The Originals

by The TV Guy

I was flipping through the dial when I accidentally came across this odd little show. For those who watch prime time TV and live in a substantial viewing market, you are likely to have a CW network. This is a younger viewer’s network; it has vampires and monster hunters and lots of pretty people playing all the hip roles. I often flip through and just go by because the shows they offer do not excite me.

I took a look at The Originals, a vampire show where all the beautiful people never age and they are in a battle with werewolves, but only sometimes because they have made a truce with some of them and not others. I think I am losing IQ points as I ramble on about this show.  I sat through entire episode and was quite sad at the end as the idea is all right but the execution was horrendous. This is a block of time I can never get back, but I hope through my words, that you will avoid this one like the plague.

Ugly Americans

by The TV Guy

In search of Disturbing?

In a quest to find something different, I let my mouse scan Netflix for something new. My attention was drawn to a brightly colored picture of a man and a “devil” woman. I lay my pointer over the picture, unsure of what lay beyond this icon. The promo talks about the characters in New York with mythical creatures everything from vampires and werewolves to zombies and other demonic beasts.  Social Worker Mark Lilly was responsible for assimilating these creatures into society.

Ugly Americans is likely one of the most disturbing cartoons I’ve seen in a while. It is wrong in an inappropriate and perverse way. But funny.  Really, really funny.  I could give you some hints but I would rather imagine your faces when viewing.

WARNING! No one under 16 or so should view this!!!!

Enjoy!
