I still can’t bring myself to buy Star Trek DVD’s

I still can’t bring myself to buy Star Trek DVD’s

I have this love/hate relationship with Star Trek.  On the love side, I love the shows (most of them), and the movies (most of them, too), and the books and comics.  On the hate side, I pretty much hate CBS and Paramount and the things they have...

Netflix: Catching up with The Killing

I recently watched The Killing on Netflix.  If you’re unfamiliar with the show, the first season aired on AMC in 2011.  I remember seeing some buzz about it, but didn’t feel like getting into it at the time.  Now, I’ve got some...

Kitchen Nightmares

So, one of the shows that I always get sucked into is Gordan Ramsey’s Kitchen Nightmares.  I really didn’t like it at first, but it has grown on me. A lot of times, it reminds me of this restaurant where my mom used to work.  It was...
