Hump Day Update 2/7/18

What I'm Watching  At the moment I'm watching Inside Out... I'm about to watch 9-1-1 though because that's new tonight and they're doing a Valentines Day Episode. I saw a theory that The Good Place and Parks and Rec took place in the same universe... and so I'm watching both shows again and seeing what happens! I liked both of the pilots... but it's kind of funny how much each show changes from the start. And it's cool to re-watch The Good Place knowing what happens. I watched 2 episodes of Black Mirror and that was good... I'll probably be done with the series soon. I watched This Is Us and the Super Bowl obviously... both of those I've covered on this blog. I didn't watch yesterday's episode of This Is Us... and I'm still behind on The X Files. Trying to watch some more youtube... I have a HUGE watch Later playlist... I'm going to watch a bunch! News  Here  is an article about the first African American Woman to be...

Hump Day Update 1/31/18

What I'm Watching Last week I was sick and I was mostly watching Black Mirror... which probably isn't the best thing to watch when you're sick... I have recaps of that coming up on Sundays... I finished up season 4 and then I went back to season 1 and now I'm on season 3... I feel like I might need a bit of a break from it for a few days though... just because it's a heavy show and the episode I watched last night made me kind of uneasy... so I'm just going to kind of proceed with caution when I watch the next few episodes. I also started watching Arrested Development again... which has been a lot of fun. I love that show it's my favorite tv show ever... and I'm really happy with it! The Goldbergs 1990 something spinoff special was pretty great. I just liked it a lot. I hope they make that into a tv show... I also really liked Crazy Ex Girlfriend and Jane The Virgin this week. It was the return of both of those shows... which is pretty cool! I tho...

Hump Day Update 1/3/18

What I'm Watching I bingewatched Riverdale... it's such a good show. I really liked the first season- I watched what I could watch on the CW's site... so I'm caught up I just missed the first 4 episodes of the new season. The first episode was just on today- so I tivoed that and I'll watch it. That made me want to watch Gossip Girl... I always want to finish the show... I didn't really love it though and I hate Chuck Bass... I have to say I can't see rooting for a character that assaults a girl on the first episode... plus Ed Westwick has been accused of assaulting girls in real life... so that's not something I support... I honestly fast forwarded a lot of his scenes because I just couldn't stand his character. I'm going to do a bit of a Throwback Thursday tomorrow comparing this to Riverdale.... because things have changed a lot. I don't know if I'll continue watching the show... I might start with season 2 or something- idk. I want...

Weekly Update 12/28/17

I forgot to post this yesterday... so how about this instead of a personal blog? I feel like my personal blogs aren't really going anywhere... lol. What I'm Watching Everything is pretty much a repeat this week... but I did watch Safiya Nygaard on youtube a lot... I just love her channel. I think she has some really creative and good quality videos and I'm really a fan of hers! I've been watching sooo many videos of hers it's great! News  So I wanted to look up what news happened this week... and I found a bunch of misleading news articles saying "Meghan Markle's sister is NOT happy with Prince Harry" or "Samantha Markle Slams Prince Harry." When really I don't think anyone was slamming anyone. Prince Harry described Meghan Markle being in the royal family as "a family she's never had." and Markle's half sister Samantha responded saying "Actually she's from a big family that's never been anything but...

Hump Day Update 12/20/17

What I'm Watching  Every Christmas Special!!! I talked about all the christmas episodes last week... Life in Pieces is still on this week and it was funny last week. Prep and Landing Naughty vs. Nice is on next and I like that a lot... so I might watch that. I did watch The Santa Clause... but I already posted my reactions to that... so I'll watch the other Santa Clause Movies and The Grinch soon. I still haven't watched my favorites which are Elf and Christmas Vacation yet... ugh. I saw A Christmas Story Live... didn't see all of it- but I liked what I saw... and yeah! That's pretty great! News  Last week I reported on Mario Batali's sexual harassment allegations... this week we got an apology with a Pizza Dough Cinnamon Roll Recipe... just so Mario could show how sincere and serious he was about it. Tarana Burke, founder of the Me Too Campaign will push the button to drop the ball on New Year's Eve in Times Square. I think this is a really great ho...

Hump Day Update 12.6.17

What I'm Watching  I finally watched Merry Christmas Charlie Brown! Now the Holiday Season can start! There was a Disney Christmas Special... it wasn't my favorite special- but I still kind of liked it. So I watched that. Life In Pieces... the Thanksgiving episode was soooo sooo funny! And the episode from Thursday was good too. The Thanksgiving one was the best of the show so far though! Lol. I really liked the Will and Grace Christmas Special they showed last night. It wasn't the best Christmas Episode of Will and Grace but it was still really funny... and my favorite moment was when Karen's son Smitty said something terrible that happened and she giggled and said "Ohhh Smitty, you always know to cheer me up" which is a callback to one of my favorite jokes from the series. And Superstore was funny last night too... not as funny as the Halloween one- but still good. I showed my mom the 2 episodes of Curb Your Enthusiasm that my friend showed me an...

Hump Day Update: 11/15/17

What I'm Watching  Right now the Wednesday Night Comedies on ABC. I'm excited because they weren't on last week and now they're back! And that's exciting! Last night was the last American Horror Story Cult... and I'm okay with how it ended... it's not my favorite ending ever... or maybe it is... I don't know. I think I liked how Murder House ended and Hotel ended pretty good... But this was a powerful ending and it felt a little personal... but yeah. I'm happy it's over because Winter died... so yeah. I didn't like how it started because I am sooo not interested about men in prison... ehhh. I watched one episode of This is Us... I'm not in love with this season. It isn't bad... just not my favorite after last year's amazing season. But you know... it's still a show. And I watched some Kevin Saves The World... that show is really good. I like it a lot. It's cute. News  I was a fan of Louie CK but I'm not any...

Hump Day Update 11/1/17

What I'm Watching  The Superstore Halloween episode was sooooo funny! I was super excited! All the other Halloween Sitcoms were pretty amazing too. Great News would be my second favorite... I'm excited for what's going on on The Good Place... I think Will and Grace is getting better. All the ABC shows were great... It's just been an exciting Halloween season with some good tv. I actually watched Dancing With The Stars on Halloween... everyone was really great- at least I thought they were. There was a double elimination- but I thought Vanessa did a really good job. Nikki was good too... sorry if you didn't watch it yet! The Phantom of The Opera group dance was amazing, the other group dance was so much fun too. I like Jordan Fisher a lot... I'm rooting for him. Drew Scott is pretty good and I like Frankie Muniz a lot.  I just thought they were all fun to watch and good. I watched Hocus Pocus 2 times- they had an all day marathon on Halloween... so that was...

Hump Day Update: 10/25/17

Sorry this is so late! Onto the show! This isn't a show it's a blog! What I'm Watching  American Horror Story amiright??? This show has slowly consumed my life in the past few weeks especially! I love this season... last night's episode was my favorite ever... I think. I just really liked this one for some reason. Winter is my favorite so it makes sense that an episode about her was my favorite. There was a good amount of torture, plot, and backstory... plus huge change of character for Ally... I kind of love her now... and I feel like watching in between the lines... maybe something happened to Ally that makes her more scared of everything... I'm not sure. Just re-watching old seasons... there are similarities between Ally and some other characters like Vivianne and Lana Winters... so maybe she has a reason to be scared. And she was badass when she contacted Kai... she played him! He totally wanted to show that he was more fearless than Ally was- which is why h...

The Weekly Pop! 10/21/17

Here it is... Weekly Pop! Sorry this is sort of becoming the bi-weekly pop but... idk life happens! News  The news about Harvey Weinstein is everywhere... several actresses and women are all coming forward saying that he sexually harassed or assaulted them. Gwyneth Paltrow, Angelina Jolie, Rose McGowan, and many others have been some of the people mentioned. Recently actress Lupita Nyongo mentioned that he asked her to massage him and take her clothes off or something. Several people have pulled their movies from being made by the Weinstein Company. Lin Manuel Miranda is changing studios for the film version of In The Heights, Channing Tatum has pulled out his movie from the production company. Ben Affleck apologized for this happening in Hollywood saying "Wow, this was going on for years and I had no idea!" To which Rose McGowan replied "F*** Off Ben Affleck" and said that she told him that he grabbed McGowan inappropriately and Affleck replied "I told ...

The Weekly POP!

So...I kind of keep thinking of Weekly series to do... and I don't fully have this planned out yet- but I think on Saturdays I will have any and all pop culture news... and maybe I'll include some things that aren't actually news but things about Pop Culture I found out this week? Honestly... I have no idea what I'm going to do with this blog... I just came up with the idea less than a minute before I started writing this very post... so let's see what's up! News  All of Will and Grace is available right now on Hulu... it is virtually impossible to get this on DVD- they never made a blu-ray... so this is kind of the only means to watch it- unless you're like me and you watch it on lifetime every weekend and tivo it and watch it before bed most days... I already want Hulu to begin with... I don't have it currently... but this has me pretty excited! The revival debuts on Thursday! This weekend could be one of the most successful in Box Office history...

Scribbles About News: Erin Hayes Fired from Kevin Can Wait, Colourpop Comes To Sephora, and More

Sooo I have a lot of news related stories that I have kind of strong opinions on right now... so I wanted to kind of talk about them. Let's start with the one thing that has just been upsetting me so much this week... and that is that Erin Hayes was fired from Kevin Can Wait and is going to be replaced with Leah Remini. Reps from the show said that this was not based off of Hayes' performance... they just wanted to add Lea Remini to the show and they couldn't afford to have both her and Erin Hayes on. Erin Hayes said that she was shocked and sad about being fired... but has no resentment towards the cast and crew of Kevin Can Wait... she had a fun time with it and she was very mature. They also said that they are not trying to re-create The King of Queens by adding Remini to the show. Kevin Can Wait is still it's own thing... they're just re-tooling it... and they just happen to be keeping all of the people from The King of Queens on the show. Ohhh and how are t...

Weekly Wrap Up 7.23.17: Be a Cactus!

Sunday 7.16.17   Today was kind of a chill day for me. My dad was working in my room… vacuuming- patching a wall up and figuring out what to do I guess. He painted my shudders… so that was good.   I watched some youtube videos… caught up on some of the last D23 things that were going on… I really want to go to DisneyWorld sometime soon… That Star Wars Hotel just looks awesome!   And I went out for dinner with my parents… I had ribs with corn on the cobb and a baked potato. I ordered some drink that was supposed to have lemonade in it… but I think they forgot the lemonade… so it was just straight up alcohol… and it was pretty good.   That was pretty much it… favorite thing of the day… The Dis… they’ve been really good for all the D23 news… maybe that was more of a favorite for Saturday… but I’m including it today too. Great Disney News Podcast… really excited for stuff coming out soon.   It was also National Ice Cream Day… I just had a tiny s...

Weekly Wrap Up- What I've been doing this week, some news, and some favorites!

Alrighty… I’m changing how I do the Weekly Wrap Up a little bit… I think I’m just kind of going to give an overview of my day, any news that kind of shaped that day… and I’ll talk about some of my favorite things of the day that day… so it’ll be a little more in depth… a little longer… two things you don’t want to do on a blog… but I’m doing them anyway because why not.  Sunday 7.9.17  So I’ve mentioned this in other blogs before, but I’m getting new furniture in my room, and redecorating it, repainting it and whatnot… so I’ve been moving everything from my room and I’m almost done with it… I’m writing this recap on Monday and I should be done with it tonight and I’ll clean up after that… but it was kind of driving me crazy again today… it’s a little more relaxing to just have nothing in there, not much to do… but at the same time… there was a lot to do and a lot I had to get rid of and clean out a lot… I still need to vacuum and clean and stuff… but right now… most e...
Favorites  Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt- The new season was my favorite one so far… and I started watching it from the beginning again… so I can say for sure I liked it better than Season 1… I haven’t gotten past season 2 yet- but I think I like it better than Season 2 as well… so I’m super happy with this season… I finished it pretty much right after I posted the weekly wrap up… so it was sort of from last week… but I’m still watching it over again… so there’s that too.  Friends- I’ve been watching Friends again too… I’m trying to watch it from the beginning… but it’s on tv all the time too and I watch it all the time on TV as well. Season 1 isn’t the best… but there are some great episodes. The One With The Blackout is great, The One With The East German Laundry Detergent is good… there are a lot of good ones. So I’m excited about this!  Fidget Spinners- These are so much fun! I have one of the regular Fidget Spinners and a Fidget Cube… I kind of like the Fidg...
