

Later I found out he went to ttu and really couldn't stand him.

agfan2013 - His name is Jake Zweig.

Top Shot Allstars will be a snoozfest.

I just can't remember his name. Jake sounds right though. Maybe.

Age: 39
Hometown: Barrington, NH
Occupation: College Football Coach

“If you line up 60 SEALs in a shooting competition,” says Jake Zweig, “I will be in the top two every single time.” This outspoken football coach for the University of New Hampshire is a former Navy SEAL officer who uses rifles and pistols for hunting and recreation almost weekly. With the achievement of taking a college team to the top of its division under his belt, Jake claims that Top Shot needs someone like him. “I out-work people, out-hustle people and figure out a competitive edge to win,” he says. “It basically comes down to the fact that I have the innate ability to do the impossible consistently.”

Yup. That's him.

On again tonight.

I'll be watching.....

Apparently he is in San Antonio now.

Getting caught up. Watching last weeks episode. So far everything has had zero drama and it is great. That is until this episode. Seems like they are starting to give Kelly a hard time. I don't understand the hate the shooters have for this kid. I guess it is because he is young and one of the best shots on the show. He is my favorite. My least favorite is the navy swimmer guy and Brian "gunny" Zinns.

That's the same d-bag Adam that gave Kelly a hard time in the first season.

IMO Kelly is way more mature than most of the other guys there. They see him as an outcast because he chooses to spend his time differently.

Why the hate on Jamie?

That big AF dude was all over him the season they were on together, and I never figured out why.

Maybe it was Adam instead. There are a few of them I really don't care for very much. I usually fast forward through all the BS but this was the first time they had any of it this season

My favorite 2 guys and probably 2 of the 3 best shots sent home in consecutive weeks....
Kelly got jobbed by the team competintions all season. In this one he was the only guy on his team that did not get beat by a guy from another team. Then he gets stuck taking a stupid pistol shot and shooting a cannon

I'm very glad the show is 100% performance based this year, all the bullcrap from past seasons was annoying.

I thought Kelly would win It this time. Clearly a top shelf shooter among them. There HAS. To be a back story to this though. I actually have like ALL the guys this season. Presented in a very supportive fashion for all the shooters.

I haven't been following - was Kelly sent home?

Yeah got hosed this week by a team competition. He placed first or second in all the individual comps but then send to the proving grounds twice on team comps. Got into the elim challenge this week with cannons and got sent home.

I think he was the best shooter there this year as he won the most individual comps.
