<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>Before we get to today&#8217;s entry, I wanted to mention two new lists which are quite entertaining is the Buffy-Joss Whedon space. We have the <a href="http://alaskatoaustralia.wordpress.com/2009/04/09/were-nerds-buffy-edition/">Top Ten Buffy episodes</a> which is quite entertaining and then the <a href="http://www.cracked.com/article/166_5-reasons-it-sucks-being-joss-whedon-fan/">Top 5 Reasons It Sucks Being a Joss Fan</a>, which can make one a bit squirmy. Although I do love the first entry &#8211; <em>He Will Slaughter Everything That Makes You Happy Inside</em>. Please Joss, just stop that!</p>
<p><strong>Dana Scully <em>X-Files</em></strong></p>
<p>&#160;</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-231" title="Dana_Scully_closeup_with_glasses" src="http://godardsletterboxes.wordpress.com/files/2009/10/dana_scully_closeup_with_glasses.jpg?w=242" alt="Dana_Scully_closeup_with_glasses" width="242" height="300" />I always loved Scully. Mulder I found annoying, even though the logic of the show was that you really did have to &#8220;believe.&#8221; But sensible, practical, logical Scully always appealed to me a lot more. She was both a crack investigator and a <a href="http://www.ugo.com/tv/doctors-that-make-us-sweat/?cur=dana-scully">medical doctor</a> who didn&#8217;t flinch in the face of mangled bodies and horrible autopsies. What she did flinch at was Mulder&#8217;s weird theories, and even though he was often proved right, let&#8217;s face it, who wouldn&#8217;t have been with her? Her cool intelligence and sensible approach meant that she would accept the bizarre when proven, but she trusted to facts and reason.  She was also a positive depiction of a single mother and a professional woman, who was both attractive and, more importantly, highly intelligence. It was also Scully&#8217;s intelligence that was most important, not her looks.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>Well, another season down. This one had significantly more conspiracy episodes. Some of the highlights of the season were Scully&#8217;s abduction, Mulder&#8217;s &#8217;sister&#8217; showing up, and the revelation that Mulder&#8217;s father and the man who smokes all the time had worked together in the past. The X-Files project was reinstated(like we didn&#8217;t see that coming), one town practices devil worship, and another is full of cannibals. Good times. The season ends with Mulder finding &#8216;the holy grail&#8217;: a tape with proof that the government knew about the existence of extra terrestrials. He ends up finding a refrigerated box car (buried in a quarry in New Mexico) filled with dead aliens. Government people come in (via helicopter) and burn the box car&#8230;. Tune in next season for the exciting conclusion! This season snags a rating of 8.5/10.<br /><img src="http://bhorner3.files.wordpress.com/2007/11/x-files.jpg?w=684&#038;h=513" alt="" width="684" height="513" /></p>

<p><strong>this is a two-part interview from 2008 with actor gillian anderson, x-files&#8217; agent scully&#8230;as if you didnt know. i have to say, this woman is either a fantastic flirt, or just a terrific actor (or both?)</strong></p>
<p>notice the way she effortlessly interacts with one of tv&#8217;s biggest goof-offs, and seems completely approachable&#8230;all the while being hugely, gorgeously pregnant. i love, love love her laugh. until i heard it here, i dont think i had ever heard her laugh before. i guess agent scully wasnt exactly a cut-up&#8230;but agent mulder wasnt a laugh-a-minute either was he?</p>
<p>any comments about the x-files, scully, and any feminist themes of her character or the show are welcome. or&#8230;anything else you want to say!  i could google the &#8220;feminist themes of the x-files&#8221; and list some other bloggers opinions here, but i would rather know what you think. personally, i always noticed how the story-lines revolved around mulder&#8217;s life and his work&#8230;once and awhile they did a story around scully&#8217;s personal life, and it was striking. thats how i knew they didnt really do them a whole lot (sometimes you just dont notice these things until they are made painfully obvious?) remember the one where she gets a tattoo? (she ends up regretting it, and almost dying). or the one where she runs into an ex-lover in the hospital&#8230;and his daughter is <em>still </em>pissed at scully for the affair? </p>
<p><!--more-->yes, the three times scully&#8217;s sexuality is addressed on the show, once she almost dies; one was ancient history; and the third isnt really addressed at all, but for the fetus left behind by agent mulder in the last episodes.</p>
<p>i have seasons 1-6 on my i-pod, and i also noticed, when watching them sequentially, that scully was <em>always </em>getting kidnapped in the early seasons of the show. i mean really. how many FBI agents have even been kidnapped once, let alone a bunch of times? scully also quite noticeably gets a makeover sometime around season 4. gillian anderson herself has mentioned this makeover several times in different interviews: she says that basically, she wasnt paying attention to the way she looked, and someone in wardrobe was asleep at the wheel until they had been on the air for awhile and someone said &#8220;do you really want to look like that?&#8221; that signaled the end of the pastel pumps and shoulder pads, and the beginning of flattering hair styles and dark, unbuttoned, and fitted suits.</p>
<p>part two is below. enjoy!</p>

<description><![CDATA[I was watching the premiere of the new season of Fringe the other night, and man, that show is still]]></description>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p><img class="aligncenter" title="Monsters. Every home town has one. " src="http://i613.photobucket.com/albums/tt218/noirsparks/HometownMonster.jpg" alt="" width="476" height="293" /></p>
<p>I was watching the premiere of the new season of <a href="http://counter-force.com/2008/09/10/the-as-yet-untitled-marco-sparks-post-on-fringe/"><em>Fringe</em></a> the other night, and man, that show is still&#8230; it&#8217;s just not there, you know? There&#8217;s a nice little reference to<em> The X-Files</em> in the episode, entitled &#8220;<a href="http://www.hulu.com/watch/96337/fringe-a-new-day-in-the-old-town">A New Day In An Old Town</a>,&#8221; and while watching it, I kept thinking back to <em>The X-Files</em>, and <em>The X-Files</em> when it was at it&#8217;s height, mind you. It&#8217;s not hard to let your mind drift like that when you consider how decent the production values on a show like <em>Fringe</em> are, and how horrible the writing is. That, and I was still thinking about <a href="http://counter-force.com/2009/09/17/the-post-modern-prometheus/">the idea of Frankenstein</a>, and that reminded me of the episode from season five of that series, &#8220;<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Post-Modern_Prometheus">The Post-Modern Prometheus</a>,&#8221; otherwise known as &#8220;the black and white episode&#8221; in which Mulder and Scully go hunting for a modern day Frankenstein monster in the heartland of America&#8230;</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter" title="Not trying to alarm you or anything, but I think you have a monster in your backseat." src="http://i613.photobucket.com/albums/tt218/noirsparks/BackseatMonster.jpg" alt="" width="475" height="235" /></p>
<p>Though highly gimmicky, it&#8217;s actually one of my favorite episodes of <em>The X-Files</em>, both funny and weird, but still really getting to the core of the show. In fact, looking back now, you could almost say that the show did it&#8217;s fluffy light-hearted fare than it did some of the paranormal elements? Maybe.</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter" title="Season five fatigue?" src="http://i613.photobucket.com/albums/tt218/noirsparks/SeasonFiveFatigue.jpg" alt="" width="486" height="279" /><em>This is how we all started to feel towards the end of this show, but when it was good, it was damn good</em>.</p>
<p>I don&#8217;t want to say too much about the episode, other than it involves a Elephant Man/Frankenstein monster that&#8217;s not all that he seems, and who has a serious love for Cher, and it was from the season right before the movie came out. The season after the movie was an interesting one if, for nothing else, you could tell that Chris Carter was seriously bored with the show and just doing whatever he could to keep himself awake (examples being the body switching two parter with Michael McKean, which was excellent, and Mulder&#8217;s time travel Nazi hunting vacation in the Bermuda triangle, also excellent).</p>
<p><span style='text-align:center; display: block;'><object width='425' height='350'><param name='movie' value='http://www.youtube.com/v/FmDvAvuiPf4&#038;rel=1&#038;fs=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;hd=0' /><param name='allowfullscreen' value='true' /><param name='wmode' value='transparent' /><embed src='http://www.youtube.com/v/FmDvAvuiPf4&#038;rel=1&#038;fs=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;hd=0' type='application/x-shockwave-flash' allowfullscreen='true' width='425' height='350' wmode='transparent'></embed></object></span></p>
<p>There&#8217;s a whole fansite, called <a href="http://still-enchanted.net/mutato/"><em>Goodnight, Dr. Frankenstein</em></a>, and it&#8217;s devoted to just this episode alone. Very interesting. Good stuff. I&#8217;d suggest you check it out if you get the chance and as for Frankenstein, I&#8217;m not done talking about the monster yet, or the literary mad scientists who created it&#8230;</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p><em>(Season 3, Episodes 17-20)</em></p>
<p>These episodes were almost more fun than they had any right to be. No mythology and I didn’t care a whit. Instead, I got to see a lighter side of <em>The X-Files</em> with an incredibly playful storytelling technique.</p>
<p>The Pusher is one of the best characters they’ve come up with. Even though I never watched the series, I had friends who did, and sometimes I’d be at their house when it was on, though I was usually reading, writing or otherwise occupied. And yet, somehow, segments from “Pusher” stuck with me through the years.</p>

</div>
</div>
<p style="text-align:justify;">I think I am going to start this as a weekly trippy Sunday morning thing. I&#8217;m usual up early anyway so may as well do something semi-productive with my time.  So to start what I think may be the first of a weekly thing, two very contrasting musical styles this morning &#8211; John Denver&#8217;s <em>Thank God I&#8217;m a Country Boy</em> and <em>Good Morning Starshine </em>from <em>Hair</em>.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;">Both songs are products of the flower-power age of the late 1960s and early 1970s, but geared towards very different audiences &#8211; funnily enough.  Denver&#8217;s originally released in 1974 on <em>Back Home Again</em> and a live version recorded at the Universal Amphitheatre in LA, included on his 1975 album, <em>An Evening with John Denver. </em>It was the live version which was to bring fame to the John Martin Sommers song and went to No. 1 on the <em>Billboard magazine </em>Hot Country Singles &#38; the Hot 100, topping both charts for one week only. I like it for it&#8217;s simplicity.</p>
<p style="text-align:justify;"><em>Good Morning Starshine , </em>from a single from the musical (1966)/movie (1979) <em>Hair</em>.  <em>Hair</em> is the story of the &#8220;tribe&#8221;, a group of politically active, long-haired hippies of the &#8220;Age of Aquarius&#8221; living a bohemian life in New York City and fighting against conscription into the Vietnam War. The song however, is recognised the world over as one of those quintessential flower power type songs that, depending on your taste, provides permission to wear dungarees and bell bottomed trousers with tie-dyed shirts. It has appeared in lots and lots of movies over the years most recently in the Tim Burton&#8217;s remake of <em>Charlie and the Chocolate Factory. </em>Another useless trivia point, it has featured twice in <em>The Simpsons</em> &#8211; once in 1997 in <em>The Springfield Files</em>, where Leonard Nimoy, Chewbacca, Dana Scully and Fox Mulder all sing <em>Good Morning Starshine</em> (the later two being of X-Files fame); and the second in 2001, in <em>Simpson Safari. </em>I know it more for being in the movie <em>Connie and Carla</em> (2004) as part of the fight scene. So without further adieu &#8211; here goes&#8230;</p>
<p style="text-align:center;">John Denver &#8211; Thank God I&#8217;m a Country Boy</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><span style='text-align:center; display: block;'><object width='425' height='350'><param name='movie' value='http://www.youtube.com/v/kzldLJcorbo&#038;rel=1&#038;fs=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;hd=0' /><param name='allowfullscreen' value='true' /><param name='wmode' value='transparent' /><embed src='http://www.youtube.com/v/kzldLJcorbo&#038;rel=1&#038;fs=1&#038;showsearch=0&#038;hd=0' type='application/x-shockwave-flash' allowfullscreen='true' width='425' height='350' wmode='transparent'></embed></object></span></p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p style="text-align:center;"> <img class="aligncenter" src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2613/3852895606_037eae1b9e.jpg" alt="duchovny anderson y carter por ti." width="400" height="284" /></p>
<p>Siempre me han gustado las imágenes que salieron en la revista &#8220;Rolling Stone&#8221; (si no me confundo) de <a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000141/">David Duchovny </a>(Fox Mulder), <a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0000096/">Gillian Anderson </a>(Dana Scully) y <a href="http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0004810/">Chris Carter </a>(creador de la serie), en la cama. Menudo trío. Otra cosa es lo que pueda deparar el futuro de los Expedientes X. Por una parte la gran decepción que me supuso la última película me hace mirar con cara de perro cualquier otra toma de contacto con el mundillo de Mulder y Scully. Y por otra, la del fan, albergar algún atisbo de esperanza. De momento hay dos opiniones enfrentadas en cuanto al rumbo a seguir.</p>
<p><!--more--></p>
<p>La primera opción es una tercera entrega. En la cual Gillian Anderson estaría dispuesta a participar. Y raro sería que no estuviese David Duchovny, ya que en la serie los cambios de protagonistas (Robert Patrick entre otros) no cuajó como para mantenerla.  Anderson dejó claras algunas cosas en el festival de Sarajevo Film Festival. En la página web croata <a href="http://dnevnik.hr/showbizz/film-tv/gillian-anderson-i-agentica-scully-su-nerazdvojne.html">dnevnik</a> podéis ampliar la información (como no creo que sepáis el idioma, bastará con darle al traductor de google o similar). Que por cierto, Dana Scully está espléndida.</p>
<p>Sin embargo, hay otra posibilidad de que los Expedientes X sigan en el candelero. Un &#8220;Reboot&#8221;. Osea, una actualización al estilo de Star Trek. ¿Qué conlleva eso?. Pues que los actores de la mítica serie sean sustituidos por otros. Olvidaos de Duchovny y Anderson, con lo que ello conlleva para los seguidores de la serie. Puede ser que con eso se acerquen a las expectativas que la productora tenga en mente. Pero el año de estreno aún quedaría lejos, ya que hablamos del 2012.</p>
<p>¿Pondrán a Sam Worthington en el papel de Mulder y a Jessica Biel (por decir alguien) en el de Scully?</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>Okay, I watched those last two episodes of season one of The X-Files, so I&#8217;ll review the season as a whole. Growing up with shows like The Twilight Zone and The Outer Limits, I find the strangeness moderate. There were just enough political conspiracy episodes to keep me wanting more, with plenty of good monster-of-the-week episodes for filler. Many good episodes that develop Mulder and Scully&#8217;s relationship, namely Scully begins trusting Mulder more and more. And in the last episode, Mulder&#8217;s informant &#8216;Deep Throat&#8217; was killed off. Didn&#8217;t see it coming, but not complaining, he was a sob anyways. But they shut down the X-files program, so it&#8217;ll be interesting to see how they bring it back next season. Overall, I&#8217;d give it a 4.0-4.5.<br />

<p>Ogni tanto, torno indietro. Sembra che la mia vita mi costringa a chiudere i <em>files</em> ancora aperti. Naturalmente, sono tutti <em>X files</em>, che fa tanto Mulder e Scully.</p>
<p>Ogni tanto, mi sento come se non ci fosse futuro, ma solo un inatteso, continuo, snervante ritorno al passato. Stesse facce, stesse parole, stessi sentimenti. E mi annoio: naturalmente, mi annoio.</p>
<p><!--more--></p>
<p>Ogni tanto, scrivo su questo diario, illudendomi di avere tanta strada ancora da percorrere, nuove persone da conoscere e chissà quali mirabolanti avventure da terminare.</p>
<p>Ogni tanto, invece, mi dico che dovrei smetterla di <em>tornare indietro</em>.</p>

<description><![CDATA[I finally completed the task of viewing the entire series run of The X-Files. I originally followed ]]></description>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p style="text-align:center;"><img class="aligncenter" title="I Want to Believe" src="http://harrysdomain.net/XFILES/x-Filesimages/Poster2.jpg" alt="" width="200" height="269" /></p>
<p>I finally completed the task of viewing the entire series run of <strong>The X-Files</strong>. I originally followed the first five seasons as the aired on tv, even seeing the pilot on the night of its premiere. I saw the first movie, <strong>Fight The Future</strong>, in the theatres, and then jumped ship and almost completely abandoned the show. I viewed the second movie, <strong>I Want To Believe</strong>, in theatres last summer, on opening day no less. Hence, I decided after an 11 year hiatus, I decided I wanted to finish off the series.  Now that I have, here is my take on each season: <!--more--></p>
<p>Season 1 &#8211; I don&#8217;t remember a ton of the specifics of what happened in what order in each of the first five seasons, so I will just list my favorite episode from each of those seasons.</p>
<p>Favorite episode: <strong>Darkness Falls</strong> &#8211; Mulder and Scully investigate a missing group of loggers in a remote forest.</p>
<p>Season 2 -</p>
<p>Favorite episode: <strong>Humbug </strong>- the one with the carnival acts</p>
<p>Season 3 -</p>
<p>Favorite episode: <strong>War of the Coprophages </strong>- the one with the cochroaches</p>
<p>Season 4 -</p>
<p>Favorite episode: <strong>Gethsemane</strong> &#8211; the season 4 finale</p>
<p>Season 5 -</p>
<p>Favorite episode: <strong>The Post-Modern Prometheus </strong>- their modernized tale of Frankenstein&#8217;s monster</p>
<p>Season 6 &#8211; featured a ridiculously awesome mix of episodes focused on the mytharc of the show and &#8220;monster of the week&#8221; episodes. The run of episodes to start the season is some of their best. <strong>The Beginning </strong>picks up where the <strong>Fight the Future </strong>movie left off and answers some of the questions left unanswered by the first movie. It is followed by <strong>Drive</strong>, <strong>Triangle </strong>(an omage to Hitchcock&#8217;s <strong>Rope</strong>), the two part <strong>Dreamland </strong>(featuring Michael McKean and the Marx Brothers mirror gag), and <strong>How the Ghosts Stole Christmas </strong>(featuring Ed Asner and Lily Tomlin).  Overall the season seemed to keep up the quality I remember from the first five seasons.</p>
<p>Favorite episode: <strong>Triangle</strong></p>
<p>Season 7 &#8211; other than a few mytharc related episodes, it became quite light-hearted. Almost as if the writers got tired over drama and decided it would be more fun to be writing comedy. But it was totally enjoyable.</p>
<p>Favorite episode: <strong>X-Cops</strong> &#8211; the <strong>COPS</strong> themed episode complete with an alternative opening sequence</p>
<p>Season 8 &#8211; Mulder is missing from most of the episodes, replaced by Agent Doggett (Robert Patrick, the evil liquid metal terminator from <strong>Terminator 2: Judgement Day</strong>). The show certainly suffers from the change and loss of Mulder/Scully chemistry. Although I did enjoy the plethora of Terminator references, including the Terminator themed episode, <strong>Salvage</strong>.</p>
<p>Favorite episode: <strong>Vienen </strong>- Mulder and Doggett investigate deaths on an oil rig, and the chemistry between them works. So, maybe the problem with this season was Scully/Doggett was just a poor pairing.</p>
<p>Season 9 &#8211; Mulder is completely gone until the series finale. As a result, some of these episodes were a bit of a chore to get through, especially the first 11 episodes which all focused on the show&#8217;s mythology. I did end up enjoying the series finale quite a bit, due to its focus on clarifying the whole government/alien conspiracy of the show&#8217;s mythology.</p>
<p>Favorite episode: <strong>Sunshine Days</strong> &#8211; <strong>The Brady Bunch </strong>themed episode that also features Benjamin Linus from <strong>Lost </strong>and Bud Bundy.</p>
<p><strong>X-Files: I Want to Believe </strong>- the second movie, which picks up six years after the series ends. It is essentially a &#8220;monster of the week&#8221; episode in movie form. The story itself worked for me. Mulder&#8217;s mountain man beard at the beginning was a great touch. It features some excellent cinematography filled with brilliant snow-filled backdrops. Billy Connolly puts forth a tremendous perfomance. Unfortunaly, the same can&#8217;t be said for Amanda Peete and Xzibit.</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter" title="X-Files logo" src="http://www.eclecticinspiration.com/quotes/x-files.jpg" alt="" width="475" height="280" /></p>
<p>In conclusion, this is one of my top 10 favorite television shows of all-time. The first seven seasons are all quite high quality in their own regards. It&#8217;s worth it to plow through the final two seasons if only to conclude the mytharc of the show, which although quite complex and confusing at times, is still intriguing and makes more sense than <strong>Lost </strong>probably will when all of its secrets finally get revealed. And the X-Files managed to do something that I don&#8217;t know any other show has done &#8211; have an overarcing mythology storyline that runs the course of the series, while completely abandoned that storyline for episodes at a time to do self-contained one-off episodes. The truth was out there.</p>

<description><![CDATA[Television may rot your brain, and hulu may be hastening our cultural demise, but I’m going to make ]]></description>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>Television may rot your brain, and hulu may be hastening our cultural demise, but I’m going to make a confession: I still watch it.  I love me a good evening sitting on the couch, laptop on lap, watching a good marathon of something (I think marathons are the downfall of civilization).  Recently the blogosphere has been jumping with discussions of women in television (Little Junkies <a href="http://littlejunkies.wordpress.com/2009/06/02/tv-women/" target="target=&#34;_blank&#34;">here</a>, and Jezebel <a href="http://jezebel.com/5274600/20-feminist-tv-characters" target="_blank">here</a>)&#8211; and while these lists are filled with kickin’ leadin’ ladies, I think there were a few glaring omissions.  My 2 cents:</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-423" title="scully-1" src="http://buckingthewave.wordpress.com/files/2009/06/scully-11.jpg?w=220" alt="scully-1" width="220" height="300" /><br />
<strong>Dana Scully</strong>: X-files, FBI Special Agent and M.D.  She doesn’t shy away from guts, blood, and the risk of death.  She is fearless, a skeptic, and will only believe what can be proven through <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-9voHcXQbKU" target="_blank">science</a>; she can hold her own against Fox[y] Mulder.  Not only that, she does it without slutting it up.  I think we all can remember those shoulder pads, tapered pants, and pumps circa season 1-3&#8230;  She is smart, grounded, motivated, believable, and an excellent example of what good writing and talented actresses can do on TV.</p>
<p> <!--more--></p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-424" title="yves" src="http://buckingthewave.wordpress.com/files/2009/06/yves.jpg" alt="yves" width="158" height="200" /><br />
Related: <strong>Yves Adele Harlow</strong>: The Lone Gunmen, Resident badass.  Yves was the nemesis of the all-knowing Lone Gunmen and was always 2 steps ahead of these guys.  Ok, this show was only on for a season (tragedy!) but she gets to be on this list for her name alone (anagram for what?&#8230;.).</p>
<p> </p>
<p>I’m shocked and appalled that not a single Star Trek character appeared on either list.  Star Trek is near and dear to my heart, and so are these ladies:</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-426" title="kathryn-janeway" src="http://buckingthewave.wordpress.com/files/2009/06/kathryn-janeway.jpg?w=225" alt="kathryn-janeway" width="225" height="300" /><br />
<strong>Kathryn Janeway</strong>:  Voyager, The first female to captain a starship on Star Trek.  She united her feuding crew, completed the impossible mission which she was dealt, and didn’t shy away from the tough decisions.  She was empathetic and compassionate without being weak (see: Tom Paris, 7 of 9).  Yes! <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-I5WKLsUvgE&#38;feature=related" target="_blank"> Women can lead with dignity!</a> And, as above, without slutting it up.</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-427" title="Uhura" src="http://buckingthewave.wordpress.com/files/2009/06/uhura.jpg?w=223" alt="Uhura" width="223" height="300" /><br />
<strong>Nyota Uhura</strong>: The Original Series, Chief Communications Officer.  Not only did she provide a female character on the show with an <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lW7zEIkLeSQ" target="_blank">actual job</a> (ahem, Yeoman Rand, we’re all looking at you here), she was also one of the first black characters on an American TV show.  She considered leaving after the first season, but was convinced to stay by none other than Martin Luther King, Jr. himself.  Her presence influenced Whoopi Goldberg’s <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Guinan#Guinan" target="_blank">decision</a> to go after a role in The Next Generation.  Thank God&#8211; as Guinan is another one of my favorite characters from that show&#8230;</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-428" title="uglybetty_l" src="http://buckingthewave.wordpress.com/files/2009/06/uglybetty_l.jpg?w=225" alt="uglybetty_l" width="225" height="300" /><br />
Nothing drives a storyline more effectively than a worthy nemesis.  Enter: <strong>Wilhelmina Slater</strong>: Ugly Betty, Co-Editor-in-Chief.  She is one woman I love to hate.  Driven to a fault, Wilhelmina Slater knows what she wants and will stop at NOTHING to get it.  See also: stealing sperm from a dead man, breaking and entering, sabotaging coworkers, blackmailing&#8230;everyone, <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E_edtFYNWNU" target="_blank">cruelty to the elderly</a>, and so on ad infinitum.</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-437" title="081030_CSI_Willows_VMed.widec" src="http://buckingthewave.wordpress.com/files/2009/06/081030_csi_willows_vmed-widec1.jpg?w=199" alt="081030_CSI_Willows_VMed.widec" width="199" height="300" /><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-438" title="CSI-Wendy-Simms" src="http://buckingthewave.wordpress.com/files/2009/06/csi-wendy-simms1.jpg?w=300" alt="CSI-Wendy-Simms" width="300" height="228" /><br />
Having a solid cast helps too.  To that end, I would like to submit the women of <strong>CSI </strong>for your scrutiny.  Bitch Magazine blogged about this <a href="http://bitchmagazine.org/post/ode-to-the-women-of-csi-vegas" target="_blank">here</a> , and I have to heartily agree: here here says I!  <strong>Catherine Willows</strong>, former stripper, single mother, and current CSI Level 3 and Supervisor of the night shift, and <strong>Wendy Simms</strong>, DNA Technician and closet Astro Quest geek are my two current favorite ladies on this show.</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-431" title="tough-love" src="http://buckingthewave.wordpress.com/files/2009/06/tough-love.jpg?w=300" alt="tough-love" width="300" height="206" /><br />
<strong>Miranda Bailey</strong>: Grey’s Anatomy, General Surgical Resident.  “The Nazi” is tough, takes shit from no one, and knows her stuff.  She is confident in her skills and abilities, encourages her colleagues to step up to the challenge, and is a great teacher.  I especially love it when she does stuff like <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lm8dP2FFtuA" target="_blank">this</a>.  I think I keep watching this show because of the variety of female characters it depicts: Bailey, the wise; Meredith Grey, the lost; Izzie Stevens, the perpetual optimisit; Cristina Yang, the driven; Callie Torres, the badass; Arizona Robbins, the perky; and Lexie Grey, the shy yet self-assured.  Keep &#8216;em coming, Shonda, keep &#8216;em coming.</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-432" title="carla" src="http://buckingthewave.wordpress.com/files/2009/06/reyes.jpg?w=225" alt="carla" width="225" height="300" /><br />
<strong>Carla Espinosa-Turk</strong>: Scrubs, Nurse.  Carla oozes confidence.  She is the character I want to be on Scrubs, even though I’m probably about as put-together as Elliot Reed.  Carla loves her family, her job, her husband, her friends.  She is the perfect friend, she is supportive yet she will still tell you how it is when you’re in the wrong.  She’s so great, they even <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=erPwfDILyzs" target="_blank">sang a song</a> about how much they’d miss her when she went on maternity leave!</p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-433" title="i luv lucy" src="http://buckingthewave.wordpress.com/files/2009/06/lucy.jpg?w=239" alt="i luv lucy" width="239" height="300" /><br />
<strong>Lucy Ricardo</strong>: I Love Lucy, housewife and aspiring actress.  Not only is this show hilarious, it was wildly popular back in the day (and today, too. hello, TV Land!). Lucy, never one to be satisfied with the status quo, is always thinking of ways to try to get on Ricky&#8217;s show, even though she&#8217;s a talentless hack.  When she&#8217;s not trying to break onto the show, her antics are the stuff of legend.  Anyone who says women aren’t funny has clearly never <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4wp3m1vg06Q" target="_blank">watched</a> this show.  What more can I say?  <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=tw0D-Rv_vro" target="_blank">Go</a>, <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZlRRQ81ZRJs" target="_blank">watch</a>, <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gLdf8WwkMWw" target="_blank">laugh</a>.</p>
<p> <img src="http://buckingthewave.wordpress.com/files/2009/06/0000043362_20070924122712.jpg?w=225" alt="0000043362_20070924122712" title="0000043362_20070924122712" width="225" height="300" class="aligncenter size-medium wp-image-440" /><br />
<strong>Sarah Walker</strong>: Chuck, CIA Agent and Chuck&#8217;s handler.  Ok, she&#8217;s blonde, buxom, and stereotypically beautiful&#8211; but she&#8217;s also kick-ass and knows her way around an arsenal of weaponry and she would never allow anything to happen to Chuck.  EVER.  This is one fearless woman who isn&#8217;t afriad of a fight.  Underneath the hard exterior, she has a heart and I think it&#8217;s melting for Chuck (can you blame her?).</p>
<p> </p>
<p>And that’s my list ladies and gents.  What thinks ye? Who would you add?</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>After posting the <em><a href="http://iknowwhatsucks.wordpress.com/2009/05/28/funniest-thing-on-the-internet/">Funniest Thing on the Internet</a></em> (our tribute to hot 90’s men), we started thinking about the leading ladies of 90’s small screen fame. </p>
<p><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-277" title="90's Hotties" src="http://iknowwhatsucks.wordpress.com/files/2009/05/90swomen.jpg" alt="90's Hotties" width="600" height="250" /></p>
<p>We found a few common denominators in being a hot 1990’s woman:</p>
<ul>
<li>Brown Lipstick</li>
<li>Bob haircut</li>
<li>Red tint in hair</li>
<li>Matte makeup on the face</li>
<li>Unnaturally white skin</li>
<li>Neutral colored clothing</li>
</ul>
<p>Basically, these ladies were getting their earth-tone on all over the place (and working it)!  We need some classy ladies like this back on TV now!</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p style="text-align:left;">Pense nas dez séries mais premiadas da história do Globo de Ouro. Arriscaria um palpite? Seinfeld? Six Feet Under? Com certeza não. Arquivo X? Sopranos? Sim, sim, talvez. M*A*S*H? Definitivamente!</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><img class="size-medium wp-image-162 aligncenter" title="globodeouro2" src="http://pedrobeck.wordpress.com/files/2009/04/globodeouro2.jpg?w=195" alt="globodeouro2" width="195" height="300" /></p>
<p>Pesquisando os prêmios do Globo de Ouro, imaginem minha surpresa ao descobrir que M*A*S*H, com nada menos do que oito estatuetas, encabeça ao lado de Sex and the City e All in the Family (!), a lista das séries mais vencedoras da premiação que incluem programas para lá de bizarros como, por exemplo, o The Carol Burnett Show. Oito estatuetas pode parecer pouco para as três séries mais vitoriosas do Globo de Ouro, mas se pensarmos que a premiação tem bem menos categorias para televisão do que o Emmy e que em algumas categorias ainda concorre junto com o cinema (como os coadjuvantes), oito acaba se tornando um bom número.</p>
<p>O Globo de Ouro é uma premiação norte-americana criada em 1944 que visa premiar os melhores filmes e os melhores programas de televisão do ano. Não é a toa que é considerado uma prévia do Oscar: a audiência e sua tradição perdem apenas para a festinha dos tios da Academia e para o Grammy, respectivamente. A premiação, que tradicionalmente acontece no começo de todo ano, é baseada quase que por completo, nos votos de mais de 80 veículos jornalísticos de Hollywood.</p>
<p>Apesar do primeiro Globo de Ouro ter sido em 1943 e ter ido parar nos estúdios da 20th Century Fox, foram apenas 12 anos depois, em 1956, que surgiram na cerimônia os prêmios para os melhores da televisão. Porém, a coisa era ainda um pouco confusa, com prêmios diferentes a cada ano, sem um padrão ano após anos. Apenas em 1970, foi estabelecido o conceito que conhecemos hoje, o de Melhor Drama, Comédia/Musical, Ator, Atriz, Ator e Atriz coadjuvante. Ou seja, pode-se dizer que a história do Globo de Ouro para os aficionados por televisão tem apenas 39 anos.</p>
<p>Partindo desse princípio, criei uma lista com as dez séries mais vitoriosas de todos os tempos (que na verdade são 11 – calma aí que já explico) na categoria televisão. Saiba qual foi a primeira série a ganhar o prêmio, qual série mais ganhou, com quem ela concorria, quais eram as expectativas e muito mais!</p>
<p><strong>Sopranos, Arquivo X, L.A. Law, Dinastia, Alice e The Carol Burnett Show</strong></p>
<p>Em último lugar, com cinco votos para cada, temos seis séries. Com isso, o TOP 10 acaba virando TOP 11, pois acima dessas seis, empatadas, temos cinco séries com mais do que cinco estatuetas.</p>
<p><strong>The Carol Burnett Show</strong></p>
<p><strong><img class="size-full wp-image-143 aligncenter" title="thecarolburnettshow" src="http://pedrobeck.wordpress.com/files/2009/04/thecarolburnettshow.gif" alt="thecarolburnettshow" width="250" height="338" /></strong></p>
<p>De todas as dez séries, a primeira a ganhar o prêmio de melhor série (no caso programa) foi The Carol Burnett Show, em 1971, humorístico ao vivo &#8211; diferente da maioria dos programas da época que eram pré-gravados) apresentado por Carol Burnett, Tim Conway, Harvey Korman, Vicki Lawrence e Lyle Waggoner que levou ao ar originalmente na CBS 278 episódios entre 1967 a 1978.</p>
<p>O programa, longe de revolucionário, era até bem bacana e apresentou alguns quadros inesquecíveis como “Went with the Wind”, paródia de &#8220;E O Vento Levou&#8221; onde Burnett representava Scarlett O’Hara.</p>
<p>A série original acabou tendo outras versões caça-níqueis como &#8220;Carol Burnett and Friends&#8221; e &#8220;Carol &#38; Company&#8221;, duas tentativas frustradas por parte da CBS e NBC, respectivamente, de repetir o sucesso do original. Em 1991, a CBS ainda tentou fazer um revival do programa, trazendo-o de volta para uma nova temporada. Resultado? Fracasso absoluto e apenas nove episódios exibidos.</p>
<p>Em seu auge, The Carol Burnett Show, que chegou a ter participações muito especiais como as de Shirley MacLaine, Liza Minelli, Cher e Vincent Price, era difícil de ser batida. Com cinco Globo de Ouro debaixo do braço, ganhou consecutivamente o prêmio de melhor atriz de comédia em 77 e 78 e também consecutivamente o prêmio de melhor ator coadjuvante 75 e 76.</p>
<p>Apesar dos cinco prêmios na bagagem, a estatueta de Melhor Série de Comédia foi levada pelos comediantes apenas em 1971, mesmo ano em que a série Missão: Impossível estrelada por Martin Landau sagrava-se vitoriosa em Melhor Drama.</p>
<p><strong>Alice</strong></p>
<p><strong><img class="size-full wp-image-144 aligncenter" title="alice" src="http://pedrobeck.wordpress.com/files/2009/04/alice.jpg" alt="alice" width="320" height="240" /></strong></p>
<p>Exibida pela primeira vez em 1976, Alice foi uma sitcom de grande sucesso. Estrelado por Linda Lavin no papel-título e exibida pela CBS, era baseada no filme vencedor do Oscar de Melhor Atriz, Alice Não Mora Mais Aqui, de 1974.</p>
<p>Alice contava a historia de uma mulher que após a perda de seu marido, resolve sair de New Jersey com seu filho e viajar de carro para Los Angeles, na esperança de se tornar uma cantora de sucesso. Com o carro quebrado em Phoenix e sem dinheiro para o conserto, Alice arruma um emprego como garçonete na lanchonete Mel&#8217;s Diner e de lá só sairia novamente em 2 de julho de 1985, quando foi ao ar o último episódio da série.</p>
<p>Mesmo com a forte concorrência da antológica série Taxi, que venceu o Globo de Ouro três vezes consecutivas de 1979 a 1981 na categoria Melhor Série de Comédia, Alice não se intimidou, “roubou” metade do Globo de Ouro de 1980, quando ao lado da série de Andy Kaufman, também consagrou-se vencedora na categoria Melhor Comédia.</p>
<p>No ano anterior, 1979, apesar de Taxi ter faturado o prêmio de melhor série, foi Alice quem faturou o de melhor atriz e melhor atriz coadjuvante. No primeiro prêmio, Linda Lavin desbancou a própria Carol Barnett, favorita naquele ano. Já na segunda estatueta, Polly Holliday, que concorria por sua popular personagem Flo em Alice, desbancou Marilu Henner, uma das protagonistas de Taxi.</p>
<p>Voltando para 1980, a história parecia fadada a se repetir. Na categoria de Melhor Série, que Taxi ganhava pela segunda vez consecutiva, também concorriam entre outras, Alice e M*A*S*H. Mas se Taxi desbancou M*A*S*H, Alice desbancou Taxi. E novamente nas categorias de Melhor Atriz e Melhor Atriz Coadjuvante. Dessa vez, o páreo de Linda Lavin era acirrado: de um lado, Jean Stapleton, protagonista de All in the Family, do outro, Loretta Swit, a major Margaret Houlihan de M*A*S*H. Já na categoria coadjuvante, novamente Polly Holliday contra Marilu Henner. E novamente deu Holliday.</p>
<p><strong>Dynasty</strong></p>
<p><strong><img class="size-medium wp-image-146 aligncenter" title="dynasty1" src="http://pedrobeck.wordpress.com/files/2009/04/dynasty1.jpg?w=300" alt="dynasty1" width="300" height="180" /></strong></p>
<p>Um dos maiores equívocos da televisão é a soap opera (mais novela do que seriado – vide Desperate Housewives) Dinastia, famosa por seus cliffhangers e erros de continuidade.</p>
<p>Exibida pela ABC de 1981 a 1989, Dinastia tinha seus conflitos em torno de duas famílias de Denver, Colorado que se odiavam: Carringtons e Colbys.</p>
<p>A primeira temporada teve audiência consistente, mas foi apenas no segundo ano da série, mais especificamente em sua<em> season premiere</em>, que Dinasty decolou, abrindo com o episódio “Enter Alexis”, um clássico, onde o personagem misterioso da primeira temporada retirava seus óculos escuros revelando a atriz inglesa Joan Collins (muito Ugly Betty, isso).</p>
<p>Alguns episódios depois a série já estava no topo da audiência figurando sempre no Top 20 da Nielsen. Em 1985, na quinta temporada, alcançou o apogeu conquistando o primeiro lugar na audiência e ganhando convidados para lá de luxuosos como o ex-presidente americano Gerald Ford &#8211; também não é para tanto, nos EUA tudo quanto é político participa de seriado. Mas na mesma velocidade em que os números subiram, eles declinaram: com o revival de comédias que se estabelecia na época (Cosby Show, Cheers etc.) Dynastia acabou perdendo o primeiro lugar para nunca mais voltar ao topo.</p>
<p>Apesar de todos os altos e baixos, a série teve uma carreira de sucesso nos Globo de Ouro. Levou cinco estatuetas para casa, incluindo a de Melhor Série de Drama em 1984, quando bateu a concorrência de Hill Street Blues &#8211; vencedora nos dois anos anteriores. O grande feito da novelinha talvez tenha sido conquistar estatuetas em três anos seguidos – 1982-1984. Em 82, Linda Evans deu o primeiro troféu da premiação ao programa ao vencer o prêmio de Melhor Atriz em Drama empatada com Barbara Bel Geddes, sua concorrente direta em Dallas. 1983, era uma incógnita: com grandes séries como M*A*S*H, Hill Street Blues, Dallas, Magnum, Cheers e Fame na disputa, Dynastia saiu no lucro ao levar para casa duas estatuetas: as de melhor ator e atriz de drama para John Forsythe e Joan Collins, respectivamente.</p>
<p>Em 1984, além do prêmio de Melhor Drama do ano, John Forsythe viria a ser coroado novamente como melhor ator do ano em drama.</p>
<p>Sua grande contribuição para a TV foi o surgimento de um personagem gay &#8211; que tinha até amante &#8211; em uma trama noturna de grande audiência, fazendo com que as pessoas olhassem para a situação dos gays em plena era da AIDS.</p>
<p><strong>L.A. Law</strong></p>
<p><strong><img class="size-medium wp-image-147 aligncenter" title="lalaw" src="http://pedrobeck.wordpress.com/files/2009/04/lalaw.jpg?w=300" alt="lalaw" width="300" height="207" /></strong></p>
<p>Criada por Steven Bochco, criador de Nova York Contra o Crime (NYPD Blue), L.A. Law pode ser considerada a mãe das séries de tribunal e sem dúvida, dá um show em qualquer criação de David E. Kelley, que participou aqui como escritor e produtor executivo e alcançou a glória com Emmys de Melhor Roteiro em 1990 e 91.</p>
<p>Vencedora de cinco estatuetas do Globo de Ouro, a série teve uma longa duração de nove temporadas e é considerada até hoje uma das séries mais populares do final da década de 80, início da de 90.</p>
<p>Mostrando o dia-a-dia de uma firma de direito de Los Angeles, a série deu bastante sorte em 87 e 88 quando venceu consecutivamente o prêmio de Melhor Drama do ano barrando concorrentes como Murder, She Wrote, drama/suspense que havia vencido também consecutivamente o prêmio de melhor série de drama nos dois anos anteriores.</p>
<p>Ainda no ano de 1988, talvez na maior zebra daquele ano, L.A. Law consagrou a atriz Susan Dey, vencedora do prêmio de Melhor Atriz de Drama, batendo a favorita da noite, Angela Lansbury (de Murder, She Wrote). Já em 1989, a historia se fadava a repetir e Jill Eikenberry acaba saindo-se a grande vencedora da noite na mesma categoria, batendo de novo Lansbury.</p>
<p>1990 e 1991 foram os grandes anos de Cheers e Twin Peaks e L.A. Law acabou saindo um pouco dos holofotes. Apenas em 1992 a série retornou como favorita em alguma indicação: Amanda Donohoe levou a estatueta de Melhor Atriz Coadjuvante, derrotando as protagonistas de The Golden Girls e Cheers.</p>
<p>L.A. Law durou até 1994 e acumulou diversos prêmios em sua bagagem, incluindo três Emmys consecutivos de Melhor Série de Drama entre 1989 e 1991.</p>
<p>Quem já viu L.A. Law sabe que David E. Kelley vem copiando pequenas coisas da série em todas as séries.</p>
<p><strong>Arquivo X</strong></p>
<p><strong><img class="size-medium wp-image-148 aligncenter" title="arquivox" src="http://pedrobeck.wordpress.com/files/2009/04/arquivox.jpg?w=300" alt="arquivox" width="300" height="240" /></strong></p>
<p>Arquivo X, uma das grandes séries de todos os tempos, é uma criação de Chris Carter e foi ao ar pela primeira vez em setembro de 1993. O seriado é considerado um dos primeiros hits da Fox americana e ficou famoso por emplacar slogans mundialmente famosos na cultura pop como &#8220;The Truth Is Out There&#8221;, &#8220;Trust No One&#8221;, &#8220;Deny Everything&#8221; e &#8220;I Want to Believe&#8221;, como Heroes hoje em dia com o seu precoce “Save the cheerleader, save the world!”.</p>
<p>A série rodava em torno da vida dos agentes Fox Mulder (David Duchovny) e Dana Scully (Gillian Anderson), responsáveis pelas investigações dos chamados “arquivos x”, arquivos marginalizados pelo FBI devido a seu conteúdo paranormal. Duchovny fazia o papel do agente de mente aberta enquanto a personagem de Anderson havia sido originalmente transferida para o departamento para investigar as ações do trabalho inconvencional de Mulder. Apenas originalmente, pois mais tarde eles acabam virando parceiros, amigos e, bem&#8230; marido e mulher.</p>
<p>O auge da série foi no meio dos anos 90 e depois de cinco temporadas a série ainda gerou um filme de sucesso (“Arquivo X: O Filme”) para depois encerrar com mais quatro temporadas e um outro filme: &#8220;Arquivo X: I Want to Believe&#8221;. Nas duas últimas temporadas, a série teve um significante declínio, principalmente pelo esgotamento criativo dos roteiristas que não sabiam mais onde levar aquelas personagens e pela vontade de Duchovny de sair da série para se dedicar a sua carreira no cinema.</p>
<p>Na época de seu episodio final, em maio de 2002, Arquivo X era em toda a história, a série de ficção cientifica a mais tempo no ar (nove temporadas e 201 episódios) mas eventualmente perdeu o posto para Stargate SG-1. É considerada pelo TV Guide como a série de maior culto de todos os tempos, atrás apenas da franquia Star Trek. Estamos falando de um culto americano, pois mundialmente falando, perderia para Dr. Who e O Prisioneiro.</p>
<p>A carreira de Arquivo X no Globo de Ouro teve quatro anos de duração, sendo que em três, sendo eles 1995, 97 e 98, a série saiu-se vitoriosa na categoria Melhor Série de Drama. Em 95, a concorrência não era lá essas coisas e a série só teve que passar por cima de ER.</p>
<p>Em 97, houve a grande consagração da série, que levou para a Fox os três mais importantes prêmios da noite. Na categoria de melhor drama, 95 se repetiu, só que aqui a disputa foi mais apertada, mas não com ER e sim com Party Of Five que havia vencido na categoria no ano anterior. Em Melhor Ator, Duchovny passou de bom ator para grande celebridade do ano ao vencer ninguém menos do que George Clooney que concorria por ER. Interessante aqui, é que quem também concorria na categoria, era Lance Henriksen, protagonista de Millennium, série também criada por Carter. Já em Melhor Atriz, Gillian superou a incrível Christine Lahti que começava a se destacar por seu papel em Chicago Hope. Um dia inesquecível para qualquer “excer”.</p>
<p>O final ainda estava longe, assim como seu declínio, mas 98 chegou e foi o último ano que ganhou alguma coisa na premiação. Sem os prêmios de Melhor Ator e Atriz, parecia que Arquivo X sairia com as mãos abanando, já que dessa vez era a série que corria por fora no prêmio de Melhor Drama enquanto ER e Law &#38; Order disputavam os holofotes. Doce engano. Somava ali, sua quinta e última estatueta na premiação.</p>
<p><strong>The Sopranos</strong></p>
<p><strong><img class="size-medium wp-image-149 aligncenter" title="sopranos" src="http://pedrobeck.wordpress.com/files/2009/04/sopranos.jpg?w=300" alt="sopranos" width="300" height="188" /></strong></p>
<p>Uma das séries mais importantes dos últimos anos The Sopranos é ambientada na terrível New Jersey. O seriado mostra o dia-a-dia de Tony Soprano (James Gandolfini), ítalo-americano que tem como desafio comandar duas famílias. De um lado, sua mulher, seu filho e sua filha. Do outro, a máfia. Grande marco da HBO ao lado de Six Feet Under, a série estreou no final da década de 1990 para no ano seguinte já conquistar quatro estatuetas do Globo de Ouro.</p>
<p>Desde que foi ao ar em 1999, o seriado se tornou um fenômeno cultural ganhando popularidade pelo mundo ao mostrar com exatidão a comunidade ítalo-americana, os efeitos da violência e a tênue linha que divide o certo e o errado na sociedade.</p>
<p>Além da notável habilidade de atuação por parte do elenco, alguns atores também se destacam por um lado mais negativo: o de quando a vida imita a arte. Como exemplo, o ator Robert Iler, que da vida a Anthony Jr., que em 2001, foi preso por assaltar à mão armada dois turistas brasileiros. O ator foi condenado a quinze anos de prisão, mas por ser menor de idade e ter alegado culpa, ganhou uma condicional de três anos.</p>
<p>Sopranos começou com o pé direito no Globo de Ouro. Em 2000, levou para casa os principais prêmios da cerimônia: Melhor Drama, Melhor Ator de Drama e Melhor Atriz de Drama, sem falar no prêmio de Melhor Atriz Coadjuvante. Sem dúvida a maior concorrente da série no ano, era a premiada The West Wing, porém, o prêmio ficou mesmo com James Gandolfini.</p>
<p>Na categoria feminina parecia certo que o prêmio iria para Sopranos. A verdadeira questão, era para quem: Edie Falco ou Lorraine Bracco, que interpretavam Carmela Soprano e Dra. Jennifer Melfi, respectivamente. No fim, melhor para Falco. Ainda em 2000, o show levou outra estatueta: a de Melhor Atriz Coadjuvamente, pelo brilhante papel de Livia Soprano, mãe de Tony, interpretado pela incrível Nancy Marchand.</p>
<p>Com os anos seguintes monopolizados por The West Wing e Six Feet Under, Sopranos acabou levando apenas mais uma estatueta: Melhor Atriz em Drama, de novo para Falco, em 2003, derrotando nomes como Jennifer Garner e Rachel Griffiths.</p>
<p><strong>Cheers</strong></p>
<p><strong><img class="size-medium wp-image-151 aligncenter" title="cheers1" src="http://pedrobeck.wordpress.com/files/2009/04/cheers1.jpg?w=300" alt="cheers1" width="300" height="97" /></strong></p>
<p>Cheers estreou na NBC em 1982 e tinha como ponto de partida um bar de Boston onde um grupo de pessoas se reunia para beber e se divertir. Quase cancelado ainda em sua primeira temporada devido a péssima audiência, os produtores apostaram um pouco mais e Cheers acabou durando 11 temporadas e 273 episódios.</p>
<p>Vencedora de 26 Emmys, a série teve uma bela carreira no Globo de Ouro, sendo a quarta maior vencedora da história da premiação, e responsável pela consagração de Kelsey Grammer que interpretava a personagem Frasier, que eventualmente ganhou seu próprio show. Frasier também teve passagem pelo Globo de Ouro com dois prêmios para o próprio Grammer na categoria Melhor Ator em Comédia.</p>
<p>Os anos dourados de Cheers foram 1990 e 1991. Porém, foi em 1983 que a série ganhou pela primeira vez. Concorrendo com nomes de peso como Loretta Swit de M*A*S*H, Shelley Long não era favorita por ser o primeiro ano de Cheers no evento, mas a zebra rolou e Long venceu, dando a Cheers não apenas sua primeira estatueta no Globo de Ouro, mas a primeira na historia do seriado em premiações.</p>
<p>Em 1985, a série levou um prêmio mais importante: o de Melhor Atriz de Comédia. O engraçado aqui, é que novamente a vencedora foi Shelley Long, já que os produtores resolveram apostar e indicá-la como Melhor Atriz, uma vez que sua personagem havia crescido consideravelmente de importância durante os anos.</p>
<p>Depois de um longo sumiço, em 1990 a série voltou a figurar entre as vencedoras ao levar o prêmio de Melhor Ator em Comédia, faturado por Tad Danson que desbancou o grande favorito da noite, o grandalhão John Goodman, que concorria por Roseanne.</p>
<p>Sem dúvida, 91 foi o grande ano para Cheers no Globo de Ouro que faturou a tríplice coroa: Melhor Série, Ator e Atriz de Comédia. Na categoria de melhor ator, Danson novamente superou Goodman (e Burt Reynolds!) e levou a melhor. Já em Melhor Atriz, a vencedora foi Kirstie Alley por Cheers, ela mesma, de Fat Actress e Veronica’s Closet.</p>
<p><strong>Murder, She Wrote</strong></p>
<p><strong><img class="size-medium wp-image-152 aligncenter" title="murdershewrote" src="http://pedrobeck.wordpress.com/files/2009/04/murdershewrote.jpg?w=300" alt="murdershewrote" width="300" height="225" /></strong></p>
<p>Apesar de ter sido um sucesso em sua época, vencedora de seis Globo de Ouro, série de suspense de maior longevidade da história, e ter tido doze temporadas, Murder, She Wrote sempre foi renegada pela crítica.</p>
<p>Murder, She Wrote era assim: uma série de suspense sobre Jessica Fletcher (Angela Lansbury), famosa escritora de romances policiais que sempre, e por sempre eu digo SEMPRE, esbarrava com assassinatos em todos os lugares que ia. A polícia então começava a investigar, sem muito êxito culpando alguém qualquer, e Jessica não satisfeita com a resolução, dava uma de detetive e resolvia o crime sozinha.</p>
<p>Não me levem a mal, a série era sim muito boa, mas doze temporadas, ou 263 episódios é dose.</p>
<p>Claro que sempre rolava aquele negócio da polícia vir e mandar Jessica largar o caso por não fazia parte das investigações, mas a escritora, acabava conseguindo uma vaga de perita por ter algum fã de seus livros dentro da polícia.</p>
<p>Iniciada em 1984 na CBS, Murder, She Wrote foi sucesso absoluto de público, porém, ao longo de suas temporadas, foi declinando na audiência pelo esgotamento criativo dos roteiristas que até tentaram dar uma nova guinada na série mudando Jessica para Nova York, mas era tarde demais: Em 1994 estreava Friends na televisão e por dois anos “Murder” teve que concorrer diretamente com a comédia. Os índices começaram a despencar até que eventualmente, em 1996, o show deu seu adeus definitivo.</p>
<p>A carreira da série no Globo de Ouro começou em 1985 quando levou os prêmios de Melhor Drama do Ano (derrotando as favoritas Dinastia e Hill Street Blues) e Melhor Atriz de Drama para Lansbury. Em 86, novamente a série fatura o prêmio, dessa vez, deixando para trás Miami Vice e Dinastia entre outras.</p>
<p>Em 1987, 90 e 92, Lansbury novamente ganhava o prêmio de Melhor Atriz de Drama consolidando-se como uma das grandes atrizes da televisão do final dos anos 90. Suas principais concorrentes em cada ano foram John Collins de Dinastia, Susan Dey e Jill Eikenberry por L.A. Law e Dey novamente por L.A Law, respectivamente.</p>
<p>Ao longo de Murder, She Wrote, diversos rostos conhecidos do grande público passaram pela série, dando ao público oportunidade de rever seus atores favoritos da infância e adolescência.</p>
<p><strong>Sex and the City</strong></p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><strong><img class="size-medium wp-image-153 aligncenter" title="satc" src="http://pedrobeck.wordpress.com/files/2009/04/satc.jpg?w=300" alt="satc" width="300" height="199" /><br />
</strong></p>
<p>Sex and the City, também conhecida como &#8220;a série que todo mundo já viu no Brasil&#8221;, estreou em 1998 e teve seis temporadas, terminando em 2004.</p>
<p>Mostrando a vida de Nova York através dos olhos de Carrie Bradshaw, colunista de sexo de um jornal da capital, a série foi um enorme sucesso no mundo todo e foi uma das mais revolucionárias e divisoras de águas da televisão, ao falar tão abertamente sobre sexo. Algo que claro, só a HBO trazia na época (hoje em dia temos outras como FX, AMC e Showtime).</p>
<p>A série, baseada no livro homônimo de Candace Bushnell, focava a vida de quatro melhores amigas de trinta e poucos anos e suas desventuras com os homens, o sexo e a noite nova-iorquina regada a muitos cosmopolitans.</p>
<p>Por ter sido um verdadeiro marco da televisão, foi um arrasa quarteirão no Globo de Ouro: nomeada 24 vezes a premiação e levou nada menos do que oito estatuetas. Em 2000, 2001 e 2002 não teve para ninguém e o programa faturou consecutivamente o prêmio de Melhor Comédia do ano. Na categoria de Melhor Atriz de Comédia, mesma coisa: Sarah Jessica Parker faturou três vezes consecutivas. Durante os três anos, a atriz teve como grande concorrência Calista Flockhart por Ally McBeal e Debra Messing por Will &#38; Grace. Já a série, teve como concorrentes favoritas, Ally McBeal, Will &#38; Grace e Spin City (vencedora do prêmio de 98 a 2000 e em 2001).</p>
<p>Em 2003 e 2004 a série saiu da premiação com um prêmio em cada ano. No primeiro, o de Melhor Atriz Coadjuvante para Kim Cattrall, dona do papel de Samantha, personagem inesquecível na mente de qualquer marmanjo. Em 2004, novamente o de Melhor Atriz de Comédia para Sarah Jessica Parker, tornando-a a maior vencedora da categoria na história da premiação.</p>
<p><strong>All in the Family</strong></p>
<p><strong><img class="size-medium wp-image-158 aligncenter" title="allinthefamily3" src="http://pedrobeck.wordpress.com/files/2009/04/allinthefamily3.jpg?w=300" alt="allinthefamily3" width="300" height="233" /></strong></p>
<p>Voltemos para 1971, um ano após a revolução do formato do Globo de Ouro. A série All in the Family, clássico da televisão, foi vencedora de também oito estatuetas e foi ao ar pela primeira vez em 12 de janeiro de 1971 na CBS.</p>
<p>Baseada na série britânica Til Death Us Do Part, era protagonisada por Jean Stapleton e foi revolucionário em seu tempo por abordar verdadeiros tabus da sociedade como racismo, homossexualismo, liberdade da mulher, estupro, câncer e impotência.</p>
<p>Em 2002, buscando as 50 melhores séries, o TV Guide apontou All in the Family como o quarto melhor programa de todos os tempos e apontou Archie Bunker, personagem da série, como melhor personagem de todos os tempos. Por falar em Archie Bunker, em 1979, a série foi reformulada e simplesmente mudou de nome (!) para Archie Bunker’s Place. Quatro anos se passaram até que foi finalmente cancelada em 1983.</p>
<p>Os oito prêmios aconteceram entre 1972 e 1978, sendo quatro para Melhor Série de Comédia (72-74 e 1978), dois para Melhor Atriz de Comédia (1973 e 1974), um para Melhor Ator de Comédia (1972) e um para Melhor Atriz Coadjuvante (1975).</p>
<p>Em Melhor Comédia, não teve dificuldades para vencer três anos consecutivos. Suas maiores concorrentes foram The Carol Burnett Show e M*A*S*H. Em Melhor Atriz, a concorrência foi mais apertada. Em 1973, Jean Stapleton teve que passar por cima de Carol Burnett e Julie Andrews (ela mesma!). Em 1974, de novo Carol Burnett, e Cher! Na categoria de Melhor Ator, de volta a 1972, Carroll O&#8217;Conner não teve dificuldades para sair-se vencedor, porém, passando pelo talentosíssimo Dick Van Dyke.</p>
<p>Em 1975, a série ganhava seu sétimo prêmio: o de Melhor Atriz Coadjuvante para Betty Garrett que concorreu com Vicki Lawrence de The Carol Burnett Show, entre outros. Por fim, o último prêmio da série no Globo de Ouro: o quarto de Melhor Comédia, em 1978. A concorrência no ano não era tão forte: apenas The Carol Burnett Show já em descenso. Sua verdadeira oponente naquela noite era Happy Days, que faturou o prêmio duplo de Melhor Ator de Comédia para Henry Winkler e Ron Howard (sim, ele mesmo, que como diretor, era um ótimo ator…).</p>
<p>No Brasil, All in the Family foi exibida por apenas um ano, com o título de Tudo em Família. Depois, foi retirada do ar pela censura.</p>
<p><strong>M*A*S*H</strong></p>
<p><strong><img class="size-medium wp-image-159 aligncenter" title="mash" src="http://pedrobeck.wordpress.com/files/2009/04/mash.jpg?w=300" alt="mash" width="300" height="191" /></strong></p>
<p>Criada por Larry Gelbart em 1972, a série era inspirada no livro Catch-22 e baseada no filme de mesmo nome dirigido por Richard Hooker em 1970.</p>
<p>Foi através de M*A*S*H que surgiu o termo “dramédia”, devido ao seu conteúdo parte drama, parte comédia, sem uma linha de segmentação fixa. O programa, produzido pela 20th Century Fox para a CBS, acompanhava um time de médicos e seus funcionários em um hospital de Uijeongbu, durante a Guerra da Coréia. Apesar da sinopse, é visível que a série tinha como verdadeira inspiração, a Guerra do Vietnã.</p>
<p>M*A*S*H não foi inesquecível apenas por seus oito Globo de Ouro, mas também por ter tido a series finale de maior audiência da historia da televisão mundial. A “dramédia” teve 251 episódios e durou onze temporadas, cobrindo um período de três anos de guerra.</p>
<p>A história de M*A*S*H no Globo de Ouro começou em 1974, quando McLean Stevenson levou o prêmio de Melhor Ator Coadjuvante em Comédia. Em 1975 e 1976, Alan Alda levou o prêmio consecutivamente ao derrotar nomes de peso como Carroll O&#8217;Connor e Johnny Carson. De 1977 a 1979, Alda continuou concorrendo, mas sem nenhuma vitória. Os anos dourados estavam por vir: Em uma incrível sucessão de prêmios, Alda levou a estatueta de Melhor Ator em Comédia em quatro anos consecutivos: de 1980 a 1983, sendo que em 82, M*A*S*H ainda consagrou-se como Melhor Série de comédia do ano.</p>
<p>M*A*S*H foi a primeira série da história da exibir um episódio com a narrativa em tempo real. Escrito por Alan Alda, em 1978, o roteiro mostrava médicos realizando uma cirurgia em 20 minutos. No canto inferior da tela, um relógico cronometrava tudo.</p>
<p><strong>Que venham as próximas&#8230;</strong></p>
<p>Bem capaz que esta lista permaneça intacta por alguns bons anos enquanto não surgir uma nova Sex and the City, uma nova All in the Family ou uma nova M*A*S*H. A conferir.</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><address>Avvertenza: la categoria di persone che tende a demonizzare la tv e/o si sente troppo cool per guardarla difficilmente apprezzerà questo post.</address>
<p>Noi umani siamo <span style="color:#ff00ff;">esseri complessi</span>, dalle molteplici sfaccettature e tonalità caratteriali. Ogni singolo individuo è un universo, non inquadrabile né catalogabile come un oggetto qualsiasi. Insomma una<span style="color:#ff00ff;"> rottura</span> di scatole. Da oggi questo blog inaugura una serie di post che classificano sommariamente il comportamento sentimentale di tutte le persone di sesso femminile, secondo i riferimenti di <span style="color:#ff00ff;">cultura pop</span> a cui assomigliano di più. Uno di loro, sei tu.</p>
<p><strong>Parte prima &#8211; Quale protagonista femminile di serie televisiva sei?</strong></p>
<p><strong></strong></p>
<p><img class="alignleft" title="Dana Scully" src="http://www.freewebs.com/earthden/Dana_Scully.jpg" alt="" width="116" height="160" /></p>
<p><strong>Dana Scully</strong> &#8211; Sei intelligente, razionale, monoespressiva. Di sicuro non pianterai grane perché il tuo ragazzo ha dimenticato il vostro anniversario ma in compenso non sei particolarmente in grado di apprezzare un gesto romantico. Ad un anello di brillanti preferisci il nuovo iMac. Dietro il tuo distintivo dell&#8217;FBI si cela una voglia di darla che la metà basta, ma il tizio se la deve meritare.</p>
<p><strong><a title="Susan Mayer" href="http://img.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2007/10_02/Housewives1_468x502.jpg" target="_blank">Susan Mayer</a></strong> (Desperate Housewives) &#8211; Sei una cerbiatta capricciosa e dipendente, del tipo che tiene il muso senza spiegare il perché, visto che se il partner non se ne accorge da solo vuol dire che non merita ulteriori chiarimenti. Usi il sesso come uno strumento di ricatto. Tu metti in cattiva luce l&#8217;intero genere femminile.<img class="alignright" title="Buffy" src="http://images.fanpop.com/images/image_uploads/Buffy-Spike---Angel-buffy-the-vampire-slayer-677664_1024_768.jpg" alt="" width="221" height="165" /></p>
<p><strong>Buffy</strong> &#8211; Esci con persone assurde e finisci dentro storie complicate, mentre cerchi di portare a termine le tue missioni, che siano esse uccidere vampiri o uscire viva da una riunione. Ci mancava anche che venissero a criticarti.</p>
<p><strong><a title="Susan Mayer" href="http://img.dailymail.co.uk/i/pix/2007/10_02/Housewives1_468x502.jpg" target="_blank"></a></strong></p>
<p><strong><a title="Karen Walker" href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2vecYnbyFIw" target="_blank">Karen Walker</a></strong> (Will &#38; Grace) &#8211; Sei la donna dei sogni di qualunque uomo gay e degli incubi di qualunque etero. Completamente fuori dalla grazia di Dio, il tuo vero amore resteranno sempre i Martini fino a che qualcuno non ti manderà all&#8217;ospedale con un cuore spezzato.</p>

<description><![CDATA[I loved this movie! I enjoyed the X-Files television program.  I wouldn&#8217;t say I was a diehard ]]></description>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>I loved this movie!</p>
<p>I enjoyed the <em>X-Files</em> television program.  I wouldn&#8217;t say I was a diehard fan or anything, but I liked it quite a bit.  So when I saw the commercials <em>X-Files: I Want To Believe</em>, I made a note to check it out on DVD, but didn&#8217;t get worked up enough to go to the theatre for it.</p>
<p><em>X-Files: I Want To Believe</em> has virtually nothing to do with the previous <em>X-Files</em> movie.  And it also thankfully didn&#8217;t demand expert knowledge of the television show, either.  A few terse lines of dialogue pretty much caught everyone up to speed.  Sure, there were a few moments for the devout fans, but by and large, anyone could come into <em>X-Files: I Want To Believe</em> and simply enjoy a good movie.</p>
<p>Speaking of which, I just had a great time watching this film.  Mulder and Scully are such cool characters, and David Duchovny and Gillian Anderson have such wonderful chemistry, I just really can&#8217;t get enough of these two on screen.</p>
<p>The plot is devoid of aliens or monsters; rather, it&#8217;s a murder mystery that takes on a slight science fiction element, but nothing supremely outlandish.  The crux of the story revolves around Billy Connolly playing a former man of the cloth who has visions related to missing women.  Scully, of course, doesn&#8217;t believe a word of it, but Mulder, as you would expect, gives Father Joe (Connolly) the benefit of the doubt.</p>
<p>In true <em>X-Files</em> fashion, the movie ends with just as many questions as answers, but hey, that&#8217;s what makes it an X-File, right?  Even with that being said, Anderson and Duchonvy offer fine performances and the movie is well made and very exciting.  Some of the acting is a little below par, specifically in regards to Amanda Peet and Xzibit-yes, Xzibit plays an FBI agent in this movie.  Also, they used the phrase &#8220;I want to believe&#8221; so many times it got to be a distraction.  I got it when it was first said-I caught the connection to the title.  No need to drive it home over and over again.</p>
<p>Instead of trying to create a garish, monstrosity of a movie, Chris Carter and the gang deliver an enigmatic, tense mystery that kept me on the edge of my seat and felt more like a really long episode of the TV show-and that&#8217;s a good thing!</p>
<p>Oh, and by the way, the subplot featuring Scully&#8217;s patient brought tears to my eyes.  Seriously.  If you&#8217;re a parent, keep the tissue nearby.</p>

<description><![CDATA[Looking over the vast array of online fan-run rpgs that haven&#8217;t been updated in years, I came ]]></description>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p><img class="alignright size-full wp-image-375" title="x-files-logo" src="http://vulcanstev.wordpress.com/files/2009/03/x-files-logo.gif" alt="x-files-logo" width="200" height="150" />Looking over the vast array of online fan-run rpgs that haven&#8217;t been updated in years, I came across the only system that could remotely be called gaming in the X-Files universe.  I was singularly unable to unearth an &#8220;official&#8221; tie-in.  Though I did find this X-Files like Savage Home Brew called <a href="http://savage.lythia.com/subpages/conv/files/Bureau13.pdf">Bureau 13</a>.  Though a quick read through of the 11 page pdf, makes it sound more like a cross between MIB and X-Files.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.tccorp.com/site09/tccorp_home.html">Delta Green</a> from what I&#8217;ve read is a modern day setting for the Call of Cthulhu RPG.  Since I do not own this rulebook I am unable to comment personally on how it works.  The publisher claims that it adds a modern setting, government conspiracies, and more mundane horror aspects to their Call of Cthulhu game.  Sounds like the X-Files to me.  If anyone has a copy of Delta Green they&#8217;re willing to loan (or sell cheap) let me know.</p>
<p>How would I add the X-Files to my RPG game?  In my Stargate campaign, I&#8217;d have some Mulder-esque (I know there&#8217;s a recurring FBI agent from at least two episodes) FBI agent tripping over the PCs on Earth.  Either that or transplant the entire X-Files onto a world at approximately 1950&#8217;s tech.  There the agent would be the one to help the SGC team see through the official story from the planet&#8217;s representatives.</p>
<p>Without resorting to purchasing a completely new ruleset.  To play an an X-Files type game you&#8217;ll want lots of government conspiracy, alien and horror threats some of which are real and some of which have alternate explanations.  It&#8217;ll be up to your PCs to determine which is the real evidence and which is not.  Never make things easy for your PCs.  Even with the &#8220;real&#8221; evidence there should be at least one plausible theory of why it&#8217;s not evidence at all.  That&#8217;s how I&#8217;d game out a PC X-Files game.</p>
<p>If government conspiracy can be added to your campaign, then Mulder and Scully could conceivably be added to the mix of NPCs that the party encounters.  As always Savage World stats follow:</p>
