When you think about the “classic” TV shows, it’s puzzling how many of them didn’t air too long. The original Battlestar Galactica only ran for one season. So did The Honeymooners, even though it broadcast 39 episodes. The original Star Trek ran for just three seasons. According to Jim ran for eight seasons. Think aboutContinue reading “‘M*A*S*H’ Said Goodbye In A Broadcast That’ll Probably Never Happen Again”

Calls For “National Divorce” Dangerous In More Ways Than We Realize
For the most part, people I know who still live in northwest Georgia say they don’t care much of what Marjoie Taylor Greene says. This is foolish to do so. They should care. They should care a lot especially since I know they still voted for her regardless. Right now, the rest of the country,Continue reading “Calls For “National Divorce” Dangerous In More Ways Than We Realize”
‘Blazing Saddles’ Would Still Work Today If Done The Right Way
Those who always want to blame “wokeness” and “cancel culture” for not being able to tell racist, sexist, bigoted, homophobic or just tasteless jokes don’t realize that the people around them probably weren’t laughing much to begin with. It’s easy to feign a laugh in a crowded room when you don’t want to be theContinue reading “‘Blazing Saddles’ Would Still Work Today If Done The Right Way”
‘Valentine’s Bluff’ Is A Fanfilm Without The Heart And Soul Of Original
A movie like Valentine’s Bluff is a fanfilm of the original My Bloody Valentine, so it should look bad, right? Well, no. Many people have made homages to their favorite movies and they looked somewhat decent. Valinetine’s Bluff is intended as an unofficial sequel to Valentine, but it looks more like a porno without theContinue reading “‘Valentine’s Bluff’ Is A Fanfilm Without The Heart And Soul Of Original”
How ‘The Silence Of The Lambs’ Saved Horror And Shook Up The Oscars
By the time The Silence of the Lambs hit theaters in mid-February of 1991, horror movies had pretty much been reduced to the bottom of the barrel. Thanks to the, for lack of a better word, overkill of slasher movies in the 1980s, it seemed most horror movies were just pure schlock. They would featureContinue reading “How ‘The Silence Of The Lambs’ Saved Horror And Shook Up The Oscars”
How ‘Amadeus’ Turned A Risky Gamble Into An Oscar-Winning Blockbuster
By 1984, pop culture had exploded in ways that had never been seen before. John Hughes had made Sixteen Candles, a very dated but breakthrough comedy that would represent a generation. MTV was three years old and as popular as ever. Saturday morning cartoons were competing for young minds. And Madison Avenue was selling everythingContinue reading “How ‘Amadeus’ Turned A Risky Gamble Into An Oscar-Winning Blockbuster”
‘Spoiler Alert’ A Gay Romantic Drama That Finally Plays It Straight
The irony of a movie like Spoiler Alert is that Hollywood movies that seemed to tackle real relationships of the LGBTQIA community and don’t exploit them for comedy often end sadly. Movies like Philadelphia, Longtime Companion, Jeffrey, and Chantilly Lace, to name a few, all had some character’s death associated with it. Why is HollywoodContinue reading “‘Spoiler Alert’ A Gay Romantic Drama That Finally Plays It Straight”
‘Amerika’ Over 14 Hours Of Right-Wing Propaganda Signifying Nothing
I guess it was the Soviet Unions invasion of Afghanistan, the overflow of the 1970s political turmoila paranoia along with the fact that Ronald Reagan was elected President that many filmmakers felt the Soviet Union would one day destroy America. It was highly reflected in the entertainment of the era even though when Stalin andContinue reading “‘Amerika’ Over 14 Hours Of Right-Wing Propaganda Signifying Nothing”
Documentaries Expose The Sex Cult Led By Lawrence Ray In Shocking Details
Trigger Warning: This post contains references to sexual assault and domestic abuse. Calling Lawrence Ray a cult leader might not seem appropriate for some. He wasn’t Jim Jones nor David Koresh in the number of his followers. But that may be how he was able to fly under the radar for so many years. ForContinue reading “Documentaries Expose The Sex Cult Led By Lawrence Ray In Shocking Details”
Hey, Conservatives, Chelsea Handler’s ‘Daily Show’ Skit Was A Parody
The fact that Greg Gutfeld is what passes nowadays for conservative comedy, it should come as no surprise that many didn’t get the joke from a recent Daily Show skit by guest-host Chelsea Handler. I mean, Gutfeld looks like the type of guy who knows what decibel level to tell in a crowded room toContinue reading “Hey, Conservatives, Chelsea Handler’s ‘Daily Show’ Skit Was A Parody”
