Craptastic sitcoms of my youth..A look at american TV shows that I remember too fondly but shouldnt

My youth was spent watching great u.s sitcoms but thanks to early 90s satellite TV stations we got some wonderfully craptastic ones too but what the hell I love them anyway.

MY TWO DADS..Wait what was this show about again?



BLOSSOM..Ok I admit it, I really loved Blossom in which bad fashion and Joey Lawrence collide and yes I also admit to owning one of those god-awful hats with the flowers on the front in which I apologise.



OUT OF THIS WOLRD..The only thing I really remember about this show is this theme song




FULL HOUSE..I am going to lose all cool points here but this show was my freakin obsession in my youth, yes it was over-sickly and not that funny but I loved it and I thought D.J tanner had the best hair ever. I even had the board game but lets not talk about that



NIGHT COURT..Ok this show was actually very good and one of my favourites as a kid and Dan Fielding is still one of my all time favourite TV characters




THE FACTS OF LIFE..Holy bad-mullets Batman its another favorite of mine, Damn I so wanted to be cool like Jo minus the bad hair and it also has a pre-hot George Clooney for this season too. It also contained an 80s sitcom trait which is a catchy theme tune.

Possibly the best character on tv in recent years...Murray Hewitt

Sorry guys, I,m having a lazy blog day today so I,m just gonna post another video, this is Murray 'gingerballs' hewitts best moments from Flight Of The Conchords

Dean Winchester ruined other men for me...(warning)May cause certain women to have gutter thoughts

I am taking my sensible hat off for a minute to bring you this blog.


As a 30 year old I think I should know better then to get caught up in the phenomenom that is the character of Dean Winchester from TVs Supernatural. But why why why do I not. So here are a few reasons why he did in fact ruin other men for me.


Firstly he is a good looking dude, he really is even without having sex-hair but thats not the main reason.
Are smart cars sexy? Hell (no pun intended)NO, 67 chevy impalas are basically sex on wheels. P.S I would allow an Ipod jack, sorry dean.
Lets delve more into the Dean winchester Sense of humor, yes his blue steel is better than Ben Stillers ever will be but his sarcasm shines through and so does his liking of Frisky women..and on that note
Now for the serious stuff..DW has been through some tough times and well it doesnt come much tougher than being sent to hell and being saved by the hot-sex haired holy tax account/Angel Castiel...hmmm gutter thoughts arising, sorry back to the subject.
After all this dean still remains a fighter and protector for his family but also vunerability plays a main key in his personality and a sense of wanting to save dean is mostly what girls would like to do amongst others things.
Above all, Dean winchester is a good guy, he isnt overly nice but isnt a bad-ass too. he is somewhat a little of everything with a love of classic rock and that is why he ruined other men for me oh and maybe stuff like this helps too

Every film should start like this



Yes dudes, its the beginning to 'adventures in babysitting' hey remember when your babysitter took you out, got you kidnapped,Got you involved in a gang fight, made you sing a crap song in a blues club, left you hanging from a skyscraper? Damn those were good times.

Waiting for a Lost for Dummies Book AKA Does knowing whats going on make a difference

I love Lost, no I really do love it, It is possibly one of the greatest tv programmes of all time but alas I dont understand what the hell is going on.
I,m not a Lost theorist by anymeans, I,m happy to take it as it is but should I really care about the time-travel? should I really care about the Jack-Kate-Sawyer-Juliet hoopla? Should I really care that Hurley cant say a sentence without saying 'dude'?
Can you actually watch lost and enjoy the experience without taking it apart and analysing or is it just one of those shows you need to know what is going on after all?
