Let's Go Extreme
My last two writings were about my two favorite animated versions of the Ghostbusters: 1986's "Filmation's Ghostbusters" and 1997's "Extreme Ghostbusters." They couldn't be any more different from each other yet they have so much in common. Here's how:

Come Home to a Place You Never Knew
I am a TV and movie fanatic - TV shows and movies help me to feel less alone and I love having my TV on in the background. I can't say that I have been watching more than usual during this quarantine because this is kind of my daily routine, but hey *cough, cough* the quarantine can be my excuse for watching more TV and movies than usual if need be (winky face).

ICYMI: 3 Overlooked TV Shows with At Least 3 Seasons
I build emotional connections to TV shows. Sometimes these connections aren't super serious, we see each other when we can and if we don't, it's no big deal. I'll maybe watch their Christmas special every year and wish them the best.

The Importance of a Dr. Quinn, Medicine Woman Reboot
It's been nineteen years since Joe Lando and Jane Seymour played the roles that won the hearts of millions of fans around the world. As Sully and Dr. Michaela Quinn, the duo ignited a passion for historical drama and romance that still sizzles today. In fact, the fan base continues to grow as more viewers find the series which recently aired all six seasons on Amazon Prime but is now available on Philo.

what you might have missed
I am probably quite a rarity during this lock down period, I have drank less, eat less and watched less tv. Music is my escape at the moment, best way to block out the world. As a front line carer its important to forget the world now and again. So here's 3 things lost myself in recently.

The producers of The Flash apologises for cutting three episodes of The Flash season 6, and there is a good reason why they did. The season was cut down by three episodes as the director shut down the production due to coronavirus pandemic.

A Filmmaker's Review of: "The Russian Revolution" (Netflix, 2017)
Obviously, everyone knows the story of the Russian Revolution and the planned killing of the dynastic Romanov Family and I really can’t tell you how many documentaries I’ve watched on the topic if you put a gun to my head. However, this one seems to stick with you for a long time after you’ve viewed it. It’s one of those documentaries where you can honestly say that someone has really thought about the viewing experience here. It’s not you’re straight-forward documentary with fact after fact. It has a narrative structure, intriguing characters, reason and philosophy, connections between actions and their knock-on effects and so much more. Sometimes, because it is told in the style of a narrative constantly approaching its climax - you really do have to remind yourself that this stuff actually happened.

A Filmmaker's Review: "The Royal House of Windsor" (Netflix, 2017)
I’m not going to lie but when I first started watching this, the one thing I was wondering was ‘how are they going to tell me anything new? I was born and raised here, I know the story of the House of Windsor. How are they going to teach me something whilst making this look exciting and innovative?’ Now, when I actually began getting into the episodes, that was a question that was answered straight away. Through compelling evidence and a lot of the evidence presented as being ‘never seen before on TV’ - I can honestly say that I had an amazing experience of watching this amazingly made documentary series about the Royal House of Windsor.

A Filmmaker's Review: "Race for the White House" (Netflix, 2016)
I enjoyed this series far more than I thought I would have initially because I did not think I would have enjoyed a documentary about the American Presidency at all. It’s one of those aspects of history which has never really interested me that much and I’ve never known why. (Maybe it’s because I’m from Britain and so, I’m ingrained with a belief of a guilty pleasure for pomp and decadence). There are many things that I love about this documentary, but before we get on to the slightly funny and maybe even the analytical, I would like to be partly serious for a second. I know very well who this series is narrated by and I am making absolutely zero comment about the narrator or his life. If you would like to bring me up on that, please do not - it has nothing to do with my review or my interests. Take it up with the courts and the man himself if you are so concerned please.
