Totally Spies! - The Suavest Spy

I'm new to this show, so don't laugh!

No laughter coming off of my lips. The show is pretty bland to me but I find myself watching it never the less, possibly due to the anime like style of drawing or if you want a down and dirty reason, it'd be the very very cute girls 8-).

But seriously, the show isn't half bad but far from what I would call amazing.

The last TV show I watched was an ACTUAL anime: Tenchi Muyo!

Night Gallery

I finally watched a couple episodes of this series earlier today, having been curious to see it for a while. I?d read a lot about it, and the general consensus seems to be that it?s good, but not nearly as good as Rod Serling?s previous and better-known brain-child the Twilight Zone (of which I am a fan), chiefly because it was far more interested in frightening the audience than in telling haunting stories about human nature. And while I did feel that it was lacking a lot of the charm and subtext which made the TZ so great, I still found the various stories to be very entertaining. Dead Man, Room with a View and the Little Black Bag were all very interesting. The Cemetary was a generic horror yarn with a pretty daft conclusion, but I had to love it anyway.

Oy, that Nature of the Enemy story, though...I'm still not sure quite what to make of the ending: :P

Spoiler Below

I'd watch it for the reasons stated above.

The last show I watched was Get Smart - Our Man in Leotards. It was funny seeing Maxwell Smart paralyzing people when he forgot that he had the ring on him!! 8D

Mr. Show on TBS.

I nearly died laughing at the skit featuring the grocery stores' commercials 8D

Original Dirty Pair on DVD

Been trying to jack myself into anime more, haven't been as "into it" as I should be considering how much of it I got. Really good series actually, really good.

Thank God You're Here (Original Australian Version) on DVD.

One of the funniest shows to come from Australia! Frank Woodley as the Shaolin Monk was hilarious!!

Sailor Moon, the live-action version, on DVD. Specifically, the episode where Sailor Jupiter was introduced. The special effects are nowhere near as good as what Hollywood might produce, and the subtitles are a little hard to follow, but it's a good show nonetheless. :)

I remember when Hollywood actually was going to do Sailor Moon. Not just a bullet we dodged. Not just a bullet.

I heard that show is supposedly so bad it's hilarious. Like Luna the cat is operated by a cheap puppet, not to bash the show if you like it but that's just what I've heard.

Oh, and the last Tv show I watched was "The Office" it was about safety measures. 8D This show gets better and better and better. Kudos to Steve Carrell I hope he NEVER leaves.

Luna is a plushie. I think they move it by poking it with sticks. The monsters are just guys in rubber suits, much like in the old Godzilla movies, but not as talented. The show focuses more on the relationships between the Sailor Scouts than it does on action or adventure, and undoubtably a lot is lost in translation, so yeah, technically I'd classify it as pretty bad. Despite that it's still quite enjoyable, provided you don't expect it to be anything like the anime.

I picked up the complete live disk set on eBay; I don't recall what I paid for it, but it wasn't a bad price.

At least the actresses wear wigs. For no adequately explored reason, a lot of Japanese cosplayers (and American ones, really) don't wear wigs or do anything to their hair when they're in costume. Which is pretty noticeable if you've got black hair and your character's is bubblegum pink.

To be on topic, last night I finally caught one of the new South Park episodes. Mr(s). Garrison.... is.... I just... I'm so confused.

Last nights Survior.

A one hour episode of Danny Phantom called "Reality Trip."

last nights SNL, starring shia lebuff

funny stuff

Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy:

"Keeper of the Reaper"

Best Billy/Mandy episode I ever saw, and also the funniest. Fredburger alone is worth the watch, not to mention that catchy little song Billy and Mandy sang.

Tim and Eric Awesome Show: Great Job on Adult Swim.

I am pathetic, I know. But I'm willing to be pathetic if it means being able to experience the utter awesomeness that is John C. Reilly's brilliant performance as Dr. Steve Brule.











...for your health.

Let's be pathetic together. Unfortunately I've only seen the first two episodes since I have no idea when it's on. I liked Eric's gift of the uneatable hot dog in the second one.

"I'm no Superman"...because I'm Batman!
 

Well, I've been addicted to Scrubs, and have burned through all six seasons of it in a unhelathily short space of time, meaning I now have to wait for each episode to air before I can watch it, like some common peon. ::) Still, it remains darn compulsive stuff; the last episode that aired "My Long Goodbye", was particularly moving. I'm sure anyone who saw it knows what I mean...

Also, I'm currently working my way through Season One of Batman: The Animated Series. I don't know what I can say about this show that hasn't been said over the last fifteen years, but as far as I'm concerend this is the definitive incarnation of Batman, with absolutely perfect visuals, design, music, acting...well, everything, really. :) Standout episodes I've watched recently include "Two-Face" (the forthcoming Batman movies are going to have a hell of a job lving up to this portrayal of the Harvey Dent story), "Beware The Gray Ghost" (featuring a great performance from...Adam West?! :wiltshock:) and "Feat of Clay" (Ron Perlman's Clayface is just wonderful to look at and listen to). Anyone with even the remotest interest in Batman be made to watch these by law, as should any fans of mature, intelligent animation. :frankiesmile:

Just finished watching "Canadas Worst Handyman 2". 8D

Roseanne - The episode where she had a breast reduction.:wiltshock:

Episodes 13-18 of 24. TV's greatest thrill ride continues. 8-)

Heh heh heh, I am right now partway through Hockey Night in Canada, to see if my home town team the Ottawa Senators can take a three to one lead in the best of seven series against the Pittsburg Penguins.

Ben 10

The show has just premiered in Australia, and so far, I'm really enjoying it.

It's a really good show actually. The first season kinda lacks a bit with some cheap dialouge and predictability, but the show really gets better as it progresses and now it's my favorite CN show alongside Foster's.

The fact that Alex Winters is doing the live-action Ben 10 movie is for lack of better words, totally radical!

I'm just worried that it sounds kind of rushed, I mean a live Ben 10 in December 2007? That seems awfully quick.

I'm worried this may either be a rumor or a bad sign of things to come because I really think this is a project that should be handled with care and not rushed.

Also, last TV show I watched was "The Journal" from TMNT Fast Forward on Demand.

Ned's Declassifed School Survival Guide

I was bored. I felt like ripping my brain out of my head and flushing it down the toilet. (No offense fans.)

Not as rushed as you may think, actually. TV movies are easier to get in the can than theatrical blockbusters. In fact even those can be done rather quickly too. It's the calendar watching and looking for prime rating and maximum profits that usually decides the release dates.

Though I will admit, there are quite a few movies that have suffered from being rushed. But once again this is a TV movie, being released in December, they have plenty of time.

Invader Zim: "The Frycook of doom"

I'm so glad Nicktoons shows this show in repeats because it is a funny ass show and I'm glad I finally got the chance to see what I've been missing.

Btw, Gir kicks ASS!

Sherman's March, on the History Channel, a documentary about a great general who truly cared about the men under his command and helped bring to a close of of the saddest chapters in American history. Very moving. :)

Go to "Scarymonkeyshow.com" it has most of the scripts for the canceled episodes. All of them are funny. :D

Holy controversial re-imagining, Batman!
 

Phew...I've just come to the end of a crazy ten days or so that saw me blast through all 50 currently aired episodes of WB's recent The Batman show far faster than was probably good for me, and overall...I really like it. :D

Let's make no pretences; it was a show that had a lot to prove, due to the inevitable comparisons to the earlier classic Batman: The Animated Series, and quite frankly, it got off to a poor start with a really patchy first season that seemed to forsake characterisation and dynamic plotting for OTT gadgets, ninja overkill and rank puns. It always had a few things going for it; it looks gorgeous, with brilliantly stylish action sequences and really strikingly original designs, and had a great, moody theme song from U2's The Edge, but it seemed like it was going to be a creature of pure style over substance, and not a show that was really worth my while.

However, with the finale of Season One, a two-parter that introduced their original and tragic take on Clayface, the show demonstarted for the first time that it could have brains too, laying the foundation for a vastly improved second season (the creepy Goth-esque Riddler and the return of Clayface being the highlights). Season Three dipped somewhat, I must say; Batgirl's addition livened up the first few episodes, but they seemed to run out of steam a little, and Batgirl's sassy teen schtick amused me at times but annoyed me at others. Season Four, on the other hand, is killer; for some reason, Robin's addition ties the whole thing togther perfectly, and there are some brilliant stories in this latest batch, particularly their origin stories for Robin, Riddler and of course Harley Quinn. :frankiesmile:

I've really enjoyed watching this series progress; it always had potential beneath its flaws, and watching that potential realise itself over four seasons has been very gratifying. I know a lot of people wrote it off after its shaky start; I would really recommend they give it another go, because it's really come on in leaps and bounds to become a great show in its own right. I look forward to the two-part Season Four finale on April 28th and May 5th almost as much as the new Foster's. :bloocross:

I've always found "The Batman" to be a truly under appreciated show. It's obvious that comparions are naturally going to be made with the first show, but I stopped doing that a long time ago because I have always and I WILL always consider these shows to be 2 completely different animals.

They do things differently and there's nothing wrong with that. I actually enjoyed the new Batgirl alot more then the old one, even though this one did piss me off a few times. And as much as I loved the old Joker, I find myself loving the new one as well just because it's a whole new take on the clown.

I think this new Joker's look definitely envokes a stronger sense of "madness" then the old one. I also love the new Penguin as opposed to the old one who I found to be a drab villain and hardly a formidable one at that. The Batman show has also in my eyes, improved on certain things the old Batman show failed at.

Such instances include Robin's family (this was done MUCH better), Clayface, The Riddler's origins, Firefly, Maxie Zeus, and especially Bane. I think Bane was ruined in both the film version and the original animated series, so it was nice to see the new show get him done correctly and properly.

I dunno. I still prefer the original animated series' origins for Clayface and Riddler. I don't really like this new Riddler at all. I guess because I really liked the episode, If You're So Smart Why Aren't You Rich. And the Clayface although awesome in the way they've twisted on it still has nothing on the episode Feat Of Clay. That was just so great.

I've never wanted Penguin to be that formidable. Well at least not the way they present him. The concept of a polar opposite of Bruce Wayne is pretty cool, but where did the martial arts angle come from?

The Jokers are almost on the same level. I think Hamill's Joker certainly got his madness across in such eps as Mad Love, Christmas with the Joker, Joker's Favor, and who can forget Batman Beyond: Return of the Joker. Not only that Hamill's voice is the definitive portrayl of the character. The fact that KMR uses shades of that supports this in my opinion.

I do agree with the Firefly thing though and Bane, seeing as they were treated as throwaway characters almost in the later iteration of the old series, The New Batman/Superman Adventures. In fact Firefly was the B-plot to an anthology episode, Legends of the Bat, which if you may remember was the first time they did the whole Frank Miller DKR thing on screen.

Batgirl is much more fun too, but I get a little too many Jade Chan vibes from her.

As for other villains, Mr Freeze doesn't seem anywhere near as threatening as the one from the last series. But the new Clock King rules, too bad we won't be seeing him again. I'm hoping they develop the other side of Catwoman, because she's more than just a woman in a cat suit that likes cat things. I commend them for including Basil Karlo, Clayface I, in the show, as well as a villain everyone thought would be impossible to transfer, Black Mask.

But overall through all my rambling I must say that this new version is quite underappreciated. It's a great show. Worthy of the greatest Elseworlds title, heck it could even be part of the original multiverse it's that decent. Now here's hoping Legion of Superheroes can find it's footing in its next season.

Last TV show I watched was Spicks and Specks. Adam Hills never surprises to amuse me! :bloogrin:

P.S. I like your quote, Mr. Marshmallow. Funny!

I still prefer the old Riddler too, I never stopped loving his brilliant character design and his even more brillaint voice actor, John Glover. I found the new Riddler look to be very creepy and a much more "evil" looking then the old one. There is one thing I do like about the new Riddler over the old one.

The origins, and that's simply because the old one re-used a tired old cliche of having an angry boss being the reason he went mad. They already did it with Mr. Freeze, Clock King, Baby Doll and etc and I found Riddler's new origins to be much more interesting and more dramatic.

Now, I'll never get over the fact i love Clayface, the old one is one of the baddest ass Batman villains ever. But the fact they actually turned a main character, Bruce's best friend into the new Clayface....that to me is just a stroke of genius. Plus it really helped work in Karlo becoming Clayface II.

Penguin was given fighting skills to make him capable of fighting back. I really did find the fact he never got in Batman's face even a LITTLE in the old series to be boring, and his episodes weren't that exciting. This one at least makes him interact more plus he really makes good use of his umbrella weapons.

Something I am very glad they did. Mr. Freeze was never intended to be better then the old one, the creators said in an interview that they were never going to touch their fine work in the past anyway. The one thing I do like is that this Freeze is actually CAUSING the ice to shoot out.

He became a real meta-human, something Batman doesn't have alot of. This Freeze actually generates the ice from his own body where as the old one simply used his suit to contain his cold temperature. I still love the old Freeze, but I just thought this was a neat idea.

I too hope Catwoman gets used more, I didn't like her old gray outfit too much but I think there doing a good job making her remain a thief then mixing her into good guy territory. I also think they did a good job improving Man-Bat, I LOVE his new "white" appearance, very creepy and evil looking.

I really enjoy this series and I always enjoy talking about it, and I always say that anyone who doubts the series should watch "Batman vs. Dracula", because that is one hell of a good DC flick.

P.S.

Thanks Frankie fan ^^

Clock King wasn't an angry boss. Hamilton Hill wasn't Temple Fugate's boss at all. Temple Fugate became unwound, pun intended, because he couldn't handle making mistakes so he blamed someone else. He was actually a formidable adversary for Batman, but I can see why he wasn't used too often. I mean spontaneity is his weakness, that would get real boring real fast. I still say Time Out Of Joint is a fantastic episode and has one of the best themes ever composed for an animated series.

Riddler's Revenge, I'm actually on the fence with that ep. Even though it was wrong for his partner to do what she did, in reality she had good reason, she just made the wrong choice. Nygma really was a psycho waiting to happen and shades of it were already showing up prior to his downfall. I'm not excusing her at all, I'm just saying that what led to her actions was quite believable and something I can imagine many people in the same situation doing.

I wonder if they'll ever do a Mud Pack episode with the Clayfaces? Or if they'll include Clayface III. Even though that particular Clayface is pretty frightening, melting people into protoplasm to ease his pain. Though as far as deaths go, is a lot more kid-friendly than laughing yourself to death as has been depicted in the previous series.

I can understand Penguin being given fighting skills, especially based on what you said. Even though I actually liked his eps in the old series. But did they have to go back to the deformed Cobblepot instead of the refined billionaire with an odd love of birds? I mean this show was made in anticipation of the Nolan film, so I was expecting something that tried to get away from Burtonian influence.

Still, I feel you on the angry boss thing. The thing that elevated that cliche was the great writing, and the fact that it was heads and shoulders above the horrible cliche of love conquers all in Spider-Man. Though that was a good show too, that cliche really wore on me, even as a kid.

Another thing I have to commend them on is their brilliant use of Doctor Hugo Strange. He was only used once in the original series, but here he's been used in a way that's just great. Also bringing in Charaxes but bypassing the whole giving up his soul thing. He isn't full on Charaxes, lacking the bloodthirst of Killer Moth/Charaxes in the comics, but it is a kid's show.

Looking at a recent episode of The Batman, I wonder when the Joker shoots Barbara Gordon.
