Welcome!

Hello, (or Annyong, in you prefer) and welcome to my blog. This blog is primarily dedicated to television, mostly featuring reviews but I may also comment on certain news items or just provide a commentary on certain things relating to television. You may also see the occasional music or movie review, especially during slow times in television (for instance, as I'm writing this, it is currently the month or so where most summer seasons have ended and the fall seasons are a few weeks away).

The reviews will work on a 100-point scale out of ten. So, thereotically an episode of a show could get anywhere from a 0.0 (very unlikely, in fact, it'd have to be especially atrocious to get anything under a 4.0) to a 10 (which I'm guessing will happen a few times a year). I watch shows I enjoy, so I wouldn't expect many scores to be below a 7.0, which is why I'm going with the hndred point scale, I can be more specific with my score. Certain shows are generally better than others, so the review scores for shows will only be relative to other episodes of that show. For example, an 8.8 for an episode of Breaking Bad would equal a 9.5 of, say...Burn Notice. I suppose I should give a rango of scores and the adjective associated with them, so I will:

0.0-.9- Abysmal, just an absolute tragedy. If I ever have to rate an episode of a show this low, I will probably stop watching the show

1.0-1.9- Terrible

2.0-2.9- Awful

3.0-3.9- Very Bad

4.0-4.9- Bad

5.0-5.9- Mediocre

6.0-6.4- Weak

6.5-6.9- Alright, Not the best but not the worst

7.0-7.4- Fine, a couple of problems, but overall enjoyable

7.5-7.9- Good, just one or two problems, but they don't detract much from the rest of the episode.

8.0-8.4- Very good

8.5-8.9- Great

9.0-9.5- Awesome

9.6-9.9- Amazing, fantastic

10- Spectacular

Here's a quick rundown of shows I'll be reviewing (ones that I already watch, basically): How I Met Your Mother, Chuck, Warehouse 13, Modern Family, The Big Bang Theory, Community, Parks and Recreation, The Office, Supernatural, 30 Rock, Fringe, Breaking Bad, Futurama, and Burn Notice. To give you some sort of reference point on my tastes, my favorite TV Shows of all time include The X-Files, Flight of the Conchords, and Arrested Development, which I have already referenced twice on this blog.

And just so you know, this blog is for an AP Language and Compisition class, hence the AP Lang link on the right side of the page. I've also linked to What's Alan Watching? and IGN TV, as those are the two sites I prominently read tv reviews myself on.

So thanks for reading this introduction and, hopefully, thanks for reading the rest of my blog.
