Oxygen is no longer a woman’s network? Just what we needed, another channel dedicated to showing reruns of Forensic Files.

It’d be better if NO mergers happened (and I’m crestfallen at the Warner-AT&T news), but if it’s gotta be one or the other, I’m picking Disney. Comcast is plenty large enough now that they own Universal and Dreamworks’ animated division.

This reminds me of what bothers (and frankly, worries) me so much about Democrats. There’s just no fight left in them. Their obsessive need to compromise, turn the other cheek, take the high road, et al has made them unwitting enablers for the GOP agenda. The sooner they abandon the antiquated hippie ideal of “peace

See, my reaction to House of Mouse was the same that people are having to this Wreck It Ralph trailer. People seem to forget that the cartoons in HoM used to be a part of their own series, Mickey Mouseworks. That show didn’t last, so Disney reintroduced the cartoons as the entertainment at a trendy night club

Eight Simple Rules for Replacing Your Belligerent Butthole

Behind every Goodman is a bad woman, apparently.

Release the robotic Sandy Duncan!

There’s a lot of ”B-but Bill Maher said!” from the tighty righties. One, Bill Maher is not a hill any sane liberal would die on. Two, comparing Trump to an orangutan is NOT the same as claiming a dark skinned person is a lesser primate.

One episode that I remember really liking was Death Train, where they find evidence of the bubonic plague on a train that pulled into Dodge and the townsfolk go BERSERK. “There’s no animal more dangerous than a man with fear,” one character warns as the cast try in vain to stop a riot. It’s a line that’s stuck with

You’re using Lolo and Lala as your avatar! You have good taste.

I KNOW Clancy Brown from his voice work. It’s a little disconcerting to learn that he had second thoughts about those roles. Also, he looks kinda like he could be Ron Perlman’s kid brother.

So it’s Japanese cartoon Leave It to Beaver?

And you won’t like him when he’s angry!

Late Gunsmoke wasn’t as bad as late Simpsons.

With their secret weapon... Adam Sandler!

Your father wasn’t wrong. I watched it in syndication in the 1980s, on Me-TV when it aired there, and have a handful of episodes on DVD. Gunsmoke was consistently good; a strong action-drama series even if you’re not into westerns. (Arizona Midnight can go straight to hell, though. Every television series has to have

The difference is that Gunsmoke stayed pretty good throughout its run (aside from the annoying habit of using James Arness as a last minute deus ex machina in the later episodes). There are more bad episodes of The Simpsons than good at this point, suggesting that the series has long run out of steam and is overdue

Well, there’s Ringing Bell, which was marketed for kids... but probably should only be watched by adults. It was based on the creator’s World War II experience, and this is the only way he ever felt comfortable describing it.

I wouldn’t call the new Nancy hilarious, exactly, but anything that makes baby boomers this angry is worth keeping.

I enjoyed Night Court as a teenager. I went back to it when the episodes were available on Google Play and it holds up pretty well, although there’s a certain lack of polish that’s hard to ignore thirty years later.
