Work continues apace, with some overtime this weekend. I was planting trees! (well, putting them in a 3D model...)
This comic describes, in a way, what I'm about to recount, albeit about a different website. One thing I've never done much of is watch TV. Even while growing up, the TV was more of an occasional diversion. I don't remember how I got to it, but I found this video clip. I remember watching this series, and liking it, and I always thought it was a pretty unusual and fun intro. Plus the show came out after the summer of science: the films Weird Science, My Science Project and Real Genius all came out the previous summer.
By now I was in full nostalgia mode. So, some quick searches later I had found another short lived show, and yet another, one that had a much longer run (hooray!), aaaand even something that was fortunetally short lived. I even found this old skool intro, from the first season before it went all glitz (check out the judge in the executioner's hood).
Wow, interesting, not only to find them all (which isn't much of a surprise, I guess), but also that I had so many shows that I could remember 'watching'. Also interesting that I seemed to enjoy a bunch of shows that were short lived and/or changed format quickly. Amusing... did anyone else remember seeing or watching any of these shows? Or got any shows you enjoyed, haven't thought of in years, and will now head off to YouTube and see if you can find them? Share!
