Long time no...

Well it's been a long time since I've been here, the last week or to I have made quick visits to some discussion boards.

So why haven't I been here for such a long time, to be hounest there's not a real reason, okay I've been busy with school, next week we have exams but I also find time to play games :P.

Well an update of what has happened since the last time:


I was making music videos about the movie Third Man Out with Chad Allen, I'm also a member on the forum of his official fan site and the webmaster showed my music video's to Chad's publicist wo then contacted me a couple of days later saying he wanted to contact me.

Of course I was very excited and replied very quickly, then a week of impatience past and I got a replie asking me if I wanted to do more, after a couple of emails he told me that in the beginning of next year he would send me new movies with Chad Allen in it, to probably make movies about it I think.

So now is a time of waiting for next year, lol. In the mean time I'm also in the Chad Allen online staff as Video Producer and Discussion Board Manager. :)

So that's for Chad Allen things :P


School things

Well as I said earlier I have exams next week so I'm very anxious to see how that will turn out. 2 months ago I started at a new school studieing Social Work and if all turns out and I get all of my studie points this year I will go to college next year studieng Psychology.

Lets not talk about school anymore...


As for tv series, why else would I be on tv.com?

I still watch them although not as frequently as before because I'm very busy sometimes with school and my work. At this point I'm watching ER season 1, I never really watched the show but last week I bhought season 1 for my mother because she likes it and what turned out... I like it to :P

And I also watch Stargate SG-1 and Stargate Atlantis now, but I'll have to wait till march before it continues :(


Also a couple of new photos before I end this blog



(Is someone noticed I hardly ever smile on foto's... you're right :P If I smile on foto's it almost always looks retarted...)


Quote of the something:
I heard this one in the movie "Paris"
"Good people have terrible dreams because bad things upset them, bad people they never have bad dreams."

So in the mean time I'll probably rewatch Angel of Buffy or something.

As a last question to you:
Is there any new series worth watching?

Woohoo two more

Well I was bored :P so I decided to submit a couple of things and now I have two more editorships.

 First of all I'm very proud to being the editor for Chad Allen because I admire him and what he does, he comes out for what he is and tries to help others.


Chad Allen

And second of all


James Lafazanos

who playes almost all the wraith on Stargate Atlantis :P
We've only seen him with the wraith make-up on but I think he deserves a role on Atlantis in which we see his real face.

Kyle XY / Bones

Recently I started watching two new shows,
Kyle XY
Bones


Kyle Xy

Kyle XY is a show about a boy who mysteriously came into this world, he can't remember anything from the moment he woke up in the forrest. The Trager family decides to take him into their home to take care of him.

Yesterday I somehow stumbled upon Kyle XY, I can't even remember how or why, I was probably just surfing on tv.com and seein an ad or reference to it somewhere. Anyway I started watching the Pilot and I was suprised to see that I liked the show, I'm somewhat of a science fiction fan, I like Star Trek, Stargate, The X-Files and so on but when I read the summary for Kyle XY I didn't expect a great show or something.

The Pilot:

I think the pilot for Kyle Xy is a good one, it introduces us with the characters in a good way, it opens up some questions which probably will be the red line for this season and you really wonder what Kyle is and where he came from. And the appearance of Terryl Rothery was great, although it where probably only 20 seconds :'(.

Today I watched episodes 2 and 3 and they where fun to watch to so I will start continueing to watch this show. I'm happy about ABC renewing Kyle Xy for a second season.


Bones

Bones is another csi kind of show. So at first I wasn't to excited about a new csi show, because I think there are enough at this point. I love the original CSI, I don't like Csi Miami and I'm not compelled to watch CSI New York. But Rtl5 decided to show Bones sunday evenings so as I have nothing better to do at sunday evenings I watched this show.

As with Kyle Xy I was plesently suprised by this show. Although I wouldn't mind it very much if this show got cancelled or if rtl5 wouldn't show it again I will watch this show probably as long as it stays on the air. Just like CSI it's a really entertaining show and while it isn't a show you really have to watch every week because it doesn't really have greater story (or I just haven't seen it yet) it's fun to watch when you have time.


So now I have two more shows to watch :) (not that I watch that many shows)

does anyone have any other suggestions for good series to watch. I read that Heroes could be a good series so maybe I'll start to watch that one to.

My first editorship

Finally my first editorship, although it's a actor who I haven't seen for a couple of years :P but I liked her in Boston Public.  Jessalyn Gilsig But I have a couple of questions though so if anyone could answer them: 1. Can I add photo's for Jessalyn now? 2. Can someone become an editor for Jessalyn if he or she surpasses my points if I don't want it. 3. Can I add news? _________________________________________________ I'm also writing Angel/Buffy fanfiction at the moment, it will wrap up the ends of both series, include the Deeper Well, some characters we haven't seen for a while and set up a beginning for possibly more fanfiction if I want to write more. :P If anyone is interested I will post the first chapter soon.

Really pissed....

For the first time I start adding trivia and so on by a person because there was no one there yet eccept someone with 2 points, so I thought maybe this will be my first editorship. I start adding things and what do I see next day, suddenly just as I start adding things someone else is adding things to!!! like he hasn't enough things to do, and they get to see his things first because he has a higher level, now I can forget about becomeing editor for Mark Lutz.... that brings me to a question though, how can you earn the most points? do you have to ad 20 trivia items to get 40 points or is there an easier way?

Boring....

Well tonight I found out again how boring this 'city' is. If you can even call it a city, of course it has city rights, but if it was up to me I would give take that rights away and call it not a city but a .... I don't even have a word for it. Tonight I went to a couple of friends, at 1 am we went to a pubb (we don't even have a disco here...) but there where only 8 people or so... Damn I hate this place, I'll be happy that I will go to school in another city, they at least have descent pubs and disco's. Well so at 2 am or so I was back home and made a couple of pictures :P ... what else to do? ...    That reminds me... I have to get a better webcam or camera. Well good night everyone. (yeah it's already time to go to bed here :P)

5 years of angel

 this post was last updated on: 29-07-'06  Well today I watched the conclusion of Angels fifth and last season. Wow I got the season Tuesday and I've finished it now so that means I watched 5,5 episodes per day :P. Ah well you have to do something in your vacation. With this last season I've watched all there is of the Buffyverse, and I'm really disappointed that there isn't any continuation. Why was Angel cancelled anyway? I didn't notice any degradation in it's last season, but I will get to my opinion on that later. Let's have a look trough Angels five seasons.  Angel Season One: The One where Cordy gets the Visions. The first season of Angel, after Angel left Sunnydale he decides to move to Los Angeles and fight evil, together with his gang Coredelia and Doyle, later Wesley they open Angel Investigations, a company that helps the helpless. I liked the first season of Angel quite a lot even though it missed a real red-line, season one consists mostly out of stand-alone episodes which is not a real problem, because almost all of them were really good. Highlights of Angels first season: I Will Remember You: What Angel never gets to have, (or probably never) this episode is about how his live would be if he became human and had a relation with Buffy. This episode was just really great, what I love about spin-offs is that there's a change for characters of the one show to come into the other show giving the feeling that's is bigger then what you see. Anyways this episode is superb. Hero:This episode is just so good, even though I found the Nazi like demons a little to Nazi like in my opinion they overdid them a little bit, the end made me really emotional and I like that about a series because if you get emotional when a character dies in a series the series did a good job in my eyes because it made you care about the character. To Shanshu in L.A.: The finally of the first season and quite a good one at that. The explosion of there office, Cordelia in a hospital and Lindsay loosing his hand yeah!:P all make this a super episode and the ending creates quite some possibilities. All and all this is a great first season, maybe even better then Buffy's first one because everyone had more experience when they started Angel.  Angel Season Two: The one where Angel does something stupid. They survived the first year, but can they survive another? With Darla and Drusilla in Los Angeles and Angel slowly turning evil will Wolfram and Heart win? In this season Angel turns evil again, strangely he also did this in the second season of Buffy, I guess it must be some habit or something. This season is yet another great instalment in the BuffyVerse, I love Drusilla and Darla and this season giver you them. And of course we get Fred this season :). Highlights of Angel's second season: Are You Now or Have You Ever Been: I like this episode a lot, I always like episode's that deal with someone’s past. I did a speech at school about the witch-huntings of that time and it was fun, I'd rather say interesting, to see Angel in that time and being a victim of that. Reunion: Drusilla, Darla, Lilah and an evil Angel, what more do you want? Epiphany: The last episode where we see Kate, I would have liked to see her make an re-appearance in Angels fifth season, but I guess that wasn't in it. This episode will have a consequence which I don't really like. Another good season, where's the next one?  Angel Season Three: The One with the irritating Connor Someone from Angels past will make a visit and Angel is in for a surprise from Darla. I really like most of this season but I never liked Connor, as a baby he was acceptable but either I don't like Vincent Kartheiser or it's just the way Connor will screw up everything. Highlights of Angel third season: Birthday: Alternate realities are always fun to watch, and Cordelia as a star is no exception to that. Waiting in the Wings: Just a fun episode, to bad they didn't use the deleted scene of Alexis and Amy dancing. And the mask men where kind of creepy, they where a little the same as the bad puppet guys from Buffy's Once More With Feeling. Tomorrow: The finally of Angel's third season, Angel goes down and Cordelia goes up. Now I hate Connor even more. Season Three was again a good season, the last one where we see Cordelia like she really was. The only thing I really don't like is Connor, he betrays Angel over and over again (okay this season only ones) but they never should have introduced him or they should have written him different. (or another person to play him would be fine to)  Angel Season Four: The One where Cordy goes bad. With Angel at the bottom of the Sea and Cordelia being a higher being, Fred and Gunn have to run Angel Investigations. Can the gang survive the upcoming Apocalypse? This season is darker then the last three seasons, many things will shock you and the humour isn't there so much anymore. This season was one of Angels best although I didn't like the fact that Cordelia was bad and Connor screwed her. Also I was a little disappointed with the ending when Jasmine was so easily defeated without much of a fight. The Wolfram and Heart take-over was again a surprise, this season has lots of them :( Lilah dying being the baddest. :P Highlights of Angels fourth season: Spin the Bottle: Although I thought this episode really made me think of Buffy's Tabula Rasa I still liked it. It has some great consequences wich we find out later. Orpheus: The witch is back... As I said before I like seeing characters from Buffy on Angel and the other way around, this time we saw Willow again, but this time in action! Home: Angel gets Wolfram and Heart? I never excpected that. Seeing Lilah again of course was a major factor in making this episode so great. This season was much darker and together with the long storyline that's what is making it so good. I didn't like the way Connor went betraying everyone and after that going all crazy, in my opinion he should never have been on the show, but I won't let him spoil the fun I had with this season.  Angel Season Five: The One where Angel is the boss of Wolfram and Heart. Can the gang survive the corruption at Wolfram and Heart? The last season of Angel with them being the bosses at Wolfram and Heart, who would have excepted that? I like that Harmony is back and we get introduced with lots of new characters, to bad they cancelled Angel cause I could see Angel getting better and better if they had continued. Highlights this season: This season had tons of great episodes so I will mention a few great ones that deserve to be mentioned before I will get to the top 3 episodes. Hell Bound, Life of the Party, Harm's Way, Damage, Smile Time, Power Play, Not Fade Away Now lets move on to the top 3: A Hole in the World: Fred dies... This episode is really one of the best of Angel, I always loved the character of Fred and it makes me sad to say goodbye to her. They way we do it is just superb. Fred's: Why can't I stay? Line was so hearth wreaking. Shells: I liked the character of Fred a lot and I think Amy did a great job in portraying her but this time she shows she can do way more, they way she portrays Illyria is top performance. The Girl in Question: This episode is in here because I just love the humour in this episode, I won't mention the fact that this is the third to last episode and that I think they should have paid more attention at building towards the series end. I just loved the boss of the Italian Wolfram and Heart, and seeing Andrew back is always lots of fun. As a final season I'm a little bit disappointed with Angel, throughout the season we had close to none build up. To be honest it felt like a first season which isn't bad if Angel would have continued. I would have loved to know more about Illyrian and some of the other characters that where introduced. There where a lot of stand-alone episodes which had no purpose, they could have easily been deleted like Why we fight. It was a nice episode but it wasn't needed, so I'd rather have seen some build-up instead of that. Season 5 was a great season but as a final season it was a little disappointing. Well that where five years of Angel, together with Charmed and Buffy it where the 3 series I grew up with. I find it a shame that all three have ended now, although Charmed probably should have ended with season 7, I would love to see more Buffyverse and I really hope they will make the Spike Movie with Amy Acker. It where a great couple of years with Angel, and I will have fun rewatching the series.  Best season: Season 5 This season is really great and if it wasn't the last season it would have been better. I chose this season as the best because I will look at it not as the last season but just a season. :P Best main character: Cordelia She was always the best character off al of them, I already liked her in Buffy even though she was a **** I was shocked when I heard that she wasn't a regular in season 5 anymore. Best sub character: Lilah Morgan Lilah! Lilah! Lilah! Lilah! she just has something. Well I hope I didn't bore you to much.

What does the future offer?

 this post was last updated on: 29-07-'06 update history: 25-07-'06 Well I finished 5 years of Angel rather then making a whole review of each season. I think of making one of Buffy to and maybe Charmed, in that case I will delete the Charmed season 7 post.

Charmed season 7

 this post was last updated on: 26-07-'06 Update history: 25-07-'06

I recently bhought Charmed season 7 because it was the only dvd box in the store that I liked and I hadn't bhought a dvd in quite some time because I was saving money for my vacation, so when I came back and had money to spend I thought why not?

 
Charmed season 7
After a season as bad as season 5 and 6 cen it get worse? You would say no, and in this case you're right, season 7 is a season of Charmed that I like very much, it has quite a few good stand alone episodes and the Avatar story is fun to see as well, so let's go trough the episodes of Charmed's seventh year.

 score: 6.0
# 7.01 A Call to Arms
Piper and Leo attend a Hindu wedding and recieve the spirits of  2 Hindu gods.

Well what to say about this first episode, it has some funny moments, but the overall story isn't that inventive, as a season opener it could have been way better. We again see Barbas who makes Leo kill an Elder... -OMG he killed an Elder?-

Aside from the not so good story we also get introduced with another man from Phoebe's work, hmmm maybe she will get a relationship with him cause she never did that before with someone from her work...

As a season opener it wasn't the best ep, some parts where funny but they should have written a better story.

score: 6.5
#7.02 The Bare Witch Project

OMG we get to see Lady Godiva in real person and if she doesn't return to her own time we have a grey future.

The second episode of season 7, again not a great story in wich we get to see Phoebe nude - yeah... - the episode is entertainable but that doesn't make it good. I didn't have to see Phoebe naked on a horse.

score: 8.0
#7.03 Cheaper by the Coven
The Charmed Ones become teenagers again and Wyatt is attacked by a demon.

Charisma on Charmed, I was excited when I saw her on the show, and hey here she also has visions and a demon. :P

I have this episode a high score because it's very funny, although they have done things like this before I still like a comedy ep at it's time, so in that way this was very welcome. I never really liked Leo being bad, but hey that will soon be over.

score: 7.0
#7.04 Charrrmed!
Pirrrates in Charrrmed...

I like to think that we have seen enough magic or fairrry tale creatures in Charrrmed but this time we also get pirrrates. When I hearrrd that therrre would be pirrrates I thought I wouldn't like the episode but afterrr watching it, I liked it quit a bit, Charmed is entertainable this season and that's nice but entertaining isn't everything and the story's thus far could have been way better.

score: 8.5
#7.05 Styx Feet Under
Piper dies and becomes Death

I couldn't stop myself from showing another picture of Charisma, I love her and seeing her in Charmed is always fun, she doesn't get much screentime but you won't hear me complaining.

We had to miss the Angel of Death for a couple of years but now he is back and he hires Piper. This episode is the best in the season untill now, and if the episodes get better and better that's a good sign. This episode is how almost every episode should be, some humour, a little drama and a hole in someone's body. :P

score: 7.5
#7.06 Once in a Blue Moon
The sisters discover that they turn into Wolfs every 50 years when there is a blue moon.

Im so sad to say that this episode is the one where we see Leslie for the last time, I almost had to cry when we didn't see him again next episode...

As for the rest of the episode, this episode is quite enjoyable we see more violence then we're used to and in this episode that's good. I don't really like agent Brody and his Avatar obsession, but we can't have everything.

score: 6.8
#7.07 Someone to Witch Over Me
Paige and Kyle investegate a couple of strange deaths and find that a demon is stealing guardian angels.

Well I didn't like the episode with the muses and suprisingly I don't like guardian angels. The thing I liked a little about this episode was that Leo turned into an Avatar thus progressing the Avatar storyline. I can't remember how many times the sisters have died now, or at least some of them. We get to see Peter Woodward again who played the Source, it's fun to see him as another demon but it was very obvious he had played the Source because he acted almost excactly the same and oh yeah the parts where Paige was clumsey where somewhat funny.

score: 8
#7.08 Charmed Noir
Paige and Kyle get trapped in a novel that takes place in the 30's.

I always like it when writers try something they haven't done before, and with Charmed that doesn't happen to many times, with Buffy you had Hush, The Body and Once More With Feeling. Charmed Noir is a mediocore story but the way they portrayed makes is good.

Rose acts like she belongs in that time and I loved her seducing the corrupt cop :P the falling piano was just so crazy it was fun. The only bad thing I have to say about this episode is that I was sorry Brody didn't die.

score: 7
#7.09 There's Something About Leo
Piper learns Leo is an avatar.

I like the Avatars very much especially Alpha and Beta, this episode lets us see how stupid and crazy Kyle really is, apart from that it's a nice episode

to be continued...

My top 3 favorite series

 this post was last updated on: 24-07-'06

Lets bore you guys with my 3 favorite series, you will find that they all are a little alike but that's the reason why I like them so much, so without furder uphold...

#1 Buffy the Vampire Slayer

Who doesn't know this series, if you don't you should be ashamed of yourself and start watching it NOW, don't read any further just start watching.

I started watching this series because a friend of mine watched it to, I think my first episode was the episode where Buffy had just returned from L.A. with the zombie party, from that point on I kept watching the show. This show has everything, drama, action, humour should I go on? And apart from that it spawned Angel another great show.

Buffy is a show wich has tried many different things like a musical (ONCE MORE WITH FEELING), an episode with almost only music where the characters lost there voices (HUSH) and an episode withouth music (THE BODY) I don't know that many series that even dare to make such different episodes and that's one of the reasons why Buffy is so great.

# 2 Angel

The spinn-of from Buffy the Vampire Slayer, the difference:
This show future's the vampire with a soul, Angel, this show is much darker then Buffy the Vampire Slayer wich may be a reason to like it even better or just the opposite.

It was very hard for me to chose between Buffy and Angel because they both are just so good, I finally put Buffy at number one because that was the show that started it all.

Angel futures one of my all time favorite characters Lilah Morgan from Wolfram and Heart, Wolfram and Heart is a company of lawyers wich work for evil, this is also a difference between Angel and Buffy, Buffy always has one enemy whilst Angel has to fight all those lawyers (OMG!) and other evil.

(as a side note I have to tell you guys that I haven't seen season 5 yet :P but I ordered it so I should get it this week)

#3 Charmed

Why is this show on number 3? To be hounest I don't like season 5 and 6 and the first half of season 8 was terrible, I don't like Phoebe after season 3 and I don't like Cole and Chris and Billie. :P Lol so now I have said that I will try to explain why then this show is still in my top 3.

I started watching Charmed probably at the same time as Buffy and Angel so those where the 3 series I grew up with the last 8 or so years (from the age of 10, time does move fast :P).

Charmed is a series about three witches who have to fight evil, the first 3 seasons where super when Shannon was still in it and Phoebe wasn't a complete ........ Seasons 1 trough 3 just had all those great episodes like, Is there a Woogie in the House, Morality Bites, Awakened, P3 H20 and so on.

After Shannon left the show she toke a little Charmed magic away to because after her departure the show never was the same again. I like Paige and Piper as the oldest sister but Phoebe just got the most atention and that annoys me. But despite that the show has many good episodes packed with humor, drama and sometimes even great action, so that's why this show is still in my top 3 because I like series that trie a lot of things.

Well that was my top 3 but I will list a couple of other great series as well because they deserve to be mentioned:

Dead Like Me
This show is just great, it's funny it has sarcasm and reapers. It's to bad it only lasted for 2 seasons.
Star Trek Voyager
Not the best series, but certainly very entertainable and that's why it deserves to be mentioned.
The X-Files
Mystery and aliens.
The Ghost Whisperer
On of the new shows that could be very good if they go a little bit darker.
Stargate Sg-1
A good sci-fi series.
Crime Scene Investigation
Better than it the spinn-offs this show offers the best investegators.

Well I won't bother you any longer, so this where my 3 favorite shows and the shows that deserve credit in my opinion.
