What I Watched This Week

So... this is a little bit weirder of a post, but I figured I would do it anyway... Its kind of like This Week In TV, but it will include things I'm catching up on, what I'm watching on Netflix, movies and things like that. Sometimes I start watching the same shows over and over and they aren't necessarily new shows, but I feel the need to talk about them... so I figured here is a catch all where I can just talk about everything!

So right after my things I want to watch on Netflix post, I watched a lot more of Comedy Bang Bang the TV Show. I love the podcast and I really like the TV show too, but I hardly ever watch it because its on IFC I always forget when its on and stuff. And I was watching it on Netflix but then I stopped cause I got busy. That's been really good and really funny.

Also somehow in all this Comedy Bang Bang watching and listening too... I got a crush on Andy Daily... which is weird? Lol I already did a MCM about him, so I won't get too much into it, but I've started watching Review with Forest McNeal again... I've finished watching this show, its in my 2014 favorites... it is one of the funniest shows on tv right now, I cannot wait for it to come back. Its really good and I just can't get enough of it. Lol.

I also watched a few episodes of An Idiot Abroad. This is a really funny show with Stephen Merchant, Ricky Gervais and Carl Pelkington and they send Carl to all these places like India, Jordan and China that they know he won't like because he's an idiot lol. He complains about a lot of the weird customs and it kind of gives you the negative perspective of a lot of these gorgeous countries and landmarks that you may want to visit. Its good to watch if you want to travel and can't afford it cause... you might not want to go there as much after you see some of the stuff. This is on Netflix, while it was on television (I watched the first few episodes on tv) they censored some of the language and nudity... in this they do not. Be warned that there is a lot of full frontal nudity in the 2nd episode. Its all very graphic, there are definitely some things they do with their bodies that look painful and you might not want to watch... lol thats all I can say about the second episode. There are also some cuisines they eat that you may not want to speculate as to what it is. Really funny show, but not for kids or for the faint of heart. Just so you know.

On a different note, a show that is great for kids and for adults alike is Even Stevens! I either just posted a Throwback Thursday on this or I will post one on it, but it is a really funny show. I used to watch it on Saturday Mornings and my parents and grandfather used to think it was funny to. It still totally holds up. I think its actually more funny now. Much like Rugrats, I really think I like it more as a grown up.

Started rewatching some episodes of Broad City... It's such a funny show. I wasn't in love with the first episode when I first saw it... Like when it first debuted and then I watched it again and the show is just super funny and it's another one I feel like I can watch over and over and it's still really funny and good.

And Bevers is so funny on the show, and I love him in Marry Me, which I've been catching up on this week. Really I was only behind a couple episodes, but its a good show and I'm really excited to see Nia Vardalos's upcoming episodes.Ken Marino and Casey Wilson are sooo good together. They're super cute and funny. And the whole cast just works well together. Tim Meadows is on it too... its just really funny. Plus it makes me happy that Casey Wilson married David Caspe, who created this show and Happy Endings. They lived on the same street in New York years apart before they met. That's kind of cool!

I've also watched a few shows currently on tv that came back this week. I watched most of this week's episode of The Middle, I watched American Horror Story... which was awesome! NPH does a fantastic job as a really creepy character, I think thats where he shines. I'm really interested in where this season is going now... its not my favorite, I'm feeling like its getting a bit boring, but this episode was good. I've watched @ Midnight, which is weirdly on at 11:30 for the next couple weeks before Larry Willmore's show comes on, and I forgot to watch it Thursday, and they've had some really good guests on this week. Paul F. Tompkins, Andy Daily, Nikki Glaser, Ron Funchs, Scott Auckerman, Paul Scheer... lots of funny people. It was a good week. Rugrats and Hey Arnold I've watched. I like it.

And that is it... I've been meaning to watch Camp Takota all week... but I haven't yet. I will! I promise!

Byeee!

Scribbles about TV: Jane The Virgin Review!

This I think is a surprise hit, so of corse I needed to watch it for myself to see! It's been getting a lot of critical buzz because it has been reviewed as "one of the best pilots of the season" and I also have been hearing a few critics saying that they don't think it will last because the word "virgin" is in the title... which is stupid. There is nothing wrong with being a virgin and if a show is good, its good and people should watch it... plus this did bring pretty high ratings for The CW so the critics that said that can suck it! Lol. Overall I really liked this show. One thing thats been bothering me a lot about the new Fall shows is that the characters aren't interesting enough. Especially the female characters. I thought that this showed a lot of really strong female characters that were interesting. This had a pretty big cast with A LOT of stuff going on for a pilot and most of the characters were female. That is a powerful thing to see on TV...

Scribbles About TV: Jane The Virgin Finale Review (SPOILERS)

So.... Can we talk about all the twists because there were a lot! I didn't even see all of them coming! Alrighty we start out in typical Jane The Virgin Mode with Jane's choice between Raphael and Michael... I'd be okay with either but I think I'm team Michael. Jane has a weird moment with Raphael and thinks she's better off without him and just having him be the father of her child. She's also starting to have some feelings for Michael again. Then she almost has the baby on the bus and some woman helps her and gets the bus driver to take her to the hospital. Rogellio and Xo are in Vegas and they get drunk and can't remember what happens, but they make it just in time to see Jane deliver a baby boy. I knew it would be a boy! Lets pause on that a little and go to Michael and his ex partner/friend with benefits who comes back says she has a lead on Sin Rostro, gives him an address where the plastic surgeon is and by the time Michael gets there, he's de...

September 2015: It List

Now that I do weekly favorites, I feel like these will be less surprising... but still. Some good things. 1) Pumpkin Spice Lattes- Its the most wonderful latte of the year! Lol. All the yes. Soooo much yes. Its so creamy and pumpkiny and delicious. It was what has been missing from my life for a long time and now its back and I think they get more and more delicious every year. And I know last year people were like "pumpkin spice isn't cool anymore." Have you had any? It is delicious!!!! I'm a big fan of the PSL. 2) Arrow- I've been wanting to watch this show for a while. The guy that plays Oliver is not only hot, but he was really funny and good on a talk show I saw him on... so that made me like "ohh I need to watch this." I'm also not super into comic books or anything, but I do like Batman and DC movies at least more than anything else and I didn't really realize that there were so many tv shows in the DC universe right now. There are a f...
