Diary of a TV Junkie
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…
Friends: The Complete Series (1994 – 2004) May 2nd – €53.20 (CA$84.99) @ Amazon.ca (paid partially via gift certificate) Collection no. 12686 – 12705 But I’m a bit disappointed. It’s really my fault because I didn’t check this beforehand (I just didn’t expect it): It’s only the broadcast version. As someone who knows the key…
I used to love Chuck Lorre shows. I loved them back in the days of the first few seasons of Two and a Half Men and The Big Bang Theory and even the beginning of Mike & Molly. But now? Not so much. But let me break this down by series. Two and a Half…
In recent months Amazon has become quite a controversial topic in Germany. It all started with an “undercover” documentation for one of our TV stations. I watched the docu online after everyone and their dog wrote about it and the first “Boycott!” outcries were made. I don’t know if what the docu claimed was actually…
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)….
Deutsche Version | CW 13-17 | CW 13-19 Chuck 3×15 Chuck versus the Role Models Again, I’ve enjoyed this episode very much. Loved the tiger even without Mike Tyson. I also liked the hint to an oncoming arc in the end. I strongly suspect that the Chuck gang and the Awesome family will soon cross…
Deutsche Version | CW 46-50 | CW 01-02 How I Met Your Mother 5×11 Last Cigarette Ever I am soo glad I never started smoking… It was an OK episode but except for the “time travel” nothing noteworthy happened. The Big Bang Theory 3×11 The Maternal Congruence That was a great episode, Leonard’s mother (Diane…
Deutsche Version Since everybody seems to be starting to count at zero instead of one the first decade of this century and millennium is now over. So it’s time to recap these past ten years and take a look at the TV Shows it has given us. Let me give my résumé at the beginning:…
Deutsche Version | CW 45 | CW 40-47 The Good Wife 1×06 Conjugal I love the unusual (and yet serious) way how they solve their cases and I like how they often find a way to involve Alicia’s husband in the case even when she has to sacrifice his reputation in the end. Two and…
Deutsche Version | Part 7 | Part 9 True Blood What’s the show about? Based upon the “Sookie Stackhouse” book series by Charlaine Harris. Sookie is a waitress in Bon Temps, Louisiana and she can read minds. She’s fallen in love with a Vampire who has been around since the Civil War. The Vampires have…
