  1. Red's agent has said that Red does not want to be connected to this show in any way forward. So, no plush toys.
  2. Like Luke and R2D2 in Star Wars.
  3. Everyone keeps mentioning this, but I was taken aback by Drill. Drill?!? What kind of alien names their kid that?
  4. Sounds like the Middle East. :)
  5. I liked it. The kids were creepier than I thought they would be. The only thing I didn't like was the soap opera relationship stuff. The Strain did the same thing and It just got in the way of a good show. Does every show have to have a couple at odds?
  6. I think this is a show that was just on the edge and got cancelled. It could have went either way. Yep, the ratings weren't terrible which gives the show a fighting chance to land somewhere else. But, most of the time, it's over...or better put, it's not Forever. I couldn't help it.
  7. I actually didn't like or dislike her in 1 and 2, but it is borderline ridiculous that she can fight as good as she can. A couple of lessons with a boxer and a couple with Nyssa and she can hang in with some of the no-name League of Assassins. It would take her years of training to even get close to that.
  8. Liking It and watching it are two different things. Ratings are the prime motive for continuing a show. I can't fault any network for letting a low rated show go, but I just wish they would have a finale scripted and ready to go in case they are cancelled. For the fans of the show to get some closure. A couple of shows had a script that didn't get filmed that they released to the internet and gave some closure.
  9. Popoff never claimed to be a psychic, just a healing church guy. Sleaze bag mostly. WV Grant and Popoff were both exposed by Randi with video and audio. Both were hurt by this and were off TV for a while, but they are back on again. Some are so gullible. The gov't doesn't do anything about these charlatans I think basically because it involves religion. If people want to be fooled by fake healers, they are left to their delusions.
  10. I'm not sure about that. Those anti-Walmart zealots are almost like a cult. They would probably protest.
  11. The big-named skeptic you are talking about is James Randi, or the Amazing Randi. He was a magician at one time and spends most of his time debunking supernatural nonsense. By the way, he had a special on in the early nineties challenging all those with supernatural abilities to come on his show and prove their abilities and win a lot of money. Psychics, a divining rod type, and an astrologer were some on those on the show. Not only did no one prove their abilities. Everyone failed miserably. Sylvia Browne was the psychic who failed. Check the internet. I'm sure there is a copy around somewhere.
  12. I really like Dr. Phil, but I lost some respect for him that would have on and give any credence to JE and his phony abilities. Edward and his ilk have long been discredited, and only the gullible would believe him or any other person could actually talk to the dead. Notice they all have seemed to disappear off television. If these people are so powerful, how come no one seems to pay attention to them on a mass basis. By the way, before anyone mentions all the missing children psychics have helped find, there's one interesting fact you should know... The Bureau of Missing Children has not one case of any psychic ever finding a missing child.
  13. Not Cool...I have to agree with most. A gross raunchy, unfunny bottom of the barrel movie. The worst I have seen this year and deserves it's zero rating. I have to agree with most of the negative comments about Shane, so I won't dump on him anymore. But, it would interesting to see him direct a PG movie. It seems like to me he hides behind all the raunchiness, to hide all his insecurities. Hollidaysburg...I did like it. Miles better than its competition. I liked the look and the actors were competent. And I thought Anna did a good job directing. I'll give it a 5.5. It really is a travesty of justice that Not Cool won. I don't think the judging process was explicitly stated before the competition began and their system was bad as American Idol when competitors like Sanjaya were in the top 10.
  14. Yep, this is becoming a big movie and TV trope for a character to sacrifice many, sometimes hundreds, thousands or millions for one person. Who would do this?
  15. Well, maybe normally you would be right, but she was hiding from her father and just went to a small town and kept a low profile. And then the guy just happened. Couldn't actually do Vogue. Had to settle for the white picket fence.
  16. Wow, an old DOOL fan. That was a great plotline. Oh Nick, he was great to root for. A former DOOL actor. The real life daughter of John Clarke, who played Mickey Horton for years on Days.
  17. Well, the majority don't. It only takes a small percentage to like someone or something and it be popular or make money. Like the Kardashians, rap and country music. The majority don't like these, but they flourish. They are a percentage of teen girls that like raunchy, toilet humor. Go figure.
  18. Well, of course, they could. Certainly the one they used was incredibly flawed. Take 15 critics and let them vote. Majority is the winner. I didn't think it was that big of a mystery. No stars, no big plot or action, no advertising budget. I didn't expect either to do well. Actually, the reason for inconsistent eliminations was the multi-voting. Some would actually set up phones and dial 1000's of calls for their favorites. It made for skewed results. They should have changed, but never did because they wouldn't have been able to constantly advertise 10's of millions of votes. I quit watching because of this. Wasn't it though. One of the most disappointing things about this series. I was expecting some big celebration like AI with a big crowd and the announcement of a winner. And all we got was Shane reading an email saying he had won and Anna saying congrats. No reaction from any of the other participants. I would have liked to have seen that.
  19. For me, Shane just grew more unlikeable as the show went on and Anna became more likeable. Shane being a baby and not wanting to listen to any minute criticism by fans, or others in his circle was just so sad. I, too, did not care for Victor. He just seemed overbearing. And I really liked Lauren. How she can put up with 10-year-old Shane is beyond me. I would like to see her direct a movie. That might be interesting. Hey, Lauren vs. Victor, the Chair, Part 2.
  20. Shane cuts his hair and looks like Zachary Quinto. How ironically funny.
  21. So far, no evidence than man is contributing to climate change. I'm right and the libs are wrong, as usual.
  22. We have more trees than we did 100 years ago. And nothing is going to kill us or the Earth. And that would be that so-called global warming or climate change is a bunch of politically motivated bunk. And it's the Doctor. Yep, Danny's blasé attitude about Clara traveling the Universe with the Doctor or him actually joining them stretches credibility and pulls the show down. I think his character is a lot more boring than Clara, who I actually like. But, she has no chemistry with Danny and I have no idea why she would love him. Most of the companions on this show love travelling with the Doctor, but then at some point, it's time to move on. But, they constantly have Clara questioning what she wants to do. It gets in the way of fun adventures in the Tardis.
  23. Go home to parents or go visit strange worlds in a space ship? How many kids would choose to go home? And Danny doesn't want adventures either? Really?!? Really?!?!?
  24. Who decided that all filming would take place in the coldest months in Pittsburgh? That looked painful. At this point, I think I will like Anna's movie more. It's on On Demand as well as Shane's. When I'm done with the show, I'm going to watch both.
  25. Both Shane and Anna seem like control freaks. Not sure if they could be good directors, but I'll give them a chance. I think Anna is cute.
