Who's Meeting World?!

If you haven't heard there is a new idea in the Wonderful World of Disney.  They own Star Wars!  Ok ok but that is actually not what I'm talking about.  I'm talking about the new TV Show Disney is planning.  Girl Meets World. 

Suddenly - you flash back to your childhood.  Sitting on the couch with a PB&J (crusts cut off of course) on a Friday night.  Teen Angel just ended and you are loving the line-up.  Up next a story of a young boy, his trailer trash friend and soulmate . . . . what is this magical show that gives you delight, joy and teaches a lesson?  
Boy. Meets. World.

This is a familiar memory.  In our family it was a weekly occurrence followed by the line we are all familiar with coming from out dear mother: "You Watch WAY too much TV". And we did.  Still when the seventh season ended and we said goodbye to our beloved TV Show it was bittersweet.  An amazing finale, an amazing show.  We didn't know what to do with ourselves.  What to watch, where to learn life lessons?  What about our kids?  How were we going to teach them all the things we learned from BMW?  Well that question may have been answered with this announcement?  Or will it.  First things first.  I think we need a pro-con list of what this show could mean.  If it's good it could be really good. But . . .

Pros
Pretty sure Ben Savage and Danielle Fischer will star as the girl's parents.
New opportunities to see the world through a girl's eyes and hilarity as Cory has to see his little girl grow up
Same hilarious dialogue
Same company making it.
Creator is  involved as he signed the Pilot deal!
Since it's been so long chances are it's not as much about making more money as it is about pleasing the fans of the show.

Cons
No word that Rider Strong or Will Friedle will be on the show.  Boy Meets World without Shawn and Eric would be the worst!
How many spin-offs have failed in our lifetime?  Many.
New Disney is not the same as old Disney!  We had Even Stevens, they have . . . um . . . stupid shows (sorry I'm not with the Disney times right now)
New issues.  How do they teach lessons these days?  I'm pretty sure they covered them all in BMW what could GMW teach us?  Would they get too controversial?
Who do you get to play their child?  I mean there aren't as many amazing child actors these days.  I don't wanna see anyone less than the best for this role.
They have too much baggage.  Boy Meets World was great because it was fresh original stories.  Will this be just a copy-cat?

I don't know guys I just don't know.  I don't want the spin-off to ruin everything I knew and loved.  I want it to be quality because that's what Boy Meets World was!  It was happy, fun, really funny humour and I just don't know if they can do that again.  What do you think!?

One Month, A Zillion Shows, So Much Time to Waste

It's almost here people!  That week we've been waiting for.  The Fall Season is about to begin!  Well, we do have some time to kill but I've been getting more excited by the minute!  Each time a snippet of information comes out I get more and more excited.  The will-they-might-they couples, the shows that could potentially end and/or fail this season.  The shows that left cliff-hanger-like and the shows that of course ended with a bang (take this how you will).  So what now?  Well lets talk first about the rundown of that first week of shows then go through and remember where we left off.  Everything I've been looking at so far has been supporting these days.

Always - Castle

Wow!  Ok ok ok ok I'm fine everyone.  I'm fine.  NBD.  It's all going to be ok.  It is,  ok.  Here we go.

Castle and Beckett are finally, after 4 seasons, together!  It's big news!  Kinda the biggest (or at least until Tony and Ziva get together).  I could bore you all with the facts of the mother's case but would you really want, or expect me too?  No so let's get to the important scenes.

Castle: Endure

We're almost there folks!  Yes it's that happy/sad/frustrating time of year when the spring finale's start taking place and we have to endure the long summer hiatus.  It's never fun and you have to rebound to your summer shows: You know the ones I mean.  The ones that you watch only to keep your TV side in line while you wait for the good stuff to come back in the fall.  Mine include things like, Rookie Blue, The Bachelorette, and So You Think You Can Dance.  BUT, before we get to the sadness and woe we get . . . the finales.  And if there is one finale that is being anticipated this season it is definitely Castle.  If you've been sticking around the world of Castle or Emily Landeen you know pretty much everything that's been going on but if you've been "hiding under a stupid rock" I'll give a quick recap (pictures included of course).

47 Seconds Promos

So basically the episode of Castle this week was really lame so we're not going to talk about it.  Instead we're going to talk about the promo for next week!  And What better way to do it than with freeze frames.

The Unknown

NCIS: Secrets


Woo hoo!  Episode 201!  We are on our way now aren't we!?  It was back to business for NCIS Tuesday night as a new episode entitled Secrets was aired and as with most NCIS episodes this was multi-layered.  Between the secret identities of some and the secrets others were keeping hidden from friends this was an episode to remember.  The main secrets of the episode (besides the case that no one cares about anyway) was that of one Very Special Agent Anthony Dinozzo.  His ex-fiance Wendy returned.  This girl is one fiesty creature.  A Journalist who does whatever it takes to get her story it is unclear why Wendy is back.  Everyone on the team is curious however, especially one Ziva David.  When she meets Wendy there is definitely some looks that transpire, especially from Ziva's end.  So let's go through this.  I'll begin with the Tiva scenes and then talk about some fun stuff about the case.
