Very long-awaited belated Christmas Review

Teletoon (Canada)/Nickelodeon (United States)
22 December 2003 (approx.; Teletoon)

In 2005, Nickelodeon aired the Canadian animated television series, "My Dad the Rockstar." Each episode was aired except for the Christmas episode. I have promised to review it as soon as I've seen it (mentioned at the bottom of this post). I finally got to watch it once in 2011 then again in 2016. I will review this rockin' and heartwarming Christmas special here.

"Home for the Holly Daze" Review

Was there a reason why Nick never showed this and I had to wait years to finally see it? Well, it was worth the wait! That insane Hollywood-like director had no business glamorizing what was to be a simple Christmas pageant. It was good that those involved found a place to perform the pageant at the end. Rock sang an epic rendition of a well-known Christmas carol then later made up a pumped up introduction to the Christmas pageant. It got me pumped up! For the past few years, it's like Christmases have been pretty dull for me and the regular Christmas specials have been repetitive. Even though this is an older special, this sure breaks the monotony. This festively jammin' Christmas episode receives 5 stars. It surely was something different from the other Christmas specials on TV every year. This episode was certainly worth the wait! 

P.S. 110th post! 😃

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...

"Foster's" on Kids' WB?

I believe so. According to the Toonzone forums, It will start July 9. I'm not sure wether i'm gonna watch it or not. I guess the old saying is true, "be careful what you wish for, it might come true." I was wondering when the day would come. It's not even gonna last a year. Probably because K.W.B. signed the contract to where it last less than a year. Same with PowerPuff Girls (sister), Kids Next Door, and even Samuri Jack didn't last long either. I hope it doesn't cause the show to jump the shark. Like I said, i've been watching the show since the beginning. It started perfect, it better end perfect, or else. Kids' WB is more oriented for anime. Really and seriously, "Foster's" is not anime (no action, not from Japan). Cartoon Network and WB are both owned by Time Warner. Time Warner must be on crack. Ah, well, let's just hope that the show gets good raitings there and enjoy it while it last. Remember: Never stop being fans of ...

Goodbye to Bloo - Reviewed

Originally Written 25 December 2016 Goodbye to Bloo Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends Cartoon Network 3 May 2009 As I said in an earlier post , I didn't get to see this ep when it premiered. I found out about it the next day. Not even 2 years later I finally got to see the episode. Yeah, the week of 3 May 2009 wasn't the best week for me (for personal reasons). To this day I have seen "Goodbye to Bloo" several times and here's what I think of it. They tried to make it where Mac would no longer be coming to Foster's when it was something else entirely. This was how they ended the series. Even if I had absolutely no idea this was the actual last episode, I can tell it's the final episode just by seeing how the story proceeds and ends. Toward the very end, upon closing the episode, the ending made my mind flash backwards through the entire series, remembering the great and not-so-great moments that made "Foster's" "Foster...
