What I've been watching...

Keep thinking I've been and posted on here when I haven't. STUPID STUPID ME.
Here's some stuff I've watched lately.
The Stepford Wives (1975) left me somewhat underwhelmed, it's good for the first part of the film, but I couldn't help but drift off after a while, there's good moments in there but it's nothing special.
The Last Tycoon (1976) was the last film from legendery Communist Witchhunt sell-out Elia Kazan and the only film to feature Robert De Niro and Jack Nicholson, the play ping-pong together no-less, recommend as the film is very interesting, cast also includes Robert Mitchum. Not the best work for anyone involded though.
Watched a fair bit of TV shows lately rather then films, here's some of the shows.
NewsRadio. Decided to re-watch the first two seasons (29 episodes) and got through them very quickly. This show is very, very funny mainly thanks to Phil Hartman (R.I.P.) and Stephen Root, this is the sort of sit-com that proves the laugh track sit-com doesn't deserve to die. Might have to starting rewatching the third series.
Punky Brewster. On the second series at the moment. I think Soleil Moon Frye gives one of the best child performances on a television comedy, she as very realistic movements and emotions that real kids have, good cast, the show is very watchable.
I've watched odd episodes of the original Twilight Zone and All in the Family, and gonna start a rotation thing with Three's Company, Happy Days, In Living Color and Columbo (also Punky and Family and any other show I feel like adding to the rotation)
I'm gonna do a life post later...
