Television Shows

I might have a blog for television shows that I'd like to do, but I don't have plans to make up a separate one for television shows that I really liked. Since, I don't just find entertainment in watching movies, and if I do get in front of a television I like to catch some shows to. I do favor, and have a penchant for the laugh lines of 70's era television. I've found few shows that can come close to matching to quality or frequency of humor in the 70's. (I think the laughter still lives in Maine, but few places I travel to embrace it quite like they do in the State of Maine.)

I'll save some of the best into this post, and add to it from time to time.

Classic Television had to be:

Beverly Hillbillies, Sanford and Son, Good Times, Hogan's Heroes.

I sort of missed the Gun Smoke era, and it's twenty year run, I barely remember Bonanza, or F-Troop, but they're shows I'd love to catch up on now that I'm older.

I didn't what much television in the 90's, but I like Tool Time whenever I watch it today.

I totally missed Seinfeld, but catch a show from time to time.

I'll keep this running

Crocodile Dundee

Must be a Top 50 Movie -

Proves that Love really can move the world. Even in New York. Might've been an eighties movie, but captured it's day well, and continues to be a classic.

The Last Samurai (2)

As I catch the ending battle of the Last Samurai once again, I can't help but contemplate that the battle that still exists today, and which will be our battle as people of the world again one day is whether or not we will win the battle within to return to not battle with anything but honorable weapons, or even succeed in the inner battle to the degree that peace will once again live and reign in the world because the last battle was done with honor.

I doubt greatly that the Kingdom can come on Earth as is it in Heaven until as a people of the world we can collectively come to this place together in such a way that this is communicated even across the lines of battle before they even begin, and as nations we need to act honorable, to bring honor to ourselves, and those whose ideology is diametrically different from own own. (more on this in the book)

Troy

Great effort at filming an Epic.

"I'll tell you are a secret. The Gods envy us. Right now we are more lovely than we will ever be. We will never be here again."

Lust for Life

Kirk Douglas as Vincent Van Gogh, a troubled Van Gogh at that. I learned more about Van Gogh that I didn't know. It's rated a 4-star movie, for that reason, I'd like to see it again.

The Agony and Ecstasy

Charlton Heston as Michelangelo. I'd like to see this again, and in full. Only a two star, but a telling film. Top 200 for sure.

Four Brothers

Top 150 Movie - Marky Mark does a great job of showing to what extent police will go to, and what tactics many of the bad ones will actually go to.
