Daytime TV is for the birds!

20 Feb

I have been sick at home since Wednesday evening… nice to be able to get the rest I need but man, is it boring! Yesterday, I discovered that TBS runs episodes of American Dad and Family Guy in the afternoon and happily spent a few hours enjoying that. Do you know what I noticed? That apparently if you are at home on a weekday watching cartoons, it is apparently because you have a drug abuse problem and you need to go seek treatment at Passages Malibu.

Seriously?  Continue reading

Stewart here…

We’ve been spending this first season with SG-1 fighting Apophis’ forces, discovering (and occasionally alienating) new civilizations, but still not closer to finding or curing Sha’re or Skarra. Well, we’ll get one step closer in this round of minicaps, so let’s jump into it… Continue reading

What’s there to really recap from last time? The team has learned a lot of new things about Teal’c (surprise, he killed a lot of people under Apophis’ orders) and about how Goa’ulds reproduce (basically its like normal sex, but instead of a baby, its a tub full of larvae). Let’s see where this next round of minicaps takes us… Continue reading

Welcome back, Arrowheads! So, Mr. Brickwell has managed to force the cops of Starling out of the Glades, despite the Black Canary/Laurel Lance helped Team Arrow trying their best to prevent that. Malcolm wants to skip town, but Thea is willing to stay and maybe face Ra’s and his League with dear old double-crossing dad. And Ollie has survived his duel with Ra’s with the help of Maseo and a seemingly estranged Tatsu. Well, here’s hoping he gets back soon, because Starling City is getting pummeled in bad news… Continue reading

Finally had a chance to check out The Librarians. (And you should too)

2 Feb

One of the first bits of original programming TNT did was a television movie called, The Librarian: Quest for the Spear. Twenty years later, star Noah Wyle and producer Dean Devlin teemed up to produce a series that continues the adventures of the librarians. Noah’s “Flynn Carter” led three films for TNT, and came to frequently guest star within this first season show as both a lead in and something to attract fans of the films. But the rest of the cast and characters introduced in the first episode were strong enough to carry the show without Carter being around constantly.

The Stargate SG-1 Season One Minicaps just introduced Teal'c to Justin Bieber's music.  He'll be in restraints for a while.

Stewart here…

The team has made some interesting allies (Teal’c’s mentor, Bra’tac), some interesting reveals about each other (Teal’c left a family behind), and some interesting reveals about their universe (there’s “Ancient Ones” who may still be around. Also, Sha’re and Skarra: still not found. So with that, let’s jump in… Continue reading

Welcome back, Arrowheads! So good news, everyone: Oliver Queen’s alive! Maseo and Tatsu are healing him up in a cabin, so he’s not aware of the crapstorm building up in Star City. The rest of Team Arrow seems to be splintered thanks to their boss being gone. Malcolm wants to take Thea before Ra’s shows up. Criminal “Brick” has enough manpower to lay siege to the Glades. But, there is one good thing that happens: Laurel gets into a Canary suit and starts fighting bad guys! So let’s get this party started… Continue reading

Television Graveyard- plot 11, Charmed… still charming after all these years

27 Jan

The 90’s brought about girlpower- from Xena to Buffy to the Spice Girls. For a few years, every where you looked something was empowering young girls. This is a good thing, right?
