Not necessarily in the order that I watched these, but here are some thoughts on recent TV shows on IMDBtv, Netflix, and ANT1Leverage: RedemptionI was surprised to see this series rebooted under the IMDBtv brand, but I was also delighted to see it back. The original ran for five seasons, and it was a story of sticking up for the little guy.  This second series is that, and it's also about the

The other day in facebook this image came up in my timeline.  It's in Greek, but basically the text translates as: Dad: If you don't study (hard) you will become like this guy Hobo: I am professor! I guess regardless of the country, there are issues in higher education.  In the US we have a high population of (low paid) adjuncts, and in Greece you have tenured folks making less than

Πριν κάτι χρόνια, που δούλευα στην βιβλιοθήκη τα πράγματα ώρες ώρες ήταν βαρετά γιατί περίμενες να έρθει ο πελάτης και δεν ερχόταν (ίδια όταν τελείωνε το τρίμηνο και όλοι οι φοιτητές πήγαιναν σπίτια τους).Εκει λοιπόν, δεν

Από την άνοιξη παλεύω να τελειώσω μια Ελληνική σειρά στο Mega με τον τίτλο “πίσω στο σπίτι”.  Σε κανονικό browser το web player του Mega δεν παίζει λόγο του ότι είναι στην Αμερική, αλλά ευτυχώς (για κάποιο λόγο) το ipad δεν δίνει γεωγραφικές

A Greek song (original in music video form bellow) sung IN GREEK by a Japanese band. Now that's what I call Freakin' Awesome! I wonder if the band is learning (or speaks) Greek, or if it was all transliterated to katakana

OK, this video is all in Greek, but it is pretty humorous nevertheless. It's an excerpt from Radio Arvila, a Greek comedy show (from what I gather), where the commentators are making fun of the "everything worthwhile was invented by Greeks" crowds (at least that's what I got out of it).

I saw this trailer for Plato's Academy - a new Greek comedy (it seems).It's times like these that I wish my local theater (which does make a point to show artsy films) had Greek cinema as well.Heck, Peabody is right next door and there are lots of Greeks there, maybe they should have a Greek Film of the Month ;-)This trailer was also good ;-)
