Comments: One of the worst log movements I've seen from FPAG, First he almost puts out the flame and then mishandles the poker. Disappointing performance from FPAG, maybe its time to send him a message and bench him while Red Plaid gets a shot in the prime time.

Comments: Fantastic log movement. That was a full rearrangement of the fire with sparks everywhere. The only trouble was is it's taking a bit for the fire to get going--maybe new log is damp?

OMG

Comments: Blue plaid FPAG is going crazy! Not liking the fact it's not holding a flame long enough. He showed total disdain for the two that were not burning enough by stoking them for a good 10 seconds, causing them to fall and spark. New log is a gooder and will probably boost the status when it gets rolling.

FPAG is ruining my naps on the couch. I keep rolling over when ever he pulls the one hook poker out.

Wow, purely by chance caught him in the act while surfing channels, at about 11:37 PM. This is a first for me, as I'm not a big follower of the show. You can be sure I will be bragging to my coworkers about this tomorrow.

My 2 year-old now enjoys watching the Shaw HD fire. And whenever FPAG makes an appearance, he squeaks out "Daddy, Daddy, arm, arm, 'gain!"

Seems like FPAG fell under the radar this season.

Has anyone else noticed conversations in the background this season? I swear this distraction might be part of the problem that we see in the rather disappointing Blue Plaid performance....sad lack of focus if this is the case on BPFPAG's part!

I believe that this is a movement by the anti-FPAG coalition. Many believe that because it is such a simple application of basic fire stoking skills that they can bypass the established FPAG and record their own fire being stoked by non-unionized amateurs for less money.

Their establishment is believed to be referred to as FAGG, as Fireplace is one word they believe themselves to be the Fireplace Arm Guy Guild.

I say we exterminate those scab bitches.

I've got to admit, Shaw wins this one, as here at Bell we have the fireplace but no FPAG as far as I know.We do have it in French and English HD though and the French version is much better.

I liked that when setting up a digital terminal through shaw they use the fireplace channel to make sure everything is working fine.

"sir do you see the fireplace? Excellent, everything is in working order then".
