TV Talk: Day 33
Posted by TheDoctor in Uncategorized on August 28, 2018
TV Show: Supernatural: The Animation
Aired: 2011
About: Same plot as the live action show but with some differences.
Would I recommend: Yes, if you are a fan of the live action show and want to see what Supernatural is like in anime form. You can find it on DVD. There is the Region 1 DVD and there is also a Japanese Version of the DVD.
Other Info: The anime has a happier ending than the live action show. Since the anime is only a mix of Season 1 and Season 2.
Extra Info: If you are interested to know, the English Dub has Jared voicing Sam for the whole season, while Jensen only voices Dean for the final two episodes. A different actor in the English Dub voices Dean from episodes 1-20. The Japanese Dub does not change the voice actors. There are also anime original episodes, and a episode based on the Supernatural comic book. Most of the original episodes from the live action show are renamed and changed slightly, so if you watch any of the episodes you will notice the differences between the live action show and the anime itself.
Oh and if you have the Region 1 DVD of Supernatural: The Animation you get to see Jared or Jensen, or both of them give the introduction for each episode. Also, if you have the Region 1 DVD you can hear Carry on wayward son by Kansas (Instrumental on the Menu Selection Screen and part of the song itself in the end credits for each episode) There is also a cover version of the song but I think that is only if you own the Japanese Version of the DVD. I could be wrong though but then again, who knows.
TV Talk: Day 32
Posted by TheDoctor in Uncategorized on July 24, 2018
Tv show: Constantine
Aired: October 24th, 2014 – February 13, 2015
About: John Constantine is a demon hunter who is also capable of using spells and magic he learned over the years. He helps people in any way that he can, and he also faces off against the supernatural threats as well.
Would I recommend: Yes, I would. Its kinda like Supernatural, but it is much more dark and mysterious.
Other Info: Due to low ratings, the show was cancelled. There was plans for a second season but that never emerged due to the low ratings from the First Season.
TV Talk: Day 31
Posted by TheDoctor in Uncategorized on May 20, 2018
Tv Show: M*A*S*H
Aired: September 17th, 1972 – February 28th, 1983
About: The show follows a team of Doctor’s and support staff that are stationed in the 4077th MASH (Mobile Army Surgical Hospital Unit) in Korea.
Would I recommend: Yes, I would recommend the show.
Other Info: MASH had two spin off shows. The short lived AfterMASH and the successful spinoff Trapper John, M.D. There was also a pilot for another spin off called W*A*L*T*E*R but it was never picked up for a official series. The pilot was only shown on CBS and was never shown again. There was also a movie called M*A*S*H which was made two years earlier in 1970. So this show was adapted from the movie, and also based the book called M*A*S*H: A novel about three army doctors. One more fun fact. The show was created after an attempt to film the original book’s sequel M*A*S*H Goes to Maine failed.
TV Talk: Day 30
Posted by TheDoctor in Uncategorized on May 19, 2018
Tv show: Moonlighting
Aired: March 3rd, 1985 – May 14th, 1989
About: Blue Moon Detective Agency is a detective agency that solves cases with its two partners Madelyn “Maddy” Hayes and David Addison Jr. (Played by Cybill Shepherd and Bruce Willis respectively)
Would I recommend: For a show for its own time yes. It also breaks the fourth wall in some parts.
Other Info: Shows usually have 22 episodes but this show didn’t have all 22 episodes. The reasoning for this was because there were problems with the production, crew and producers themselves. Also, new episodes failed to air because of it. A low point for a show. Only 66 episodes were ever produced. Due to rating declines in the later seasons, the show was cancelled in 1989.
TV Talk: Day 29
Posted by TheDoctor in Uncategorized on April 20, 2018
Tv show: Knight Rider
Aired: September 26th, 1982 – April 4th, 1986
About: Michael Knight (Who was once Michael Long before he nearly got killed and had to have his face reconstructed) is a lone crusader fighting crime alongside a car named KITT who talks and helps out in any situation.
Would I recommend: Yes, I would. That theme song will get stuck in your head all day long.
Other Info: There was a spin off, three tv films, and two tv series.

Miami Vice: Final Report
Posted by TheDoctor in Uncategorized on February 27, 2018
Out of all of the seasons of Miami Vice i watched, Seasons 1-3 are my favorite seasons. Seasons 4 and 5 however, are my least favorite seasons.
The only episode I enjoyed from Season 5 was Freefall. (Series Finale) The rest of the episodes from Season 4 and Season 5 were either okay, or not great at all.
Too Much, Too Late (from Season 5) is the only episode I am not going to watch again due to its content. (NBC refused to air it due to the content. And they were right about the content.)
Missing Hours from Season 4, made no sense. It wasn’t really about Miami Vice and it was more about the paranormal.. James Brown being an alien.. and that Peanut Butter dream sequence. This is where it jumped the shark for me.
The Sonny Burnett arc was okay, but there was consequences once it concluded. And Sonny Crockett wasn’t the same after that.
Overall, a good ending to a series with the series finale Freefall. And now I leave you with the words that started it all for the series and ended it with them as well.
Crockett: Hey, Tubbs. You ever consider a career in southern law enforcement?
Tubbs: Maybe. Maybe.
Miami Vice: Favorite Season So Far?
Posted by TheDoctor in Uncategorized on January 31, 2018
I would have to say Season One. It is just so awesome. Season Two was alright. Season Three, it was okay. But Season Four was not very good. I mean there are episodes that were okay but the episode that destroyed my hope for the season was the Missing Hours episode. I’m currently on Season Five. So once I finish that, I’ll give my final report on it.
Kinda like submitting a case file to the lieutenant of a police department.
Miami Vice: Favorite Episode?
Posted by TheDoctor in Uncategorized on January 31, 2018
The Pilot (Also known as Brother’s Keeper) from Season 1. I like the episode and its plot, also Crockett looks cute with short hair. This episode pretty much got me hooked on Miami Vice. Because it uses Original Music/Songs which makes the show really enjoyable.
Some other information that may be really interesting to know is that the Region 1 DVD of Miami Vice showed the episode in its entirety. For the Region 2 DVD of Miami Vice, showed the episode in two parts.
Miami Vice: Which Season Jumped the Shark?
Posted by TheDoctor in Uncategorized on January 21, 2018
Season 4. It became more of a soap opera and there was some action but not like the other seasons I have watched so far. I have yet to watch Season 5. But Crockett has longer hair now, and Tubbs has a beard. Also Crockett got married.
