Just going through the latest edition of “TV Guide”. (<=== I know, incomplete sentence. That’s what reading “TV Guide” does to you.) It’s the “Fall Preview” issue. Usually, I can find one or two shows that look interesting or original. Not this time. Pages and pages of the same-ol’-same-ol’. Not a thing that looks as if it will still be around next fall. Maybe I’m missing something. Have any of you heard of any new shows that would be worthy of the old “MST3K” slot on my VCR’s recording schedule.
I used to watch TV almost constantly. I realized one day that I just stopped. It is more entertaining to read a good book. Or to play games on the web. If your computer can handle it; I suggest trying the latest computer game. Just look for something that looks interesting. Red Storm Entertainment, Sierra Studios, Dynamix, and Jane’s Combat Sims produce some of the best stuff I know. Lucasarts is great for the die-hard Star Wars fan (me). Give it a try!

Futurama: Top-notched programming. Make a tape of the show and watch it a few times. I USED to do that with the Simpsons their first 2 years. It gets better each time you watch it. Just like The Princess Bride.
I love Modern Marvels on the History channel. Infact, I love the History Channel.
Just when I think TV has become my own personal wasteland (so long Seinfeld, MST3K), I discover new treasures emanating from the bluish hue. This year it’s been “Futurama,” and the Cartoon Network’s wonderful triad, “Dexter’s Laboratory,” “Johnny Bravo,” and “The Powerpuff Girls.”
