Introduction

My goal is pretty simple: I want to review every TV show I've ever seen. I watch TV obsessively, and with a highly critical eye. But here's the catch--I do not have cable. Most TV shows I review will be behind a season, out of syndication, and so forth.

I'm a teen who is too analytical. I rarely am able to just have fun, and this shows when I watch films or TV.

Just last night, I was scoffing at a Hollow Man character who was upset that another scientist wanted to dissect the animal subject in a completed experiment--because that was S.O.P.

It would be much easier to do this over Youtube, try to get on That Guy With the Glasses,  but let's face it: I suck at editing, I hate my face, and I have no friends who I can rope into being my face and editing my stuff.

I mostly watch TV post 1990s, Buffy being the oldest show that I've watched episode-to-episode. However, I intend to change that. I'm going out of my comfort zone--if my queue full of Mad Men and The X Files has anything to say about that. 

Why TV? 

Well, it all started when this little country girl from the rural outskirts of Nowhere You'd Ever Know, Mi was uprooted from her life in Nowhere, to a city I'm sure we all know, Detroit. Well, to be more exact, a city near Detroit, still affected by the complex socioeconomic--okay, I get it, I lost you. We'll just say Detroit.

My parents still wanted my sister and I, mostly me, as my sister was still in the mute phase of her childhood, to play outside. That was, until the combined incidences of a kidnapping from our apartment complex, and the police searching our apartment in the middle of the night like they already KNEW we were dead because our door was ajar at night, convinced my parents that it wasn't such a good idea to encourage me to go outside. (This incident also convinced them to move. Go figure.)

Best solution to this? Get cable. Hey, we already had a TV, and a laptop would have been expensive.

With Cable, I was introduced to a brand new world. I used to only watch TV in hotel rooms, and sometimes on rainy Saturday mornings. I was convinced there just wasn't enough content to keep me busy. But, between The Disney Channel and SyFy, my kid needs for entertainment were more than set. There was something new for me to watch every minute of every day; I just had to go find it.

Once this world was introduced to me, my parents never could take it away. Even when we moved back to Nowhere, Cable went with us. Of course, so did the recession. So we said "Goodbye" to cable, and welcomed Netflix Instant Streaming with open arms. I personally added Hulu to the collection, and sometimes Amazon Instant, just in case. I am your friendly-overly-academic-sarcastic-and-sardonic-neighborhood-girl, Cooper.

Welcome to my life. Because after all, if I have this much time for TV, I clearly have none.
