New Community Episode Withdrawals Week 2


Tonight marks the second week of not having a new episode of Community on television.  Last week I discussed how this withdrawal was giving me a headache.  The withdrawal is still here.  I miss my Thursday night favourite.

Community was a television show that I looked forward to seeing each week.  Watching the study group and how they acted within the rest of Greendale Community College was a staple of my week.  Was is the key word there.  It no longer is because NBC has decided to remove Community from the Thursday night lineup for the foreseeable future.

Tonight, my headache has been joined by a stomach ache.  It makes me sick to know that tuning into NBC tonight, I will not be greeted with a new episode of this wonderful program.  My stomach and my head ache.  You can only imagine how much my heart aches too. 

Abed, if you can hear me, show me what to do.  Should I put on a Batman costume and head to NBC headquarters to find some new episodes?  No.  That cannot be the case.  That is against the law.  It’s vigilantism.  It’s trespassing.  It may include breaking and entering.  And it’s theft.

This withdrawal is getting to me.  NBC, please put Community back on the air and bring an end to my new episode withdrawal.

First Time Watches: March 2019

Image
I’ve been writing these first-time watch posts for a long time. They are a chronicle, month by month, of the movies that are new to me. They could be theatrical releases or they could be older movies that I’m finally getting around to. Either way, they’re fresh to my eyes, never having gone through them before. With that comes pleasant surprise, a great experience, disappointment, or frustration. There could be many more emotions as well. These posts share my emotions from having watched the movies with whoever decides to read them. I fell behind on these posts a long time ago and have been trying to work my way through them to eventually catch up. This post will cover March 2019 and the movies I saw for the first time over the course of that month. Any rewatches will not be a part of this post. If they aren’t first time watches, they don’t count. March was a month full of all kinds of movies. There were good and bad, like usual, and a variety of genres, also like usual. Th...

Is "Real Steel" Like "Over the Top"?

When I was going through my weekly movie binge a couple weeks ago, I stumbled upon two movies that I had never seen before that tackled a very similar story.   It was an odd thing to have happen because I didn’t know of any similarities between the two movies.   The first was Real Steel, a movie about a man who participates in robot boxing while bonding with the son that he had left years before.   The second was Over the Top, a movie about a man who participates in arm wrestling while bonding with the son that he had left years before.   Similar?   I think so. Let’s begin with Real Steel.   I watched this one because, why the hell not?   I quite enjoyed the movie and by the end I was rooting for Hugh Jackman’s character to help his robot, Atom, to a victory.   The thing to point out about Real Steel is how good the visual effects were.   I wasn’t expecting too much going in, but I thought they masterfully crafted each robot in a way that...

Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: Season 2, Episode 8: The Power Stealer

Image
Last time we sat down with the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers , Tommy was going through some serious stuff.   His powers were running low because Lord Zedd was targeting him.   He felt hopeless.   His friends were comforting him.   There was also a Robo Goat trying to take a powerful sword and use it against the Earth.   There were fights all over the place and an emotional hook that was unmatched in any episode that wasn’t in a multi-part arc. This episode, there might be follow-up to the Tommy storyline.   It would be nice to see more of the struggle with his powers.   Right now, that’s the one throughline that has been playing out.   II hope this episode continues to have some sort of meaning to the overall story, instead of being a self-contained and meaningless.   The show needs to grow and evolve, with a storyline that builds to something significant.   Having episodes that keep the story at a standstill is boring.   ...
