| T.V. Shows |
Real Time with Bill Maher Fridays at 10:00pm - HBO |
After getting canned by ABC for his comments about 9/11 (one of the very few people to be fired because of the event), Bill Maher eventually made his way to HBO in this no-holds-barred big brother of Politically Incorrect where anything goes (and often does). |
Rome Various times - The channels of HBO |
I love ancient Rome, so a show based on that era is a surefire hit with me! Lots of violence (duh!) and sex/nekkedness (again, duh!), but I'm certainly not complaining. But yeah, basically it's about the fall of the Roman Republic and the rise of the Empire (from Julius Caesar's return from Gaul to the death of Mark Antony and Cleopatra), as well as the more important glimpse into everyday Roman life. |
Curb Your Enthusiasm Various times - The channels of HBO |
One hilarious show that follows Larry David (co-creator of Seinfeld). Larry all to often finds himself the poster-child of Murphy's Law. If it can go wrong, it does. What's worse is, more often than not, it's entirely coincidental! Believe it or not, the show has no set scripts! With only scene outlines for each show, the cast is left to improv the bulk of the show, thus creating a more real feel, which only adds to the hilarity. |
Reno 911 Sundays at 9:00pm - Comedy Central |
A parody of COPS, the show follows the deputies of the Washoe County Sheriff's Department in Reno, NV. |
Fairly Odd Parents Various times - Nickelodeon |
A cartoon that I've been turned onto by a certain Miss Rebecca! :) Basically, a 10-year-old boy named Timmy Turner has himself two fairy Godparents to grant all his wishes, but Wonda and Cosmo are a little... odd, and the wishes often reflect the fact. And of course, Cosmo's my favorite! :) |
Miami Vice Weekdays at 3:00pm - TVLand & Daily 9:00pm - Sleuth |
It's the show that's synonymous with the '80s. What more can I say? If you've ever played Grand Theft Auto: Vice City, as the name would imply, just reverse roles and you have Miami Vice! |
Mad About You Check your local listings |
A great sitcom following the lives of the (fairly) recently married Paul and Jamie Buchman. If I'm ever lucky enough to be married myself, and it's half as good as it is in this show, I'd be more than happy. |
Friends Check your local listings |
One question: Who doesn't like Friends? :) |
NewsRadio Weekdays at 11:00 am - TBS |
Can you possibly go wrong with a cast like Dave Foley, Phil Hartman, Stephen Root, Andy Dick, Maura Tierney, and Joe Rogan? Of course not! A real shame that Phil Hartman was murdered by his wife and all. His absence was a real deathblow to the show :\ |
Becker Check your local listings |
Ted Danson as a physician on New York who's just bitter all the time. Man I feel like that a lot! Also like Terry Farrell being in it. I gotta say, she's hot! And hey, she's from Iowa too (Cedar Rapids to be exact)! |
The Simpsons Sundays at 7:00pm - Fox |
It's the Simpsons... come on!!! |
MXC Fridays at 11:30pm - SpikeTV |
"What are these people running from? Their not, their running to the world's toughest competition in town!" What can I say? Does it get much better than a show where comics preform voice-overs for a Japanese extreme sports show? My vote: doubtful hehe |
Family Plots Check your local listings |
Okay, A&E sucks now for cancelling this show for those like Rollergirls! Anyway, as the disclaimer says, you may find this show both disturbing and strangely amusing. I have to admit, although I strongly feel that reality T.V. is part of the recent plummet of society (downfall began years ago... this is just adding to it), this show about a family-run mortuary is actually sort of good. It's definitely not "fake reality" like Survivor or its rivals, and it's a real family in a real life (pun very much intended) workplace. |
Ellen Check your local listings |
Ellen DeGeneres is easily one of my absolute favorite comedians, so of course here sitcom is among my favorites. Too bad the show wasn't able to survive her coming out :\ |
The Ren & Stimpy Show Sundays at 11:00pm - Nicktoons Network |
It may be crude and disgusting, but it's hilarious! Basically, Ren's a hyper chihuahua and Stimpy's a stupid cat, and the two are best friends and they live together, and all the while, they end up having some... interesting... experiences in life. |
Beauty and the Geek Check your local listings |
What can I say really? I'm a geek. Not exactly desirable to women. Lack the necessary skills in that area. This show is totally for me! Basically, this group of really geeky guys and this group of gorgeous (but not so smart) women are paired off into teams and the idea is they teach each other stuff (guys teach the girls intellectual things, while the girls teach the guys social stuff). |
| Movies |
| Star Wars |
Duh! If you don't know what SW is you should be shot! hehe Of course, the original trilogy is far better than the prequels, but you can't forget the made-for-TV Ewok Adventures! If you haven't seen them, apparently they're now on DVD together for like $10, so no harm picking it up. Of course, Caravan of Courage is easily the better of the two (and the duology should have probably ended with it as well hehe). |
| Spaceballs |
How can anyone be a fan of SW (or Sci-fi in general) and not be a fan of Spaceballs?! Now, I'm sure I know what you're thinking, but I swear, the next person to say to me "May the Schwartz be with you" or "I see your Schwartz is as big as mine" is going to get a killing in the face! You have no idea how many times I got that growing up! |
| Tomb Raider |
Take a kick ass game and make it into a movie starring Angelina Jolie; how can you possibly go wrong with a combo like that?! |
| Indiana Jones |
Let's see. Harrison Ford: check, archeology: check, Nazis: check. Again, how can you go wrong with all that going for it? |
| Field of Dreams |
"Is this heaven?" "No, it's Iowa." A great baseball movie about a farmer (played by Kevin Costner) in northeast Iowa who builds a baseball diamond in the middle of his cornfield. And hey, I've even traveled past the field once when my Boy Scout troop went to a summer camp in the area. Also gotta love how at the end Ray's daughter comments on how people will go to vacation in Iowa City, "and think it's really boring." hehe |
| Ferris Bueller's Day Off |
As much as I enjoyed high school (for the most part I enjoyed going to class... hated the people), this is still a great movie. |
| WarGames |
It may be a bit outdated in the technology department, but what do you expect from a movie over twenty years old? Anyway... shall we play a game?</Joshua> |
| Die Hard |
Specifically Die Hard with a Vengance! I don't know... they're just cool. Stupid pansy-ass people that are too damn sensitive who get offended by any movie featuring terrorism of any type (which is a great plot for an action movie!!!). |
| Jurassic Park |
"Dr. Grant, my dear Dr. Sattler. Welcome to Jurassic Park." What can I say? I always loved dinosaurs growing up, and there was a time I wanted to be a paleontologist, and could name dozens upon dozens of species by sight. As cheezy as the plot could have been, I'd say it turned out to be a pretty sweet movie! |
| Scarface |
What can I say? It's a classic! Now, I'm not a huge fan of action movies (for the most part), nor do I condone the use of illicit drugs, but I still like this movie. After all, that's not what Scarface is about! It's about the rise and fall of a "modern" American gangster (although hehe gangs/gangster movies aren't exactly my favorite either... go figure). |
| Games |
Who doesn't like to play games? Well, here are some of my favorite computer/console games. |
| Tomb Raider |
Kinda like Indiana Jones, but with a chick, and set in a more modern day! |
Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic & Knights of the Old Republic II: The Sith Lords |
It's Star Wars! Come On! Besides, it takes place 4,000 years before the movies, so there are some cool differences between the two eras. Of course, KotOR II in many regards isn't as good as the original (mostly due to it's literally incomplete state (there are elements in the game that obviously lead to areas that weren't included in the final release of the game)), it's still not bad, as well as having a number of improvements over the original (more lightsaber colors to choose from, as well as more components to them as well). If you like KotOR, definitely worth at least checking out. |
Civilization III & Civilization IV |
Two very cool games! Turn-based strategy games where you build an empire and have to interact with others (although sometimes it's just easier to wipe them from the face of the planet though hehe). |
The Sims & The Sims 2 |
If you have to ask... uhh... no hehe. And for those with TS2, I have to recommend all of the expansion packs (University, Nightlife, Open for Business, and Pets)! Consider them must-haves for the game! The stuff packs though, aren't as necessary from what I hear from Rebecca (all I have is Glamour Life, but I'm loving that one!) |
| Grand Theft Auto: Vice City |
Unnecessarily crude? Overly violent? Yes, well, of course. But you can't go wrong with a game based off of both Miami Vice and Scarface! For those who are familiar with the game, and those old enough to remember the simpler days of video gaming, the Degenetron, advertised in VC, can now be played online!!! Just click here. |
| Splinter Cell |
One kick-ass game of the stealth genre (but what else would you expect from one of the games from Tom Clancey?)! Basically you get to... neutralize... terrorists as you crisscross the globe. The game is more about getting past the enemy without being detected than killing them. In fact, there are a number of missions where you can't kill anyone! |
