My thoughts on Roseanne
The series Roseanne really jumped the shark. After a few seasons of the show that represented nostalgia and the 80’s. John Goodman who starred as the iconic Dan Conner and patriarch of the Conner family saved the show for me. Unfortunately, the series is depressing and soul draining at best and energy draining. I know that the show is about a blue collar and working class family in the Midwest but still with too much of a slice of life can become depressing because the message that that sends is that nothing is going to get better and there is nothing that you can do make things better you can try but you’re screwed.

My favourite characters on The Simpsons
Moe Syzlak the bartender and underdog on the Simpsons is one of my favourite characters on the series. Everyone has an inner Moe Syzlak in themselves and i know that i do too and i have always seen a part of myself in this character who is voiced by Hank Azaria. Moe’s backstory is a very interesting one at that from following the series I learned that he was a actor in a fictional little rascal type show and then his career as an actor when according to Moe an alfalfa type had stolen his shtick of looking into a exhaust pipe and getting soot on his face so Moe in the show had killed the actor. Moe and his tavern contribute alot to the Simpsons show since many of the adults and people of the town of Springfield like to hang out at his bar and drink and i know that it is a long way to go just to say that a majority of the shows stories are set there. Before Moe became a bartender he was also an amateur boxer and his family as it was revealed in one episode that his family were the owners of a successful mattress franchise. The patriarch of the shows namesake the Simpsons that being well known to be Homer is always at Moe’s, no matter what happens at some point in the show Homer always says if the episode calls for it “I’ll be at Moe’s”.

Fock This
Fock this Enough is enough with meeting the Fockers and we met the parents, enough! I watched these movies because family members watched them but I never laughed once if anything it was cringe and really douchy. Ben Stiller should know better I mean his parents are the legendary comedy duo of Anne Meara and Jerry Stiller. Robert De Niro couldn’t even save this movie franchise I mean damn he committed career suicide along time ago and not even his roles in Mafia classics could save him. Legendary movie icons should have an unspoken rule that specifically says that after they make their iconic films that is if they are lucky enough to land the roles in question and that goes for Dustin Hoffman and Bette Midler who were the hippie parents of Greg Focker. Another thing is we get it their last name is a joke about the f-word still no laughter here but the sound of crickets in the distance.Watching these films if that is what you could call them I would sit and wish I was else where and doing something else other than sitting watching that just to be polite the best part of these movies was when they were over. The way this movie franchise was forced down our throats we have permission to take 2 fingers and regurgitate this out of our system. Another thing I want to address it is cruel when they kill the family pet for no other reason than a laugh, animal cruelty is not needed I mean this is satanic Hollywood where it is some type of sacrifice.
