Winters here are long, cold and depressing. Some
days you don't even want to stick your nose out from
under the covers, let alone get up and go out. Some
days the weather's so bad that you can't. On days
like that, which tend to be frequent, its nice to
curl up at home with some popcorn & hot chocolate &
catch up on you're tv time. Here's some great shows
from every time period & genre to keep you company
on those stuck-inside-all-I-want-to-do-is-watch-tv
days.
'C.S.I. Crime Scene Investigation - The Complete
First Season'
'South Park - The Complete First Season'
'The Twilight Zone - Collection 2'
Some excellent kids' cartoons that adults can
appreciate as much if not more:
I hope they bring
'Pinky and the Brain' to dvd soon.
The best non-educational kid's tv show on today
'SpongeBob SquarePants - The Complete 1st Season'
'SpongeBob SquarePants - The Complete 2nd Season',
and the best non-educational kid's show from thirty
years ago is
'Scooby Doo, Where Are You! - The Complete First and
Second Seasons', hands down!
Best superhero cartoons ever, atmospheric, clever &
addictive
'Batman - The Animated Series, Volume One (DC Comics
Classic Collection)', & the next volume
'Batman - The Animated Series, Volume Two (DC Comics
Classic Collection)' is going to be equally
amazing. Can't wait!
2nd best superhero cartoons ever would have to be
'Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles - Original Series
(Volume 1)'. Too bad the live action movies
sucked. Oh well, hopefully we'll get more of these
awesome cartoons!
'Fraggle Rock' and
'The Storyteller Collection' haven't been on for
years, but they just brought the Storyteller out
recently, & for those who havent seen it, it's one
of the most captivating and beautiful shows ever
made for any age group. Its a shame they made so
few. And Fraggle Rock is one of the cutest,
cleverest muppets shows of all time. It's the first
tv show I ever watched.
Of course not all cartoons are so wholesome.
Let's not forget the adult cartoons that have shaped
modern culture so much.
'Family Guy, Vol. 1 (Seasons 1 & 2)' I cant
believe they cancelled a show this ingenious &
irreverent- wait, yes I can. Oh well, now we can
watch it without interruption from commercials or
censors.
'Family Guy, Vol. 2 (Season 3)'
And of course the classic, the epitome of American
filial disfunction & satire: the Simpsons.
'The Simpsons - The Complete First Season'
'The Simpsons - The Complete Second Season'
'The Simpsons - The Complete Third Season'
'The Simpsons - The Complete Fourth Season'
'The Simpsons - The Complete Fifth Season'
And since their Halloween specials are good enough
to stand on their own, no collection would be
complete without these gems (I hope they release the
rest of the Treehouse of Horrors)
'The Simpsons - Treehouse of Horror'
And let's not forget the hilariously profane
mountain-town 8-year olds of South Park.
'South Park - The Complete First Season'
'South Park - The Complete Second Season'
'South Park - The Complete Third Season'
'South Park - The Complete Fourth Season'
Moving on to some more obviously adult TV shows,
HBO is the master of amazing TV series, they have
some of the most innovative, captivating shows in
the history of TV. HBO has such a knack for finding
the right mix of uproarious comedy and genuine human
drama & pain. With shows like
'Six Feet Under - The Complete First Season' and
Sex & the City, its not hard to see why HBO is now
considered not an extra, but a necessity. (I've
heard great things about the Sopranos, but so far I
haven't seen it & this list is just for shows I've
seen)
'Six Feet Under - The Complete Second Season'
'Six Feet Under - The Complete Third Season'
'Sex and the City - The Complete First Five Seasons
(5-pack)'
'Sex and the City - Season Six, Part 1'
'Sex and the City - Season Six, Part 2'
And in crime dramas, first my personal favorite: the
original CSI (thank god they worked out the contract
issues & all the cast members are back)
'C.S.I. Crime Scene Investigation - The Complete
First Season'
'C.S.I. Crime Scene Investigation - The Complete
Second Season'
'C.S.I. Crime Scene Investigation - The Complete
Third Season'
Then the next obvious crime drama would have to be
the classic, yet fresh and time-tested series, Law &
Order.
'Law & Order - The First Year'
'Law & Order - The Second Year'
'Law & Order - The Fourteenth Season (2003-04
Season)'
The spin-offs are as good (I actually prefer them to
the original).
'Law & Order Special Victims Unit - The First Year'
'Law & Order Special Victims Unit - The Fifth Year
(2003-04 Season)'
These are the most graphic of the lot, but these
episodes are some of the most compelling and moving
of all.
And last but not least, my favorite of the Law &
Orders- Law & Order: Criminal Intent
'Law & Order Criminal Intent - The First Year'
'Law & Order Criminal Intent - The Third Year
(2003-04 Season)'
Try the humorous
'Monk - Season One' to liven the dark world of
crime & punishment.
And on that note, I leave you to trek on down to
your video store, stock up & spend some quality time
with your tv. |
