Top 7 TV Mothers
When we watch TV, one of the things we always pay attention is the mothers on TV. Sometimes these mothers are to some of us the ideal mother. We either want these mothers or we want to be these mothers. We kind of adopt these mothers as our own and envision what our life would be like if they were our mother. I've watched a fair amount of TV myself and there's been a few mothers that I would love to be when I become a mother.

Easter Eggs Hidden in ‘Stranger Things 2’
First off, there are going to be a lot of spoilers, so if you haven't watched this show yet, wait and then come back and view this because these might be some things that you may have missed. But these aren't true, they are just things I noticed, and other people have noticed, but it seems oddly familiar. And everything is just speculation.

'Will & Grace': Reviving One of TV's Greatest Sitcoms
After ending in 2006, Will & Grace is still held dear to many fans (including myself who owns all eight seasons) who watched religiously back in the early 2000s, continue to love watching a single gay man and his straight best friend continue to struggle with the dating scene in New York City.

The Tale of 2 GH Fanbases
"You want the fans to feel something, even if it's anger, it means they are watching!" Anthony Geary, General Hospital's (arguably) most famous alum once said. It seems that those words are echoing around the writer's room these days, as the so-called "Tale of Two Jasons" gets going. The story has fans of the show divided into two camps; the "Billy Miller is Jason" camp and "Steve Burton is the only Jason" camp. By the logic of Mr. Geary, the writers have succeeded in their job, right? Maybe. But writing a soap opera is more involved than making people feel something.

In Defense of 'Will and Grace'
Will and Grace is back ya'll! In case you haven't heard. It's back and funnier than ever. Or at least that's what I thought. Whenever it's on or when I admittedly re-watch the episodes on iTunes I laugh the entire time. It was like my Christmas, Birthday, and Wedding day were all wrapped into one big, hilarious package. Then I found out that I shouldn't be laughing at some of the jokes because they are misogynistic.

I'm Just Gonna Say It!
Now, hear me out on this! I know I'm going to be in trouble after posting this. Big trouble! As in, if-you-see-this-guy-at-the-door-of-the-comic-con-don't-let-him-in kind of trouble. I know what I'm risking, here. My nerd cred is dangling by a thread, but my commitment to the truth of my nerdiness (nerditude?) is far too strong to just let this alone.

Queering Frasier
So, I recently started what can only be described as my sixth or seventh full re-watch of the 1990s-era NBC sitcom Frasier. These last two binges have opened my eyes to something: Frasier is bisexual. There are several overt examples of this and several reasons why Dr. Frasier Crane would remain in the closet, continuing to deny himself all the happiness he desires. First, Martin. He's a lovable homophobe, misogynist, dog lover, and old ass ex-cop. Marty Crane frequently and incessantly rags on both of his sons for being effeminate, and therefore inferior; can you imagine how bad it would have been had they actually been queer? Another reason Frasier might have decided to stay in the closet could be his (albeit limited) celebrity status. The 90s weren't quite as accepting of the spectrum of sexuality as we are today. Let's take a look at the examples pointing in the direction of the queering of Dr. Frasier Crane.

I Am Also a We
Have you ever met someone and right off the bat felt such an immediate and deep connection to them as if you'd known them your entire life, as if you were sharing the same thoughts, the same feelings? Could it be that you knew the person in a past life or could it be that you're both tapping into the collective unconscious, famed Swiss psychiatrist Carl Jung's concept of a universal unconsciousness shared by all humans? He posited that beneath our individualistic unconscious, there exists a universal unconsciousness based on shared human concepts. Might this explain how people from different corners of the world and walks of life can experience a collective longing for the same things at the same time?

'Discovery': Coldly Going Where No 'Star Trek' Has Gone Before
I guess you could say I'm a Trekkie. Although I've never dressed up like a Klingon or member of Star Fleet, nor attended a Star Trek convention, I have seen every non-animated movie and television episode ever made for the franchise. I've been a fan of at least the original series since childhood and have watched and will continue to watch a lot of Star Trek productions multiple times. I guess that makes me qualified to give my opinion of the newest installment, Star Trek: Discovery. To be frank, my opinion is not a particularly favorable one.
