Ep. 92: Reunion
Hi! My name is Terry J. Aman marking my 92nd episode of VideoFuzzy, reporting the progress I've made in cataloging more than 3,000 VHS transfers and digital recordings. My Fuzzy Feature for this installment, titled "Reunion," I talk about the first four entries I found in that 2005 FOX series.
I also share Book Reports on new releases "The Fury" by Alex Michaelides and "The Busy Body," the long-anticipated debut murder mystery by "All About Agatha" podcast host Kemper Donovan. Both are fun reads in very different ways and both come highly recommended.
With my Classic Collection, cataloging discs 1551 through 1575, I officially have fewer than 1,000 discs to catalog in my classic collection. In this set I found the first episode of "The Tonight Show" aired following the news of Johnny Carson's death in 2005. Also, several music videos and late night show clips, Tim Daly's private eye drama "Eyes," and episodes of "Desperate Housewives," "Grey's Anatomy," "Alias," "LOST" and "Fringe," and an "Ugly Betty" where Justin's class elects him homecoming queen as a joke but he turns around and shines the spotlight on his mother.
In my Current Collection I dig into the "Doctor Who" 60-year anniversary specials — and oh yes, there will be spoilers. Also, "Death and Other Details," "Fargo," "Surrealestate," "Feud: Truman Capote and the Swans," "Moonlighting," "Obituary" and "The Floor." In What I've Been Watching, I've taken in the Capitol Shakespeare production of "The Importance of Being Earnest" as well as a couple of movies: "Argylle" and "Wonka." Fun!
TOP TWELVE: Here's a "Top Twelve" episode guide for people looking for a quick read-in on this blog and podcast effort: https://videofuzzy.libsyn.com/about. Enjoy!

Ep. 91: The Prisoner
Hi! My name is Terry J. Aman and this installment marks my 91st episode of VideoFuzzy, reporting the progress I've made in cataloging more than 3,000 VHS transfers and digital recordings. In this installment, titled "The Prisoner," I feature AMC's 2009 remake of that odd late-'60s production starring James Caviezel and Ian McKellan.
In my Classic Collection, cataloging discs 1526 through 1550, I found episodes of "The Closer," "Medium," "Missing," and from Comedy Central, "Drawn Together," "South Park," "Aqua Teen Hunger Force," stand up specials with Patton Oswalt and the year-end wrap-up "Last Laugh 2004" featuring Norm McDonald and Greg Giraldo.
In my Current Collection I talk about the "Doctor Who" 60-year anniversary specials, Kenneth Branagh's "A Haunting in Venice," the fifth season of "Fargo," and "A Murder At the End of the World."
In Video Outreach I found a couple dozen tapes when we were clearing out my folks home and took a moment to enjoy what remained of their media collection. Highlights included a couple of VHS tapes released by regional musician Gordie "Crazy Fingers" Lindquist [Channel: www.youtube.com/@gordonlindquist2958]. Also Branson, Mo., favorites Yakov Smirnoff and Roy Clark, a few movies, Christmas music and other more faith-centered entries.

Ep. 90: Death Rattle DAZZLE!
Hi! My name is Terry J. Aman and this installment marks my 90th episode of VideoFuzzy, reporting the progress I've made in cataloging more than 3,000 VHS transfers and digital recordings. In this installment, titled "Death Rattle DAZZLE," I talk about the third season of hulu's "Only Murders in the Building" with friend and fellow fan of the show Brad Johnson of Pittsburgh.
In Cross Connections I explore principal cast members Steve Martin, Martin Short and Selena Gomez, and trace connections from "24," "Monk," "Alias" and "Accidentally on Purpose." In Fond Reflections I mark the passing of Matthew Perry.
In my Classic Collection cataloging discs 1501 through 1525, I found episodes of "Prison Break," "Kitchen Confidential," "Arrested Development," "Revelations: Omnium Finis Imminet," "The Prisoner," a bunch of commercials for citi (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6PrM2ZxL-tQ), Eclipse gum (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TuOJy3wmngA), Smirnoff Ice (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Hv9V0Nb1lfY) and UNO (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YSaCb2i2ZGo). Also, highlights on my methodology for cataloging detailed through "FlashForward" and "LOST."
In my Current Collection I talk about my viewing of the "Mission: Impossible" trilogy, the live action series "One Piece," "The Umbrella Academy," "Don't Look Up," the fifth season of "Arrested Development," "The Pentaverate," "Vivarium," "Lucky Hank" and "Found." I also touch on the memorial service we held for my dad, that service archived here: https://bit.ly/3s4Qmn3
In What I've Been Watching I talk about movies I saw flying to and from a recent vacation including "No Hard Feelings," "The Prestige" and "Spoiler Alert," closing with a By the Numbers stats update on my cataloging efforts.
