TV- Letterkenny

You're having a beer with your pals the other daaaaaay....The finale for Letterkenny was this past May (at least for us Hulu viewers, maybe it was available earlier in Canada), so I thought I'd write a couple thoughts on the series. Letterkenny takes place in a rural Ontario community, which took its name from Letterkenny in Ireland and is populated mostly by the descendants of Irish immigrants

TV - Ghosts (CBS & BBC)

OK, so here's a series to watch if you have yet to see it. It's an American adaptation of a British series of the same name.  I am not always a fan of adaptations, but sometimes the adaptation is on par and even better than the British Original.  I like both versions, but the American version has more episodes available. British seasons only have 6 episodes per season, or 7 if there's a Christmas

TV - People of Earth

Here's another show from my sci-fi catch-up watch.  This one was on Hulu, I think, and it's a comedy about alien abductees.The series follows city journalist Ozzie Graham, played by Wyatt Cenac, who travels to Beacon, New York to write a piece on a support group called "StarCrossed," who are survivors of alien encounters. The abductees are stereotypical tin-foil-hat folks. Although skeptical at

TV Recap - 2021 Miscellaneous (Part II)

Some more TV watching... or rather thoughts on TV shows that I caught up on over the past year 📺Brooklyn 99Brooklyn 99 wrapped up this year. It was one of our favorite comedies, but given everything that's been happening in the US the producer's decision to wrap it up made sense.  This final season addresses stuff that happened in the real world, which sees Rosa quit and become a PI, Hitchcock

TV Recap - Miscellaneous (Part I)

Man, with this pandemic, I've watched more new TV than in previous years... I think the only time I watched as much TV was when I had TV shows on my iPod Touch back in the day... Here are some miscellaneous items from this past year: Star Wars: Bad BatchI tried watching The Clone Wars before (seemed like something I should watch), but I never really got into it.  The animation style just

TV Binging and Series Finales (part II)

The other post was getting a bit long, so I am continuing it here (who knows, there may even be a part III!) Marvel's Agents of SHIELD I rather liked this series. It follows a group of SHIELD agents who are protecting the earth from whatever big bad happens to exist. All events take place after the first Avengers movie, so the big bad that kicked it off was HYDRA, and Agent Coulson was brought back

TV Binging and Season Finales (part I)

Well, the one thing about this COVID-19 crisis hitting in the summer is that we have a lot of television to catch up on. This year is also the year of many final seasons of television shows.  I don't know if this was planned, or it was a good opportunity with the on-going pandemic.  I suspect a little bit of both (depending on the show).  Here are some quick thoughts on some recent

The Orville - scifi humor!

The Orville is a scifi comedy show coming to FOX this coming fall.  It being on FOX, if the show is any good it will most likely be cancelled (LOL), but I hope it's good and it stays on the air (if Family Guy is still on the air...then surely this must remain as well!) Many seem to be comparing it to Galaxy Quest, but I think the comparison is a bit off.  Galaxy Quest was about actors

This week in Japan (?!)

I don't know if this technically counts as a song...but it's got a beat, and it's got words...so I guess it might be one? This was discovered while watching @midnight (a comedy web-culture show) this morning. Japan (?) PPAP ペンパイナッポーアッポーペン「ロング」バージョン by PIKOTARO(ピコ太郎) Verdict: No words are sufficient to describe this... just "LOL" I guess?
