Spending this Thanksgiving week with my sisters, I didn’t watch a lot of television. I did watch and review episodes of Homicide, Degrassi High, Miami Vice, CHiPs, Fantasy Island, Baywatch Nights, The Love Boat, and Monsters.
And, earlier today, I watched episodes of CHiPs, Degrassi High, Baywatch Nights, Monsters, Malibu CA, Check It Out, and Friday the 13th: The Series and I wrote up reviews that will post over the course of the upcoming week. It’s always nice to have a head start on all of that.
On Tuesday, Erin and I watched A Charlie Brown Thanksgiving. Charlie Brown really was way too nice about Peppermint Patty inviting herself over to his house and then getting upset over being served popcorn. Myself, I love the fact that Snoopy had a fully cooked turkey that he basically hid from everyone else until it was just him and Woodstock at the house.
On Wednesday, I watched the latest episode of Hell’s Kitchen. I was not surprised to see Lulu eliminated. I hope Brandon wins this season.
I watched bits of the Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade and also the four football games that were played on Thursday. My cousins were really into the football games. I said I thought it would be nice if everyone could win and I got booed and accused of being a commie. As for the parade, it just made me wish that I was in New York to see it in person. Maybe next year!
On Friday, I watched episodes of two old 90s shows — Rollergames and Happy Hour. They were both enjoyably dumb.
And that’s it for this week!
It’s that time of the month again!
December brings us to Awards Season so the Oscar race is about to become much clearer. Until the precursors start pouring in, here are my current predictions!

It’s been a while since I shared any songs about the end of the world. Will you be watching Inception when the Earth swallows us? I’ll probably be watching It’s A Wonderful Life for one last time.
Enjoy!
The much-missed Gary Loggins always shared this song on Thanksgiving, on both this site and his own personal site. I’m happy to honor his memory by continuing that tradition.
I’m from the Southwest. I’ve always preferred fried chicken to turkey.
Happy Thanksgiving to all!
Enjoy!
