For anyone who's read my blog, I've barely gone into discussing television. I did back when Reaper was on and about to get canceled, but since then, I've haven't touched on the subject. That changes today!
The past 2010-11 TV schedule was pretty good. No Ordinary Family, Hellcats, The Event, Parks and Recreation, and The Office were some of my favorites from the past season. Unfortunately, only 2 of them are coming back for another season.
The Office is probably my favorite network show on TV. When they announced last year that this was going to be Steve Carell's final season, I almost didn't want new episodes to come on because that would mean the end of an era. The season was average at best, but Michael Scott's last episode was something to behold. It was full of classic Michael Scottness like not telling everyone he's actually leaving the office that day and not the next. All of the moments he shared with the employees was touching, especially Jim's and Pam's. Not going to lie, I actually almost cried when he uttered his last that's what she said. I'm still going to watch the show for its 8th season but it's definitely going to be weird. I know they got James Spader to kind of ease the transition the from Carell but I don't know if it's going to work though. Time will tell.
Another show I like is Dexter. I've been a fan of the show since season 2 and I haven't looked back. My favorite season of the show had to be the 2nd. Not only because that was the first season I watched, but because I loved Lila! She's my favorite antagonist that the series has produced so far. I loved the Ice Truck Killer, Trinity, and Miguel, but there's just something about Lila. Maybe because she is a sexy brunette? That's probably it. I'll never forget rooting for her and Dexter to get together. I guess that would be my first case of shipping. Anyway, I was so happy when Lila got rid of Doakes for Dexter but then Dexter had to go and kill her. He kills her and then Rita goes and dies later on. I still wish Dexter/Lila would have ended up together. Speaking of Rita's death, was that not one of the most shocking moments in television history? I'm glad I was a fan of the show BEFORE that happened because my good friend Brandon had that part spoiled for him and he has never been the same. Anyway, Dexter is my top 'adult' show on television.
Now, here it is. The moment everyone has been waiting for. I'm a huge fan of the Nickelodeon hit series iCarly. Yes, ICARLY. I'm 20 years old and I love it. It's funny, intelligent, and it's wacky. I actually like ALL of Dan Schneider's comedies to be honest. He hasn't made a bad show yet in my opinion. iCarly just continues that reign.
I've seen mostly every episode of the show and I'm proud of it. It's a good show. So what that it's on a kids' network? I see posts on my Facebook all the time, saying that they're watching Spongebob and no one gives them trouble of it, so why can't I say that I love iCarly? Well, I'm going to say it now, I LOVE ICARLY! I'm, just like millions of other fans, patiently waiting for iLost My Mind and can't wait to see what happens with this Seddie storyline arc. Oh yeah, I'm a Seddie shipper, have been since iKiss so I'm waiting to see if Freddie and Sam will get together. I'd like to see it. I think it would add an interesting dynamic to the show. I mean, let's be honest, it was bound to happen sooner or late. They're all teens and I think it would've been unrealistic for them to keep going on without touching on their romantic feelings. Freddie/Nathan Kress is a lucky guy. I would love to be able to work with the beautiful and talented Miss Jennette McCurdy. I'm going to be talking kindly about her due to her being my celebrity crush. Man, she gorgeous. Anyway, why do we have to wait ALL THE WAY to August to see this episode? I know Dan doesn't control when Nick airs it, but, dang! iOMG aired in April. We have to wait 4 months to see what happens next? How long is the wait going to be between iLost My Mind and iDate Sam and Freddie? 5 months? Time will tell I guess. Anyway, the main reason I like iCarly is because it doesn't take itself seriously at all. Sure, there were some touching or serious moments in the serious, like when Sam and Carly almost died in iQuit iCarly or when Carly's room burned down in iGot a Hot Room, but the crazy wacky episodes outweigh the serious ones. And no one iCarly episode has been so serious where it wasn't funny. That's another reason why I can't wait for the Seddie arc. It's going to be serious but you know it's going to have that iCarly humor that we all know and love. So there is, I'm a 20 year old, African American man who loves iCarly.
