Extreme Makeover: Home Edition (2003)
If i hate something, then it's hypocrites
Over the whole world there are shows like this, shows where they help out families, now sure i agree what you are all thinking now, what's bad about that, but it's the way is done that's so disgusting.
What do we basically see, a family that has a family member (or sometimes multiple) limited to something, or people who do a lot for others, they renovate their house and the people come back in it. But those aren't the parts i dislike, what i dislike is the reactions from that team and all, that's just awful, do you all realize what they make, if you had their paycheck for a whole season then you wouldn't have to work for like 10 years at least. Same goes for ABC, they make lots and lots of money on this show, do you really want to hear their crap? If they would truly care about them then they would use everything off their paycheck that they can miss to help people, but hey they don't care that much, and they are nothing but a bunch of actors who peel some onions to get the tears going and then need 5 takes to get the scene right.
This is show is just wrong, all these types of shows are wrong, here in the Netherlands we have a similar show with some woman who does projects to help people, but at the end of the day she hardly does anything except for when they want to take a shot for the episode, and in the end she gets a huge paycheck.
And let's not even discuss resources they use up, for example in 1 episode they use a firetruck to get back at Ty, you all do realize that if a fire and all breaks out that the firetruck that is supposed to save your house or whatever will be making someone wet, on top of that you as American citizens are paying for this, you pay for that firetruck.
Then there is the fact that the money spend is so bad, thousands of dollars are spend on stuff that those families don't need, like huge TV's, do they need that? No they don't, if they truly cared about helping so much then why not give them a smaller TV and use the other money to give it to other people who need help?
And the worst of all, has anyone noticed that almost all of those houses are large, i'm sorry but it must be me, but from what i know is that the majority of the people live quite small, why help the people who live large, because they can't afford it all well? Well doh, try living smaller, but hey you want to make it a spectacular show, and with a small house it wouldn't be very spectacular...
Trust me, this show isn't about helping the people who have their homes renovated, but helping that awful team and everyone else involved in that show to fill their pockets with money. Sure all shows are about making money, but they don't hide, this show is just making money but they hide it under the idea that they do this for those people, but it's all nonsense, and for that they are a bunch of damn hypocrites.
If you are gonna be selfish then just say so, but don't be damn hypocrites and pretend to help people.
Angel (1999)
Best show in it's genre
If you asked me a year ago what Angel was then i wouldn't of have a clue, now it's 1 of my favorite shows.
I never had much interest in Buffy the Vampire Slayer, the story sounded pretty much stupid, i mean a teenage girl with superhuman powers doesn't really sound that great, at least not to me.
I started watching it about a year ago though, the first 4 seasons were being repeated late at night, and since there wasn't much on i started to watch it, all characters were decent, but really nothing special, except for Angel, this guy had a past, a real mission, he was hurt by his past and tried to do good in the world, to redeem himself.
The series Angel is nothing like Buffy the Vampire Slayer, it's much more mature and dark, they don't fight because they have to, but they fight because they choose to, every single one of them risk their life to help the helpless.
The action is good, the comedy is great and so is the drama, they did a excellent mix of the 3, the sets and make-up are very professional, and the character development has been done very well, overall i just have nothing bad to say about this show, except it being cancelled after 5 seasons, 1 of the biggest mistakes ever.
Personally i think everyone should see the first few episodes, i'm sure there are people out there that won't like it, but don't let the idea of demons and all keep you away from this show, it's truly 1 of the best shows around and deserves to be checked out by everyone.
Not Another Teen Movie (2001)
Great movie!
This movie is simply very stupid, but funny. It's pretty much the same like every other teen movie, but then even more stupid, it spoofs many teen movies like American Pie's, 10 Things I Hate About You, Cruel Intentions, Bring It On, and many more.
The reason why i personally really like it is because it is unlike any other of those movies, simply because it's pure comedy, it doesn't have those sappy parts about love and friendship.
Like others said though, to really enjoy this movie you should of seen quite a few of teen movies, especially the 4 i mentioned, if you haven't seen them then it's still good, but you will not get all the jokes.
