Eureka (2006)
It starts out amazing ....
With first episode this show will have you hooked easily, the character development and interaction is superb and the work done by the cast is excellent. Eureka is a perfect tounge in cheek satire on what some people find to be scary, the dangers and potentially cataclysmic outcomes of scientific research unchecked, but they always manage to save the day with the towns only non genius character and one of the primary stars of the show. This show has a fantastic continuity in that each show "remembers" the previous ones in that they all play of each other .... and that is where the show runs to ground with an obsessive continuation of one plot, they fixate on a super secret cabal network that's obsessed with taking control of all the scientists and the town as a whole. This idea began as early as season one and at that point it was nothing more than a background idea and becomes an annoying primary story drive to the point that by season five the shaw was almost painful to watch and by the final episode you get a sense of "thank GOD it's finally over", and that, for me was painful to feel after enjoying the show so much. The only good thing about the end of the show was that they at least did get series finale episode so that it didn't fall in the cracks as do many canceled shows have done and leave you hanging.
Mean Girls (2024)
Why? .... Just ... Why?
The original Mean Girls was good for a chuckle at best and the story I'll admit was kind of fresh, but with that said there is no reason or need to do a reboot of an, at best, mediocre film. The movie is basically a carbon copy of the original save for the pointless and unnecessary singing. This is simply a sad attempt to placate the youth so they don't have to go search for or look up anything while cramming the entire gambit of "liberal diversity" down everyone's throats. The characters are the same, the story is the exact same, the point or "lesson" is identical, which begs the question.... Why? .... Just .. why??
Almost Paradise (2020)
Spencer in Philippines?
Let me start off with clarity.... I love the show and I love Christian Kane, but when you feel a person is perfect at a role you see them as that character in EVERYTHING THEY DO!! Lol, my first encount with Kane was with Leverage which I'm slightly obsessed with that show, his portrayal of Spencer is so awesome that I see this as a version of "If Eliot Spencer didn't join Leverage Inc." ... I keep waiting for Alex Walker to point out that something "has a very distinct sound" or haircut, boots or something to that effect that Spencer always did, lol ... But bottom line, amazing show, scenery, cast, and story line, season 3 pleaseeee.
The Tenant (2010)
Is it horror ... or just horrible?
I will keep this short and simple, this movie is one of, if not THE worst movie I have seen in the past 15 years. The acting is on par an elementary school production, the special effects are pathetic, and the dialog is even worse. No attention to details, not sure if this really counts as a spoiler or not but its merely and example of the lack of attention to detail. The fist portion of the film takes place 28 years prior to the latter portion, yet a nurse who appears to be in her mid 30's and the doctor who looks to be early 50's look EXACTLY the same 28 years later, lol. I know I said I would keep is short, but when writing about something as pathetic as this film one tends to ramble on as just a few words can not express the horrendous outcome of the end result.
