Elton John's Song Nikita for CW's Nikita

http://www.cwtv.com/shows/nikita


  • Do you remember Elton John's song, Nikita? It is a song about the cold war. The song was released in 1985. The song was successful in many countries according to Wikipedia. I think it would be a beautiful song for CW's hit series, Nikita, for one night. Elton John could be a special guess on the show at a club. CW's Nikita is in a time of war also, but only in a different way. I think the song would be perfect for one episode.

Flash Series Ahead of It's Time

Flash was a television series ahead of it's time. When I look at the Flash Intro, it reminds me of the Intro from the Spiderman movie of today that was in theaters. The music theme reminds me of Spiderman, but Flash came before Spidey's movie.

Flash was a DC comic character. I really enjoyed the series for television. I think that it should be aired again for television because super hero movies are so popular these days.

My favorite episode was "The Flash" Twin Streaks. Back then, I don't think I ever heard of cloning. Well, that is what the Twin Streaks series reminds me of. A scientist experimenting got a drop of the Flash blood and made another Flash that wore a blue suit.

A Low Down Dirty Shame Could be a TV Series

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/A_Low_Down_Dirty_Shame
A Low Down Dirty Shame could be a television series. The movie starred Keenen Ivory Wayans and Jada Pinkett Smith. It was a 1994 action film movie. If the movie had been made a television series back then, I believe it would have been hot. Jada Pinkett was very popular back then and so was Keenen. I still believe in them now because they are in a time where there is not much competition on television.

I would love to see Keenen and Jada on television for a series of a low down dirty shame. I loved the movie, and I sure wouldn't mind a few seasons of it. It is said that when someone makes a movie, it should be left alone. I disagree. If someone can make a movie and keep it going, and if someone can make a movie to keep people watching, I say don't leave it alone. Enough is enough when television has enough. Television has gone to the dogs. We need good shows and something more. That is why I say we need A Low Down Dirty Shame. Television does not have enough action, and that is a pitiful low down dirty shame.

The Best of Soul Train

Soul Train was the longest television series I have ever known. It was a great music program that I am sure many remember. I don't know anyone that did not watch it. I loved watching it and the commercial breaks in between. Soul Train is how I learned many dance moves. I would dance so much that my mother would make me sit down. She would say, "It's time for you to stop so much boogaloo (Blues)." Whenever I would go to my grandmother's house on Saturdays, my aunts and uncles and I would watch it together and dance. Our favorite part was the Soul Train line. Check out the Best of Soul Train.

Kato (The Green Hornet TV Series)

Kato is the character from the Green Hornet series. Bruce Lee played this character. This is when martial arts became popular in the United States in the 1960's.  The Green Hornet is a television series that reminds me of Batman and Robin. I did not know the Green Hornet until the Internet became popular with YouTube. There may be many people that may not know about the Green Hornet. Especially the younger generation.

Now there is an upcoming film about the Green Hornet. Jay Chou is going to play Kato. The new Green Hornet and Kato seems totally different than the original. I would say that they are more up-to-date for 2011.

Visionaries: Knights of the Magical Light Cartoon

From the cartoon Visionaries
Do you remember the cartoon, Visionaries? That cartoon really made my imagination go wild. It gave me every meaning of what a visionary could be. It was a half hour television series back in the 80's. There are two groups of knights. They were the Spectral Knights and the Dark Lords. Each character could transform into an animal. Some of the knights had power staffs. The knights without staffs could infuse vehicles with magical powers. I loved watching the Visionaries.

Disney's Zorro

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zorro_(1957_TV_series)
There was a 1957 television series of Zorro by Disney. I love watching Zorro. The stories always hold my attention. According to Wikipedia, the series lasted on ABC up until 1959. Now, that's a lot of series. Seventy eight episodes were produced. There was also four hour long specials aired on Walt Disney between 1960 and 1961. Zorro was played by Guy Williams. He made a handsome Zorro.

Today there is a new Zorro. The new Zorro is Antonio Banderas. The old television series is now made into two new Movies. The movies are The Mask of Zorro of 1998 and the Legend of Zorro of 2005.

Martin TV Series

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:MartinTVcast.jpg
I have all five seasons of the Martin TV series. Every time I watch the last DVD, I get mad. To me, Martin is the best show since Good Times. If they had kept going with it, it would have been bigger than Good Times. I haven't loved another comedy as much as I love Martin.

For Martin, I know that it must have been hard work playing as Dragon Fly, Sheneneh, Mama Payne, Elroy Preston, Jerome, and Otis. If Martin decided to bring the show back, someone else could play some of the characters. However, to me, I don't think nobody can play Sheneneh and Otis as good as Martin. It just wouldn't seem right not having Martin play those two characters.

It was fun watching Gina and Pam. I loved it when Pam would call Martin Short Borardie. I will never forget when Gina's head got stuck between the bed post. I miss seeing Brah-Man climb through the window to get in Martin's apartment. Just when Cole starts dating Shanise, the show ends. I would have loved to see Tommy more with his Father Sgt. Hamilton Strawn. The show could have went on and on. It was a never ending show that ended. I loved all of the special guests too. I'm still mad.

What About a Motown Series?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:Motown_logo.svg

There was a Temptations movie for television in 1998, there was a Jackson movie of the Jacksons for television in 1992, and Dreamgirls in 2006. Motown could have a series of different movies. Motown could be it's own television station. They could also play movies of stars that were not with Motown like the Ray Charles movie and the Little Richard movie. Motown could go on doing great things and keep great music alive.

What Makes Maggie Q a Great Actress


According to Wikipedia, Maggie Q was born and raised in Honolulu, Hawaii. Her father works for the government, and is American of Irish and Polish descent. Her mother works on a golf course and is a Vietnamese immigrant who had come to the U.S. with no money, and could not speak English.

In 1998, she started her acting career in the TV drama House of the Dragon, which was a huge hit in Asia. In 2000, Q made her film debut as Anna in the horror film Model from Hell, and went on to star as an FBI agent Jane Quigley in the action thriller Gen-Y Cops the same year. Her appearance in Gen-Y Cops impressed Jackie Chan so much that she was cast in Manhattan Midnight and Rush Hour 2. She also played in Mission Impossible 3.

What makes Maggie Q a great actress? Well, from what I can see, Maggie really makes her character herself even though she's not that character. Every character I have seen her play makes me forget that she's Maggie Q that I have seen in interviews. Maggie can play just about any kind of female with a personality. She can be sexy, she can be the strong woman, she can be the weak woman, she can be the fighter, and I could go on and on.

Q is really great at playing detective or FBI. In Nikita, she does well playing in the government role. Her father works for the government in real life, so maybe she knows something about government. I do not know what kind of government work her father does. Maybe someday Maggie could do something extraordinary and real to help people and go beyond the fantasies of acting. Who knows, maybe she'll be in the White House someday.

The Cape

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:The_Cape.jpg
There is a new series coming to NBC called The Cape. It is to last one hour. It is a superhero drama series. It is about an innocent cop who had been framed for a crime that he did not commit. He was left for dead after he was caught. The cop takes the law into his own hands by taking the appearance of his son's favorite comic book hero, "The Cape". The special suit that he wears has unique capabilities.



Sounds like a very interesting series. Superhero films are really great. I think they will be around forever. We need Superheros. I think The Cape is going to be a great one coming to our television aired on NBC.

The Legend of Bruce Lee Series

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:The_Legend_of_Bruce_Lee_poster.jpg
There is nothing on television these days. I miss great action films and films that are worth watching. There was a television series titled, The Legend of Bruce Lee. It was 50 episodes long and had been aired since Oct. of 2008. The series aired on the KTFS channel in the United States on weeknights. Well, I never heard of that channel and probably didn't have it. I never got to see the series. It would be nice if the CW Channel could put it on the air.

The Legend of Bruce Lee is the real life story of Bruce Lee played by Danny Chan. He looks like Bruce Lee's twin. There have been critics on YouTube criticizing the actor that he was no Bruce Lee. Of Course, he's not Bruce Lee. Danny Chan is a great Bruce Li. No one so far can do martial arts as fast and as good as Bruce Lee. However, I am thankful for the actor. It's like having Bruce back again, and watching Bruce's biography through a television series is something that should be brought back to television. I get sick of all of the reality television junk. Bruce Lee had an interesting life story, and I know that the series would be nice for television again.

Bruce Lee's daughter, Shannon Lee, was credited as the executive producer. You can buy the Legend of Bruce Lee 2010 at Wal-Mart, but it is not the full series.

The Nikita Series

Maggie Q  plays as a character named Nikita. She is a spy and assassin. Nikita is working to bring down an organization called Division. Division recruits troubled people with a background. Division erases their past lives and makes them spies and assassins. Nikita was a troubled street kid recruited by Division. She was betrayed and was the first recruit to escape to bring down Division.

Alex (Lyndsy Fonseca) is another recruit that who was a street kid. She works for Nikita. Nikita uses Alex to destroy Division from the inside, but Division knows nothing about it.

From what I have seen of the series of 2010, Alex needed a secret little place to communicate with Nikita. Alex communicates in a room full of eyeballs that could easily see what she was doing. Luckily, she never got caught.
