Something So Right
"Underappreciated"
This is one of those shows that you would have to watch in order to like. It was really funny and all the characters seemed to go good together.
It was about a couple that was married and had kids from a previous marriage. The X came over alot. It seemed that the married couple could just never get the quality time they deserved. I could not imagine being remarried and having my X over all the time. The old husband is always allowing the kids to do stuff that their mother would never approve of and the new husband is trying to learn to deal with kids that are not his. If you could catch just one or 2 of these episodes then watch them. You will be in for more then a few laughs.

"Guilty pleasure"
Almost like a chick flick but with a little something for everyone.
This show is amazing. It is all about a mother and a daughter that are best friends. The daughter is very smart and has goals of going to Harvard. Her mother wants to put her in a very expensive almost like prep school to get her ready but does not have the money it takes.

So she asks her parents for the money but that is very difficult because she has the kind of relationship with her parents that you pretty much only see them and talk to them on the holidays. While they agree to put up the money the terms are that they have to come to dinner every Friday night till the oeny gets paid back.

The granadparents are always trying to influence their grandaughter in any way that they can. They want her to have the life that they wanted for their own daughter that got flushed away in their opinions because she got pregnant at 16.

So it is very interesting to watch how all these interesting people act towards each other. The small town that they live in is full of interseting people that make the show very appealing.

"Underappreciated"
A show that takes out of control kids and breaks them down in order to bring them back to reality.
Wow what can I say. I was hooked on this show and wish that another season would of been on the way. The cool thing about this show was that the kids did not have a timeline on how long they would be in the program. They were there until it was felt that they were ready to go home.

They were basically on a camping trip for months it seemed and had to learn skills to survive. Of course the letters to home making up how bad it was kinda made me laugh at the parents that really believed everything being said.

The kids had to face their demons. There was no where for them to go. Either comply with the rules or you would be there util you did comply. It was a heeling process for alot of them and a confidence booster for others. It was great to watch hem grow. It reminded me of a episode of Maury where the kids go to boot camp and you always wondered what would happened off the camera and how long it really took. This gave you more of a up close and personal look. You got to see first hand what the kids were dealing with and how they were dealing with it. Also it showed how their attitudes changed over the course of time.

I think the kids on this show really accomplished something. It is better then the kids that are snet to detention centers that no one seems to care about them and no one really tries to open their eyes other then by demanding respect.

This show let the kids come around on their terms. They were pushed to but not like you see in other shows. It was great and is really missed.

WCW Monday Nitro
"Absolutely fabulous"
WCW was probably the best wrestling anyone will ever see.
If it was not for Stone Cold Steve Austin I think that WCW would of been buying WWF. The WCW had alot of the top talent and the show was 3 hours of good wrestling with better story lines. Here is a list of some of the wrestlers they had. Sting, Hulk Hogan, Piper, Flair, DDP, Kevin Nash, Scott Stiner, Lex Luger, Buff Bagwell, Raven, Rey Mysterio, Goldberg, Kidman, and Macho Man. Also the Nitro Girls had more class then the slutty looking females on WWF. Stacy Keibler and Torrie Wilson were both on WCW before WWF.

The NWO Wolfpack was my favorite time in wrestling. Sting joined up with Kevin Nash, Lex Luger, Macho Man, and Konan as the top team in wrestling. They represented the good in wrestling. It lasted for along time and was very exciting every week. If you like wrestling then trust me this was way better then the crap that the WWE shows today.

"A very special episode"
Look at all the great fighters in the episode.
Wow this episode had some great fighters in it. Hope I am not the only one that noticed. Kevin James is good friends with some of the pro fighters and attends alot of the UFC events. The fighters that I saw in the episode were Randy Couture, Rampage Jackson, Dan Henderson, and Frank Trigg. That is a awsome group of fighters. The fact that they were on the show is just crazy. You do not see very many shows with Professional Mixed Martial Artist on them. Plus the fight scene was classic. IF you are not familiar with these guys then you do not really understand or appriciate the awsomeness of this. These fighters are the best in the world. The UFC is based out of the states and Pride Fighting Championship mis based out of Japan. They are trained in all martial arts basically. If you are a fight fan this is a must see episode and if you are not then it is still funny. When ever Frank Trigg jumped on that guy with a rear naked choke I about fell over laughing. Trigg has lost a few big fights by that move. It was very funny.
