Omicron Persei 8

Song of the Sea

I can honestly say this was the most beautiful movie I've seen in my life so far!
I didn't expect it to look so stunning and the story was brave enough to show us complex characters and emotions.
If you ever had to deal with loss (really who hasn't?) [the giant part will break your heart - you can feel his pain just looking at his island] this movie approaches it in a very clever and heartwarming way

3rd Rock from the Sun

An oldie but still very entertaining. Sure some jokes are now not that funny and some references are a bit faded but still makes me laugh.
It has very clever moments and some nonsense humor bits that still make laugh. The characters are unique and very well though and it makes you think about society in a intelligent and funny way.
And while some episodes are dated in their way of thinking (I'm thinking especially the ones about the "traditional family is better", "being gay is funny" or "computers can't get better") others continue to be true: some things never change.

Definitely better than so many newer sitcoms: It's a classic! If you never watched, give it a try, it might surprise you.

The House Detox

Many people on youtube were talking about this show and although it's long (each episode is around 90 minutes) it's very entertaining. Sure some things are specific to Korean culture but it has very good tips for organizing.
It's refreshing to see an organization show that uses the stuff people already have at home and doesn't spend money on shelves and pretty boxes.
The results look good and achievable!

Bruno Aleixo's Film

Typical "Bruno Aleixo", has some pretty funny moments and the overall concept was well thought out, however I think they could have "gone deeper" into the plot (the way it was made, kinda feels like a sequence of sketches). It is entertaining but I was hoping for better.

Father Christmas Is Back

A movie with John Cleese and Elizabeth Hurley should at least make me smile: it's bad and the jokes are very weird and outdated.

The Big Bang Theory: 10x13 The Romance Recalibration

the characters used to be quirky and funny, but now they don't even seem people. The whole episode was basically: girlfriend stereotypes (like relationship problems and even the spa thing), boyfriend stereotypes (the not-even-trying thing and the "cluelessness"), nerd/engineer stereotypes (coming up with a complicated solution for a simple problem).
Like all stereotypes, some people fit in them but most people don't and to watch a show where every single character has become one it's sad and boring. They don't even have personalities anymore, they're just an empty shell.
PS. Bernadette had a tiny strong girl with a slight "evil scientist" side that I loved.... now she's just a mom... nothing more.

Gravity Falls: 1x12 Summerween

the monster in this episode looks like it was inspired by Miyazaki's No Face (in Spirited Away).
I just love how this show has so many different references without being out of context.

Jamestown

It is very entertaining but it has a very big problem in my opinion: the character's morals, values and opinions are too "modern" for the time period;
In this century women had very few rights and the slaves had none so it is weird seeing the settlers defend slaves or poor women "talking back" to much more powerful men.
Equality of genders and anti-racism values are noble and important in the XXI century and I hope they will continue to improve Humankind in general ---- but we can't forget about all the struggles people (slaves, women, minorities,...) had to through to be where we are today. This shows glosses over that and it is a shame.

i'm on episode 4 and still don't really know how i feel about this show:
The idea is great: a woman tries to improve her health by the conventional and not conventional methods; but the thing is she's not really trying at all, she basically gives up every day, so we don't see struggle or improvement, only complaints
Also, i'm not finding the characters relatable (maybe it's fault) and Liv is especially unlikable (she's rude, harsh and way too childish to the people who love her and that many times go out of their way to help her)
i'll watch the first season to the end, maybe i'll be pleasantly surprised but so far, it's not that impressive.

Mr Burns was totally right! maybe the best lines of the season

Ghosts: 5x03 Pineapple Day

Oh poor Kitty :( I was waiting to know how she died, it was very bittersweet.
I think that the way Eleanor apologized and regreted her actions is why Kitty adores her and minimizes the bad times; she saw what it could have been if she survived and prefers to pretend it was always like that (I'm not excusing Eleanor)

The Middle: 9x24 A Heck of a Ride: Part Two

this was a heartwarming show that was also funny without being stupid or offensive. I will miss it for sure.
(although it would be nice to have a spin-off...I'm kind of curious to see how life goes on for everyone)

The Goldbergs: 9x16 The Downtown Boys

I thought this show would end last episode [at Erika's wedding] maybe it'll run until Adam goes to college.
In my opinion it's getting stale: it needs some changes or refreshes since the children are no longer children and the loss of two main actors (grandpa passing away was a natural progress of the story but how will they do things without Murray? I hope they don't do it the way they replaced Brea because it was bizarre)

Ghosts: 3x05 Something To Share?

The Simpsons: 32x15 Do Pizza Bots Dream of Electric Guitars

this episode was kinda weird because... how old is Homer? I know some cartoon characters don't age but Homer being 14 in the 1980s/90s just doesn't add up. In other epiodes he was that age in the beginning of the 70s....

The Simpsons: 35x13 Clan of the Cave Mom

not a bad episode. I liked the "ice age parts" , they're something diferent. However they could have done better: the fear here is social exclusion and that remains the same now and in the past. So to compare being excluded in the XXI century to being chased by a predator in the ice age wasn't that clever as they are different fears.

i actually liked this episode: it was very endearing, sweet and relatable however, it looses it's "strenght" (and in way, makes no sense) because we all know the characters don't age

Ghosts of Christmas Always

i liked this movie, it was different from all the others and it was very enjoyable however i thought the end completely ruined it, it doens't make any sense that she came back from the dead and married her best friend's grandson of course it's just my opinion but it would have been so much more meaningful if she realized something about her life (or some other thing) and moved on to the afterlife
