Ep. 39: A Million Little References

Hi! My name is Terry J. Aman and this installment marks my 39th episode of "VideoFuzzy," my twice-monthly progress report on cataloging more than 2,700 VHS transfers and digital recordings. In this installment, titled "A Million Little References," I talked about a musical stage production of "A Christmas Story" we got to that they're running for another week at the FMCT -- go see that if you can, they do a fantastic job.

For my Friday Night Feature, I talked about a fourth season episode of "Doctor Who" called "The Fires of Pompeii" that I really enjoyed. It feels like most of the time when I talk about "Doctor Who" I'm complaining about this or that, so I wanted to just revel in the positives, not least of which this preunion of David Tennant, Catherine Tate and Peter Capaldi as 2-1/2 Doctors, along with a pre-Pond appearance by Karen Gillan as a soothsayer -- outstanding!

In my Classic Collection, along with a bunch of the usual, I discovered episodes of "Terminal City," a strong if unfortunately interrupted performance by George Michael in the first season finale of "Eli Stone," the BBC America counterterrorism production of "MI-5," several first season episodes of "The Sarah Jane Adventures" on Syfy, as well as Syfy's presentation of the 1995 "Ghost in the Shell" Puppet Master anime.

In my Current Collection, I managed to completely empty out my DVR and catalog most of my current collection, up to disc X202. I watched my season 5 pileup of AMC's 10th year anniversary reairing of "Breaking Bad," which figured heavily in the backlog. Unfortunately, this interfered a lot with progress on my Classic Collection, contributing to the lateness of this installment.

Along with "Breaking Bad," I archived episodes on either side of midterm elections from Samantha Bee's "Full Frontal" and "The Late Show with Stephen Colbert" I'll have to go back and catalog properly. I also brought in episodes from season 1 of Netflix original "BoJack Horseman" as rebroadcast on Comedy Central, as well as episodes of "The Good Place," "Superstore" and that ABC production of "A Million Little Things" my friend Jesse Zimmerman talked to me about in Episode 38 and which I was only able to watch three or four episodes of that, but maybe ABC will put the whole thing back on demand at some point. Speaking of missing episodes, I couldn't find the "Doctor Who" season 11 episode "Kerblam!" anywhere, but I think they're planning a marathon from the current season in the run-up to the Christmas episode so ... keeping an eye out. And in other Nerd Shows, comments on "Hacking the Universe" and "How the Universe Works."

Finally, in What I've Been Watching, Ralph and I got over to watch "Ralph Breaks the Internet," which was awesome. Be sure to stay to the end for the preview of "Frozen 2"!

Ep. 38: Shows I'm Not Watching

Hi! My name is Terry J. Aman and this installment marks my 38th episode of "VideoFuzzy," my twice-monthly progress report on cataloging more than 2,700 VHS transfers and digital recordings. In this installment, titled "Shows I'm Not Watching," I chat with Jesse Zimmerman of The Average Movie Nerd blog about, well, shows I'm not watching, including "FBI," "SEAL Team," "S.W.A.T.," "Archer," "This Is Us," "A Million Little Things," "Castle Rock," "Charmed" and the "Magnum P.I." reboot. We also chat a little bit about "Supernatural," which I am watching, but I left it in anyway.

I've been watching a lot of TV lately and have gotten the DVR boiled down into the 25 percent range, with good prospects to get it completely cleared out over Thanksgiving weekend -- just in time to actually start watching "A Million Little Things" because Jesse made it sound amazing. While I have yet to catalog all of this viewing, I have recorded my 200th DVD in my current collection.

All of this has put a crimp in my overall cataloging efforts recently. However, in What I've Been Watching, this past week I took in the eighth season finale of "American Horror Story: Apocalypse," so I shared a few spoiler-y comments on that.

Finally, I gave shoutouts to a couple podcasts I've been enjoying lately: Chris Cooling's "Forgotten TV," and Matt Triest and Jon Waugh's "Damn That Television." I'll include a couple of links in my show notes. Enjoy!

Ep. 37: Feeling Adventurous

Hi! My name is Terry J. Aman and this installment marks my 37th episode of "VideoFuzzy," my twice-monthly progress report on cataloging more than 2,700 VHS transfers and digital recordings. In this installment, titled "Feeling Adventurous," I open with my Friday Night Feature, discussing the pilot episode of "The Sarah Jane Adventures," which turned up in my collection on disc 560. The show, a spinoff from "Doctor Who," aired for five seasons, and while I was in the Who-niverse, I took the opportunity to talk a bit more about "Doctor Who" as well.

Shifting to my classic VHS-to-DVD collection, I found a few episodes of "Eli Stone" and "Medium," and a few frames of an episode of "Samantha Who?" which, since it has not turned up in my catalog before now, may have been lost forever.

In my current direct-to-DVD recordings, I talked about the fourth season finale of "Better Call Saul," the continuing ethical conundrums they're facing on "The Good Place," the pilot episode of the "Charmed" reboot, brief comments on "BoJack Horseman," "Superstore" and "American Horror Story: Apocalypse," and I'm officially done bothering with "Murphy Brown." Enjoy!

Ep. 36: The Podcast That Fell to Earth

Hi! My name is Terry J. Aman and this installment marks my 36th episode of "VideoFuzzy," my twice-monthly progress report on cataloging more than 2,700 VHS transfers and digital recordings. In this installment, titled "The Podcast That Fell to Earth," I open with comments and reactions to the 11th season premiere of "Doctor Who" featuring new Doctor, Jodie Whittaker, in What I've Been Watching.

In my Friday Night Feature, I explore my reactions to a fourth-season episode of "Boston Legal" I found on disc 557, in which Jerry Espenson is accused of sexual assault, Nantucket wants a nuclear warhead and Shirley Schmidt explores end-of-life care options for her ailing father.

My classic VHS-to-DVD collection turned up a scrap of dialogue from a 2007 episode of "The Shield" in which Internal Affairs investigator Jon Kavanaugh is accused of sexual assault by Vic Mackey's ex-wife, which was interesting on a couple different levels. I also found a few more episodes of David Tennant's "Doctor Who," which touched off my renewed call for Whittaker's Doctor to go searching for her daughter.

In current direct-to-DVD recordings, I rip on a few Nerd Shows I recorded, one which appears to have been cobbled together from a couple different programs, and another, "StarTalk" with Neil deGrasse Tyson on National Geographic, which needlessly superimposes a comic talk show structure on advances in scientific inquiry.

In other viewing, I took in episodes of Netflix property "BoJack Horseman" as edited for rebroadcast on Comedy Central, the "Murphy Brown" reboot on CBS, "Superstore," "The Good Place," "Will&Grace" and the season 14 premiere of "Supernatural" -- lots of moving parts on that one.

And shoutout to the script archive hosted at www.springfieldspringfield.co.uk, where I double-checked some of the dialogue I recreated for this recording. Enjoy!

Ep. 35: And the Award Goes to ... Huh?

Hi! My name is Terry J. Aman and this installment marks my 35th episode of "VideoFuzzy," my twice-monthly progress report on cataloging more than 2,700 VHS transfers and digital recordings. In this installment, titled "And The Award Goes to ... Huh?" I depart from my usual format to discuss the Emmys and my complete lack of interest, mainly due to the fact that I can't even see a lot of these shows without some kind of premium cable or subscription service.

In my classic VHS-to-DVD collection, I talk about an episode of Aaron Sorkin's "The West Wing" that showed up around the same time as part of his "Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip." I rip on "Criminal Minds" and "NUMB3RS," and chat about such other shows as "Boston Legal" and "Dexter," which anchors a segue into comments on my current direct-to-DVD recordings of "Supernatural" and then "American Horror Story: Apocalypse."

In what I've been watching I finished season 2 of "The Good Place" in anticipation of the Season 3 premiere this past week, and highlight a viewscreen from the season 1 finale listing the largest contributions to Eleanor Shellstrop's negative rating.

Also, I list corrections going back to March, and determine that I'm just going to correct errors as I encounter them. Finally, one of the podcasts I listen to, "In Our Time: Science," hosted by Melvyn Bragg through BBC Radio 4, has resumed releasing episodes and you can access them here. Enjoy!
