Z Nation (2014)
I love this show!
It is full of action and is very fast paced but with very relatable characters. It actually reminds me more of a comic book based show than Walking Dead does, but Z Nation is very different and I like it almost as much! I have become very attached to the characters even though I know that is a fools errand. I am shocked at the rating on IMDb! If you haven't watched all the episodes you shouldn't vote. It throws the accuracy of the rating way off. It is definitely my second favorite show on television with Walking Dead my favorite by a slim margin. I fear this show is being judged before it is given a fair chance and see that it is going to be given a bum steer just like Firefly and yes, the original Star Trek. I guarantee that this is going to become a cult classic! Long live Citizen Z and Z Nation!
Only Fools and Horses (1981)
Best British Comedy Ever!!
This is a remarkable body of work and I am so glad that I took the chance and bought it! It started in 1981 and ended in 2003, but unlike American series it didn't drown the watcher and the last three episodes were a year apart! There was even one 3 year gap between 1993 and 1996 and one 5 year gap between 1996 and 2001 before they took up the series again. Never have I seen such continuity in story lines. It is amazing to me that the same actors kept coming back year after year to create this wonderful body of work. It deserved every award and accolade it ever got and those were many.
The first few seasons were half hour comedies and are hilarious, but you soon get to know these characters and become emotionally invested in their stories especially when they expand to full hour shows. By season 4 I was not just laughing, but crying. "Only Fools and Horses" succeeded in being both hilarious and extremely endearing. We are so lucky that we get to watch their stories unfold completely without having to wait 22 years. Best of all it answers the big questions and ties it all together by the final episodes. I can't imagine how invested people must have been who waited 22 years to get their answers. I know not everyone will like this series. My husband didn't like "To Hull and Back" and I do admit I didn't care much for "Miami Twice", but even these offerings are worth watching for the comedy and irony. A great show well worth your money and your time. This is indeed the best Brit-com ever made!!!
Serious Moonlight (2009)
It made me laugh!
With so much crap being made today I am happy with the movie and actually watched it twice. I LOVE seeing a man duck taped to a toilet! I love comedies where the wife gets revenge on the cheating husband! There just aren't enough of those made. I can actually think of only one other one, "First Wives Club".
The movie made me laugh and although it is a far cry from being a great movie it is better than most of the current stuff.
Wow, I have to make this longer! Okay, I see that a lot of people aren't sure about the ending so I turned on the commentary and although they acknowledge that there are several different opinions on what the ending means, they still don't tell us their intent. I guess it is up to us to decide.
