There’s a frightenly detailed review of the Jem DVD Boxset up at Sequential Tart, complete with photos of Jem dolls. I think no matter what the show, there’s a fandom for it.
Another show with a frenzied fandom is Sailor Moon, and there’s yet another frighteningly detailed review of the live action Sailor Moon TV show [...]



Wrinkle in Time

I accidently caught a couple minutes of the ABC tv movie “A Wrinkle in Time“. I don’t know if it was just bad casting or the product of reading the book so often when I was younger, but my reaction was “Yikes, that isn’t Meg! No, that isn’t Calvin! No way is that Charles Wallace…Alfre [...]



the dvd that should not be

I’m mystified as to why Jem and the Holograms is getting a 2 season dvd boxset. I’m as happy to indulge in 80s nostalgia as the next person, but this seems to be going a little too far



sci-fi channel getting good again?

I haven’t watched much on it since they canceled Farscape. But in addition to the new Farscape mini-series, they are adapting the anime Witch Hunter Robin as a live action series and producing a half-hour comedy based on Mike “Hellboy” Mignola’s Amazing Screw-On Head. And they’re letting Bruce Campbell write and direct a movie. Sounds [...]



Mark Cuban Reality Show

Yikes! The insane owner of the most wonderful basketball team ever with a forward/center from Germany is getting his own reality tv show. The show is called “The Benefactor” and he gives away 1 million dollars to the winner.
I want some of that Mark Cuban money. I wonder if I applied to get on [...]



unpopular series

There is a problem with watching series that are sometimes critically acclaimed, have a fanatical following, yet don’t do well in the ratings. Eventually they get canceled. I’m a little bummed about Angel getting the plug pulled. I was really enjoying the current season, especially with the return of my favorite lawyer with an evil [...]

Over the past couple days I’ve watched most of the first season of Alias. I’d forgotten how much the show has shifted in tone. Sydney doesn’t seem to take the time to light candles around her house and listen to weepy female oriented music anymore. Watching hours of the show back to back also tends [...]

It is nice they referenced the other hellmouth in Cleveland.
Buffy didn’t really redeem itself for a sucky season, but it was a good ending. I wonder how Spike is going to appear on Angel next season since he got all burnt up? Maybe they will collect his ashes in a decorative urn that Angel can [...]
