Merry Christmas to all!

Yes, I'm still here and i'm here to stay. I want to wish everyone reading this to have a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year. I doubt that I'm not going to do anymore news or reviews till 2005. This will probably be my last one for 2004. Hope you all have a Happy Hollidays. I hope we have more fun next year like we did last year. Have a Happy Hollidays and be safe. VMM, signing off for the year 2004. OFF TO 2005 WE GO!

Mother of Wallace!

Another Friday afternoon! Just what I've been waiting for since the start of this year. At school, we went caroling at 2 banks and we had our party. Nothing much to say now. I bet you tonight will be like every other Friday nights i've had in the past. New "Puffy AmiYumi, a rerun of "Foster's" "Dinner is Swerved," maybe some "Danny Phantom," or "Teenage Robot." Some of them are at good times and good places and I can only get them in one place. All I can do till them is kick back, relax, and enjoy my Christmas vacation. "Why did I put this on the blog?" you may ask. Oh, I just felt like it. Just something to keep me busy before my "Cartoons" come on. If I see a good one, I'll tell you. What a day this has been; and I hope I never leave it!

Bring out the "Foster's" and bring out the best!

GOOD NEWS! This is old news, but I just found out about it. Cartoon Network ordered 26 more eppies of "Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends." It already ordered 26 before. The 52 eppies will make the 3rd and 4th season. So that means they already ordered the 4th season. I hope, someday, it gets a 5th season. So, so far, I guess the contract will go on till 2008. Since I don't stay with cartoons so long, I have a feeling I won't be there to see the end. Don't believe me, but here's what I predict: Foster's will might close down and Madam Foster dies of old age. I wish Craig McCraken (the creator) well these next few years. And remember: never cease being fans of "Foster's" and pray for that 5th season!

A "MLAATR" review

(As written on 12-10) 2 nights ago, Nickelodeon finally aired the "My Life as a Teenage Robot" Christmas-"A Robot for all Seasons." When I read a summary on Nick.com, I thought this one was gonna "lay an egg;" but I was wrong. It really kicked butt! Mrs. Wakeman, Brad, and Tuck were there; but I never thought Sheldon belonged there. I think it was for the best because in this one, he and Jenny finally kissed. It wasn't just any kiss, it was under the mistletoe. It was a mixture of "The Night before Christmas" and "The Grinch who Stole Christmas." This one is one of my favorite Christmas specials of 2004. I guess this one should get 5 stars. I especially liked the song. Very, very well done.

An early Christmas present

Well, tonight's the night we finally get to see the "My Life as a Teenage Robot" Christmas Special, "A Robot for all seasons." It has been 10 months since we've got a new episode. So set up your VCR's and DVD recorders. We will probably find out Brad and Tuck's last name. I'm guessing it's Carbunkle. It's the new world of Jenny; so don't miss it. According to the "Teenage Roblog," they said in 2005 that there will, one night, be 5 new eppies in a row! Let's just hope that will happen. You know how Nick is. Hopefully, they won't overstuff us too much. I will try to have a review up by the end of this week. Enjoy!

Have an "Ed, Edd, 'n Eddy" Christmas

(As written on Friday, December 3, 2004). Even though an ex-fan, I thought this one was pretty good. You know how some kids hate waiting for presents? Well, Eddy was one of those kids. He found the presents in the attic under a floorboard. When he found them, all he got was clothes. Clothes he didn't like. So he put himself up for adoption. He figured if no one in his family would give him a decent present, he wondered if some of of the cul-de-sac kids would give him one. One of the best parts was the opening. I liked how they did the opening credits. And, of course, the Kanker sisters were being their own kissy, girly selves. And, also, of course, Eddy was being his obnoxious self. Well, duh! All the characters were themselves. This was another thing Cartoon Network aired "tonight." This one get's 3 stars. It deserves that raiting for a, like I said, ex-fan. Still pretty good!

Teenage Robot Christmas

It has been determined that the "My Life as a Teenage Robot" Christmas special will be called "A Robot for all Seasons." Well, that's what tvtome.com tells me. The editor told me that "Yahoo Tv" was the name given. Oh, I just can't wait till December 8th that I feel like suing Nick for the rotten thing they did. They left me 9 months, Jenny-less. Hopefully, they won't delay this one, also, like what they've been doing lately. I also hope that its a good one, too, like all the other ones. For the new season, we just have to wait, because Nick just wants us to keep on gussing. For all I know, it's coming out in 2005. When it's one season after an another, it shouldn't be this far apart. Hopefully Nick will never do that in the future. And I hope we can survive through these days and like what we watch. Go Jenny Go!

A "Hi Hi Puffy" review

Tonight, Cartoon Network played a brand new eppie of the new series "Hi Hi Puffy AmiYumi." Now, where to begin? Let me start with the first part. It was when Ami joined the circus to earn money to throw a "Band-iversary" party for Yumi and Kaz. I grew out of circuses a long time ago; let me tell you. But I liked to see Yumi in her jammies. Then There's the 2nd part. Ami and Yumi try to make money to pay the rent so Kaz could let them in to their tour bus, again. They make money by working at a candy factory. When one of the machines malfunctioned, Kaz decided to let them in again without making them pay a rent. Then the third part was when Ami and Yumi decide to enter a dance contest on tv (as to singing contest, "American Idol"). They entered so that can own scooters. They won and entered, but instead, they got bobble heads of the host of the show. It was a rip-off for Yumi. Overall, I give this one 4 stars. I bet you this took a lot of work of t...

Hi Hi Puffy AmiYumi, GO!

On Friday, my team and I accepted this new Cartoon Network show called "Hi Hi Puffy AmiYumi." To me, it was very good. It's about these 2 girls named Ami and Yumi and they play in a rock band together. This series was created by this guy named Sam Register. I do not know who he is. If you actually have a clue to who he is, you know the score (e-mail me)! Today at school, we had our Thanksgiving party. During it, this boy started this conversation about this very show above. They were talking about the one called "Dis- 'I'm your biggest fan!' Harmony" (for fans, you know what I'm talking about). And this other one called "Ole!" It's about bull fighting. And thats all I can think about. I think there were more, but I cannot remember. I know it's been a while since i've posted a review (hence the site's name "Vic's Review"), but I will try to eventually. And for you new fans out there, l...

New MLAATR coming December 8!

That's right! The "My Life as a Teenage Robot Christmas Special" will finally primere December 8, 2004. Since February of this year, we have been Jenny-less. I was getting tired of seeing all thoes repeats. I know Brad is sexy, I know Tuck so hyper-active, and I now already know Jenny has super powers. It's about stinkin' time! I've been waiting all year for this. And did you know that day is the creator, Rob Renzetti's, wife's birthday. Nick's finally giving what's ours. They better not scare us again with that dumb ol' practice. So set up your VCR's and get ready for it. I hope it's good. If it's not, I'll start an angry mob in front of Nick Studios and chant "what's wrong with Jenny," or "me: 'what do want? People: Better MLAATR's! me: when do we want it? People: NOW!' " So, Whoes with me? I've gotta go, now. Bye, bye, everyone, and enjoy your "Jenny!"

iMucha Lucha!, iMucha Lucha!, It's a way of life!

Today at school, I was about to go to band when I heard someone talk about The Flea (One of the characters). The person who said it wasn't sure which show it came from. Then they started to talk about "iMucha Lucha!" So I dashed out as fast as I can and before you know it, I was at band. That was so I could not hear more about it. We would play so loud that we cannot hear them in the other room. It was a time of a lifetime. Once again, I will not forget about it. Speaking of "iMucha Lucha!," my friend Brad and I were doing the dance to the theme song my cousin and I made up, and I accidently kicked him in the butt. I even told my Talking Teacher about it. It was so funny. A minute I kicked him in the butt, he said "You and I are 2 'iMucha Lucha!' fans on the go." And there's also gonna be a "iMucha Lucha!" marathon on "Cartoon Network" on Friday. Keep an eye out for that. He also made up this equasion; Cartoon Network+F...

Did you know...

that if you do not want to say the long name of "Cartoon Network's" cartoon "Foster's home for Imaginary Friends (Why heck, I'm getting tired of saying that long name, also), you can always shorten it out? You can say "Foster's" or "FHFIF" (abbreivate it). Whatever your comfortable with works as long as the persons' you're talking to understand you. I'm more comfortable with "Foster's" myself. And some bad news for "Powerpuff Girls" fans Have you heard that your favorite show went out of production? I don't know when it they said it left, but it lived a good 6 seasons since November 1998. I'm really sorry you had to hear that. Like I said on the "Mucha Lucha" post, we can always find another grand cartoon like that in the future. But the good news if that Craig McCracken (creator of ppg) is still working on "Foster's" (another thing h...

Everyone should vote

I know this has nothing to do with cartoons, but I encourge you to vote this Tuesday. Tell everyone else to do the same thing. Tell your mom, tell your dad, tell your friends, tell lazy people, even tell people who do not care. Remember, if the people you tell say "ah, who cares," you say "I care!"

Finally, a "Danny Phantom" review

Told you I'll have a review up by this weekend. Last night, Nick aired "Kinght Fright," and I like to review it. It was a little duller than the other eppies that aired before it, but I did not loose hope for it. In case you didn't know, this was the holloween special for "Danny Phantom." I know it was action-packed like other episodes, but there was something missing to it and I can't seem to put my finger on it. There were also some parts when they showed how Danny and Sam love each other. That's pretty much all I can say about it. I need to see that one again. For now, this one gets 3 stars. That's the best I can give it for now. Maybe someday I can catch on to liking it. But the raiting is the best I can give for now.

It finally happened!

Ok, it's been a while since i've posted a review on this blog. But don't worry. Hopefully I have one up the end of this weekend. Now, let's get on the real subject. When I was in art class today, all I heard out of some boy was "Do any of you watch 'Teenage Robot?' " I piped up as I said in my head, "it's about time someone mentioned about that show." That's pretty much what I've heard about that were those only 7 words. I was speechless. I can't believe it took only one year for that boy to express his rejections. Mother of Wallace, I would just flip if I could say "I do," but our teacher won't let us talk in class. That was a time I would hopefully never forget! And I hope the "favourite cartoon talk" will last for years to come.

Be prepared, Foster fans!

I have a few bits of good news for you guys who are fans of Cartoon Network's "Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends." I was looking at the episode guide at tv tome.com, and one of my news is that "Foster's" probably got itself a 2nd season. And another thing, Possibly, there's gonna be an eppie were Frankie gets a boyfriend. Can't wait for that, can 'ya. And also, some news that will probably upset you. There will not be any new eppies for a while. On friday, CN is gonna show "Store Wars." Hopefully, they're not going to do what Nickelodeon does when they try to air new episodes. Just be ready for new episodes when they come on. Remember: don't stop loving "Foster's"

I'm tired of waiting!

On October 1, new eppies of "My Life as a Teenage Robot" were supposed to air. The night before the new eppie was supposed to air, I went to Nick. com's tv guide, and they said that The Attack of the 5 1/2 Foot Geek" and "Doom With a view" were to air. I was all like, "Your kidding, right.". So, the day it was it was supposed to air, I checked the "Teenage Roblog" for news. They announced that the new "MLAATR" was delayed by those Buggy Men at Nickelodeon. That was the 2nd time it got delayed. Why Heck, I, and the rest of the fans, have already seen those old eppies and we pretty much know all the words to them. If they NEVER show the new episodes, what would Nick do if all the fans got tired of seeing all those repeats over and over and over... again; and the show starts getting low ratings as an affect. Will they cancel the show for no reason like that did to "Zim," Or will they say, "Ok, the fans are getting ...

"Mucha Lucha " fans BEWARE!

For those who watch and favroite show is the show named above, I got some bad news and probably some good news. The season airing will probably be the LAST season to air. And I bet you are so sad to have had heard that news. But, If i'm not mistaking, there's hope. :-) Cartoon Network will probably play some reruns for a little longer (like what they are doing to "Static Shock" and "Ozzy & Drix.) Now do you feel better? But please, don't take my word for it. I cannot predict the future. I do not have phyic powers. But I'll tell you this. This series will probably stay for 52 eppies. Poor series. :-( I bet you the creators are very dissipointed that their show, their baby, will get canned! And I also bet you that they are just as sad as you. But don't worry! As cartoon lovers, we can find a cartoon just as "Mucha Lucha" was. And we can catch reruns on Catoon Network. God Bless Cartoon Network and the show, itself. The show will just ...

Ellerbee on TV

Guess what. During "U-pick Live," my Aunt Gertrude called my Uncle Joe because Candise was on (she's one of the hosts' of the show). Then, when he made it to the TV, none other than LINDA ELLERBEE, I mean THE LINDA ELLERBEE on TV. She was talking about that "kids pick the president" thing I keep hearing about. Then he's all like "Ahhhhhhhh! Run away!" I felt like I had to say something about that because it was all funny and stuff. Kind of sounds like A.G. was joking him with some woman he dosen't like. I forget why he hates her, but he just does. He likes Candise better than that... Like I said, kind of sounds like a joke, eh? Well that's pretty much all I have to say about that funny little thing. And thats the end of that! Or is it? Butch: Vicky! Myself: Okay! I'll say it. VMM signing off!

How I think of Rikochet's new voice

On September 11, 2004, WB showed a new eppie of "Mucha Lucha." But instead, it's called "Mucha Lucha 'Gigante'." And I noticed a change. And do you know what that change was? If you answered "Rikochet's voice," your SO correct. In the original series, Rikochet was by Carlos Alazraqui. In the new series, Jason Marsden provides the voice. If you know what happened, E-mail me. Jason and Carlos both do a very good job on Rik. But Jason's Rikochet does not sound as Hispanic as Carlos's. I mean, what do you expect? Like, believe it or not, Carlos provided the voice for the (remember) Taco Bell Dog. But if I were to choose between one guy, I would pick Carlos. Jason already scared away Frankie Munis who did Chester on Fairly Oddparents. And I thought Frankie did a good job on Chester. I like his voice better. If you know why Frankie had to quit, you know the drill. I like both of Rikochet's voices, even though they a...

They speak "Foster-ese!"

Today, I was at lunch and I heard these 2 boys talking about that thing thay have on Cartoon Network when they elect a cartoon character for president (if you watch CN, you know what I mean.) When one of the boys mentioned that Eduardo (that big, purple imagnary friend) was elected for president. Then the other boy probably knew who the other canadites were, but didn't know who Eduardo is. The other boy explained. Then thay started talking about Foster's eppies. They were talking about the episodes "Seeing red" and "Phone Home" (which is the only episode so far in the series with 2 segments insted of 1.) I was really shocked when I heard Eduardo's name. I can't believe they continued talking about Foster's even more. I thought they were gonna say bad things about it. That was the first time I heard someone at school mention that show's name and plot. That was the most shoking moment I ever had with "Foster's," and I will not f...

"Evil Con Carne" Review

On Friday, October 8, 2004, Cartoon Network aired a new episode of "Evil Con Carne," and I would like to review it. Ok, I don't know about the first half, but I have a feeling I will be focusing on the 2nd part of eppie. The eppies were "Mother of Evil" and "HCCBDD." The first half was pretty good, but I just thought it was just weird to be showing Hector's mother, who was pretty weird. And now for "HCCBDD." This one, I just have 2 words for this one TOTALLY WEIRD! Hector went out to get Ice cream while Ghastly invited Estroy and his 2 sons to a sleepover. Ghastly said that HCCBDD stands for "Hector Con Carne's Birthday mechine." (I guess that's right. If you've seen this episode and you know, E-mail me.) Now, don't ask me what the extra "D" stands for, I think the writers made a mistake, closed-captioning was wrong (if I had it on), or I have to get my hearing checked. But something that really feels ...

Nickelodeon is off the air!

That's right, folks! Nick is off the air in honor of the "Worldwide Day of Play," It's about when everyone goes outside and play. I'd love to observe it, but the problem is... IT'S RAINING OUTSIDE! Don't these idiots know what the word "rain" means. Maybe there's rain in some people's area and they can't play and they get bored. What can they do? If they watch "Cartoon Network," they can watch 2 eppies of Foster's Home for Imaginary friends, Atomic Betty, and 2 rockin' eppies of Mucha Lucha . You know what I think of who Nick really thinks who we are? I think they are calling us "lazybutts." At lease Cartoon Network dosn't think that way of us. Why Heck, they are doing 3 nice things to me. (see above). Nick, on the other hand, is trying too hard to make my temporary straight hair become curly and tangly because water makes it wet. I don't know wuzzup with those insane people at Nick; but if they wan...

Mucha Lucha Gigante review

The WB has aired a new episode of "Mucha Lucha Gigante" and I would like to review it. Like always, This is another ok for this eppie. The "Gigante" changes are still the same like the theme song and Rikochet's voice. It was just as " loco " as the past stories were. I really need to see this one again. But in the meantime, I give these episodes 4 stars. That's the best I can give!

Evil Con Carne and Scary Godmother Review

Tonight Cartoon Network aired an new episode of "Evil con Carne" and a Holloween special called Scary Godmother," and I would like to review them. "Evil con carne" was ok. Did you notice that there might of been some change in animation (i.e. Boskov seemed a little chubbier than usual, Ghastly was like a babe)? I don't think that that writing changed much. One of the good things are that the creator, Maxwell Atoms, is still alive and well and still willing to help out on his shows. I liked the second half better than the first half. On the 2nd half, it's not that I know my colors, but Ghastly's hair is really red. It's a real darn shame that there are only 4 eppies in that season. This episode gets 4 stars. These are really great for weird people like me. "Scary Godmother" was ok also. Unlike "ECC," don't reccomend this to your parent's, it's REALLY weird. It was better than I thought. One of my favorite parts w...

I did it...

and i'm proud! Today, I put up one of my very first blog and welcome to it. This has been a very big experience for me since early this year. I hope you enjoy this blog. This thing will be here for probably be here for the rest of my life. So enjoy it while you can.
