day 6

Do your characters believe in luck or fate? Okay, so the cast of characters that I am working with is pretty extensive, so I think that what I’m going to do is focus on a single character for each question that resembles this one. That way, it won’t get too repetitive and you’ll kind of

I feel like Justine Bateman’s Nellie is my favorite guest star because of how apropos and meta her casting was, just a pristine example of the type of comedy that Arrested Development was known for: obviously she’s actually Jason Bateman’s IRL sister (although not Michael Bluth’s), and she starred in a 1980s sitcom, Family Ties

I’m running a little bit slow today because I was dumb and stayed out until after 04:00 like I forgot I am an almost 40-year-old woman and not a college student. Hopefully I have learned my lesson, because my head is killing me. And I didn’t even drink! Oh, well. But anyway, onto today’s challenge:
-
Honestly, every single episode of Bubblegum Crisis is a essentially a mini-movie, shrinkie-dinked down to an average of about 40 minutes, and several of them, with a bit of tweaking could be excellent stand-alone movies. However, out of the eight, “Revenge Road” is just a bit more perfect than the other ones; yes, even more

Now, I’m fairly certain that everyone has an expectation that the main villain of the series – Vicious – is going to a top pick for today’s challenge, but I’m here to say, “Nay, thou art mistaken.” Don’t worry; I’ll get to that guy later on in the month, but for today, I’m going to

The night I walked into the theater with my family to see The Phantom Menace, I had a huge, excited smile on my face, fully prepared to be wowed by the mind of one of my major creative influences. Instead, I was jealous of my mother, who’d somehow fallen asleep near the beginning of the

Oh, thank god, an easy one. Well, easy as in I don’t have to write a lot. It’s picture time! Anyway, Xena’s outfit stays pretty consistent for the first several seasons, probably for budget purposes, but they got more adventurous as the seasons went on. For example, this samurai-inspired … thing. And then there’s this
-
This one actually pains me because Robin Sachs is one of my favorite actors (RIP, sir), but Zaeed Massani is just … somehow boring. And he shouldn’t be. He founded the Blue Suns, for god’s sake. He has a favorite gun named Jessie. He looks like he’s seen some shit and even has a bionic
-
There were some pretty amazing guest starts on Friends (and a lot of pretty terrible ones, too, but I’ll be getting to them tomorrow), so of course, it’s hard to narrow it down to one. To shake things up, though, I’m going to list my runners-up first, just to keep you guessing. You’re welcome. Bruce

This one is kind of a no-brainer: Season One was trying to get its footing and failed on so many levels. I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again: first seasons tend to be iffy by default. Television shows are a collaborative effort: all the different groups have to get together and figure out
