Best christmas Tv specials!

As you may already know, it’s almost christmas! And that means a load of christmas specials :D, while some are a success others are just plain bad. In this list I’m talking about my favorite Christmas Specials… By the way this includes movies as well.

4) Ed Edd n’ Eddy-

One of my most memorable holiday Tv specials is Ed, Edd n Eddy’s Jingle Jingle Jangle episode. This interested me the most because we see something out of the ordinary… EDDY BEING NICE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Well… he wasnt doing it intentionally at the start, but I love this episode because we see the christmas spirit overcome Eddy. It was a fun, great episode which made you feel happy at the end.

3) Grandma Got Ran Over By A Reindeer-

This classic released on cartoon network was one of my favorite christmas movies ever. It took a nice holiday theme and gave it a twist. Yes, the movie is about a boy’s grandma who got hit by a reindeer… Santa’s reindeer. Based on the song with the same name, we see everything from Santa committing a hit and run, as well as many family problems, which make it a great watch throughout the whole movie. Also, who can forget the song? “Grandma got ran over by a reindeer!”

                The aftermath

2) The Nightmare Before Christmas-

This iconic classic has a special part in all of put hearts and it should be in yours too. Although i’m not sure wether this is a Halloween movie or a Christmas movie, it is great whenever you watch it! Some might say it’s a halloween movie for its Dark and scary characters, but others might call it a christmas for its christmas theme and joy, so I say meet half way. Watch it in thanksgiving 😀 This show mixed two of the most opposite holidays and mixed them into one great movie which explored both amazing things about both holidays. This is a must watch no matter what holiday it is.

Christmas Or Halloween?

1) Billy and Mandy save Christmas-

My favorite christmas Tv christmas special comes from the amazing show The Grim Adventures Of Billy and Mandy. In this episode we see evil Elf’s, vampires, and even evil Santa. The show is mysterious and dark as well, the humor with crazy things happening around the north pole make this a must watch.  I love this special so much because it takes the happy idea of Christmas and makes it a thrilling, scary, plain weird, funny and mixes it into one great special. Just look at Santa…

Mid-Season/Season Finales this week! * SPOILERS*

This week was filled with many Finales to mark their holiday break. Wether it was a Mid-Season or Season finale, each of them were spectacular. Here are some of them.

The Flash

The first of the bunch to release it’s mid-season finale was the flash, and it was a Great start. In this episode called “the man in the yellow suit”, we can hint at that we see the killer of Barry’s mom, also known as Reverse Flash. This episode had all the great things about The Flash packed into one episode.  Click here for Spoilers.

Arrow

Now personally my favorite Mid-Season Finale of the week, is Arrow. As we get halfway into the third season, there is alot we have seen, but we haven’t seen everything. In this episode we finally see Ra’s Al Ghoul, the main villain in season 3, and he made a great impression. Certainly the most ruthless villain Arrow has ever faced. Certainly the best episode of the series imo… Just wait till the surprise at the end of the episode. Will surely make people want to come back. Click Here for Spoilers

*Arrow Mid-Season Finale Spoilers*

All you gotta know is Arrow Dies… Yes Arrow, Oliver Queen. Dies. His match against Ra’s Al Ghoul ended in him getting stabbed twice in the torso. Then thrown off a cliff. The most tense moment was watching Oliver’s life Flash before his eyes.

*The Flash Mid-Season Finale Spoilers*

We start off the show with a brief moment of The Flash chasing Reverse Flash, this is very interesting because we notice that Reverse Flash is substantially faster. We then go back to the day before, and we see a break in by Reverse Flash on a scientists lab. In this scene we see just how ruthless Reverse Flash is… He gets past the guards but is un able to obtain what he wanted. Ill stop there so you can watch the rest yourself…it’s too good o explain. We see the return of Ronny, The Identity of Reverse Flash, oh and Barry finally tells iris his love for her. Top 3 best episode of the season so far, cant wait for the other half!

Nostalgic Tv Episode 8: The PowerPuff Girls

The greatest mistake in history. No its not potato chips. It isn’t chocolate chip cookies either. It’s The PowerPuff Girls! Yes, the PowerPuff girls! Now you might be asking “what the heck is a PowerPuff?” Well, im not quite sure, but what i do know is that it is one of the most beloved shows ever!

Professor Utonium accidentally adding Chemical X into his scientific experiment.

Enough guessing. The PowerPuff Girls are a group of elementary girls with super powers, out to save their city, who were made by accident. And no, not like that type of accident. Professor Utonium, a scientist who was out to make the perfect little girls. Using a mixture of sugar, spice, and everything nice he tried to make the girls but accidentally adds Chemical X. This chemical gives the three little girls unthinkable powers, and forever changes the life of everyone in the city.

Bubbles (Left) Blossom (Middle) Buttercup (Right)

The girls names were Bubbles, Blossom, and Buttercup. Born at around 5 years of age, they dont know how to control these powers and are very irresponsible. Professor Utonium agrees to take them under his care, and after that he is tasked with showing the kids the right path, and how to handle their powers. This is especially hard, considering they are only 5. In the show we see how they handled different situations, occasionally messed up, then fixed it, which is one of the reasons why its so great!

Mojo Jojo

We see them handle criminals, huge monsters, and just daily life. One of my favorite cartoon villains Mojo Jojo, was the PowerPuff girls arch nemesis. He lived on a volcano at the edge of the city. What makes him so amazing was that he used to be Professor Utonium’s assistant until the Chemical X caused an explosion and mutated Mojo Jojo into a talking, crazy, criminal. He would stop at nothing to get rid of the PowerPuff Girls, mostly because I think he was jealous…But that’s none of my business.

The show had alot of funny and I guess “relatable” moments. Such as the episode were Professor Utonium finds a lovely lady. While the girls try to convince professor that she is a criminally insane psychopath, he would not listen to them. She then turns out to be just what the girls said. These episodes had me very interested because it was not all about them being heroes but dealing with daily lives such as convincing your “father” that his love mate is a cold blooded criminal.

The RowdyRuff Boys

Other shows I love are when the PowerPuff girls must go against there exact opposite, The RowdyRuff Boys. They must work as a team to finish off the three boys. This show brings back some good memories, and a good laugh. The show had a great sense of humor was over the top. I remember the commentator on each episode and how he would start and end the episode with laughter. These are just some of the reasons that make this a must watch show.

New DC show line up!

With a great fall lineup of DC Comic shows, they are already getting more shows to be added to the collection of Arrow, The Flash, Gotham, and Constantine. Some of the shows announced are SuperGirl, Titans, and Static Shock! Btw all of the shows listed are Live Action.

If you didnt know SuperGirl is Superman’s cousin! Much like an exact copy of Superman (Just female) Im not sure what the story will be about. But it is great to see more and more Female hero’s in the DC Universe getting some love!

Titans, well, ITS TEEN TITANS! Except… They are not teens. Which explains why they left out Teen. But I cant wait to see them back in action unlike the funny but disappointing Teen Titans Go!

And lastly, Static Shock! If you haven’t seen the original show (cartoon) then you have not lived! Although this is live action i’m sure it will be able to live up to expectation!

These will be a great collection to the already awesome shows coming out of DC Comics! Im seriously thinking DC Comics should have their own channel. But anyway, I can’t wait

Nostalgic Tv Season 1: Recap

After a month, I have made about 7 episodes about our favorite childhood shows. Shows that made us laugh. Shows that scared us. And shows that were just disturbing… Here we are going to Recap!

1. Teen Titans- The show that captured the awesomeness of being in a superhero team! The best part was that they were teens! A group of superhero teens, from DC Comics, out saving jump city from some of the best villains in cartoons!!! Sounds great to me 😀

2. Courage The Cowardly Dog- The show unlike any other. Maybe a first of its kind, was a horrifying thrill ride for kids, maybe too horrifying at times but thats what made the show so great. It was different from other shows which were usually happy, and cheerful. It had elements of fear and humor. Amazing!

3. Codename: Kids Next Door- A secret organization of highly skilled kids set to get rid of the adults tormenting towards other kids by using crazy weapons, fighting crazy villains, and having secret bases around the world such as the moon. Yes, sounds amazing right.

4. Avatar: The Last Airbender- A world filled with 4 nations, where there are people known as benders, who can control elements of their nation. Each nation was kept at peace by one person. The Avatar. The only person able to bend all four elements. But when the Avatar gets lost for 100 years, the Fire Nation invades and tries to conquer the other nations. In this show we see the Avatars struggle trying to regain peace and stop the fire nation, but he’s only a kid.

5. Fosters Home For Imaginary Friends- Certainly one of the more creative shows, we see a world where Imaginary friends are real, and live amongst the humans. Following a kid named Mac we see a Fosters Home… For Imaginary Friends. Here, all    Imaginary friends who were either outgrown or abandoned end up here. We see the crazy adventures of Mac trying to keep his Imaginary friend.

6. Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy- This show falls in the category of disturbing… Within this show we follow two kids, and there servent, the Grim Reaper. We see Grim and the kids go through crazy adventures with Grim’s powers, and the crazy world they live in. Most episodes end up in a really weird, funny way. But that’s what made it so great, the weirdness and craziness!

7. Ed, Edd n’ Eddy- In this show we follow a group of friends called the Eds, including a con-artist, an inventor, and another kid up in cloud 9. We see these kids go through out there neighborhood, plotting different schemes each episode on their neighbors, which end up in fun and hilarious moments. No matter what they do, it will always fail, and is one of the great aspects of the show.

Well, there you have it! All 7 episodes so far. For more information about these shows just scroll down my blog page, and you’ll find it! Cant wait for shows to do next!

Nostalgic Tv Episode 7: Ed, Edd n Eddy

In this cult classic, we see some of the most infamous kids in cartoon. Ed, Edd n Eddy. As a group of three boys, they live in a cul-de-sac where they do all there malicious deeds. In a quest to gain money, get presents, get popular, the three kids try to scam the fellow kids in their cul-de-sac. Not only trying, but failing every time!

Eddy (Left)
                            Edd (Middle)
                              Ed (Right)

Ed is the dumb one of the group, known for always messing up, but usually ends up in hilarious moments. Edd, also known as Double Dee, is the scientific groupie, and is always trying to invent new stuff. Although she is in the group with the other Eds, she usually goes against what Ed, and Eddy do, but she is always somehow brought back in. Finally Eddy, known as the con-artist, and selfish leader of the group. He is always plotting on how to con the kids in his suburban neighborhood, but usually ends up failing in a hilarious way.

Them eating Jaw Breakers

With hundreds of attempts at conning kids, they end up as the loners of the cul-de-sac. But you must be asking, what do they want with that money? Well, Jaw Breakers of course! The best candy around, which only cost 25 cents! They’ve tried almost evrything to get money. Things such as a lemonade stand, car wash, to a totally insane attempt at making the biggest pancake ever and trapping the kids under the pancake. I mean…Who thinks of that?!?!?! Although almost every episode is about them trying to gain money, each new attempt is so unique and crazy it makes it interesting every time.

But dont get me wrong, the whole show isnt about trying to get kids money ( well kinda ), sometimes around some crazy things happen. Like when Ed wears a dinasour costume… You dont wanna be there when Ed is in a dinosour costume.

They also have to deal with every day life as kids. They have to deal with school, other kids, and “love”. Yes I said love. Now who might love these three insane, selfish, con-artist, deceiving kids? Well only the kanker sisters of course! Probably the only people worse than them.

Marie ( Left ) Lee ( Middle ) May ( Right )

They are a group of sisters, who live outside of the cul-de-sac in a trailer park. Their main purpose in the show is to cause chaos throughout the Eds. First off is Lee, The “Leader” of the sisters, and known for her very aggressive tone and very passionate love for Eddy. Secondly is Marie, known for being the smartest of the kanker’s, she is still much like her sister Lee, and has a love for Double Dee. Lastly is May, the dumb blonde of the bunch, which is not surprising because she’s in love with Ed. No wonder the Eds dont like them… They are some of the most abusive bullies around.

With amazing characters and amazing humor this show makes me remember about the shows from the 70’s and 80’s. Such a great show, with lots of different elements each episode, and many different schemes each time. Love it!

Nostalgic Tv Episode 6: Grim adventures of Billy and Mandy

Although certainly one of the darker shows along with Courage the cowardly dog around the time, it had a mastered the technique of mixing both Humor and Darkness in the same show. At first glance, you can see the Grim Reaper, but its not what you may think.

Some art people drew, makes it seem 100x darker than it really is.

In this show we see 2 kids named Billy and Mandy. Billy the irresponsible, immature, boy with thought to have the lowest IQ ever, and Mindy the crazed devilish child who is very arrogant and controlling. She is even feared by her parents!  When billy wins a limbo contest he is awarded with the Grim Reaper to forever be his slave. Although Grim has a vast amount of powers, he is forever under control of Billy and Mandy.

Billy and Mandy fighting over Grim.

This brings them through different events each episode from an evil invisible duck to a talking human sized spider who thinks Billy is his father. Although there is no main villain, we see occurring problems throughout the series. Such as the Chaos apple, Fred Fred Burger, even the Boogeyman. Most problems are cause by Billy and Mandy’s miss use of Grim’s power or Grim’s past coming back to haunt him.

Even though these characters might seem scary and evil for a kid, its pretty humorous at times, making it a perfect mix of both genres. Some are darker than others, and some are the other way around. For example, Fred Fred Burger. This character is just plain humorous. What ever he does, puts a smile on any ones face.

Fred Fred Burger eating frozen yogurt, while he repeatedly gets brain freezes.

One of Fred Fred Burgers most famed phrases.

With hundreds of humorous moments, there is still a sense of tension. You never know what’s gonna happen. But one thing I know is that it will be very very crazy. For example, when grim changes billy grade from an F to an A for a grade, he changes fate and reality is thrown off balance, so they must go back in time to stop himself from helping billy. Doesn’t sound crazy? How about this? Just a normal day when billy, mandy, and grim are abducted by cheese addicted aliens from the moon… Maybe the episode where Grim, Billy, and Many have to save christmas, as Santa has been bitten by a vampire. To save santa they need o find the head vampire, which turns out to be Ms. clause. I know, crazy right?

Just some of the weird scenes from the show

At the end of the day, this is a great show and recommend it to all. With its A+ humor, and great episodes. It’s a nice mix of craziness, darkness and just plain humor.

What i’m watching right now.

So with the fall season here, there is an abundance of new shows premiering  across multiple channels. But only a few caught my attention.

For the CW, I have been watching the newly debuted Flash. It’s on at 8pm Eastern Tuesday. It started with a bang, with a great pilot which taught us his whole origin story while still creating a universe around  other shows like Arrow.That brings me to my next show, Arrow season 3, is my next show i watch and it’s on every week at 8pm Eastern on Wednesday on the same Channel. This season starts with a big surprise, and has us wondering what will happen. They seem like great counterpart shows both feeling like its own.

The Flash and The Arrow

On Fox I have been watching Gotham of course. With a few episodes already delivered I am invested in this show. It’s a thrilling crime drama mixed with the greatest villains of all time. With James Gordon, we can see a side of Gotham we’ve never seen. It plays at 8pm Eastern on Monday.

On FX I watch American Horror Story each week, at 10pm Eastern every Wednesday. With a new theme, The Freak Show, there’s multiple ways to keep us horrified. Such as a killer clown. In this town you wouldn’t want to live in. With a corrupted circus, and the most disturbing acts you’ll ever see.

One of the scariest killer clowns i’ve ever seen

Lastly, on Comedy Central, the 17th season of South Park. I don’t have to explain this. The humor is back, and better than ever. Also, one thing i’ve noticed… The shows are continuos!!! Well, I don’t know the exact word, but meaning the effects of one episode follow into the next. One simple thing can change the future of the next episode!
