You may have noticed I’ve been a little light on content this week. That’s because I was at a wedding yesterday. I’m still pretty hung over, so here’s an automated double sized post as a present to the bride and groom. One list for each of them of the best weddings in pop culture!

There have been a lot of shows in my life I made special time for. Throughout high school Friday nights were for The X-Files, and Wednesdays for Sliders. More recently Wednesday became Enterprise night, before that moved to Friday. And so help you if you wanted to do anything that conflicted with The Sarah Connor Chronicles. At the moment, most of my appointments are concentrated onto Thursdays, and lets just say I won’t be doing anything on Friday nights for a while.

Ever since the first day of Pascal in 9th grade, I knew I wanted to program computers, and now I do, and it’s awesome! But before that I had a few other ideas for what to do with my life.

I’m still recovering from my “vacation” to the west coast for ComiKaze, and as such I’m a week behind, and last week was a pretty big week. Therefore, I only have a few things for this week. That and a bunch of things I bought for this week turned out to be reprints of old stuff, so all I have that is new is a few New 52 #0’s (Supergirl #0, Justice League #0, and Catwoman #0)

This past weekend I ventured out to my first west coast convention, Stan Lee’s ComiKaze in Los Angeles. I saw a lot of awesome cosplay, and have full video of the Adult Swim “Metal Aqua Coast To Coast” Panel.

I flew out to California for Comikaze expo late Wednesday, so I didn’t get to put as much thought into this weeks picks as I normally would. Being a single adult with no girlfriend, no kids, and lots of disposable income, I tend to waste a good bit of money on dumb stuff. Be it hundred of dollars of quarter priced comics, or just stuff I’ll never really use. Looks like one thing we all agree on is VIP passes are almost never worth it. And college, be it fancy name brand school or something you saw on the TV, there’s probably a better, cheaper way to go to learn what you need.

There once was a time, mostly back in the 80’s and early 90’s, where a TV show had to have a catchy theme that explained what you were about to watch that played under the opening credits, like the Gilligan’s Island theme. And these opening themes were sometimes very long, the various Star Trek themes were upwards of two minutes each! The average runtime of a half hour show (minus commercials) back then was close to 25 minutes. Nowadays, it’s barely 21 minutes, and rather than catchy songs, they go with descriptive show titles like The Mob Doctor or Animal Hospital that explain the premise. Theme songs have given way to just splashy title cards with a show’s title to make way for more commercials and more profit. The last TV show with a truly good theme was Friends, and that’s stretching it. I for one greatly miss them. I went for themes that to this day I can still belt out. Man, TGIF had a lot of awesome songs, I think the only thing I missed was Step By Step.

I had a pretty light week, being as Marvel went a third week in a row with no new AvX stuff, and I had a meeting at work after my lunch break so I didn’t have as much time to peruse as I normally do. However, this week is the start of yet another ‘Zero Month’ over at DC, so I got some of those. So let’s review Black Kiss II #2, Damsels #1, Worlds’ Finest #0, Green Lantern Volume 5 #0 and Lady Death #21.
