Medabots (1999–2004)
Humor's there, Likeable characters are there, Good story's there, I'm there.
30 September 2002
I can't believe this anime has been around for over a year and I'm just now finding out about it! This series is great. The earlier episodes were very funny, while the older to recent episodes are very interesting.

"Medabots" is about a kid named Ikki (or how the closed-captioning person spells it in many earlier episodes: "Ikky") who buys a Medabot named Metabee and battle other Medabots while lots of stuff happens between and around all of the battles. For example: trouble at school, out of school, at home, or problems with the loser-posse known as the "Rubberobos." It's based equally on Medabot fighting, as it is on other interesting things.

Artificial Intelligence fighters in the year 2122. "Now _I've_ seen it all!" It could be a possibility though...

Beyblade (2001–2005)
Good series but has some flaws
15 September 2002
"Beyblade" is about a kid named Tyson and his friends who go/travel around battling others with their beyblades (a metallic top-like thing). That's what this series is mostly about and that's it's flaw, that and the fact that there was never exactly a clear explanation of what a "bit beast" was/came from etc. However if you look past those, it's a good series with excellent animation and original music. They should focus on more than just beyblade battling and practicing though.

Also, I see all of these toys being sold related to this series. I hope this is not just a big advertisement to sell toys (no big surprise if so, wasn't the first time _that's_ happened!).

I wonder how long they can keep this going...

Corduroy (1984 TV Short)
I remember this! I think...
8 August 2002
I remember watching a movie about a bear named Corduroy Bear and what happened after he noticed he lost a button on his overalls. This must be it. I can't find any other movies that were produced close to the time I was in first grade (when I first saw it). Pretty good frame-by-frame animation considering the year it was made. If only I could find a tape of this I'd be happy.

My rating if I could: 4 out of 4.

Hoze Houndz (1999– )
Great Cartoon!
28 May 2002
This cartoon loosely revolves around the misadventures of 6 fire-fighting dalmatians named: Steamer, Hozer, Squirt, Crystal, Brook, and ????, that happen to live in a cat & dog world. When I saw that this was on the Family channel I thought it was intended for small children. Boy I was very wrong, this is for anyone who can enjoy a good animated series. BTW, awesome theme song and original music. Check it out! "Hoze Houndz" currently airs twice daily on the Family channel.

Eureeka's Castle (1989–1995)
This was the coolest thing of the early '90s
20 January 2002
This show was composed of muppet type characters that did funny things and also taught stuff too. If you remember "Fraggle Rock" and "Muppet Babies" then you'll know exactly what this show was like. I think it's being shown on the Noggin channel.

Excellence at it's gist.
5 January 2002
This movie is worth checking out. Even though it's predictable, the events that happen as this movie unfolds are funny as hell. Especially the part when Eddie has the baby in his lap under his coat and the police are asking him whether or not he has seen any babies today. The baby lights Eddie's lighter - - the rest you'll have to see to believe. I rated this 10 out of 10 stars, and I agree with the first person who said "Drink your bottle of milk and enjoy this predictable film," because that's exactly what you should do. Don't take it seriously or else you'll miss the point.

What's with Andy? (2001–2007)
Funny and Great!
13 December 2001
Worth a watch, this great cartoon is practically about a teenager (Andy) and his best friend (Danny) who go around pulling pranks on the people of East Gackle mainly at his school, and they're always funny too! What to expect in an episode: Andy and Danny pull prank, everyone finds out Andy and Danny pulled the prank, everyone chases Andy and Danny down, Andy rips pants exposing boxer shorts, the end. Properly executed and creative cartoon, catch it on ABC Family (formerly FOX Family) until they change the schedule, weekdays 7am CST, and weekends 1pm CST!

American High (2000– )
One of the few shows FOX shouldn't have canned!!!
17 November 2001
The reruns that I saw in the summer of two-thousand-one on PBS were very interesting, seeing how other people live their lives, and what obstacles they had to face.

Now that I look back I wonder why FOX canceled this series, sure it does not have very much-- wait, actually it has no hype, but it's still a very good series.

If they happen to do something like this again, hopefully they will put some hype into it, it might make the show last longer. The idea was great, the content was good, I'd rate this show 3.5 of 4 stars.

7th Heaven (1996–2007)
D-a-a-a-a-yum!
8 October 2001
Yee-Haw!! The circus is in town y'all. Looking for a show with invalids, fools, stupid children, an obese mom, and an idiotic priest?!?! Well end your searching, you've come to the right place! Or did you stumble on to this show by accident? It's not a waste! All you need is several episodes on tape, a bunch of creative friends who have a great sense of humor, and a Friday with nothing planned; results would be unforgettable.

This show can be summarized with only one word: corny. The acting is so fake and unbelievable, and what's with the little girl she is so annoying. Writing is terrible. AND I think there's some brainwashing going on between the episodes.

Anyone who is paranoid about anything bad ever happening to them, don't watch this show-- it's breeding ground for brain tumors!

Friday Night (1983–2000)
Deserved a better time slot.
27 September 2001
This show came on late night Friday/early morning Saturday. If If NBC had put this show in with their Friday prime time shows it would have survived.

The Andy Dick Show (2001–2003)
Andy Dick does not belong on MTV; he deserves so much better!
7 September 2001
ANDY DICK DOES NOT BELONG ON MTV! He should move his show to HBO or Showtime. More flexible timeslots, and freedom to do more than what MTV is letting him do. Oh yeah obscenities un-bleeped also would be cool. I agree with the first person who commented about this show, Dick is a funny and talented person, he shouldn't have to prove this by only giving MTV ratings.

Go Fish (2001)
Interesting, and not very interesting at the same time.
22 August 2001
I personally liked this show, but I guess others did not. This show could have been a little better if it didn't focus so closely to Andy trying to get Jess' attention, but to other typical and funny problems teenagers usually have when they start Jr. High.

The Beast (2001– )
Canceled!
9 August 2001
This show premiered on ABC shortly, then was canceled due to the fact that it could not find an audience. When I watched this show for the first time, I was trying to figure out what was going on, I skipped an episode, then when I watched again I was still stumped. If they ever decide to revive this series, I wouldn't recommend you watch it except for making fun of the character that looks like, and acts like Sean Connery, but isn't him.

GREAT!!!
8 August 2001
This movie was great. I will admit this movie had me freaked out at times, then yelling at the television at others. If you are interested or curious for thrillers, vampires, and movies that take place in the past, this movie would be a great movie to watch. I rated this movie 8/10 for being so well written.

Mega Man (1994–1995)
Interesting.
7 August 2001
When I saw this cartoon recently on the Fox Family channel, I couldn't take my eyes off of the television. Sure this series is far away from the video game series, but it is still fun to watch. I give this cartoon 5/10 for helping me wake up in the morning with a few unintentional laughs.

Los Luchadores (2000–2002)
Bad but not "Power Rangers" bad.
6 August 2001
When I watched this show for the first time, I was gasping the whole time. It's pretty dumb, the only two good things about this show that make it somewhat interesting is the fact that the actor who plays Turbine is hot (despite his script), and there is a female character named Laurant who is always doing something useful. Unless you're a fool for good endings, this series is not for you. Check out reruns of "MST3k" on the Sci-Fi Channel instead, for bunches of good laughs.

Get Smart (1965–1970)
Great Series, but...
1 April 2001
I saw this tv series just the other day, when Tv Land did a marathon playing only Get Smart for 48 hours. This series started out great, with great jokes, and dialogue. But when Max got married to 99, and the show got moved to CBS's studios, it was never the same. The jokes got lame sometimes, and everything was different. I rate this series ****1/2 out of ***** though, totally worth watching!
