Last night’s new episode of The Simpsons “Homer and Lisa Exchange Cross Words” probably wasn’t as funny as I expected it to be. However, I’m going to give it points for creativity.

Super Mario World - The Night Before Cave Christmas

I can’t help it; I’m obsessed with this TV show every time I end up finding out that it’s on. I guess maybe I’m ‘taking notes’ for the day when my fiance and I have kids and if they’re unruly and whatnot. I like the way the nannies deal …

Entourage show
I watched a couple of shows, until I finally realized I don’t much like it. In fact, I don’t understand all the hype about this show. It’s shallow, the cast are like two bit actors who’ve never heard of acting workshops, and the storyline isn’t at all fantastic.

Ghost Hunters: The Red Room
OK, the Ghost Hunters episode “The Red Room” turned out to be a big disappointment. I don’t mind watching the show and seeing them debunk various ghosts but it is pretty sad when they don’t even have anything they can debunk.
