Bigfoot and Wildboy (1977– )

Family fun in fantasy setting

[8/10 · 24 November 2020]

Like Shazam and Isis, this show is heavy on morality tales but does a very good job teaching right from wrong, the positives of listening to adults and learning from mistakes. Most of the episodes available on the net are grainy. Look for a quality dvd or probably VHS tape and most kids will have fun.

Adventures of Kitty O'Day (1945)

I had fun!

[7/10 · 15 January 2007]

I had a lot a fun watching both Kitty ODay films, they didn't take themselves seriously so why should we? The leads had wonderful chemistry which went a long way in enjoying the seemingly endless body count that they both had the bad luck to run into! It was unfortunate that the running length was so short. Had it been a bit longer, it may have helped add some depth to the mystery and some additional characters so there were more suspects to choose from. Kitty Oday walked a fine line on being loud and annoying but her boyfriend Johnny was able to reel her in from time to time. He was a great character, thrown into this strange situation and wanting to get out while Kitty jumps in deeper without learning how to swim first! I had never heard of these films until I saw them on Turner Classic Movies and I wish they would have made more.

Battlestar Galactica (2004–2009)

One of the worst attempts at entertainment to have reached the airwaves!

[5 November 2004]

This is not entertainment. There is no emotion, not from the actors, the music, even the set pieces. No interesting mythology or costumes. I actually didn't even know the thing in space with the lines on it was supposed to be the Galactica! Mary McDonald deserves a better project than this. Hard to believe it went to series. Nothing new or remotely creative here to bite into. What a waste of time and energy.What was so interesting about turning the Cylons into human form? I heard that the whole point of having no sound in space was to be more realistic. NEWSFLASH! This material was supposed to be a form of Science FICTION. No one cares that you cannot really hear Laser sounds in space But hey, if you guys enjoy it, go for it.

Freedom (1981 TV Movie)

Great!

I wish I could see this again. I saw it when I was little and it made a huge impression on me. It was so well done. I remember there was singing and I really wanted Libby to be happy. It's been over 20 years and I still think about it.
