Atomic Betty "Halloween"?

I don't know where to start 'cause this is my first Atomic Betty review. Although this show has been mentioned about twice during the one year this blog has been around. According to the copyright date at the end of the ending credits, it said it aired last year (2004) so this rewiew is quite late. This aired during Fridays. They claimed this was a Holloween episode, though I saw nothing Holloween about it. It looked as if it were just a typical episode. Tajja Isen (Betty) was a guest star. Now I finally know what she looks like. She wasn't how I expected, but she proved she was Tajja "Atomic Betty" Isen none the less. Also, her singing's OK though (the singing was near the end of the 2nd 15 minutes).

As I heard, this episode of "Fridays" was supposed to consist of about all Holloween episodes of cartoons. There was probably some hidden holloween stuff in this Atomic Betty, but I could barely find it. I'm sorry, this doesn't deserve the whole 5 star thing. I did manage to get some "ha-ha"'s into this. I liked, in the second part, I turned on closed-caption and muteded it. While reading the captions, I just seemed to managed to read the captions a loud in character. That was fun until "Tajja's" song came on. I had to unmute the TV just to sing it with her.

The real rating: well, this is on the verge of very good and average. I'm gonna pretend to be a applause-o-meter and give this "whatever" ep. 3 1/2 stars (there goes that half system, again). Like someone on Independent Movie DataBase said, "pretty decent...BUT WHERE'S THE STORY!"

I don't watch this show as much as I used to because I so busy with stuff. And, of course, I'm not gonna watch it like at 6:30 am. It's more of a late morning-late day show for me. I like the humor of this show and how it written...this may not make sence, but the storylines just don't appeal to me anymore. I could tell from the begining what's gonna happen. When Betty has to do something on earth, she always has something to do in the galactic world. Not just that but 15 minutes is just not enough. We need the whole 30 minutes to see a decent adventure in space. I'm saying: the storylines are the same everytime. Good show, but we need a lot more than that (just as long as it doesn't jump). 3 1/2 stars is where it stays at. Yep!

My Thoughts on "Catscratch"

Originally written 29 January 2017 Catscratch Nickelodeon 9 July 2005-10 February 2008 Since "Camp Lazlo" (7-8-05) and "Catscratch" (7-9-05) premiered on night apart, I'd thought I'd post each review on the same day. Lala Lala La-La-La, Catscratch! Now that someday is today, let's discuss Nickelodeon's mid-'00s animated show, "Catscratch." Even though it's from what Nick might call their "Dark Ages" (times they wish to forget, one of the few shows that have not had a full DVD release or official release on streaming platforms), this show is quite excellent. Here are some reasons. If you were to have a single glance at the 3 main characters, would you believe they were cats? They may not look like cats but who cares? Sure the show had anthropomorphic cats but you have to see what they do. They take care of their deceased "kitty mommy"'s property and the adventures are quite interesting. Some of th...

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!

My Fair Smiling Mandy

Originally written 13 October 2016 My Fair Mandy Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy Cartoon Network 29 July 2005 Mandy is encouraged to enter a beauty pageant. In order to show her full beauty, she must do one thing one thing she doesn't usually do---smile. ---Vic's Review 13 October 2016 On this post , I said I might review this episode, so finally, here I go. This episode was full of that "you-know-what" Mindy and pageant moms using their daughters to live the dreams they wanted to have. I like how General Skarr was one of the judges. Toward the end, Mandy has her act singing her rendition of "Somewhere Over the Rainbow." She's no Judy Garland but the performance was really touching. Fans of "2001: A Space Odyssey" would understand the reference shortly after Mandy curved up her lips. The fact that Cartoon Network Fridays was hyping this at the time of the premiere and even making her smile again at all makes me want to bellow...
