A Bit Unhappy About 2018’s Calendars

For quite a number of years now I have had television and movie-themed calendars on my walls. Mostly about TV shows I enjoyed at the time or used to enjoy. Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Battlestar Galactica, Smallville. Here’s a small sample of calendars that I had over the years: 2011: 2014: 2016: 2017: I always…

TV Junkie: A History

I watched a lot of TV shows over the years. And when I say a lot, I mean A LOT. And I watched accross the board. Keep in mind that I’m only 35 years old. I watched The Guiding Light for two years straight (it’s a soap opera whose German title was the Springfield Story)….

TV Season 2010/2011 Diary #8

Better With You 1×01 / 1×02 Pilot / Better with Firehouse I watched the first two episodes but I don’t really get it. I think it has to do with the fact that I don’t see the irony in not being married and why that’s supposed to be a source for humour. What also doesn’t…

TV Season 2010/2011 Diary #7

Life Unexpected 2×02 Parents Unemployed I hope that the Paige story goes somewhere and isn’t just swept under the rug. I have to admit I nearly didn’t recognize Emma “Anyanka” Caulfield but then it made *click*. Good to see her again, it has been a while. Though I must say the whole firing Cate story…

TV Season 2009/2010 Diary, CW 12

Deutsche Version | CW 08-11 | CW 13 Gossip Girl 3×15 The Sixteen Year Old Virgin Ah, curse your sudden but inevitable betrayal! Sometimes things are very predictable. OK, I did not see Chuck’s mom in league with Jack but since she is an adult, she wasn’t to be trusted in the first place… But…

TV Season 2009/2010 Diary, CW 02-04

Deutsche Version | CW 01-02 | CW 04 Human Target 1×01 Pilot The pilot episode certainly looked interesting. The action was well balanced above realistic and below unrealistic. It looks like as if it’s going to be Die Hard or Lethal Weapon in a series format and I certainly will watch more episodes of it….
