Michael Jackson - Will Miss You

Can't help but watch the Michael Jackson memorial televised live at the moment. I really wanted to register for the tickets on friday even though it was unlikely that I would ever get a ticket to to fly to the memorial... (isn't that strange?)

It's very sad people bring out the fact, Michael Jackson was a pervert but he seems like someone completely messed up by his Father and while he obviously love his mother; he probably found her too weak to prevent the sadness in his love. So he gives more love than he could ever receive and was taken advantage of because of that unbridled love. I do not believe in the accusations against Michael Jackson because it wouldn't only be one person who ruined his entire reputations where you have lawsuits against the catholic church that amounted to dozens of individuals. Though I do not believe one can just settle a lawsuit to prevent criminal charges... what a sad world money trumps justice right?

Anyway. I just wanted to say Michael Jackson is the single person who has contributed more to good feelings to the African community worldwide than any other person in history. This includes Martin Luther King, Jr. as he simply was the figurehead in an completely American movement that simply cried out for anyone at the time. Sadly; I think he will be the only one in my lifetime to make such a difference in the world. I wish there is more people like him. Who else can contribute music that is more about love in people than just a love song for a girl/boy? Maybe except John Lennon. Never have I been to his concert but if there is another person like him... I will not hesitate in the future.

I should say the memorial was really badly done. I only caught a few minutes and befuddled when John Mayer performed guitar. I had to say that after watching a youtube clip of Michael Jackson's daughter; it just confirms how sad this private event should have remained private.

Krod Mandoon

I watched all six episodes yesterday at a friends house and thought it was hilarious. Kröd Mändoon and the Flaming Sword of Fire is probably the least inventive, least inspiring tv series out there that has some decent production value. The problem probably is the abusive use of sterotypes out there but it's funny in that it does not pretend to be a serious storyline which is always endearing. I liken it to southpark, family guy, american dad in quality but you can't get away with some of the stuff you do in animation without the jibberish nonsense thrown in for comedic effect.

Also quite frankly it seems kinda slow or that it went by really fast without much content that it could most probably fit in a youtube series more appropriately if it couldn't find a studio but the production would be much poorer... maybe. Very enjoyable to wind the brain down after a stressful holiday.

Were the world mine

is not so good on the small screen... Some movies or performances I should say just do not translate into the small screen for some reason. I manage to see it at a friends house early but it just wasn't the same. I am still hoping my dvd will be somewhat different so maybe I'll be surprised.

I caught Glee because someone recorded it but it did not flow as well as I hoped. Maybe it was over expectations once again but the story telling and background story is somewhat dull and uninspired.

I think I will have to blame this on rock of ages productions. The episode 8 was amazingly funny and worked well in every regards. I always like the references of scooby doo, title of show, doogie howser, dr. horribles singalong, and of course sWing awakening. Check out the episode 7 reprise and the excellently executed episode 8.

Why is Cupid 2009 still on the air?

I watched Cupid the tv series last week and it was pretty horrible. Today I catched a few minutes and it is worst to the point of intolerable... I finally tracked down the series which I remember watching previously that had similar plots and guess what? It was called "CUPID" in 1998. The difference between the old series and this new series is HUGE. Everything clicked in the old series and I was disappointed when it no longer aired but I do not have the same opinion for this new series.

The only disappointment is that the creator is the same so it's intened as a remake but where's the dvd release for the old one? Can't wait for it because it was great.

Moment of Truth - Lauren Cleary

Wow. I saw a little of the moment of truth on February 25, 2008 and I actually only saw Lauren answer question 15 in which time I stopped watching because it became a spectacle. It did not however stop it from being talked about on Z100 which I found out the ending. I was really glad I didn't see it cause I was so furious when her answer to the question "Do you think you are a good person?" was wrong?!

The radio talk show was talking about the process of become of being a contestant and I was completely blown away they could get anyone to go on that show. The request information from your previous bosses, ethics questions, family members, and like they ALREADY KNOW the questions that they will be asked because they were asked this on a polygraph machine before being asked these questions while being taped.

BTW. the polygraph machine is not admissible in a court and I hate these shows perpetrating the lie of the accuracy of the polygraph machine. Google polygraph and learn more but I was just completely blown away hearing about it.
